Chuck Williams Adam West bust

[Larry]

Ordered this from Chuck Last weekend and received it Friday. Painted it up and got it ready for the cowl I have yet to make.

[Lou Szabo]

Brilliant

[Larry]

Thanks. I know the eyes aren't the greatest but I figure once the cowl is on there they won't be that noticeable.

[Chuck Williams]

WELL DONE!

I look forward to seeing the updates as your project moves forward!!
It's off to a great start!

Enjoy,
Chuck...

[Larry]

Thanks Chuck that means a lot coming from you. When time permits I will get started on the cowl and will probably pick up a shell soon.

That looks really great, Larry! Is that the bust done in rigid foam, or is it the resin?

[Larry]

It's the rigid foam bust.

Chuck, I've always assumed Adam West's eyes were brown. What color is his eyes?

[Chuck Williams]

Green.

I'm not sure if you've ever answered this one, but where did you get the Adam West bust to begin with? That definitely looks like a young version of Adam.
Just curious..

Obviously new to the forum- that bust was sculpted and is available from master artisan Chuck Williams. See post directly above yours for store info...

[Boy Wonder]

Looks Great!

[MattNes]

So it was sculpted by hand? No casting was done? If thats true thats a pretty good likeness...

[Chuck Williams]

Hi MattNes,

Both actually. I had a damaged plaster casting from a low res scan of Adam from the 90's that was sent to me for repairs. See below.
Seems it went a couple of rounds with a bus driver and got chipped and banged up.

After repairing the cast I did a clay pour in the new mold and began the task of sculpting the younger version. Took a while but I got it to a fairly convincing "Adam in the 60's" look instead of "Adam in his 60's" look.
I called it "Youth-enizing" at the time.

Hope this answers your question!
All the best,
Chuck...
