Artist's Comments

Here's a preview of a Blackbeard the Pirate sculpt I did with Sideshow Collectibles. They've JUST shown some photos in preparation for solicitation. They did a beautiful job with paint and fabrication. Very cool looking, evil bastard![link]

Anyway, I'll post some more photos in the next few days. This one was based on the myth/legend of Blackbeard, which is all vague and sparse. It was challenging! I was shocked Sideshow would trust me to tackle this guy. I'm not normally approached for anything other than a likeness.

This is part of a 1/4 scale statue. Sculpted in various waxes. more pics to come later.

enjoy! And be sure to check out the great work everyone did on the final statue![link]

The pose, expression and outstanding detail work of Blackbeard-Sideshow by ~trev-solo is flawless in its construction. Small details such as the faint scar on the left hand side of the sculpture, along with the weathered skin and angry stare make for an incredibly realistic piece of work. (Featured by ^Thebuild)

Trev, this is simply astonishing. My warmest congratulations mate!

Generally I don't like the paint jobs because I feel they often screw up the sculpt but in this case its perfect!

Wow. Just wow, wow wow. Great work!!! The painted version looks dy-n0-mite as well. Great Sculpt!

Awesome work. Love the facial expression.
On a side note, would you happen to know if Sideshow Collectibles (or anyone for that matter) ever did anything relating to the film Equilibrium? So many good poses and I can't find anything.
