After seeing these pics, I caved in and got one from eBay; at below retail price..

Hope so! That would be great! Really looking forward to having him next to my Sweeney Todd.

Also hope HT goes back and does Edward Scissorhands justice! The first one is sorely lacking Depp's likeness.

i'm still trying to think of all that Ichabod could come with in regards to accessories and display base options. If he's a pretty bare bones figure I would hope that he doesn't cost as much as Sweeney.

Though since the Depp line is like a special line of its own, I would think they would try to go all out on each figure since they're most likely only making him from the movies of his they choose with the exception of POTC

Me too, I remember even seeing HT Edward Scissorhands on eBay in the summer for like $100 shipped but I couldn't do it just because Depp is not in that sculpt at all

This may be stretching it but I would like to see him come with the Goggles, MedKit with tools, His gun, his journal, Maybe a Pumpkin or two? Maybe a scythe? I would KILL for them to give him (instead of a chair like Sweeney) part of a Tree with diorama base. Would look great!

Just a little bloody mode.
More pic. are HERE.

The dripping blood/splatter is a great add-on, it looks very convincing!

Great job V!

 

[RagingBull]

That blood looks amazingly real, what kind of paint is that?

Thanks, guys!
This blood made with few tricks. Here they are:

1) the main blood color is the mix of Blood Red and little Scorch Brown paints by GamesWorkshop, acrylic.

2) For bloody sleeve: I've added some water into the paint to make it more liquid and than placed this mix on the special little-netted colander that I'm using to make blood drops. Than I've wrapped the figure into foil, only one hand remains uncovered. And after that I've blew up the paint from the colander on it using my own lungs and mouth. And here they are, little drops. The big ones I've added with the little brush. The same way used for the towel.

3) For the blade: I've added the paint mix into artificial water by Andrea Miniatures and placed it on the blade carefully, let it dry for 24 hours. Just loving how good it gives the real liquid volume to the painted blood (check it out here on Pyramid Heads' hands and here / here on Minas' finger).

TFS that info on how to put those bloods. on Sweeney. Unfortunately, I don't have the guts to put some artificial paints on his outfit cause there's a big chance I would messed it up. But its good to know the process you'd made in order to achieve this realistic look.
