Thank you Arnax1985, your deposit has been received.
Latest update picture from Waruna:
Waruna has now basically finished up the sculpt, let me know what you think:
Waruna wants us to have a think how the sculpt is offered.
He and I are leaning towards two separate sculpt offerings, one with the hat and one without. The reason that this seems to be the best option (rather than going with one sculpt with interchangeable hat and hairpieces) is that Grant's hairline and the low-lying nature of his hat make it difficult to put a cut in the sculpt that will not be visible (would have to go in the forehead which would be less than ideal). Let me know what you all think.

Definitely 2 heads is sensible. Looks great.
Jurassic Sized Update 12.10.2018
Thanks for the feedback everyone that's been really helpful.
A: Head Sculpt
Waruna has agreed with your recommendations and is going to offer two head sculpts, one hatted and one unhatted. He is also going to offer a separate hat as an accessory which can be held in Grant's hand when you are using the unhatted sculpt (this accessory won't be compatible with the unhatted sculpt i.e. it won't fit the head and is just for the figure to hold).
Waruna has confirmed that the sculpts will be offered at the following prices (please note that all prices are for unpainted sculpts and whilst they do include shipping worldwide they do not include paypal fees should you chose to pay as goods and services, which is always recommended):
(1) Unhatted sculpt = USD85
(2) Hatted sculpt = USD110
(3) Both 1x unhatted and 1x hatted sculpt = USD175
(4) Extra hat accessory = USD25
[All payments to be sent Waruna directly once he is satisfied with the test print. I will confirm details at that time or, if you are facebook user, you can go directly to him through facebook]
Waruna is ready to do a test print but before he can do so we need to finalise the body choice. I should be very grateful for your input here and will set out more ideas in another post.
B: Clothing Run
I mentioned a while ago that I would keep the list open all the while Waruna was working on the sculpts but once the portraits were available for order I would close the clothing list two weeks later. Well we are now really close to that moment which is awesome and thank you all for hanging in there.
Given our proximity, I propose that we close out the clothing deposit list at the end of the month (approximately three weeks from now) on 31 October 2018.
Please let me know by PM if you anticipate this deadline being an issue for you.
More good news has seen Waruna join the clothing run so we now have nine deposits in total which is great. This means that we have met critical mass and have the numbers to move forward without me needing to re-mortgage my house to make up the difference (my wife says thanks!). Currently I will be purchasing one more set than I had planned to in order to make up the minimum 10 required but I am confident that this won't be needed as more closet palaeontologists join us now that the sculpt is available and firm deadline set.
On 1 November 2018 I will be submitting the clothing deposit to Yunsil.

C: Body Type
In terms of body type I should be very grateful for your input.
Sam Neill is reported as being 1.82m tall (so just shy of 6ft). This seems about right to me as I'm 6,2ft and when I met him he was a bit shorter than me, probably in the region of 6ft.
Body wise, Grant has quite a slim build so I was thinking something along the lines of a TTM18 or COOMODEL B34002. Both of these options are neckless so if we were to go with them we can either add a separate neckpiece (for instance, I understand that the Coomodel comes with one as standard) or ask Waruna if he would be happy to produce the sculpt with a neck.
I'm not an expert on all the body types available and tend to usually stick to Hot Toys bodies for my custom figures so I will be grateful for any and all suggestions on this point.
Otherwise we could consider a body with a neckpiece but it would need to be slim in build. If you could get back to me quickly with your thoughts and even comparison pictures of the bodies that would be really helpful so I can give Waruna the details and send it off to Yunsil.

D: Bandana
I've been re-watching the movie to try and get some better shots of the bandana / neckerchief pattern that Grant wears. As far as I can tell it is basically a red bandana with a classic red paisley print but next to impossible to see it clearly. If anyone has access to pictures of the screen used item that would be fantastic.
My research suggests it is as follows:

E: White Tee
Ok I don't know how I missed this before but whilst looking out for the bandana I noticed that Grant wears a white button tee (possibly just three buttons running down from the collar area) underneath the blue shirt. Once you've seen it you can't miss it. Perhaps even more obvious in the final act once he loses the bandana (he appears to have the top button undone). I will ask if it can be produced for the prototype and we can decide from there. Pictures below:

Great catch. I definitely think we should have the undershirt. Seeing it now, it completes the look.
I have a question. Sometimes, Yunsil has weathered some outfit sets. Will we be able to have her weather it as in the photograph above? Is weathering something we are possibly considering or could consider? Or just the new look. Thanks again for all your passion in keeping this project going. Can’t wait.

If the undershirt has buttons, then it is probably a standard henley. It is readily available from the BBK Drive set on ebay. Don't know if that helps. Depends on what Yunsil would charge for one. Someone made the neckerchief once. I'll have to see if I can find that.

Neckerchief was done by Corrose Designs. Looks exactly like what you have there, only it doesn't have any black in it.
