How about a group commission for a 300: Themistocles-figure? - UPDATE: sculpt done

[Lord Vicious]

Being a big fan of the first 300 movie and the new one (Rise of an Empire), I'm superbummed to have missed out on a HT Leonidas.
That's why I thought it would be great to have a figure of the new poster boy, Themistocles:







So, I wanted to start a commission for a Themistocles, but was wondering if there would be interest enough to make a group commission out of this. We would particulary need a good sculptor to make the head, helmet and sword. And someone who is good with leather stuff, for the rest of the armor...

Who's in?

Pending final and all that jazz. I also wouldn't mind a spare head for a Strike Back bash.

I haven't seen the movie yet (hopefully this weekend), but sure, it would complement Leonidas. Let me know who you have in mind for sculpting and costume tailoring. There are a few talented folks who could probably do it justice.

I'll kill for a Artemesia figure...

Good to hear there is some growing interest for 300 figs.
I'll ask around to find a suitable sculptor and leather master.

More info soon!

Also what about spenser and shocktrooper? Think they would be good options

I would assume hot toys would eventually produce this figure, see as though they have done the first???

I would be really interested in Artemesia. This guy had about as much charisma as my foot.

Not much armour there but the skirt in flexible resin, vambraces and greaves and helmet are feasible, though someone would have to do the head sculpt. Haven't seen the movie yet but the guy with the winged helm jumping on the ship catches my attention

Would be great to see you take this one on. Also need the blue cape. Maybe Caine would be a good choice for the head sculpt.

Heh, nice to know someone feels the same way. Should have retitled the movie "Eva Green vs generic dudes in leather"

Thanks, my other project will have me tied up for a while, so if no other amourer person is available it would be good to have a head sculpt ready and bodies selected

Good news, I officialy have a sculptor for this (headsculpt, helmet, sword...).
Will put up a thread for it...

Pending price I'd be interested in the head sculpt.
