Re: WGP's John Carpenters "THE THING"
We are making MacCready's head and Crab thing. If interested in either let us know and we will add you to the non-committal interest list for them.
For the other items on the front page, we need more people interested to make them- 10 for the jacket, 16 for anything else. If interested in those also shout out.

Re: WGP's John Carpenters "THE THING"
WGP feels a custom is a very personal thing so prefer to sell them unpainted to let you decide how much to spend on your paintjob and who to use since they can range from $50 to about $200 depending on the painter.

Oh, Rick ... might that be a certain Antarctic helicopter pilot I see in your signature?
Looking pretty spiffy so far ...

Nice! Looking forward to it!
Quick question: Will the head have a neck? It seems like, with the long hair, it might work better with a neck. Not sure, though.

Re: WGP's John Carpenters "THE THING"
I wanted to show off our MacCready and Crab thing. The crab thing will get more detailing in the hair but is more or less done. I love how horrific his mouth looks!
We will have ordering information and prices tonight.

Those both look amazing. It's so great that you're doing the Norris head thing.

Re: WGP's John Carpenters "THE THING"
Wow. :horror
Those look freaking fantastic! Awesome work, guys! :clap
One TINY concern ... might it be possible for the eye stalks on the Norris Head Crab to be angled a bit more upward? Just asking because the eyeballs on the stalks will look amazing once painted, but if they're pointed downward, they'll be hard to show off in most people's displays.
But like I said, that's a TINY concern.
Will the legs have any reinforcement inside for strength? Like wire? Just curious.

Re: WGP's John Carpenters "THE THING"
The only thing I would say needs to be changed on Mac is that he needs a longer neck. It looks a bit short at the moment and with the amount of clothes he will be wearing its worth making it longer than usual.
The sculpt itself looks spot on :rock
