Hugh Laurie as House Custom Headsculpt by Chris Howes Interest Thread

Looks like the saturday toys jacket, shirt. WHat body creecher?

Here's another showing his Chuck Berry action.

I managed to get the jacket KBA said he was using, but ended up going with the Saturday Toys Mens suit set V1 jacket, and Saturday Toys casual cloth set 1 shirt, jeans and t-shirt, and socks. Used the Saturday Toys body, which looks to be a cheap Tru-Type as far as I can tell. There's heaps of sneakers on ebay to look through. I settled for these, though not show accurate at all. Used the cane from the Sideshow Doc Holiday figure, until Chris's one comes along.

creech, you crack me up!

I was originally just going to go with a plain old standing pose, but I think you might have convinced me to go with the air guitar!

That body takes the saturday jacket very, very well by the looks of it. Never looked right on a True Type. All hard to tell though with no head on the body. I thought that coat looked pretty good until I slapped a head on my true type, then just how big it was started to bug to the crap outta me. But with that body, looks great. How much shorter are they compared to the True Type?

 

[creecher]

Sorry, had to duck out.

It's a Saturday Toy body, the one that came with the V1 suit. I made an error earlier. The V1 body and suit came with the blue shirt. I still had to remove the gear to whack the t-shirt on underneath.

It seemed to me to be the same as the tru-type, to look at, except it was much lighter and flimsier. I really didn't think it would be able to hold the air guitar stance, but it's managing alright. I guess that's why the outfit fits so well. It's all Saturday Toys gear, except for the sneakers. I would say its the same size, height wise, as the tru-type. didn't have a spare nude body to compare it with. I should have done a comparison before I dressed him up.

I still have the ACI jacket as a back up, should it look weird once the head arrives. So thanks heaps for the tip on that.

Where is the best place to get this stuff?
I know Monkey Depot carries the Saturday toys and I found sneakers but the hot toys jeans are rare and the only others I have found are Dragon and they seem a little short.

 

[KBA]

Might have to build up a Guitar Cane playin' creecher-house with my second sculpt. Can't wait to see House on your gear.

Yeah, the ACI jacket looks like balls when its not on a figure, but you'd be surprised how it can fit a True Type. Cheap price tag too.

Check 7Toys7 on ebay for the James Dean Jeans. As far as I know, he parts them out regularly.

Thanks KBA!

How about the ACI jackets?

 

[KBA]

Same seller, they should have a bunch.

 

[creecher]

I used the tshirt and jeans from this Saturday Toys casual clothing set.

It's just the outfit, the figure isn't included. The place I bought it from has sold out, as it doesn't appear in their inventory any longer. Looks like its getting harder to find. I did a quick search and couldn't find it, but there has to be some out there. Great jeans. Probably not as tight fitting as the James Deans jeans, but they still look the part. Comes with a belt. The belt loops are a bit chunky, but the untucked shirt covers that.

Looks awesome Creecher

I have all the same stuff on order

Saturday Toys everything!

Does anyone know what the different shoes House wear for different episodes or seasons?

 

[creecher]

KBA posted some pics. Go to post 99 of this thread.

 

[samueljd]

Thanks, but I wanted to know the different models of Nike for myself, so I could do my own searching too. Also, I want to go with the ones that are my favorite. Right now I'm leaning towards the Nike Cortez, which I think he wears in Season 2, but I haven't seen them on Ebay. I think I might have to go with whatever is closest in color and repaint a bit.

 

[KBA]

With a little paint, the shoes me and creecher have can both easily look 90% close to a set of Cortez.

 

[The Drizzle]

I have a slightly different setup, I'll show mine soon. Won't have my coat for a couple of weeks, though.

 

[creecher]

Cool, it'll be good to see. I know it's hard to wait, but it'll be a while before the sculpts are on the go, so wait till you have your coat and give us the full treat. Sans head.

Will do. Will be mid January though, probably.

Got all my House clothes today Saturday Toys white shirt, blue shirt, coat, and pants all work great!

Right now I have him on Connors shoes, but I will probably find him some better shoes later.

Water treatment on the pants to get them to hang better around the ankle area. I think I will take off the metal button spans on the shirt too. Gotta futz around some more with the costume, but overall I am VERY satisfied!

All I need is his head and cane
