Rainman project: Overlook Caretaker

[greatlakes6]

I agree that the Anton sculpt is definitely one his his top three (in my opinion). As far as the Bickle figures, I lean toward the Driver as the better likeness. When positioned like the movie promo where he is walking down the street with his head tilted down, the likeness is superb. My only issue really is the paleness of the skin tone.

So does anyone have some really good screen grabs of the trike? I've been searching for non movie references for awhile but I get the feeling this was movie specific. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

EDIT: misread

I'll see what I could come up with

Nice to see this thread has pulse

Manufacturing pics would be great but Im not sure they are out there. Movie shots wont highlight the trike as well as some other could. At this point I need anything. I have the Blue-ray but I can't pull stills off of it.

if Robbie is making the trike...then i'm in...

I'm making the trike and Rainman is making Danny to fit so its important to get good shots to scale from.

Help me sideshow freaks, you're my only hope!

It will be a run.

Awesome. Please count me in for that robbie.

 

[uscmhicks]

I'm sure they'll be a separate list come the time but count me in.

Needless to say I'm extremily interested. It's about time these two super powers joined forces!

I'm 100% in for the trike

 

[chilipep66]

ah well gee, Ive been saying all along the trike and Danny weren't a priority for me, but Robbie/Rainman collabs have essentially become my favorite thing about 1/6 customs! Im in too!

 

[chubbyman]

well shiz...gotta do what you gotta do. I'M DOWN for Trike DX set

 

[robbiethepainter]

Thanks guys. Not sure how the whole thing will go down, but Rainman asked if I would be interested in doing this together and of course I had to say yes. No question that he could have done the whole thing on his own, but I think I can produce a multi-media piece that would be too labor intensive for him to do as multiples on his own.

So... help a brother out and get me some pics if you can.

awesome and exciting update to this ongoing project. let's help the man out and get some pics rolling in.

Wow that is so awesome, congrats Robbie!

It's hard to source anything different than the usual pics that only show the back of the seat and the wheels. These aren't the greatest but at least you get a glimpse of the handle bars, grips, bell, pedals, rear rims, and axel/frame between the wheels. I know that you need more than a glimpse and that's why shots of the screen used prop on display would be ideal, but this is what I found for now.

I have to double check the Blu Ray but I'm not sure we even get a full frontal shot in the movie.
