Re: GDB's Godless Creations
Trust me, I've thought about it! If I could resculpt it to look a little more pissed off ala my avatar I'd be all over it.
Beeshaw -- I've seen your Locke and he looks fine! But... a season one vest-wearing Locke on one shelf and a season six "I'm sorry you had to see me that way," Locke on another... Just sayin'.

Re: GDB's Godless Creations
Should have some updates soon! I've noticed that the more heads I'm juggling -- not litterally juggling, of course, although they are the right size for that sort of activity... Anyway -- the more heads I'm working on at once, the faster I am. Working on just one or two leads to down time while the paint dries and down time leads to more down time. While mutiple heads leads to more efficient use of the paint I have to pour out and mix up everytime I want to touch up something.

Re: GDB's Godless Creations
Went back to the well for this guy. He's going to eBay. The thing about this sculpt is that it is so lifelike that painting it is flirting with the uncanny valley of realism where you try one thing and suddenly he is so lifelike but then you push it just a little bit and now he looks totally fake and then you have to correct it. I almost swore off painting this sculpt ever again but I have a couple more in the post and about to be posted and we'll see how I feel after that.

My Locke will definitely make its way to you eventually - I just have so many unpainted sculpts I have to prioritise. I think Mal & Zoe might be next two off the rank once you get Collateral Vincent done

Re: GDB's Godless Creations
I finally had the chance to get a few pictures of the heads I received from GDB. I recieved my heads on Tuesday but didn't have a chance to get photos till last night (glued heads on neck adaptors and then found out my camera batteries were dead). I didn't fuss a whole lot with poses and I need to do a bit more tailor work with the jackets but this should give you a pretty good idea of what the Winchester heads look like on figures. I have to apologize for the flash in the first picture as it washes out the flesh tones and reflects off the eye gloss. The second picture was taken without flash but of course is a bit too dark. It does give you a much better feel for what the heads look like in normal lighting.
I will get some better photos and upload them this weekend. I was absolutely thrilled when I received these heads in the mail. Brent certainly knows his way around a brush and he turned these heads around in record time. I will definitely be sending more sculpts his way!
