I think we need to get an interest thread for Skinny Steve going too now :rotfl

Just a quick question - how many people were interested in Bucky's Howling Commando uniform? I believe from memory you were interested, guy? Anyone else? I'm still working on the outfit and need to think about ordering belt and boots buckles sets, and buttons for the jacket, so I'd like to get a rough number of who's interested so I don't have to pay two loads of shipping :lol
 
Waruna has finished the sculpt! :panic:

Waruna will start a proper for sale thread soon outlining the details of casting, deposits, etc. If everyone can get their deposits in by the end of the month (December), Waruna will have the casts ready by the end of January!

The second sculpt is delayed however - that won't be happening until around March, just due to time constraints. He's a busy man, after all!

Thanks guys for your support on this project, we're getting there!!
 
That's looking good! :) So will it still be a bundle for the two sculpts? Will the deposit be for both?

Can't wait for the sales thread!

Yes there will still be a bundle, not sure about the deposit - Waruna will work it out and advise it in his sales thread, so just keep an eye out for that :)
 
Waruna posted that preorders are open and he's accepting payments now. https://m.facebook.com/notes/art-of-waruna-weligamage/bucky-barns-first-avenger/1864955387082612/

Sadly there's nothing about a bundle with the other sculpt. :(

I've spoken to Waruna about that earlier, we were discussing all evening about it. He's going to make a thread here on SSF so, by all means, follow the facebook thread, however the same information will be conveyed on the SSF thread when he makes it, including the bundle.

The bundle will be $140 shipped, so if you want the bundle, this current sculpt will work out cheaper. I don't have anymore details than that but I'll encourage Waruna to do the thread for everyone here asap. I'd do it myself, but I'm not premium so I can't sell things on the boards.
 
The sculpt looks great, but I think I'm still going to hold out to see the more stern expression sculpt. Congrats to those that were in for the smirk sculpt though!
 
I seriously don't get how there's so little talk in this thread after Waruna finished the first sculpt and put it up for preorder. Not to mention that there's only 1 reply in the preorder thread .... Where is everyone?

Are people suddenly not interested anymore? Do you prefer the serious expression? You gotta speak up guys. Waruna spent lots of time on this sculpt because a total of 15 people voiced their interest and as Kiki said, even offered to do a second head sculpt with a different expression. So far only 5 of the people interested have reacted ... that's kinda disappointing tbh.
 
I'm waiting for the serious expression. :) And i'm also kinda waiting to see how the Howling Commando outfit goes though. The smiling sculpt is DAMN impressive though.

Thank you for responding Guy!!

As for the Howling Commando outfit, it's coming along nicely IMO, but with Christmas I've had some delays with getting some materials I need. However, I have buckles now! This might not sound as exciting for anyone else as it is for me, but they're so TINY :lol I wasn't sure I'd be able to find them! I've just been remaking the pants in a different material, and they sit a lot better now than the first version. First version of the belt is done (however I glued the buckle on the material in the wrong place - inaccurate to the real outfit, so I need to remake) and I'm working on the over shoulder holster, but unfortunately I need to wait for the 1/6 pistol to arrive before I can finish it so it's the right size.

I can promise the base outfit prototype (jacket, pants) will be done by, or before, the end of January. I would love to do the over shoulder holster and the boot spats too, but with the spats I need to track down a softer vinyl or leather so it sits better over the boots, and again the holster I'm just waiting on the gun for the shape.

Edit: I took this just for you, Guy :lol The jacket is the old version, so ignore the unfinishedness of it :lol The pants are the new fabric, but not the finished version either, and you'll see the belt there too. Basically, that gives you an idea, but it's still a work in progress. Please, I'd love it if you PMed me with any thoughts or feelings about it, or ideas, anything. I really want to do right by you and myself with this (which is why it's taking so long!)
