When does it look like we will get to see a paint up version of the head sculpt?
 
Rocco sent me a message the other day saying he's going to send out the casts for the proto hoping he does that this week :)

Andy hibbs is going to do a haired proto too!
Will be painted in a few weeks going to send it off to the painter hopefully we get a good paint app :)
 
Quick question what sort of body would you guys recommend for wonka?

Does anyone have a spare body I could borrow so the seamstress can tailor to the body?
We're getting there :)

I do not have a spare, but I think Wonka would be a Truetype slim?
 
Thanks man would that be the same as a kumik slim? I have a kumik slim.

Rocco's ompa and wonka sculpts are on the way to me to be sent out for painting.... Painter has changed atm Rahmeir will be painting the proto. :) Andy hibbs will hopefully be hairing the proto.
Project is delayed slightly due to custom printing fabrics getting it right etc.

Looks similar in stature. I think the thinner the body the better.... Considering how many clothing layers there are (shirt, vest, coat). Gene wilder from my recollection was pretty slim. The kumik body goes for $25 on ebay which is a third if the Hot Toys prices. Will it be included?

I am not familiar with this painters work, are there any samples? Also did you get my pm about tie fabrication?
 
Thanks man well only one way we'll find out aha! I could probably work on a deal with Kumik and see if I can work something I'm not sure yet I'll get back to you on that.

He mods sculpts and paints... So should there be an issue with the sculpt he would be able to pin point it hopefully.
Also I did man sorry I didn't reply it's spoon flower I'd recommend a swatch for a tie saves you money.

Hey, your PM box is full, wanted to send you a message.
 
Why the change in Painters again? I was actually looking forward to the last one that was on board.... he seemed to have a wonderful grasp on skin tones and blending.

Are there any samples of the new painter's work? I just am getting weary with the frequent changing of gears on this project. Timeline is no issue for me if things are done well, as I am sure others feel the same.

Hey bud I'm going to be painting the proto and am very excited that I was asked to do so. I have a few examples of my work to show here.

I opted out of painting as I felt my time had been getting wasted since last October.
I was getting messages can you paint this can you paint that , I say yes and reserve slots for painting
Loosing customers at the same time.
The heads will be there in a week and yet nothing arrived.
Would you be willing to paint my wonka heads for customers and hair them?
Yes no problem.
Oh we have chosen somebody else.

3 weeks later
Would you still be interested in doing the wonk as ?
Yeah no worries I can do them.
No reply for weeks.
And then suddenly hidden jitsu is the painter?
What thanks for letting me know.
Just a complete waste of time to be honest.

Rahmier is a pretty good painter so people don't worry about your paint apps.
 
I'm not going to discuss personal issue's on this board, I also asked you and you said yes.
There is more in the world than resin I'm not going to discuss my finical issues or personal life on the board.
 
godfather1408,,,,,,,i sent another pm, please read and send back a reply, thanks....

and for the record- RAHMIER84 is awesome, you will not get back a product unless he thinks he hit on it 100%, and any problems he is a man of his word.
 
Good to see a little competition being provided to the Heisenberg thread in the dramatic thread category. :rolleyes:

Dramatic? Nahhh Just unsure of the painter change... and of course now I am sure given the samples! Next time a change happens send samples hehe.
