[sdabbs] Commando (1985) John Matrix head sculpt

[DERBY]

Will the cost to paint the sculpt be cheaper with skin toned cast?

 

[Frank Jaeger]

I can check, but I wouldn't imagine so

I'm having my commando head cast in the semi flesh and it will be shipped straight to the painter so hopefully I can have a painted head to show fairly soon.

 

[DERBY]

Thanks!

This is what the painter said:

Not really unfortunately, just needs thinner layers of paint to look good, it does look better though, as the paint isnt all pasted on.

Cast in semi flesh

If everyone could please let me know if they are wanting the semi transparent cast or the resin cast, it's not going to be a choice of one or the other, both are available - just the semi transparent are an extra $10 to cast as mentioned earlier in the thread

Once I got all answers I'll let frost know and they can be cast!

 

[rjszar]

Semi-transparent for me.

 

[JeffTVR]

I'll have one of each please, cheers!

 

[UlliPekka]

I'm NOT translucent sculptures)

 

[Octavarium]

Semi-transparent(or flesh) for me too.

normal resin head for me

 

[Lawrence]

Since we can choose, normal for me as well please.

 

[DERBY]

I would like the semi transparent.

Paint up of the semi transparent head (without the camo added yet) on the HT body

 

[DERBY]

Looks Amazing!!!

 

[UlliPekka]

This is certainly cool)
But when you're ready to send the head?

 

[Platty]

Looks great!

The heads are to be cast in the next 2 weeks and then to be shipped to me to ship out to customers.

The caster was backed up and then it got close to Christmas where everything slows down and we wanted to confirm the head size before going ahead and casting them all.

Once they arrive with me I'll make sure they are all drilled so they fit onto the body properly and then I'll ask request who wants it painted by Mark and and the unpainted will have shipping charges requested.

For those who choose the semi transparent casts - there is the extra $10 for the cast I'll collect along with shipping!

(It's been noted the head is not on the body properly in the above images)

Small update

Heads have all been cast and are being drilled, should be shipping to me by the end of the week!

If you all would please let me know who is wanting it painted by Mark so when they arrive i can send them straight to him.

At which point I'll update with payment details for paying Mark for painting the heads.

Thanks

 

[rjszar]

Mine is to be painted.

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Just thought I'd update you guys that I've received the commando casts today! Took a little longer than expected so my apologies on that but there are here now.

I'll peep them this weekend and shipping will be early next week.
