Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

What happens if we cant get to 20 cause no one wants a necked version?

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

I'm interested in the neckless one. Better if you just open up 20 neckless spots and forget the neck versions IMO.

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

unpainted neckless versions is possible?
thanks

 

[Hidden Jitsu]

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

is there any neckless spaces left?
If not is it possible to cut the neck off without effecting the sculpt?

Agreed:exactly:

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

Folks doing Evil Dead 2 are gonna be using a muscle body 9 out of 10 times, so that's why there isn't the same level of interest in the neck sculpt.

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

Anyone agree his face be thinner and less muscular?

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

I think that's true, but based on what I've seen folks prefer an idealized, exaggerated Ash to something 100% screen accurate for that film (where he was fairly thin and comical looking). I think Rocco's is pretty spot on, but since he doesn't look as chiseled and heroic I don't think folks are as into it.

Also keeping in mind that folks will be using TTM-19s or the equivalent, it makes for more aesthetic balance.

Looks great. But I kind of want to see a more screen accurate one rather than the idealized version you see everywhere.

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

Hey guys,

So, I removed the necked version and increased the cap for the neckless version 30 people. For the people that wanted to order 2, I am going to limit the headsculpts to one per customer for the initial run.

@ krec9, the Fiend and karamazov80: I actually do not think the sculpt needs to be wider, and I'm not saying that because it's my own work. The human face is very strange, and it tends to look bigger when it is all one solid color. Please keep in mind that your are looking at an unlit/3D image of a sculpt. In addition, a lot of the reference images are shot with Sam Raimi's crazy camera mm and with Bruce having his mouth opened more than in my expression (like in krec9's image on page 2). This further adds to the length of the face.

I took the liberty of overlaying the below seen image of Ash (which is taken from the Evil Dead II) onto my sculpt, without altering any of the sculpt's proportions. So it literally is a 1:1 projection.


Also, with all due respect to Rocco's work (and I am a big fan), I truly think his Ash is far from perfect. If it was, I would not be doing this

As you can see (and please bear with me here, I just did it very quickly and sloppily, they almost match identically).

Love what you did there I wouldn't mind having this version great work .

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

lol, that's the thing... I didn't actually change the sculpt, I just projected a picture onto it.

Lookng at it like this, theonly major thing that stands out to me is his hairline on his forehead. I need to straighten it out and raise it.

Also in that shot his hair is wet from the blood and black water so his hair shouldn't be that puffy if based on that image.

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

The hair is still very rough

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

You're the artist, so do what you think is best! I think it does look very good as-is, very similar to that shot you show, and I really shouldn't second guess here while you're working on it, so apologies for that. His face seems to look pretty different to me in different shots, in part because he has different expressions, but also no doubt camera angle, lighting, camera distortion, etc. Sometimes he does look quite thin though.

I think Rocco's sculpt captures his essence/likeness very well, as does your in-progress one, Caine's version, and Beto's in-progress one. But since he looks so different in that film at different times I think there is room to capture one look or aspect more than others.

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

Thank you sir You have my personal assurance that I'll get it as close to perfect as I can get it

Re: 1/6 Evil Dead II - Ash HS

Go ahead and throw me on the list if this turns out as good as its looking so far I will be kicking myself for not getting it
