Hey Rick, you bring up some nice points, but casting is starting and I want my head sooner than later and further tweaks will only delay my snuggle time with Greg House. So kindly,with all due respect, STFU, thank you very much.

Seeing as House is wrapping up, would anyone be up for commissioning Wilson?

Yeah this commissioning is getting out of hand. I suggest a moritorium on all new commission threads until some of the outstanding ones get wrapped up.

Wilson and the rest are all there to support the main man. They are insignificant in that they can all be replaced by up and coming interns, and various other plots. House stays. He goes the shows over.
It's part of the reason this commission was such a success. You could say he's just another guy in a suit, but he is less than that. He's common muck, but still recogniseable. It wouldn't matter if you dressed him in tracky dacks and a t-shirt. You could dress him in pyjama's and it'd still be House. You could give him tails and a topper. House. He's a solo act.
This is just an opinion. I can see that people might want the whole cast, and Wilson would be the next in line. Go for it. In that respect, if it were me, I'd wouldn't be happy if after Wilson it stopped. I'd be disappointed that I had another unfinished line. House is all I need and am mighty thankful Buttmunch was able to take up the challenge, and secure Mr Howes to oblige us with his talent and creative drive and in turn secure Kuato to give of his time and talent to exemplify that effort into a top class custom. I also thank all those that jumped on board and made it a really wonderful and exciting project to follow. It's not done yet but I can hear the fat lady singing. Someone shut that woman up. I need some sleep.

I'm in agreement with Creecher. House is all I need. Ok, maybe i wouldn't have a problem with Cuddy and her stripper pole...

Good to know on wilson. I'll have to go it alone then with possibly another sculptor.

One of the biggest reasons House (The show but more importantly, the character) works is because House and Wilson are based off of Holmes and Watson. Take Wilson away and the balance is gone. I thought it'd be cool to have those two on my shelf
I'd be up for a Wilson depending on price.
If we do that, I'll tell you what I'm telling everyone right now...... it's gonna be a while!
I'm working on a lot of these, plus the commercial work has been merciless this year. Everybody came out of the woodwork at the same time for some reason. It puts food on the table, but it's not as enjoyable as custom work, unfortunately. What is this ugly crap they want me to make!!!??!!! And, of course, they all want it done yesterday. So to all new projects will be on the back burner for a while until I get some more done.
But, that doesn't mean you can't get a wish list together for later on after I clear some space. So, have at it! Just keep in mind that it's gonna be a while.
BTW, House went under rubber last night. I'll be extracting him from the mold tonight and I should start casting tomorrow. I guess I need to go to my chart and tally up how many I need!

Thanks Chris, but all I could hear was crickets (outside of buttmunch). I'm in talks with another sculptor going the private commission route
