Re: [bbkill] Bond Deckard 2nd run

Thanks so much guys for all of your positive comments it means a lot to me! This is my favourite paint job and I think it came together because I've painted Craig a few times and almost had it all scoped out in my head before I did it. Plus this head is near perfect. I'm a huge supporter of it and in my opinion it's in the 90th percentile of likeness and all we have seen before have only been 70th at best. DID being 60th.

I've had a few people ask me to do theirs and I usually resist paint job commissions and I'll tell you why. The first reason is I want to be confident that I can get the same results each time. With this head I am, secondly it's time. Each head takes me about 8-12 hours to paint, I'm such a perfectionist and my time is super limited and often times in my spare time I do freelance art direction work on top of my demanding full time job. My hourly rate for that is 100 dollars. So this is why I kind of only paint for myself. It breaks down or buying my own spare tme! That being said I love Craig. this head, and the guys who pmed me have been guys I really like and means so much they asked, If I can get about 5-8 guys lined up, for a run it would make it easier. If you are comfortable with the 100 dollars commission fee plus shipping (EDIT: per head not hourly, lol can you imagine? If you'd be down for that I'd tell you to save the money and get a couple therapy sessions :rotfl) I'd do a run if you all understand that I might not get them all painted for at least a couple months, but maybe sooner it depends on my work schedule.

I have a list of three so far, if you asked I know if I get two more interested ill open up an interest list on the customs section and cap it at 8 for now because I know I couldn't handle any more than that for a little bit.

And just for this head, I don't know if I'm gonna be satisfied with my deckard, I'm going to try one soon.

If we don't get there, trust me my ego won't be bruised in the slightest I'm just sorry I couldn't help out those who asked, I know sourcing painters is a pain, it's exactly why I taught myself how to paint :slap

I get to paint it again as Chu is sending a replacement for the ear being damaged during shipping. Great guy and amazing sculpt.

Ok final pics of this tweaked Bond sculpt. I fixed the ear as someone offered to buy this sculpt from me already painted. Added blonde and followed Rays tips. Thanks Ray!

Got my Deckard head today, looks awesome, can't wait to paint it, great job Chu.

Any chance of an Indiana Jones head sculpt?
Or a Sean Connery James Bond sculpt?

I would be in for both of those sculpts if offered :pray:

Got my first run heads today and they are unscathed by shipping. I'm still in for the second run. These represent the best zBrush effort I've yet seen. Fine work, Chu. :bow

How did I not make the 2nd run list for Deckard when people who posted and emailed after me did.:dunno:dunno:dunno
 
Re: [bbkill] Bond Deckard 2nd run List Closed

Picked up my sculpts this morning. Wow. Just wow. The detail is amazing. The sizing looks fine to me, though I'll have to throw them on a body to be sure.

Nice work once again!

Chu I don't see my name on the list for the 2nd run of Bond, but I did get your email about being added
 
Re: [bbkill] Bond Deckard 2nd run List Closed

Just wanted to post up what I did with my head sculpt, needs a darker hair color and I feel he's too far too pale for my liking, so I'll try and touch it up again or I'll strip it and start again with a better base color, but as it's my first time doing this not a bad start I guess...
