Recipes

The Next Generation: Lt. JG Worf

toy recipe
AA/DST 7th Season Riker body
AA/DST TOS Kor the Klingon sash
AA/DST 7th Season Worf head

I re-sculpted a resin cast of a 7th season Worf's head, reducing his hair and forehead ridges and removed the ridges that were not present on his nose in the 1st season. I reshaped his beard and than re-painted to add texure. I removed the collar from the 7th season Riker body and painted on the red piping on the neck, shoulder and pant cuffs. I added gold and gold/black rank pips to the new figure. The sash is a resin cast of TOS Kor the Klingon. I sealed the entire figure with a matt clear coat.
