Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

And one final thought on the cape and pants situation.... D-Art Studios does very good work and it's pretty easy to get a commission going with them. I've done it twice in the past and the work was very nice. They did both my Walrusman outfit and Mumm-Ra's cape. The material for the cape is very nice and drapes realistically in 1/6.

Walrusman cost me $35 and I think Mumm-Ra's cape was $20 or so (I did the distressing on it myself):

Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

damn..............looking at the proto pics vs. production is a huge step backwards........:horror

(goes searching for mini bedazzler tool..............:lol)
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

Yeah, Sideshow really f'd up on this one. I think they overestimated the demand when the made the proto and set the price. So in the end we ended up with a much lower quality item.

On the plus side, it's still a great piece. But they could have gone the extra mile in production and made this one of the greatest ever released.
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

Thanks... I'll go ahead and put a feeler out for D-Art and see if they could do anything. Might as well see what's what :huh
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

In talks with a tailor fingers crossed.
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

thats good news on BOTH fronts with the tailors....but real quick question...it0778....Darknessess's(sp?) staff....that would REWAAAALY enhance the over display -a - bility of the figure once its done....can you talk to Oscar to see what the cost might be for the staff?....and again...this is just an inquiry because as i look at the proto pics...the staff looks badass...:)
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

Maybe the staff could be a future extra if he decided to go with it.

Maybe a future release I asked very early in the thread what people wanted and the majority wanted the horn and sword.
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

I'm personally not very interested in the staff... but if it's offered I might buy one. But since you never saw it on-screen (at least I don't recall ever seeing it) I don't feel like it's a necessity.
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

i'm all in for a possible future release of the staff....:)
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

i would wager one could find a small diecast/metal dragon that would be close enough to fit the bill.
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

Im in for a staff release now or in a near future!!!!

---------------------------------------------------------

I lost some msg's, someone ask for a piece to customize the rest of the leg... you guys will ask Oscar to make it or it will stay as he already show us?
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

Maybe a future release I asked very early in the thread what people wanted and the majority wanted the horn and sword.

Later on would be better i'm thinking. When this project was first started we where asked which accessories we prefer staff or sword. We all chose sword and unicorn horn so doesn't seem fair to be making all the sudden demands to Oscar who has been awesome enough to take on such a difficult project. I'm grateful for what we are getting in this kit and whatever extra's Oscar wants to throw in he will do it, he did a great job on his Mola Ram set and I am confident he will do the same here, but I would also be interested in staff in the future.:monkey3

:exactly:
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

hmm...don't remember anyone asking about the staff..but i digress and refuse to go back and check...lol...anyways...i'm in for the release at a later time if Oscar chooses to go that route...:)....this is awesome that will be here soon!!!!!...:)
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

I did hear back from D-Art studios and they were at least open to work on a basic cape. I'm going to send some reference images and see what sort of price, etc. and I'll share that here.

Don't want to step on any toes those, so if that's a problem let me know. But it sounds like we don't have a tailor at the moment.
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

Did some shopping today and bought everything I need to build the cape, pants and all the jewelry stuff. Gonna be a fun project!
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

i hate you elvis....



soooo.......do you want to take my money and all you have to do is send something like yours back to me...:)
 
Re: legend (lord darkness) (list full!)(update page 1 wip of the legs)

haha let me make on set first.
Actually offering a complete outfit might hard since one will probably require lots of work.

But I will see.
