I've joked about doing head swaps in 10mm but never attempted it. Perhaps some people have?

What might be slightly easier would be to graft on not just a head, but a head-and-shoulders. If Pendraken could be persuaded to produce a range of generic busts, it might open up a lot of possibilities.

I think Nik is the expert on generic busts

I've done transplants at the waist with fair results. Fussy job, however.

Ive recently converted an Argentine carrying a MAG with an Argentine head from the special forces,wooly hat.Very fiddly as i dropped the head at least 4 times and was lucky to locate it again.I used nail clippers which shot it off in a random direction. Gluing the head to the torso was tricky as well as i didnt pin it and super glue was watery.Learned some lessons and i suppose i can only get better ;) I got a small hot glue gun for xmas which im going to try which might let me manipilate the head before it sets.

Generic lack of busts, judging by Keira.  :P
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

I did (or tried) a few head swaps for my Doctor who sculpts. It's almost impossible to pin, my best advice is to make a neck with middling putty. Dampen the head and (using tweezers) press it onto the neck then take it out again. Once the putty is dry glue it into the neck.

Maybe try it for your doctor who paints, or the one who plays the dulcimer.
