Aliens Drake Repaint

[small_studios]

One of the early sculpts from Hot Toys. With the right paint it really isnt a bad likeness. Not 100% but not terrible. Still not sure why they chose redish brown hair for the actual figure.

Wow, there is a Drake under the porn stache' after all. Fantastic work as always Josh.

Excellent repaint. The figure really shows how Hot Toys has evolved over a few years as well. I wonder if they'll DX the Aliens line?

ANOTHER WICKED repaint Josh. BAM!

Awesome to see an 'older' figure repainted too!

Thanks guys for the comments. This sculpt does indeed show how far Hot Toys has come. Not only in paint applications but sculpting too.

Looks much better why did they do such a bad paintjob in the first place,the rest of the figure is screen acurate could it be to likeness rights as with other figures like billy sole maybe?

Thats the main reason.
Actors just seem to be a pain in the azz.., when it comes to likeness rights.
Maybe somebody els can give you more info on that.,

A while back i was reading about a fan, who spoke with Michael Biehn.
He said that he did not want to sell his likeness, becouse basicly, was not enough cash coming his way.
