Leaderhead Preview: Adolf Hitler

@odintheking: I know it's not exactly THE right shape, but it's about the closest I can get to it with Poser...


BTW; new previews: slightly modified this time to show the different moods, and an alternate version of the modern era (thanks again to Shiro for the clothing models)

die the dark part brown, hitler wore more of an SA than an SS uniform. Im telling you get M2, and make the beard textures apart of his face, did you download that thing I didnt send you?

I don't think I'll get M2 for this head since I would have to re-do it all over, but perhaps I could make another version later (and I'll probably start making other leaderheads quite soon)
 
Yes, it looks much better now. The hair and beards etc look like they're growing out of him rather than drawn on, Groucho Marx style!

I'm not convinced that Hitler would have worn an SS uniform, though - I think ShiroKobbure's right to suggest brown rather than black. The outfit in this picture seems to me to be typical. Probably just a matter of changing the coat colour. The tie looks good as you have it, with that little pin on it. This should be an impressive LH when it's done.

EDIT - I wondered if Hitler really had such green eyes, as represented in this (obviously official and idealised) portrait, but it's hard to find out. All the photos I could find that show his eyes clearly enough are black and white. But they look quite dark there, so it would make sense to suppose that they were brown or hazel (as you'd expect from his hair colour).

About Masaryk clothes:
In Ancient era he may have similiar clothes like Brennus from Celts,In Middle age like Charles. Only specific is his hat in industrial/modern era may be his hat, which named by him, its on the photo which I send in previous thread. Combination of military cap and hat...Many people in Czechoslovakian cities wearing these caps when Axis occupied Czech land..
 
In the other I dont know colour of his eyes, I think he may have combination brown and green...
He looks very good.
 
Okay, I've changed his suit colour for the modern era to a mustard tone, as I've seen in several other pictures. I'll very probably add the little pin to his tie later.
I think his eyes are going to stay this way, hazelnut coloured, as it's at least quite a "neutral" tone (he might have blue-ish/green.ish eyes in most official portraits, but it might be some kind of idealized image, as Plotinus said... his hair is also a bit less dark in those pics as well, so I wouldn't take them as a trustworthy guide)
 
Well, overall I like the portrait :)

I have a coupla timing concerns though:

1) the background of ME doesn't really look appropriate. Ok that the ME in the game actually span from ME to Renaissance and even later, but still... I don't know but that church doesn't give me the idea of a Middle Age Germany.
2) In the game, Hitler would have lived in the Industrial Age (Fascism, Panzers, Theory of Relativity, etc), not in the Modern one. Therefor I would give him his typical mustache in this age, and maybe make up an original one for the modern age, or leave that if you like.

1 - Well, I could try another picture for the mid ages... I wasn't really convinced as well by the background I used, but since no one complained (until now) and given the few images I could find of that time (that one, and another I'm going to use now), I decided to leave it this way.
2 - Well, in the game, Hitler could have also lived in the modern era (Nuclear Power and Rocketry come to my mind), so he's actually in the borderline between both eras, that's why I decided to make him modern, though I could also make an alternate version, not right now (I'm posting the LH tonight), but perhaps in a couple of days
