Hi All…

Thanks for the great replies on the Ray face sculpt… I wanted to share where we are at with the [slimer](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/slimer) resculpt. We have changed it a lot since the prototype that was shown at Toy Fair…

Any thoughts so far?

This is still a Work In Progress and the Licensor has not approved this yet, just to be clear 🙂

Tyler

Hey, Tyler. Thanks for sharing. I’m not gonna lie, but it looks like there’s something off on this sculpt. I think it just might be his upper lip and gum line is too high. From the lip to the top of the brows, he kinda almost looks like Foul Phil from The Garbage Pail Kids movie. (The bald on in the middle).

His lips should be meeting just around the same spot as his cheeks begin to end. I also think his folds are a little too wavy when they should be more rounded.

 ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/b/f/bf137c8512d5215141c10a18d03ed4caead3b060.png). I think they’re a little over exaggerated and should be a little more simple. Other than that, everything else looks great. As a consumer, if I saw this in on a store shelf, I probably wouldn’t buy it only because it looks off.

We think it looks off also - And thanks for pointing that mouth thing out - We dont have this sculpt in hand, and unlike Ray where I just did it myself, we are sort of going back and forth with this…

Im going to make a list of revisions - so please- speak your mind!!!

Laughed about the GPK thing too - ha - That movie was AWFUL (saw it in the theaters!)

Hey TH!

I agree with 910, The upper lip is too short for his face and his body should have rolls, not waves. The folds where the arms join the body need to be tapered a bit more.

Tyler, here is a very quick fix I did to the sculpt in photoshop. It addresses some of the fixes that should be made to the sculpt. It’s not perfect but it will give you an idea. I think the lips should even be down a little more than what’s seen in my fix.

The “rolls” are something we are trying to get revised now, and Im making notes of the mouth!

I played around a little more with the picture in Photoshop and I am thinking that this looks a little more appropriate as to what he should look like.

I quickly mocked this up in photoshop (please pardon the rough paintjob!!)

Is this more “[Slimer](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/slimer)”

I like the look of this one.

I think with the improvements, mentioned here it will be perfect.

Awesome - Thanks AJ ..

Im not afraid to admit that I am not a [Slimer](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/slimer) expert, so all the input has been great!!

Tyler, I am actually pretty sick and bored right now, so I did this for you.

Taking in mind the issues and tweaks already mentioned, the above depiction of [Slimer](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/slimer) is a lot closer than what a lot of the licence holders have been getting away with in recent years.

I have no doubts that once tweaked, Slimer’s going to look brilliant. 🙂

Thanks 901!

That reminds me of something [Slimer](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/characters/slimer) - were he a proper gentleman - would have painted and hanging over his fireplace 🙂

One thing I did on the photoshop comp (my version) was tame down the “puppy dog” eyebrows.. Do you guys like that look, or the raised ones better??

I think your modification makes his eyes look closer to how they appeared in the movie.
