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

[superdoug]

thanks for the help.

Chris is the purchase page on your website or is it somewhere else? is there any examples of Kuato's work?

Nanjin can i pm you about the uniforms or do I just post here?

Sorry again for the questions.

Actually, I already have a price. But I am trying to squeeze in a phaser rifle for Kirk and one additional item without adding any more cost. I need the money to do another production. Once all the prototypes are completed, I will start a post to gather names of those who are interested. FYI, I will only provide these uniforms and accesssories as complete sets. For example, no Kirk only, or Spock only, or just the phaser, or just the uniforms, and such; you have to get the complete set. I have no intention to make money; therefore, I don't want any left overs. Please do not PM me at thetime being. I have to delete tons of messages everyday.

Hello Chris,

I sent you a few emails. Have you received them?

Hey my friend, yes I have them. Please bear with me, I'm wading through a pile of emails. Trying to get through a bunch while I can kep my eyes open tonight. I'm living on about 4 hours sleep a night lately!

Yes, it's on my site, here is the link: FOR SALE

Click on "Heads", then "Star Trek".

Kuato's work can be seen here: KUATO

I haven't talked to Kuato in a while, so I need to make sure he's prepared for all the heads coming his way!

I'm interested... so it will be buying a full set of 3 or nothing correct? I was thinking of only doing Kirk and Spock, but if these turn out as nice as I think they will I guess I'll be in for the full set.

Looking forward to your update!

Can't wait to get the update nanjin. I've been in this since the beginning and have some bodies ready, which just need proper clothes and accessories. In fact, Hot Toys have new bodies with a slimmer build and narrower shoulders coming out. I think those bodies will be perfect for Spock and McCoy.

 

[meanstreak]

The wish list is in my head at the moment!

I'm thinking about Harry Mudd, Green Orion slave girl, Capt. Christopher Pike (cage version, not Menagerie), Cage version Spock, Kahn (both versions), etc.

Not sure what will actually get done, but it's a start!

Should I create a separate thread for sign ups for the new Trek film?

sounds Like a good idea

Yes do that. This thread is for REAL Trek.

Can't agree more!

All right last set of questions I think. What's the difference between the solid and drilled necks? Do they work on the Hot Toys or Sideshow Bodies? If I selected painted does that mean they'll go to Kuato and if so should I be working it out with him first? Sorry again I haven't done this before so I'm learning.

I offer drilling in case you don't want or can't do it yourself. The neck must be drilled out so it can be mounted on a small neck adaptor that can then be fitted to a body like a Hot Toys Truetype. If you have a dremel or similar rotary tool you can do this yourself. Just be aware it generates a lot of dust you don't want to be breathing, so wear a dust mask!


We have an issue with painting. Unfortunately, Kuato, due to some personal issues, will be unable to take on painting these as we originally planned. Alternate painting plans are being arranged and I will update you soon.


BTW, never worry about asking questions! Questions are good.

Hey Chris, do ya mind if I post a thread "Possible commission thread for Star Trek (2009) headsculpts by Chris Howes"??? Thanks

 

[samueljd]

Yes do that. This thread is for REAL Trek.

You got that right.

Sure, that's cool!

But please do me a favor.... In big bold underlined italic red letters, repeated several times, tell people it will be a while until I can get to them. I keep telling folks this, but it tends to get forgotten in the excitement. And no, I don't know exactly when!

 

[C.Howes_Sculptor]

You got that right.

Do I sense a schism?

 

[samueljd]

Do I sense a schism?

Well, all Trek is good Trek (at least so far), but TOS is the originator and will always be something special. Just don't want the classic to be forgotten with all the new generated hype. BTW, I enjoyed Next Generation too, maybe we could see some of those characters produced in the near future, after all the original crew are finished out of course.

Saw the new ST movie last night and it was brilliant!
Lots of fun to watch, good back-stories to the characters, great story. Highly recommended!

 

[superdoug]

alright, i think i get to order these guys on friday after pay day comes in. kirk and the dr. look great so far.

nanjin, i really hope i'm lucky enough to get one of those sets of clothes and such otherwise i have a feeling they'll be wearing the new 12" uniforms.

has anybody made any of the female uniforms as well?
