So I'm at work, but it's 2 1/2 weeks until BrickCon, so all I can think of is Lego. I was puttering around on BrickLink and was thinking about using Exo-force heads for my elves, just to make them slightly different in appearance from humans. Can anyone take a pic of an Exo-force head with elf hair on it to show whether or not the wide-set eyes get covered by the hair? I'm talking about this style of head, for those who don't know:  Also am interested in what people think of this idea, if it works with the hair. |

I'd gladly help, it seems like a good idea, but which elf hair? The long or short ones?

Was mainly thinking of the long hair but both types would be good to know. Honesty as many varieties as possible, since I have most of them and would use as many as I could to get some variety.

You've possibly answered this by now, but no they don't cover the eyes. Knew I'd seen someone else do it, this wasn't the picture I'd seen but found this example on flickr.  Wood Elves by swindeller, on Flickr |

I don't have a picture, but thw long hair works as well. You've probablt figured this out now, though.

Thanks for the help, guys! I checked out a bunch of types when I got home, and they all seem to work pretty well. The only one with minor coverage is the rubbery Elrond-style that has the two strands that come down over the front sides of the face, but even that is not much different than the hood in Andhe's pic, so I think it works.
What do you guys think of the look? Good idea to use these?

As far as yellow goes, they look great - as a fleshie user, however, I cannot in good conscience suggest you use them  |

I just ordered a few more of these heads as well as some of the new Friends Elves hairpieces. I'm hoping to start assembling a good-sized contingent soon!
