MUSINGS...

Hey Everybody,

Nothing super new going on with me, just thought I'd throw up a post of some various stuff.

A couple new things got unveiled recently. I'm rather interested in them as I believe they have some nice working potential.

The new TTL body and headsculpt:

15085784hh41icspm8nmn5

150900mxofdfdtk6dyeaa2

150902w2m25h2cx8ux5uvz

This is the same sculpt as the two versions of the SS Girl, but this time with a jet black bob haircut. I really like the face and think that with an eye repaint, has a lot of potential.

ZC Girl EVE Pale:

1806069myn7m92y2lfryx9

Again, I nice headsculpt that is different and I believe as well has potential. Not a super fan of the ZC body, though it does have a surprising range of motion beyond some other bodies out there.

As for projects of late, I haven't worked on much since Madame Krieg. I have a few things in mind and of course older projects that I still need to get underway.

What I would like to do soon is go through many of my older customs and thin down what I have. I have so many characters that I have made over time, and they were cool to make, but after a while they just take up space and if I don't have a specific use for them as a character or within a group of characters, I'm going to start posting them up for sale. So when I do that, I'll post links here in case anybody would be interested in obtaining some works of mine.

In non 1/6, I recently saw Battle: LA

BLA_IT_1SHT_SLDRLK_3

I have to say I thought it was a great movie. It took all the silly stuff out of Independence Day and then mixed it with the gritty war feel of Saving Private Ryan. Definitely something worth seeing IMHO.

I'd like to give a shout out to Resistence827 on Flickr. He made an awesome custom of Aaron Eckhart's character, SSG. Nantz a while back. Resistence827 has some of the best 1/6th (and other scale) photography and pics on Flickr I have seen... so check him out:



This weekend I'm heading to see Suckerpunch on IMAX. Can't wait to see it and to see what Hot Toys is going to give us from the movie as they have the license. I also love the recently released pinup style art posters from the movie:

5502732636_5cd077a704_o

5502732424_6c88e65c9a_o

I'd love to get these in 1:1 and I think I'll make some 1:6 versions too for my Power Team wall lockers lol.

Thanks for following.

Love that TTL blk short bob male cut...PERFECT Female Spock, Goth chick or Female Villian.

2nd Love that ZC girl figure. Awesome headsculpt. I see lots of potential in her for jut an everyday beautiful civilian.

As for the Sucker Punch Posters, if you do some 1/6 I am interested in purchasing.

You can also use this sculpt & the small breast body to make Irina Spalko from Indiana Jones Kingdom of the crystal skull !

That is a fantastic idea actually :)

It would be an interesting premise if one wanted to present the character in her early 20's as a prodigy of the Soviet Union's paranormal researching.

Would be like the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles but focused on another character from the canon.
