Looking for my next accessory project... what is your favorite figure missing?

[DoggieDoc]

Hey all! I have really had fun getting into the customizing game and I'm looking for my next project(s). Below are links to all my past projects. As I have entered this new and EXTREMELY fun world I have come to realize I am in the business of custom accessories mostly. SO, I'm looking for something new to sink my teeth into.

I am currently working on a replica neon "HELLO THERE"/"HELL HERE" sign for Batman Returns 1/4 scale figure/statue, but I am already chomping at the bit for whatever might be next, so I thought I'd see what people think is missing from their favorite current figures or statues.

I was originally thinking I might try my hand at the classic pumpkin from Halloween but just as I thought about that I saw that Betomatali was releasing a new version so that idea was squashed.

I have been getting into the 3D modeling game but I can also hand sculpt/paint/etc.

With so many great projects going on, there is a great opportunity for you to expand.

A few of the projects that I'm involved in or buying have some opportunities.

1) Bram Stoker Dracula Red Armor project.
Armor is being made by Scaletta. But both his metal cross on a chain and
large statue cross as part of a dio needs to be done. As well as his golden chalice.

Large Cross

Hard to get close up shots of gold cross on chain and Golden Chalice.


1) One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest McMurphy figure.
There are 2 of these being made, one I am involved in needs
the following.

a) Juicy Fruit yellow pack of gum and gumsticks
b) Dirty deck of cards.
c) Pack of Marlboro Reds with removable cigarettes.

Gum stayed the same from 1957 to the 80's, so the 1957 is the accurate pack.

Here's the exact year of the Marlboro Red Pack

So let me know what you think and if you're interested in doing some or all of those.

Thanks

I would sign in for McMurphy's accessories. Need some reference pics for dirty cards ?:wink1:

Another idea that could get interest (other from me) : a damaged escape pod. Could be a nice dio part.

Wow, great ideas there. I especially like the Dracula ideas. Let me look into those and see if I can get some good reference images so I can think about how best to go about making them, whether it be 3D modeling or sculpting, etc.

Batman, Dracula... obviously you're mostly into goth things. No problem, do what you like, life is short !

HA! Hey, now... I love me some Batman, but Dracula was suggested from outside sources:rotfl

Oh, and I wasn't meaning to dismiss the escape pod suggestions, I just wasn't familiar with the source. Any further details on it?

Didn't find much material on Google actually... the best I can do is screenshots from movie.
Will do that and send to you, thanks for inquiring!
And what about One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest ?

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's nest is interesting... it would be new for me, dabbling in that sort of accessory. But I am not ruling anything out at this point. Now about those dirty card references...

So I mocked up the Dracula bleeding cross just to get a sense of scale. I based my measurements off of Winona Ryder's height as she is laying right in front if the asker and cruises, add well as Gary Oldman's height in a screenshot where he is standing right in front of the cross.

This thing is huge. I estimate it at a tad over six feet tall.

Here are a couple pictures... One includes a hot toys body (Jor-el) just to give a comparison. Anyway I eagerly await your response Abbott possibly making this project a reality.

Very nice. Now the hard part...lol

The small dragon scales around the sun. The murals of people on the top,
sides and bottom of the center sun and scales.

Sent you a gif in PM that shows some of that detail.

 

[DoggieDoc]

Worked up a face only of the cross. Much more cost effective to just print the face...I can build the remaining structure easily. I modeled large indents to put clay into to sculpt the details.

Maybe a batarang or a weapon of some sort for Bats we haven't seen yet...

I would love some kind of neon sign for Beto's Beetlejuice, or a headstone even. Finding the SS one from a set is very hard nowadays.

I'm about to build my last one with your awesome Table with Large cross and small cross on chain, that you originally made. Still looks great this is what I was talking about

 

[Noah123$]

An Accessory set for my Custom Alex from A Clockwork Orange would be nice. Like the Droog Mask, Glass of Milk, and a Beethoven Bust.
