Last I heard from IDM is that the final version of the clothes, mags and hoverboard will be presented pretty soon.

A full figure version (with unpainted head sculpt) will be offered as well for those interested, with a nice custom box and everything

Is this also available for people on the waitlist for shoes and hoverboard (please also add me to that waitlist)? I would definitly be interested in a full set incl. Everything from top to bottom...ray:

Finally finished the paint on Marty McFly's hoverboard and Nike Mags. The paint on these was very difficult to pull off - especially on the shoes because there was so much detail with the logos and the texture of the soles. The blue splattered texture in 1/1 scale was sprayed on. At this scale, every single line and dot had to be hand painted one speckle at a time. It was very time consuming and it took me about 8 or so hours just to paint up one set. The hoverboard required much more precision because of the hard lines. In the end, I think it was well worth it. After all the decals were put on - which is another task in and of itself - they look phenomenal. Check out the final pics below. He's close to getting finished. I just need to finish casting the hems on his jacket so Jen can finish the revisions on the jacket left.

The paint for the hoverboard is $40 and paint on the pair of shoes is $60. If anyone wants it painted, please let me know and just add the total to the balance as noted before. I'll paint them in batches of 10-12 sets each time. To avoid damage to the paint, I will just paint them only and include the decals separately when shipping. That way it has more time to cure and avoid damage to the paint and the decals. The decals are very simple to put on and just requires a tweezer and it's self explanatory to put on. You guys can use the reference pictures too, but it's really straightforward.

**** that is amazing. I will definitely have you do the painting. Are we still cool about using your photos for Collection Stash? I want to get these catalogued.

Yup, definitely use the photos.

Thanks for the kind words guys. These were pretty hard to paint. Especially those shoes! The textured areas was tough because I had to paint each of those strokes/speckles on by hand. I tried to airbrush it on at first but it didn't look good at all. Painting it on by hand looks much better, although they take dramatically longer.

So the balance is $74 plus the $30 decal set comes to $104.

Just sent my balance payment. Thanks!
They came out great. :duff

John! That's looking amazing! Bravo my friend! A work of art...those MAGS look insane!

Re: [IDM Customs] Future Boy Part2 Mags,Hoverboard,Outfit Set *HOVERBOARD WITH DECALS

I may regret this, but I think I'm gonna try and paint those shoes myself! Only thing that needs painting on the hover board is the red and black on the bottom, correct? Your paint work is excellent there.

Re: [IDM Customs] Future Boy Part2 Mags,Hoverboard,Outfit Set *HOVERBOARD WITH DECALS

So let me try and get the math right, for those that have paid the deposit on the Mags and Hoverboard, in order to get the decals and paint for both, need to pay $204 to cover the totals?

Re: [IDM Customs] Future Boy Part2 Mags,Hoverboard,Outfit Set *HOVERBOARD WITH DECALS

Got the payment Entropy. Will send you the tracking info once it goes out.

Thanks Pajji!

That's correct iMan.

Karamazov, the shoes are definitely tough to paint. The texture and color is hard to nail since there are two tones of grey on the shoe. There is also a grided texture on the soles and of course the shredded blue speckles is the hardest.

The hoverboard is probably a little easier. There is the red and black parts plus the darker pink in the middle. The tricky part is to get the lines flush since the decals doesn't cover it up so you'll have to make sure the lines are really crisp or it'll show once the decals come on.

Sounds intimidating, but. . .what's life without a challenge now and then? :rock

Re: [IDM Customs] Future Boy Part2 Mags,Hoverboard,Outfit Set *HOVERBOARD WITH DECALS

I can't agree more. That's how you get better as practice makes perfect. Plus, it's less work for me.
