[Toribox] Roger Moore Tuxedo SOLD OUT

[Raymond F.]

I think the bottom shot thst Wor Gar posted above was a film screen shot

 

[Wor-Gar]

Ray's correct.... Gido, check that 2nd picture I emailed to you (and in my post #400), its a close-up of Bond's shoe from the movie -- specifically when he's kneeling down next to dead Max Kalba at the phone booth. The shoe has the brass buckle. You can also see it glinting many times in the movie when Bond runs through the dig site (I know, I did watch to see).

It looks like a sideways "T" to me. Best I can tell. That picture I sent you is the best I could find.


Here's what Bondsuits.com says: Moore wears black patent leather, squared apron-toe slip-on shoes from Ferragamo with a wide strap across the vamp and small brass buckle or side-bit detail at the side of the strap.

OK, then we'll try to make it like sideways T, ok? Thanks a lot for shots, Wor-Gar, of course I've resent them to sculptor, , but anyway is no way to see perfectly shape of buckle. But Denis will try his best!

 

[Raymond F.]

When I did my own little attempt at this and sculpted my own in the pictures a few pages back, I took artistic liberty due to lack of reference. I’m sure gido, whatever he does will be fine! Just happy we will have shoes and the watch

 

[Wor-Gar]

Agreed.

I've reattached the buckle picture.

I've also done a quick sketch of what I believe it looks like. Please, anyone correct my visual if its wrong. Otherwise perhaps my lousy drawing is helpful despite the wavering lines.

 

[gido]

Сouldnt it be F - like Ferragamo? Then it could be some sense

 

[Wor-Gar]

It just doesn't look like an "F" to me. Look closely. Looks like a T-shaped brass buckle.

Don't be fooled because I called it a "T" to explain the shape. It doesn't have to be a letter at all -- its just a buckle.

Also, Ferragamo doesn't use an F as a buckle on its shoes, I just goggled it.

maxxyron, Gruff old bear, Julie Tucker, Amarcord, ymba, Dingding- guys, don't you want Moore shoes and wristwatch?

On the list. I'm Julie Tucker, No 6.

 

[Julie250]

Also my suit arrived yesterday. So beautiful.
Thank you very much to all involved.

 

[gido]

I love it? How about you ??

 

[gido]

Now need to understand from Ray, how is best way to make connection slot for peg)
And sorry, Julie, of course you are in list ?
Thanks

 

[Julie250]

No worries. Thanks

 

[Wor-Gar]

I love it? How about you ??

I think that looks GREAT! And fast work too! Love that.

Only thing is I don't think there's the brass stud on the other side from the buckle. I do see a glint in that picture that may indicate something but I don't think its a brass stud.

Would it be possible to get a few more wrinkles in the shoes across the top? Once these are painted glossy the creases will really catch the light nicely.

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

Please add me for the shoes and watch.

The tux is waiting for me at home. Unfortunately I am a long way away, dealing with a family emergency. Probably won’t get back until late August.

 

[gido]

Sure! I already sent our requests about wrinkles etc, all will be done best way ?
Soon some deposits will be needed.
Will write all information tomorrow.
