ASMUS TOYS : Aragorn @ The Battle of Helm's Deep

[RandomHero]

I think given the curly and unkempt hair, Frodo needed the rooted treatment like this. But Aragorn might be alright even with sculpt hair which would save a lot of money.

Either way, those sculpts are incredible. There’s no reason Asmus shouldn’t be able to product this. Paint job aside, the sculpts should always look this good.

Thanks guys for the love on these sculpts. I'm as excited as you all are to see them finished out like this!

 

[BagginsOfBagEnd]

Wow that Frodo is amazing!!

It’s the one I’ve posted twice, unpainted and pre-hair. From Dean Tolliver Studio, formerly Creg Customs.

Yea I was considering posting this. It’s beautiful but I’m sure not cheap to look like this. Is this the sculpt that was shown with Aragorn and Sam? I hope we see the haired Aragorn soon. The painted Aragorn that was shown is beautiful as well.

The Sam head is nearly done. Shane is adjusting the hair color for Aragorn.

Oh we’ll have our chance to own them. They just won’t look like the pics we’ve seen because of the price to make them look that way. At least speaking for myself.

I will be offering sculpted hair soon on all 3. Looking like I will offer an Orlando Bloom as well.

Will that have sculpted hair? Just wondering how you will go about that for pose-ability's sake. I was going to send the Asmus sculpt out for a repaint but if you're going to make one I might just wait for that instead.

There are some flexible resins I can try but for Legolas I was thinking the Asmus route with the open back for adding hair. It should not cost nearly as much as a full rooting job and I would think some customers may even be able to handle it themselves. I'll have to think through it. Maybe I can make an insert that just has hair folded over it that fits into place fo an easy hair add.

This is how I feel most of the time I see beautiful custom sculpts and paint jobs. Anytime I’ve thought about sending to an overseas painter, it’s absurdly expensive for such a small item plus the custom forms etc you gotta fill out along with the potential of it getting lost in the mail. Thankfully, 357partment is considering making a painting course that I look forward to trying out.

Very interested. Is there a thread specifically for these?

These are what elevate our hobby into an art form. Simply amazing.

New set up for my Asmus Toys Helms Deep Aragorn.

Gave my Helms Deep diorama to Harry [Potter] so Had to think of something new for a display for my Aragorn and decided this seemed fitting.

Sam. Aragorn soon!

So pay $250 to paint, $90 for the 3D print and another $200-300 for rooting?

Yeah. I have all three of these sculpts I'm planning to get all painted and I think I will do my own rooting on them. Will help with the sting on the wallet a bit.

 

[DakRen]

Can’t wait to see Aragorn yet

 

[RandomHero]

If they ever do a sculpted hair Aragorn like this, I’m in. Not because I care about the added expense for rooting the hair, I just prefer sculpted to rooted to begin with.
