Description
Part of the Star Wars Mythos line of statues from Sideshow Collectibles [link]This 1:5 scale statue was sculpted nearly two nears ago, now. Designed by Joe Allard and Tom Gilliland, this piece is meant to represent Obi-Wan in the years before "A New Hope", but after "Revenge of the Sith". This gave us an opportunity to imagine the life of Kenobi as he became the reclusive, mystical figure of Tatooine.
It also allowed us to have fun imagining both Ewan McGregor and Alec Guinness as the character, but at different ages than we have seen them in the films.
The statue was sculpted in castiline and wax, with a sculpey base. Some of the lightsabers were sculpted by hand, and Tusken Raider weapons were output from digial models (which is why they look clear).

This is truly incredible work. Every time I see your work, I am in awe of your talent. It's astonishing how you can get the likenesses to accurately. And while yes, they don't look exactly alike, your sculpts have shown Ewan and Sir Alec to share a resemblance, especially as you get them closer in age in these sculpts.

I viewed your pics and WOW! The textures, minute details, and even the little odds and ends slung over his back make this piece just come to life. I can actually see him trudging the deserts,cape blowing in the wind. And the likeness is remarkable.
