Eli Wallach

I think out of the 3 characters, finding the clothes for the Ugly character will be the easiest. They are not as iconic compared to the good or the bad outfits. Primarily it consists of a brown jacket and trousers.
















Essentially I need:
  • Brown Jacket
  • Brown/green trousers
  • White/cream shirt
  • Plain boots
  • Belt
  • Rings if i can find them

I might just use the film to reference the rings seeing as i'm not entirely sure i'll be able to find replicas. I had a quick look to no avail.











In my opinion the most distintive features of Eli Wallach's face are his scowl and his large, wonky nose. The highlight in this picture clearly shows the nose leaning to the right.

His eyes are actually quite small compared to the rest of his face and don't quite fit the average proportion of the width of the nose. This is good to know as it will help with the sculpt.

I managed to get hold of the blu-ray version of the film so at least now I have some high quality facial reference seeing as that is the one part of this project I can't really source from life.
