Anyone able to fix this for me? Pref someone in Australia

Hi all! First, sorry if I posted this in the wrong section, wasn't really sure where to post it

I have a diablo overthrown statue that I absolutely love! (exclusive version)

The thing is, I had the 2nd head wrapped up in a box and well I guess someone moved the box and it must have rolled around and tiny bits from the hair chipped off and what not.

I took some pics and I was thinking of trying to fix it myself using some e-poxy and paint but then I thought it would be better to pay someone who knows what they are doing to fix it.






If anyone is able to help me out, please contact me so we can work something out!

Thanks

if you want to do it yourself get some Aves, putty up the area around his pony tail. After it sets for a little, carve in the details to match his hair pattern and paint. You can prime it first by masking off the other areas as to not ruin the paint job.
I would also do the same for the smaller broken pieces. If the pony tail is broken in half, i would add a pin in it for security, but from the pic it doesnt look like it is broken in half.
Worst case scenario you just repaint the hair...doesnt seem like a tough gray to paint.

Yeh the pony tail snapped off so I glued that back on, strange enough I couldnt find the broken off pieces in the box, which was odd :/

Sorry I didn't see your post earlier (yep wrong section).
I paint professionally and would be happy to fix it up for you properly, but... I am in the US. Ohio to be exact. If you still need someone and you are willing to ship overseas let me know.
