Asmus toys x Viva studio : Ace Ventura

[AD Artwork]

hi all

This is the Jim Carrey as Ace Ventura figure that will be released by my contractor - Asmus Toys.

This is not done by me but my colleague - Viva studio, who is also an awsome sculptor and painter, he free-lanced some really amazing works and has finally joined our team. and he is very keen to introduce his stuffs to he sideshow world too.

Well, that's let the pictures tell the story.

cheers

Very cool figure! Although, If I'm being 100% honest, I think it looks a bit more like Kurt Russell in the face.

Anybody else get that, too or is it just me?

No I see Kurt too.
Looks like they were going for this look

Personally I prefer the first film.

The eyebrows are too thick for one thing, too even. They need to start out thick, then get more angled and pointy. For the deranged look Carrey goes for. He looks happy not nuts. Changing that would help sell it as ace a lot more and would be an easy change to make. They need to be lower as well, they look like their up too high. One eyebrow is also usually slightly higher than the other when Carrey is making expressions.
it should look more like

The face needs to be thinner as well. It's too thick. Jim Carrey was very skinny in those movies. The body too muscular and the neck is too thick as well. More of a hot toys slim type not one of the regular bodies.

The hair is dead on though.

Doesn't look like Jim, I'd buy if there was a new sculpt.

The clothing looks good

Yeah,
i have problem with his eyebrows too.
try to tell him that,
but it is hard to tell as a colleague...
definately passing on the message.

I don't have a problem with it... I look at it and see Ace, so this is a definite buy for me!

I am so glad to see my best friend Viva, another young genius artist, has a chance to share his job here!

Don't worry!

I know that he has already destroyed this old HS and make a new one !

I hv confidence that you will see a much better one soon!

Any Idea when this will be available?

 

[RJMacReady16]

There's no mistaking that's Ace, but if he can perfect it---why not.

I think this thread could scare off people who haven't seen the new sculpt. I would delete it or edit the first post.

 

[EdwardNashton1]

no interest in this really, but it's nice, and fun to lol at the fact that this is a nice 1/6 ventura figure.

 

[Maglor]

Great figure! And an awesome pose here!

I got mine in mid March. I did not get a shipping notification. They are very responsive with emails though, have you sent them an email requesting info on your order?

Here are some pics. He came out great!

 

[Cap'n Cook]
