Possible commision thread for Spock, Kirk and Mc Coy by Chris Howes!

[nanjin]

Some more pictures. If these are good, then I am more than half way through the accessories prototypes. I am only waiting for 2 more new prototypes, pants and McCoy's trifold med bag. Then the rest are just adjustments.

 

[SpawnFan]

Those look absolutely amazing! I'd say the sculpt is perfect but I am not a Star Trek nut so not sure how accurate it all is lol.

And I hope those will get painted up real good!

 

[Spenser]

Nanjin I have to say I am very impressed with what you’ve done for this project.

 

[abake]

Simply fantastic dude!
Bring 'em on!

Now all we need are a few headsculpts to go with them...

 

[Reinhardt]

amazing work Nanjin!!!!!! I am floored! the only comment is the grill on the communicator. Are you going to be doing that?

 

[SpawnFan]

Yeah if only we could get some headsculpts of James Tiberius Kirk, Spock and Leonard H. McCoy.....

 

[Spartan Rex]

Lookin good.
Very interested in a set as Ive got the heads that scifi metropolis did but were rejected.
(Friggin idiots)
Nanjin, the boots seem good but if you need reference for all the gadgets lmk.
Pleather medic pouch with magnet?
Two tricorders in a set? Medical and science?
I would seriously kill for a 1/6th Phaser rifle that Kirk used in the pilot episode.
If you can make this happen somehow, my childrens children would praise your name for generations.
Also, you mentioned the fabric didnt seem right for the shirts.
As it would happen I was going to do my own uniforms and went to huge fabric supplier (the biggest west of the Mississippi river) and found what I believe was a great match for command gold and science blue.
If you want a sample lmk.
Obviously I didnt buy enough for all the orders but if your artisans cant find a good match I could be a go between.
Anyway good job Nanjin.

Maybe we could put together some kind of commission...?

Spawnfan was doing the old, hint, hint, nudge, nudge.

Chris Howes is working on all 3 sculpts for us.

I heard good things about Ada!

lol icruise was also doing ye old hint, hint, nudge, nudge.

 

[icruise]

Yeah, that was a little joke (I've already paid for all three heads). It just seems like the focus of this thread has shifted from the heads to the accessories, since we haven't heard anything from Chris in a long time. Has anyone actually PMed him about this? I saw a response by him in another thread not that long ago.

 

[SpawnFan]

I asked him in his other thread about these heads and he said they were coming, nothing specific... :/... except that Spock would be shown 2 weeks ago maybe and obviously we got bupkis.

And for the record, these would be done a month ago per the original planning.

 

[abake]

Yeah, it seems real life got in the way of our beloved Star Trek crew...
Too bad, as I'm also waiting for a RE2 Milla to enter the sculpting stage and neither seem to be moving forward.

Hello, can you email me: [email protected]? I want to buy a small piece of the material from you a.s.a.p. so the production company can match it. Please reply ASAP!!!!!

You guys don't think the boots are too shiny? Believe me, the original material catches attention. When you look at the figure, you will look at its boots first. If it is semi-gloss, then it is perfect. I am requesting a re-make of the boots with different material. I am recommending the material which DID used for the WW2 German officer long boots. Yet, the shape of the boots are good.

Spartan Rex, can you post the head sculpts that you have from scifi metropolis? I really want to see them.

I am making the medical bag. The prototype is in work. We should see something soon.

Well, I am doing these outfits according to each character. Therefore, K: Top, Bottom, Boots, Phasers, Communicator, as one package. Then S n M will have their individual Tricorder (actually is a same one), and M will have a medical bag and medical accessories in addition.

You should have let me know earlier about that phaser rifle. I think it is a cool item too. I don't think it will cost that much either. But now is kind of late and hard to have them make another item, unless they made a mistake somewhere down the road and I force them to make one. This is not what I hope for. If I request them to make one now, most likely they will add something new to the bottom of my bill which becomes a "open" end order. Plus, I think most people only wants the "standard issue". Making one more item will make everyone pays more. This is not what I want. Nevertheless, see what I can do (I will really try because I like it too!).

Rex, please let me know if you can send me some samples of the material that you found.

Ironman118 mayve posted picts of the sculpts that he has in this thread or the Howes thread. Mine is the same as his.

Could you ask what a separate commission or "one of" would cost for the rifle might be?
Ive got to have one for my Kirk.
He'd look like a real bad ass with it.
Puuuuuhleeeeese?
Sent you an email.

I don't know. I will find out. I might be able to squeeze it into the production if my timings are right. Please send me more detail pictures or blue prints!

 

[Reinhardt]

Because this production is so small, no one is willing to do the metal screen for the communicator. So I have to settle it with "screen" look pattern (Imagine if I can do a full scale production, everything will have more details). The phaser 1 n 2 are what I want. Individually detailed and can be attached together.

Not a problem on the grill Nanjin. The details are so amazing as it is on these accessories, that they will look gorgeous even without the grill.

Thanks again for all of this.

I agree, plus on this small a scale, a grill wouldn't hold up well or have the best detail. I look forward to seeing the pants.
