Thanks man, yeah the TTL bodies really are a great value

Re: MarfMaster's Mix

Yeah, a little slimmer than your standard truetype but basically the same aren't they.

Yup, #1 alternative to a TT imo!

Re: MarfMaster's Mix

Thanks Mag! He's on a TTL with a sculpted neck

Could you elaborate a little? I've never heard of such a thing.

I'm picturing something like the thing this guys wearing:

Sweet and versatile turtleneck! Imagine, the ability to turn any boring shirt into instant awesome!

That's not quite what I meant by sculpted, maybe "molded" is a better word?

TTL body with "sculpted neck"

If the TTL body weren't shinny, it would be better so you don't have to repaint the chest.

You could always just dulcote it! Han's body is just sporting some dulcote to kill the sheen and it ended up matching pretty well.

Ah, I see.



Do they make Narrow shoulder TT's with this option?

Hot Toys has used these types of bodies for some of their figures (Goemon) but they don't offer them individually like they should...along with muscle bodies

Re: MarfMaster's Mix

Yeah it's hard to find a truetype that looks good with an open shirt figure.

Sent you a PM Marf. Nice setup.

Re: MarfMaster's Mix

Got the heads for Marty and Doc in. Unfortunately the castings are suffering from a pretty bad case of the airbubbles, so these are just going to be placeholders while Spenser sends me replacements suitable for paint.

Mcfly looks awsome Marf. Great job on him so far. He will really come to life once painted

Thanks man, I plan on leaving him in some pretty talented hands!

Re: MarfMaster's Mix

What air bubbles? Those look good to me?

Re: MarfMaster's Mix

Cool but why are some of their heads missing?

Re: MarfMaster's Mix

They look alright from a distance, but close up there are some pretty noticeable holes. I was also told that if air bubbles are present in a sculpt, dormant ones can pop later down the road after it has been painted

Cool but why are some of their heads missing?

The heads are either being cast or being painted

One more headless bash down, thanks to the awesome paint work of the one and only Seb! Stoked to have House glaring at all who pass by his shelf!
