Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

Hi guys. Been a long week. Storm after storm here, TIRED of RAIN! (storms actually) So things stay unplugged. Been painting and packing when I can. Had a visit for a few days from my sister and her family (to check in on Ma), with her two boys, ages 8 and 10, so you know how popular Uncle Les' room was. Had to keep them off YOUR stuff and still work when I could.
Stuff to ship this week. Look for an update as soon as I can get to it. Specific updates will be in emails to each of you as things ship, so please wait until you get a shipping email to ask about stuff. There is a lot coming (and the shipping coffers are getting dry, so look for that sale of mine soon). I can't answer for each of them at one time yet, but will as time allows. Thanks for understanding, guys.

if you guys got hit with the rain even half as much as we did i feel for you. it's strange going an entire week without having the sun pop through the rain and clouds. sure made the nice weather on monday seem even better though.

Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

One more done...

The MUMMY!

A totally reworked Sideshow head and hands version of the 1932 Imhotep Mummy that I replaced the body on, as the Buck was not accurate, and was way too bulky and non-posable. He is totally rewrapped and repainted.
He is FINALLY done, and will be shipped out as soon as I can. Probably late next week.

The new one is of course in the middle of all these shots. He is as posable as his delicate wrappings will allow, and he can do most of the mummy-esque poses, hands across chest, etc., way more than he could do as a Sideshow guy, so I am glad to finally have him done. took four tries and a couple of different bodies to get him looking like Karloff wrapped and not a guy in a big sock.

This one's for Amarcord. Hope you enjoy him upon arrival.
He's really overdue, so he had to come ahead of some headpaints so I could get him out by this week.


With my Unreworked Imhotep, and custom Kharis figures...

And a video on YouTube showing this one and my two some more... I didn't want to lose the opportunity to show all three at one time...

Enjoy!

More headpaint updates coming shortly.
BIG Sale also. Must make shipping money for all this loot and get it all out of here and to you guys!

Amazing work Les!

You are indeed a giant among insects my friend.
The body looks brilliant under the wrappings, really creepy. Congrats!

I so need to track down a Mummy now. Only main monster I had to pass on originally. I'm sad I did, especially after what you did with him!

Re: LES WALKER - All NEW Custom Works 2009

WOW. Sideshows Mummy was always a sore spot with me because he was barely poseable... What body did you use if I may ask? Looks SO much better!
