I don't see a sandman.

I don't see a sandman.

BB is talking about the first three heads on my other thread ("Lady Falcon: First Peek"). Buzzard, Professor Squid and Dune Guy.

That was (and still is) my original goal. I've waited months and all I got from the mold maker/caster is one Buzzard head (used on my custom Vulture). I try to be patience in hopes of quality results, but I'm not sure it is working. You know how artists can be, push too hard and they loose interest. Wait too long and never see your original work again.

[thunderbolt]

sounds like you need to learn to cast for yourself.

Looks great! The reptile might make a good alien from "V".

I don't see neck plugs in pics.

thunderbolt; Learning as fast as I can afford.

Chris; What a great idea.

megoknight; All these photo are WIP pieces. Even Buzzard, was not complete at the time. Check out his neck, it's way longer than the one attached to Vulture. Once I decide the head is complete enough to remove from the stick, I grind the neck down to the desired level. From there I sculpt and tool the neck plug. The plugs work well with DrMego bodies because the torso come apart and can be reglued and restrung. The CTVT torso, appears to be molded in one piece. I don't like the idea of cutting and retooling the torso parts to insert a resin plug. Since the CTVT bodies need restringing, I've been considering a post neck with a eyescrew. Either way, I'm sculpting the neck plugs on all of them. The castings from there, can be tooled to fit.

I would suggest that after you make the head, dont have a neck plug and then attach one from a CTVT since they're cheap and cast with standard neck plug.
