Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter dolls look more realistic with these repaints

An example of a toy company creating realistic-looking figures is Hot Toys. Well, doll painter Noel Cruz steps it up a notch by making these realistic dolls and figures even more realistic by repainting them. The dolls are already pretty pricey, but if you want Cruz to do a commission, the 12 inch dolls start at $1000. He does a lot of different types of repaint, but these Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean and Twilight ones are simply marvelous.

I even love the step-by-step process on the Harry Potter one where he removes the original paint and repaints a better version.
