Gang Boy by Rainman

[meth head]

Thanks, now it keeps coming up with a 403 forbidden page, anyone else had this problem?

Yes

That is something to do with your internet provider I think

I have to go round to my parents to order as they are on a different provider, mine could not sort it for me

 

[timtom666]

Ah man that sucks, I'll try doing the same, can you tell me is there any official news on his site about pricing and production numbers? Will there be a kit version?

 

[78Myers]

Yeah, what are production #s generally? 'Cause I really need this, and I don't want to be feeling sad when this goes up for sale and there is a mad dash to acquire one.

If you don't get the Rainman version, I am sure you can get the head/outfit set, they usually last a few days.

Timtom- where did you get the Dallas sculpt? Thats fantastic!

 

[timtom666]

Eriks - Do you mean the Dallas that I'm using as my av?

Also Do the outfit and head sets of Rainman's work come painted?

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

Check your PM box; since we don't post emails in the open, I've sent some info...

He usually offers a set of clothing with a head painted by DF Studios.

Thanks, I really appreciate that, what are the paint apps like by DF Studios?

They're done under Rainman's direction, and the paint is quite comparable. They're just not literally from the hand of the artist, and so they are outside the formal limited edition. If you just love the particular character, but don't necessarily want to pay the price to collect actual Rainman Artworks, he offers the sets with you in mind.

Oh ok cool, well in all honesty I would like one by him, but finding the money in time is the problem, sorry to keep asking you questions but on his site do you pay the full amount or is it a deposit type thing then you pay the full amount once they are finished? Also with the kit version do you still get the accessories?

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

At the end of the ordering process, you're directed to Paypal. I don't remember whether a deposit is acceptable, but the page directing you to Paypal will say what the payment deadline is.

In the days after the initial ordering for full figures by the artist, he usually offers clothing sets with painted heads, painted heads alone, clothing sets alone, and unpainted heads. The clothing sets typically include everything that comes with the full figure except one "exclusive item." The exclusive may be an additional accessory for the figure, or something else entirely. For the Dude, it was the "Achiever" mirror. For one of his Gunmen, it was a 1:1 ring like the one the figure wore, for another Gunman it was a 1:6 saddlebag. He usually doesn't announce the exclusive item until very late.

 

[timtom666]

That's awesome thanks, so when do you think this will be due out? How long did the Dude take from announcement to actually being sold, do you remember?

 

[78Myers]

Thanks for answering questions...

I don't think so with this... he did a few that were not so popular.. like Audry Hepburn and Gary Oldman from Leon... those lasted, still sold out in a few weeks. But the popular ones are gone in seconds. This will be one of those i have no doubt.

Hello, it's Rainman.

Thank you for your love and support on Lebowski. I just finished shipping out and want to ask you a little favor.





I heard some bad news from one of my co-working scuptors.

It's about someone casting heads from 'Side show' and then sell at the Ebay.



This isn't right thing to do.

Continuous casting make the quality of the head low, then the sculptor gets all the blames.

The way you can check whether if it's authentic head or not, there won't include unique wrapping the sculptor mentioned

ealier. So if you trying to purchase the head at Ebay, you must ask them to include wrappings as well.

If you got the head only, you must doubt if it's authentic head.

Therefore we include authentication card for full set or outfit set.

I had to tell you above thing because it's impossible to stop selling the head because of the illegally casted heads.



If the head has been casted twice or more, the quality gets very low.

Then this cause misunderstading that the sculptor sculpts low quality heads.

I really hope you to purchase the heads by sculptors.

I am making head^^ it so difficult than Lebowski ^^

 

[Raymond F.]

I'm so angry someone recasted your heads rainman

I will never ever support this kind of thing.

Previously unknown stories, scripts, letters and musical compositions by the late author Anthony Burgess have been found in an archive of his possessions.

The contents of three of his houses were left to the International Anthony Burgess Foundation in Manchester by his widow, who died in 2007.

Most famous for writing A Clockwork Orange, Burgess wrote 33 novels in all.

Researchers have now uncovered some 20 unpublished short stories as well as unproduced film and theatre scripts.

They include a previously unknown movie script about Napoleon Bonaparte, which was to have been filmed by director Stanley Kubrick.

The pair had worked together when Kubrick filmed Burgess' 1962 novel A Clockwork Orange, which depicted the ruthless sexual "ultra-violence" of a teenage gang leader in a lawless society.

The film caused an international outcry when it was released in 1971, leading Kubrick to withdraw it from cinemas. But it is to be recognised as a classic with a special screening at the Cannes Film Festival next week.

Burgess' original screenplay for the film is among the most prized artefacts at the International Anthony Burgess Foundation.

The typescript, which has never been published, was rejected by Kubrick, who opted to write his own instead.

Burgess' version is interesting because it is "very different from the novel", according to Dr Andrew Biswell, the author's biographer and the foundation's director.

"It's actually quite a bit more violent than the novel. There's a scene early on where Alex opens his bedroom cupboard and it's full of drugs, hypodermic needles and a child's skull."

Nice!!!!!!!!

I hope we never see a recast of your sculpts. Thats always a bad thing.
You work so hard on your sculpts just to see someone make an inferior copy and give you a bad name.
