That would be awesome of you Chris! :rock

Put me in for a painted sculpt too. I want to have as much professional work done on this as possible. Do we send the total amount for sculpt, cane, and paint to Chris? And BTW, what's the difference with the non-drilled head? Thanks.

No. Just go back a page and the read up. The paint is going to be handled separately. Send Chris the money for the sculpt cane and shipping.

PAINTING ANNOUNCEMENT!


Kuato, the very talented painter, has kindly offered to help out with painting all my commissions! :banana That's a lot :D. Please check out his work on my Joker heads here.

To keep from driving him crazy with overload on discounts, this is how it will work.

Kuato will offer a fantastic discount of only $30.00 plus shipping per head for the FIRST 10 ORDERS of each of my commissions. after the first 10 orders, his regular price of $45.00 plus shipping per head comes back into effect.

So, we will need to set up a list, first come, first served, to get the discount and post discount paint services of Kuato.

The paint transaction will be a separate transaction directly with kuato. Payment details will be announced once we get a list filled up! If you get in line for the FIRST 10 DISCOUNT then drop out later, the list will move up and whoever was next in line at the FULL PRICE will be bumped up to the FIRST 10 DISCOUNT.

Tell you what...... since cane painting is pretty easy (no flames, that is) I'll include standard cane paint job for anyone who ordered a cane free of charge. That way we won't gum up things for Kuato so he can concentrate on the important bits.

I design and drill the head to work specifically with a Hot Toys Truetype small neck joint (though I am currently developing my own resin neck joint) but it should work with other joints, like Dragon's.
 
Yep! As soon as you are able. I've got the rough done and if we can get the orders in I can get him really going. Several have already come in, thank you! I will get a chart of orders together shortly which I will post to keep things organized.

So, those of you on the list, and anyone else who still wants to get on board, please send me an official order email to [email protected] with the subject of "House" that includes:

1) screen name
2) real name
3) shipping address
4) quantity of heads
5) quantity of canes
6) drilled neck option, Yes or No

Please send payment to my PayPal address, [email protected].

To recap, the precast discount is $20.00 per head, $15.00 per cane, $5.00 if you want the drilled neck option, $5.00 US shipping for up to 4 pieces (any combo of heads and canes), $7.00 international.

So, as an example, one head with drilled neck and cane to USA = $20.00 + $15.00 + $5.00 + $5.00 = $45.00

One head with drilled neck and cane to International destination = $20.00 + $15.00 + $5.00 + $7.00 = $47.00

Adjust as needed! :D

I design and drill the head to work specifically with a Hot Toys Truetype small neck joint (though I am currently developing my own resin neck joint) but it should work with other joints, like Dragon's.


When the head and cane are done and go to molding and casting the discount period ends and the the full price goes into effect: $35.00 per head, $20.00 per cane. So be sure to keep tabs on the progress. I'll announce the discount end date after I show final photos so there will be a short time period for any stragglers to get the deal!

Thank you to everyone for making this commission come together so fast! :D

Sorry to butt in Buttmunch. I need to learn to butt out. I wont stick my nose in again.

Professionalism is my first concern! After all, I've been doing this for a living for 20 years!

You would send the funds to me for the sculpt and cane. The paint fee will be handled seperately by Kuato, AFTER we establish the discount order. Remeber, he is offering a discount for the FIRST 10 ORDERS only. After that it reverts to his normal fee. Since he is handling all my commissions now, this is the only way to keep him from going crazy! :D

Please look at this post for order details


The drill option provides a hole drilled into the neck so you can insert the appropriate neck joint adapter for your body of choice. If you choose this option I will drill the hole for you. Or you can do it yourself, if you want, with a high speed rotary tool like a Dremel drill. Good tool to have around if you are into kit bashing. It has a thousand uses! You can pick up a cheap one for $15.00 to $20.00 if you look around.
 
Chris, Right now, if all of the "?" people say yes, we are at ten. Unless you don't want me to count myself on the paint list either. That would open up another slot. Either way, let me know.
 
Thanks man, but I think it is you who will be doing all of the hard work. Definately worth the effort keeping this thread up to date for you. :rock
 
For Chris, the paint list so far:

Painted by Kuato
1) Buttmunch
2) KBA [1 of his 2]
3) creecher
4) bwayne
5) Brand X
6) samueljd
7) carbo-fation
8) rockdolly?
9) CommanderDude?
10) King Darkness?



If I don't hear back from the question mark guys by tonight, I'll bump them off the list for someone else to get in on the cheaper price.

I think people who haven't confirmed (?) should get moved further down on the list, So move me up. :lol

Sounds a little harsh, Buttmu. I'm assuming you will have PM'd those who haven't confirmed? Maybe give them till Tuesday to respond. Some people like to take a long weekend.
 
No. :lol

I was just joking. I don't want to take someones place because they were out shopping for a Black Friday bargain, whilst they were missing out on one here.

Though I must say it does add some alluring quality to the list. Smells good.
 
I haven't taken anyone off the list creech, just moved the "?" guys down. I just put them in the order I saw them interested in paints, but since they haven't offically said yes, to the bottom they go. I think Kuato paints in order of payment anyway, so I think as long as anyone is on the "first 10" list, it really isn't going to matter exactly where they are on the list.
 
You're the boss.

So what now? Just need Kuato to chime in and give us his details on where to send payment, yeah.

Smokin'.
