@<BEASTMASTER> can I put deposit or full payment for spot?

 

[<BEASTMASTER>]

No need just yet as I still need to work out the costs. I'll make sure you and everyone that has shown interest get a spot.

Hey all, so I've been looking into the JX Toys body. I found that the chest is way too puffed out when fitting the Present toys outfit to it, not a huge fan of that body. After trying out a few I found that the best body is the VTS Toys with the muscular arms. Has a nice flatter chest and feels closer to Max's build. However after testing with a previous print I made a long time ago it should still fit the VTS and the JX, as well as Hot Toys Solo etc.

Here are the Present Toys clothes on the VTS body and an example of one of the bodies. I found that Present Toys fitted their outfit to a ridiculously wide shouldered body, though the fitting still looks ok on more narrow shoulder bodies.

I'll start the process of removing the neck from the sculpt and prepping fittings.

Thanks Beastmaster, that's great news. I was planning on using the Hot Toys Han Solo body for my Max so it's good to hear that the sculpt will fit that one too.

 

[Pierreperezalonso]

I have the PremierToys I hope it will fit together well.

I assume the sculpt will fit on the Present Toys Mad Warrior body also , yeah ?

 

[borgisbor]

That VTS body looks great

I'm not sure as I don't have one. If you can measure the neck hole diameter of the head I can find out. Though there are much better bodies out there you can swap out.

I did some rough 3d scans of bodies. Left is VTS/DAM, middle JX, right HT Solo. the necks are quite similar in size, JX tapers in a little. I'm going to try to make the neck hole a tight fit to avoid any gaps across different bodies. This way you can sand off however much you need to depending on if your chosen body has a thicker neck. I think it's better this way as gaps between the neck and head would look pretty ugly.

Side view of the bodies. You can see how puffed out the JX chest is in comparison

Quick head size test fitting

 

[corellianfive]

which model of VTS body is it that you're using for modeling?

 

[<BEASTMASTER>]

It's the Stallone Judge Dredd which has the more detailed muscular arms. Though they all have the same chest/neck mould so can just swap out the arms with more suitable muscle ones.

Looks great. Can’t wait

 

[doomcrafts13]

Cant wait for it, got whole setup ready just need your sculpt

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

Thanks for all this research on bodies. Don’t think anyone else has ever gone to this length to ensure a good outcome.

 

[Pierreperezalonso]

So interested!

Is this Mad Max head sculpt still going to happen??? I am interested in one.
