Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

I'm wondering if I should send the outfit money this month as it was projected that way I can get that out of the way and just wait...I'm sure since the outfit is being done with immaculate detail that I will be very satisfied with the outcome....but you let me know if I should or shouldn't...:)

The paint apps so far look stunning, you can most defiantly see Gene in Mikes sculpt, the eyes and hair are really gonna bring this too life:panic:

Few questions I'd like to answer regarding the body and outfit....

1 - I'm awaiting a schedule for the outfit it shouldn't be any later than end of October but there was a few issues which is in my next answer.

2- regarding the body I decided to change the kumik as I wasn't 100% on the kumik slim, so I had to order a new body and ship to the seamstress which takes a few weeks hence the delay.

Here is the body we are using

Can't wait to see Omppa painted too he's gonna look awesome! I'm liking the hat texture so glad it has the little texture tones.

That body is ttm21 sized body, far to big for Wonka. This needs a re-think immediately. Why not just get the tailor to size for a ttm22 size body?

Agreed now that I am looking at it! It has huge arms. Compare your photo to this:

You need that slim form for all the clothing layers! I agree with Laney... This could be a big problem. The shoulders are too wide. I was fine with kumik slim because I could have swapped the hands and the proportions were correct.

If you tailor to that ttm21 body the arms will be pretty big, and not layer well. Wonka is a skinny guy overall. I imagine this would be a body the tailor would have on hand.

Here is a photo of the ttm21 to compare:

I agree, the shoulders are way too big for Wilder. He was very slim in his prime. Thin arms, small shoulders. The clothing will not layer well with bulky arms and shoulders. We have come so far in perfecting this wonderful figure, let's not mess it up with the incorrect body.
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

That TTM 22 body looks perfect.

You're the master! Looking great Jake. I forgot about the Oompa...cant wait to see how they both turn out.
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

Thanks for the comments wish I had sorted this issue sonner haha! If the seamstress doesn't have the body it will set it back by another 4 weeks but I will ask as I want to get this perfect for you guys :)

Also another issue is the price of the body, would you suggest going back to the kumik slim if that's the case? Or is the Kumik again still far too big?
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

How similar are the Kumik slim and the TTM 22?
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

The waist is a little larger, the shoulders are wilder also, but not much.

I'd be prepared to supply a ttm22 to get the size of the clothes right. Could others do this?
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

Sadly ttm21 is not an option ttm22 maybe an option but need to speak with the seamstress the price is where it gets me £60 plus postage for a body eyes dialog for the guys who don't have one, is there a cheaper one?

Rainman used the ttm21 for his and his layed well didn't it? The body I was using was close too the ttm21 but not quite.
Any suggestions are welcome. :)

How does the sculpt size look on a ttm22?

I suppose we could try the ttm22 just means it adds more cost.
 
Re: Candyman & Friend! Monty productions! Sculpts by MG! SPACES NOW OPEN!!!

Pretty sure (99.9%) Rainman used a slim TrueType for his. Ttm22 is the slim true type. The ttm21 is the same as the newer knock off bodies that you originally pictured.
