Asmus Toys Evil Dead 2

[#Brian]

Ha ha agreed…your job is definitely no one’s business, but then, neither is your annual income, a far more private subject I would think, but you had no trouble volunteering that information so in fairness, it’s only natural that someone might be curious about the source of that income, right?

I only listed it to provide some perspective.
Says more about the person who reacts with hate and jealousy toward someone who is successful rather than strive for their own personal best and be happy. That's a loser mentality to hate on someone because they are successful. To assume successful people don't have a right or should be ashamed because of what they have achieved is a divisive attitude. My situation in life has nothing to do with where others are in their life and my income does not make me better or worse.

You will never achieve happiness or success as long as you base it on what others have and do. The only person you are in competition with is the person you were yesterday, try to do better than that person and you will have all the success you need.

Back on topic...I am really enjoying this figure. Everyone who has pointed out the right iris being slightly too high are absolutely correct and it seems to be like that on all so far, it's a shame really.

This weird post makes a lot of assumptions about the happiness and success of other people that you can’t possibly know anything about.
What makes you think that the people who are commenting on your post are neither happy nor successful?
Are you assuming that you are the only person on this thread who is happy or has achieved career success?
That would just be silly, right?
I think you are mistakenly assuming that people were somehow disturbed by your purported income, when in fact the comments were simply a reaction to the strangeness of someone actually announcing their annual salary on a toy site.
The comments had nothing to do with the amount that was claimed!
Its been my experience that people who are happy and make good money don’t usually spend a lot of time announcing those facts to strangers on the internet, but make of that what you will.

Well said.

Swell.

The thread's direction is now about "income".

Anyone keeping tabs on the number of different directions this thread is taking?

 

[DeltaForceChung]

My profession is being a C.P.A.

C ertified
P ain in the
A . . .

As for income . . .

I'm "poor" compared to the majority within this thread.

Had they placed that iris 1mm lower this is how it could have looked.

Huge difference. Shame it is so close yet so far away.

Because of the paint apps, puffy hair, and wonky eye, I might just use the SS head, and look into a total repaint of the Asmus head. With some additional length on the hair, I think it would make a really good AoD Ash head. I still have that old AoD SS figure somewhere, and with this head, and a new body, it might look half decent.

Wanted to share an image from Dave Humphrey he did some weathering on his Ash and I think with some work the sculpt can look pretty good.

Did Asmus ever say at some point if they were working on other versions of Ash, either here or on FB? Obviously that was before the giant debacle with this figure, but I was just curious if it was in their original plans or not.

I remember a few asked them if they would do more. I honestly feel this is a one and done by them after this whole thing but I'll be surprised if they do more figures. I actually would rather see sideshow do Evil Dead 1 Ash.

Gave the hand a brownish red wash, repainted the nails and added some more blood/black blood. Sorry about the very poor photos, my new phone sucks should I gloss up the black blood do Yas reckon ?

 

[K.bowen]

Repainted Linda's eyes and added some black blood

I imagine this is a one and done, but I'd love to see someone tackle AoD figures. Lots of cool figures could be made. Ash, Evil Ash, Pit Witch, Army Deadite(s). The Palisades figures from back in the day were cool.

 

[Luisenigma1]

Since today Asmus goes back to work after Lunar New Year I sent them an email on when they will ship my figure hopefully I hear back soon.

Anyone looking for better hands these are much nicer and are closer to the body's skin tone, I'll never go back to the original hands after using these Worldbox 1/6 Hand x 14 Pcs Set version 2.0

Thankfully I have two of these sets one I'm using for my Indy custom. And the other I can probably use for Ash.

Body update for the King.
Phicen M32.
Nipple painted with pastel powder. (Thanks for the tip @#Brian )
Cuts added with citadel paint blood for the blood god

And I'm experimenting with Vallejo still water effect for the sweat effect.
