LMAO @ that Robocop commercial!

Ok - here's my first attempt at posting pics. Sorry for the quality, but my wife has my camera. I should point out that the skin tone is a bit darker than appears in the pics and line between the flesh and the black chinguard is not nearly as obvious in real life - I think it's the effect of the flash.

Hmm I never was really a fan of Robocop and never saw the fascination. Although last time I saw it I was like 12

Robocop is my #2 favorite film of all-time...right behing PREDATOR. It's a fabulous revenge story, surprisingly dramatic and enough blood (Unrated version) to fill an olympic-size swimming pool. Plus it's an 80's sci-fi directed by Paul Verehoven and the music is done by the great Basil Poledouris. The film is perfectly cast and every actor delivers a stellar performance. I really love this film.


Congrats on the bust Skull

Congratulation on this, the colours are stunning.

 

[Atheris]

What number did you get?

Mine had the same concave/uneven surface area on the left breast plate shown in your picture.

I think mine is No. 18. As for the concave, it really is only a trick of the multilayered paint - it's not visible in real life. I can't stress how clean the paint work is on this - there has got to be 10+ layers to the paint and no slop. Lines are nice and tight, which is probably attributable to the modular construction. I may be on crack, but this one feels about 25-50% heavier than my original bust.

I'll try and snap some pics without the flash.

 

[Reinhardt]

Looks fantastic Skull!! Thanks!

How is the paint on the face and mouth?

 

[Skullsoldier]

Thanks, Reinhardt! The paintwork on the fact and mouth is much better than the first batch, which I thought had a very unnatural pallor. The lips and teeth especially benefit from the new paintwork. On my first bust, I thought the teeth looked like little white chicklets - now they look pretty great.

One correction - I mentioned the concave on the chest in a previous post. I scrutinized the piece a bit more and can confirm it is present on the left pectoral region. You really have to be looking for it, but it's there. I don't know if it's a casting issue or an issue with the original sculpt, but it doesn't bother me in the least.

Depending on the lighting and specific scene(s), Robo's screen-used suit is all sort of messed up in the film (with MANY imperfections). Dings, dents, skrapes and just about everything inbetween. Yours came out great. I am very happy for you and it's well deserved because you hung in there like a champ.
