1987 Predator Headsculpt

[Ralph_Sutter]

Hey everyone!

I've been posting in my thread regarding the progress that I was making on my Predator model/head sculpt. You can see the WIP thread here:
https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=104646

Since the head is nearing completion, and getting ready to be printed, I thought I'd make an official interest thread to gauge interest. Here are some images:

Here's an updated image after some feedback regarding the size of his forehead and lower mandibles:

If this is to turn into an actaul production run, I will need at least 30 people to commit per run of the HS (i.e. unpainted, painted, etc.) This head will be offered unpainted, painted, painted w/ dreads, and painted w/o dreads. (Prices to be added soon).

The neck rings will not be included. But the head will fit on both the P1 and Classic necks. So you can reuse the existing rings.

For the dreads, I will be using actual HT Predator dreads, so please ignore the ones in the snapshots!

First round of interest and production, will be for the painted version with dreads.

[Tracker_Predator]

I'm down for a full painted, dreaded head for sure!!!!:yess::yess:

 

[915stag51]

Count mr in for a finished one

 

[Ralph_Sutter]

Thanks guys! Updated the list

 

[Tracker_Predator]

Is it going to come with interchangeable mandibles??

 

[Mr. EcKo]

I'm in Ralph for a full painted dreaded ugly mudafacker

 

[Ralph_Sutter]

Is it going to come with interchangeable mandibles??

I don't think so unfortunately. It would be a lot tougher to make these. I think I might offer different version/expressions in the future (below is an example, because the face is rigged, I can make him do anything):

In addition, I think I might be offering a bio helmet version as well. Where it is actually fused to the head. I know that in this day and age people like to take bios off and put them on, but it would look cleaner if I had a headsculpt where they were fused.

@ Ecko : Thanks man! Added you to the list!

 

[topknot]

Ralph you know I'M in fully painted, and dreaded my brother!

 

[marker2037]

I'd be interested in a painted and dreaded one too depending on final price and stuff, but it looks good so far bro :rock

 

[ArielAleXCo]

I think the forehead is to big. and the mouth to short... look more like in the proportions of corky tacher predator (aka scar predator)

 

[Ralph_Sutter]

@ topknot and marker: Added you guys! Thank you!

@ Ariel: Better?

Def. do not agree that he looks more like scar...

 

[nexus]

I'd be in for a painted with dreds. How much?

 

[Ralph_Sutter]

I'm shooting to keep them at around $ 90-100 each (fully painted and dreaded). Once I figure out the cost for the dreds etc. I'll be able to give a more concrete answer

And thanks nexus!

Last attempt at tweaking the head, looks like this might not be happening due to a sadly very underwhelming response

its not that just bad timing the classic predator came out a few weeks back and lot of people are happy with it great sculpt though

 

[marker2037]

Did you post this in the Alien and Predator section? Might get some more responses.

 

[roninpredator]

I'm interested in a painted one with dreads. Please add me to the list.
thanks
Lem

@ Marker: I did I posted in the Classic Predator Thread, maybe I should make a seperate duplicate thread there as well

[marker2037]
