I don't know who it is , but I can tell that it's a damn fine sculpt and probably does look like whoever it's supposed to be .
Have not a clue who " Dexter " is . . . can't you just tell us ? I'm not hip , don't watch TeeVee or go see movies .

thanks guys!
well, CB, Dexter is the main character from HBO's hit series... Dexter! It's based on novels by Jeff Lindsay and tells the story of a guy who works for the Miami PD as a blood splatter analyst during the day, and who, at night, turns into a serial killer whose favorite preys are...serial killers! It's witty, full of suspense, and it shows how a guy who is at first "just" a monster slowly turns into an almost likeable person. that's the genius behind the story! You should hate this guy, but in the end, you fear for him! My advice? Catch a rerun or watch it online. The first season is great, the second awesome, and so far season three is just inferior (I'm about midpoint into the season)!

Well haven't seen the show 16k, but I did a quick google search on it and I'd have to say it looks spot on to the images I found. Well done.

Oh yeah, that TOTALLY looks like Dexter !!! I knew it from the first picture!!!
I actually got a Dexter headsculpt off of ebay, I was hoping to make one too. Looks pretty good, and the quality is nice, if anyone else is interested. Ebay link to Dexter Headsculpt

Thanks Sabine and Ffolkes! I'm glad you recognized him! He's a custom I've wanted to do for quite some time. A guy on the SFF bord keeps saying
he'll do one (he's a great sculptor!) but I got tired waiting and tried my own, so I'm glad he's not too bad!
Well, MainlyCustoms, I have the Ada sculpt too! I was slightly disappointed. The picture looks better than the actual thing. I think the nose is too long and too thin. Yet, I've seen a painted one by another customizer, and properly painted, it looks very good, so I'm eager to see yours!
BTW, if you want a repro of Dex's laminate card, tell me, I have a picture of the prop on my hard drive!

Does Showtime know about this?
This is so way cool. How do you say/write this is so way cool in Francais? |

Tres chic, mon ami. I don't remember much from French class, but the most important phrase is "Ou est les toilets?" Everything else you can get
by on with sign language without looking completely foolish!

Not bad, but, I think he looks more like Rich Hall, a comedian I used to see on Whose Line is it Anyway.
CHEERS! |

Haven't seen the show. Don't really watch Network televsion as most if it is, IMNSHO, KRAP.
So this miscreant, "Dexter," is in effect a homidical manaic who turns into an extreme Vigilante. Is that about the size of it?? At least tell me that he didn't start out killing innocents in Season One before his "job" caused stray cranial voltage to fire off converting his blood lust into this desire to kill killers "instead?" 
================== PS: I feel your pain about Ada Chan. I just got two of her sculpts in for a project. One is VERY impressive. The other looked "OK" in her on-line picture of it, but now that its here it really doesn't look anything like the individual its supposed to portray... 
==========================================
