Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Damn Les!
That's truly magnificent my friend!
Congrats to you for such fine work and to all who are getting those.
 
Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Put me down for the Road Duel #1 version with the eyes looking up slightly like your pic. And I am all paid up.
 
Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

What a lineup!. I think I'll go for the Pencil Trick version 2 with the darker hair and eyes looking straight ahead.
 
Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Les, I ordered the "pencil trick" head so I still want to stick with that but can you pain the eyes looking off for me? thanks :D

Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Joker heads are off the f'n chart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wish I had gotten in on these :duh.......:monkey2........Is it too late?

Les, you are the ^^^^in' MAN!!!!!
 
Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Other than ALL the other work I am doing...and please folks, I will ship what I can tomorrow and Monday. I am TIRED, but working. So know that, and if you have any requests for sending your stuff first, etc., I will send it as I can. Unpainted heads will be Monday. TOO much to send tomorrow and I am way overbooked to ship all out at one time. No way I can do that.

SHORT CONTROLLED BURSTS! :gun

OK...

For you Joker head people....

OK. I am offering FOUR varaints. The difference you may see between a couple of them are purely hair app and eyes or some minor detail element.
NO WAY I can paint these EXACTLY like another. No way. Just not possible.

But, I will try to adhere as much as possible to these. The ONLY variations I will allow for from head to head, is eye position. DEFAULT is straight ahead. I might do off to one side a but, left more often than right, but both are possible. ONLY when requested in an email to me, will I do extreme eye positions. I have to have a written record I can go back to, so please email me and let me know your prefs.

I CANNOT GUARANTEE HAIR SHAPE AS IT IS ALMOST ENTIRELY CHANCE EACH TIME! I can skew it some...but these are about what I can do...so please, NO HAIR SHAPE REQUESTS!

And there is time to get your eye requests to me. I will not be getting to paint these until March 28th-ish at the soonest, as I am seriously busy with other heads in the way. I will only take Joker pref requests (You can post them here of course and I will make note of them also) and make sure I have them correct until then.

Just remember, I am painting all the time, so I can't do all the messaging and emails also at one time. Just remember that and work with me. Thanks all.


Here are the first drafts... Enjoy. I did...



THE MENU:
Pencil trick1 (cleaner hair)- Pencil Trick2 (darker hair) - Party Crasher (eyes just example)- Road Duel/Interrogation - Interrogation (later beatup look)

With my old original custom in for good measure, so you can see all the heads I have painted so far....

And the singles...

Pencil Trick 1 (clean hair)

Pencil Trick 2 (darker hair variant)

Party Crasher (eyes can vary)

Road Duel/Interrogation 1

Interrogation 2 (really messed up!)

Again, I hope these look varied enough for you to easily pick from. I will not do in between versions. No time to develop that. Just these. Eyes are all that can be decided on.
If you don't pick any variation, I will just paint either Pencil Trick or Party Crasher, as a default head, with a standardized straighter eye look.
Just so you know.


More to come....LOTS more....

...and if you don't believe me...step a little closer...

Note: lighting may vary from photo to photo, so don't worry about lip color and shades so much, as they are all pretty much accurate from one to another....and from the scenes as I can discern them.
Also, please remember, I am not an airbrush artist. Everything you see painted by myself is done BY HAND, always has been, always will be, so I will try to blend as best I possibly can, but I do NOT do airbrush type blends and in EXTREME MAGNIFICATION, beyond reason, you may see brushstrokes, however minute.
Thanks for your understanding.

BRILLIANT!
 
Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Great work, I will go with the Road Duel/Interrogation 1 like in the picture for mine.

Thanks, Les
 
Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Incredible work Les. Most impressive.
 
Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

I must say with all the pressure this man has had over the past year and still have the ability to deliver amazing work is beyond me! You may have stress in your life Les but you also have amazing talent and that talent reflects making many people happy so good for you! :peace
 
Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Thanks all. Glad you guys like the choices. More on them in a minute.

Prefs are coming in fast and furious. A few changed minds (due no doubt to not having seen the alternatives yet) but good to see, and are being recorded accordingly. I need to note for all that if you click on my website address, I have posted an easy to find link to my email (click my banner below) for those that wish to email their prefs from here on out. Why I didn't have the addy there under my name all this time is a mystery.
Anyway, it's easier to find now.

Went and got a LOT more shipping supplies today. I had planned to be up and packed by noon, but finishing the Jokers and about 15 other heads, put me under the covers til well after noon. Not happy about that, as my Dad had to wake me up, but it's Saturday so what can I do but go get more shipping supplies and move on. Accomplished something there anyway.
All that was to ship today will be on the BIG MONDAY FML SHIPATHON now. All Hickses and relateds, and most all of the unpainted heads, as stated, and a few more. All I can afford to ship anyway.

And again, thanks guys.
Terminator, thanks for that last note. I appreciate that anyone can see that I LOVE this stuff, and to not be able to do it as I wanted to, for months, was torture for me. It was NOT time off, not intentional. Therefore, now that I am back, as it were, I am trying to make up for lost time. This is what I have tried to promise all you guys. This level of my best work. I appreciate anyone that likes it, and understands that I am here for you guys, not the other way around. Anyone that doesn't know that, doesn't know me.

Anyway, I won't lie to you. it feels GREAT! I haven't had this much motivation and sheer "groove" in months and months now. So, you all will benefit. Those that have waited so long, even the impatient. They will benefit as well. But those that have been patient with me, just know, there is more coming to you that just these paints. You have my gratitude as well. For what it's worth. And that best translates for me into my finished work. You guys and your support this last year have not only helped literally keep me alive, but motivated to keep trying. I was in a pretty deep, black hole, not that long ago, so know I am VERY, VERY grateful.

Now, enough mush. Onward to more stuff! :rock

Taking notes and painting still....
Your friend,
Les



PS: ANYONE wanting a new, or heretofore, unsolicited Joker head, any form, from me, had best email me asap, and be prepared to wait til AFTER all the other work I have on the dockets, this run included, are all done first. Those guys have earned their slots. But, I will do a VERY LIMITED run of Jokers, and maybe, a few more Hicks, AFTER this current series of all work is done by April 15th. That means I won't start on new sets until after that....
After which, I WILL NOT PAINT A LEDGER JOKER OR A HICKS AGAIN! LOL!!! EVER! I hope to put all I have in these, and get as far away from these heads as I possibly can, opening the door for new and exciting projects. So, get with me soon and I will try to work out a "Before the barn door closes" set of Joker heads and Hickses. After that, too late. NO MORE! Thanks guys for wanting any of my stuff.

Oh, and a big, big sale of stuff is still coming too! Just haven't had time to get it all together! Sorry! SOON! I promise!

Not a bad choice to be had concerning these Joker Paint ups :lecture
