Re: [IDM Customs] Uncharted Drake and Sully (Painted Sculpts Pg 1)

can i be put on the list please and how much is the deposit?

Added you Hidden Jitsu.

The price is still pending so we won't know what the deposit is until the figures are complete. I've added quite a few things to the list since as well as some surprises.

I'll update the thread and let everyone know once final pics are finished and we get the final costs and who's still on before taking deposits.

I also updated the first page with the shoes sculpt. I have more stuff being done and should have some photos very soon.

Re: [IDM Customs] Uncharted Drake and Sully (Journal Finished Update Pg 1)

Drake's journal finally finished! This is probably the hardest thing Jen and I have worked on so far. We had to build most of the pages from scratch.

I have to admit that scaling something down is not as easy as you might think. Jen and I have been working on Drake's journal for almost three months and we were close to pulling each other's hairs out because it is so insanely difficult to get everything together. Not only that, we faced challenges every step of the way though. The first challenge was to find all of the pages of the journal that wasn't taken directly from the game. We had to rebuild almost every single page from scratch. With the help of some fellow forum members, we finally completed our higher resolution version of the journal.

Then doing a first print test, we realize that there is no way to properly scale 1/1 size paper down so it's thin enough to be a 1/6 scale journal. There are almost 50 pages to the real journal. But binding even 25 double sided pages down to 1/6 scale still makes it look like a giant bible. So we had to remove a few of the pages just to thin the journal down so it doesn't look like he's carrying a Webster dictionary around.

Binding the journal was also another issue since the pages even when assembled was only about 2.5mm thick. We found a glue that would finally hold and bind something this thin. These pictures are still a work in progress as we finalize the trim and do few more to tidy up the design, but it's getting there.

Thanks Cyrus! Thanks Jeff!

They're both pretty close to finishing. I sculpted up a few more things for them and hope to finish the molding and painting on the new bits pretty soon and I'll have final images pretty soon.

Damn John absolutely brilliant! Great tiny accessories! I wish my money wasn't tied up elsewhere or I would be in for this set.

Thanks Paul!

Chris, keep in mind they won't be finished at least for another month or two and I will only ask for a deposit when we are ready just to cover some of the parts that must be bought so you still have some time. Besides, anyone who has purchased from me know I'm very flexible with payments. I just want to make the best figure I can because it's a character we love.

Woodster, added you to the list!
