Clothing set Jurassic Park - Dr. Alan Grant - Toribox/Yunsil [CLOSED/SHIPPING]

[DoggieDoc]

Hello everyone. This is finally the thread for the Jurassic park accessory set to go along with the Alan Grant sculpt that is shipping and the Yunsil outfit in the works.

The set includes:
- 1/6 raptor claw
- 1/6 broken dinosaur egg
- 1/6 flare
- 1/6 light up flare
- 1/6 watch
- 1/6 leatherman multitool
- 1/6 U-Dig trowel in metal (this will be updated as its size is not very accurate)
- 1:1 raptor claw as an additional option



All prototypes are currently complete so I'd like to figure out how many sets I'll need to do. So let me know...

- Full set
- Full set plus 1:1 raptor claw

The full set is $150 plus shipping.

The 1:1 raptor claw will be an approximately $75 add-on (still need to get an exact casing quote on this).

Received my sculpt today.

Overall I'm happy with the likeness and the appearance of the hat. But i did have a few issues I want to bring up as constructive criticism.

For one the sculpt and hat came in plastic bags with no packing material inside whatsoever. Mine arrived unbroken but rattling around every which way. A little newspaper or bubble wrap would have made me feel a lot better.

Number two, the sculpt has support points all over it from the 3D print. I would have expected these to be sanded off before being sent for casting. They are present on the sculpt on the chin and ears, as well as on the hat.

Just some stuff i wouldn't expect and to maybe try to improve upon in the future.

Yeah my painter said he’s gonna have to charge extra for the sanding and finishing.

 

[Waruna Weligamage]

aCTUALLY THIS IS SOMETHING IM GONNA WORK OUT MORE ON THE COMING PROJECTS. TO IMPROVE QUALITY ON THE CASTS AND THE PACKAGING. SO FAR IM NOT AFRAID OF DAMAGES AS I HAVE FULL INSURANCE FOR THE dhl SHIPMENTS. iTS THE REASON I CHOSE THIS AND IT DELIVERS IN ABOUT TWO TO THREE DAYS TO MY CLIENTS THOUGH I PAY $20 FOR EACH SHIPMENT. i WILL BE WORKING OUT ON A BOX AND MAKE STUFF MORE BETTER IN QUALITY WISE AND KEEP A REASONABLE PRICE TAG ON THE SCULPTS. THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS ISSUE

My painter wasn’t happy and also told me I will be charged extra to sand down the sculpt. The head should have been sanded before it went into casting. Now everyone here has to have that done to make it acceptable to paint.

Ouch.

Don’t worry about it Waruna, just a heads up for future sculpts

Same here. I also wrote Waruna this via PM.

But sanding it down guys is not a big thing...Not cool that the painter wants extra money for it...its done in 5 minutes so...that should be included in the painters price.

Yeah you can't state that at all. I am not trying to make a mountain out of a molehill here, but as a custom artist, I have to do a TON of sanding of my own works before painting. It is NOT a small task, and it DOES add to the workload, especially if you are doing it well. Because it's not only sanding down the nubs, but ensuring a smooth surface finish. Or in the case of a head sculpt, there may be skin texture detail that is lost when sanded, and that needs to be added back in.

guys well as I said earlier very sorry for the mistake and I would pay each painters extra money they asking or dont send the cast to painters untill I send a new head for you all. and you can return my sculpt back to me. Doggie I understand your concern and as a custom artist im giving the options to rectify it back. Im not eager about money so this is doable. I wouldnt even do the hats for second time for something you all wanted to be rectified after producing the first set of hats. So im here to rectify the issue for you all in any way you suggests.

Please don't take my previous comments as a further problem. I commend you for your offer. I, too, have had to take my fair share of lumps doing my custom work. More than once I have sent new items to people who were unhappy with what they got, even though I strive to make everything perfect from the beginning.

My comment was more to say that you can't judge a painter for charging extra for sanding because it is not a small undertaking to do it right. That was all I wanted to chime in about there.

I'm not sure I would have even noticed this issue, had it not been brought to light here. Since I have been a model builder most of my life, this sort of thing seems insignificant to me. I can understand painters wanting to charge a little extra for this, but that's all it should be, a LITTLE extra. My regular head had nothing on the ears and minor bumps on the chin. As Kris_Santa said, less than 5 minutes to fix. The hatted version had a little more, but once again, it wasn't a huge deal. In cases like this, I've learned to pick and scrape with a blade first and then sand if needed. It goes way faster and less chance of losing detail.
