        I don't know about that. I have a lot of incomplete projects, lots of heads that now need painting...lots of headless bodies, lots of piles of crap. I hope to finish up Alan and Pete soon so that I can say I completed something. I found some extra clothes I had made, so I won't need to make those from scratch. I want to make molds of Alan and Pete and make casts so that I can paint them up, and take photos.

        I'm still tweaking him....His hair is shaped kind of weird.

              I decided to pour a mold of Pete today. It's curing now. Hope it works so I can paint him up and see how close to the character I can get it to look like. Wish me luck guys.

                Have you painted any of other heads yet? Would love to see them

                  Do you ever sell any of these? They look so incredible.

                    I'm not the best marketer....and I get too easily distracted to complete a project. There are some people raring at the bit to get Alan, Pete and Dodge...I am hoping I can make successful casts so I can make them available. There's a big possibility I may do a really popular character like Pippin for 1/6 scale sometime in February.

                    I have an ANSA uniform ready for Dodge. I want to see him painted up and dressed up in an ANSA outfit fresh with dirt from the Forbidden Zone.

                    I have Pete's clothing ready for him, and another set of clothes for Alan. It's just one crazy ride--you think you are almost done and then you turn around and there's more work to do....and they keep cropping up all over the place. It's a madhouse! A madhouse!!!

                    11pm---OK. So far so good. Pete's mold has properly cured, I was able to pop out his head cleanly without tearing the mold. I will pour some liquid plastic in there tomorrow to see if I can make a clean cast. If I can just make 5 clean casts of him, I think I will make some apeheads very happy. Me included, as it will give me something to paint.

                      Haha, totally understandable. Your sculpts are just so incredible I think you'd make a killing.

                      Keep up the good work.

                        When I wasn't looking, Ashton proceeded to take my perfect mold of Pete and tore it in half. What became two seams are now three. WHY GOD WHY???

                            The mold is salvageable! Whoot! I just need to reapply more mold material where it tore...instead of pouring a new one.
