Rainman Spring Project: Loner/Rebel {P.W.Herman}

[MarfMaster]

Rainman hasn't even watched the movie yet? I find that odd...

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Same here.

He normally only does suggestions of stuff he also appreciates.

 

[karamazov80]

Maybe he just appreciates the look of the character?

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Guess so.

Is someone sending Rainman a copy of Pee Wees Big Adventure.
If not, I will. He will love it. I cannot tell you how many times I have seen it. Ok I will tell you. Ha Ha Ha

Got it covered brothers! Already in his hand!

UPDATE TIME!

I was chatting with Rainman today and he was asking about what expression to use for the Pee Wee sculpt. So Im putting this out there to see what we can all decide on. I'll then give the feedback to Rainman and I guess he will work it from there.

I've got a few pics I had on my photobucket but I will be adding some more stills from the bluray asap. He also wanted an accessories list. i told him thats pretty much covered.

Bike Horn
Tequila Shoes
Satans Helpers Vest
Hitchhiking Stick and Sack and Thumb
DX-Speck with Dog Bowl


I'm really shooting for facial expressions from the movie. It really captures his look at his best. So lets get this expression game popping!

They are all perfect

I think the last pic (smile) is the best representation of
Pee-WWe myself, and more versatile than the others.

While I'm here, I might as well ask...what's the story w/Rainnman? Is there a thread w/gen info on him or a website to order from or something? I'm new and a little confused. All I know is that I've seen his work on a couple things and it's remarkable. I have no clue how I would acquire a piece, though.

I need someone to educate me in regards to Rainman.

 

[karamazov80]

In terms of expression, one thing you may want to keep in mind is that Rainman always seems to go for a straight forward look with the eyes. All of those pics have Pee-Wee looking up and/or to the left. Even with McFly, when his photoshopped pics had him looking left, his painted heads looked straight on. You may want to see if he'll make a change for this release Magnus (because if you google pics of him, he almost never looks straight on in his recognizable looks), but I wonder if he'll be willing to do so. That seems to be part of his style.

Having said that, of those pics you listed, I like the first and last ones best. The 3rd look is a very recognizable look of his, but I think it could get a bit tiresome seeing that on the shelf every time I looked at Pee Wee. And the second one looks borderline sinister

He has a website that you have to register for: www.rainmanart.kr

He lists his pieces for sale at a specified time, and it's a first-come, first-served situation.

Thanks karamazov80, I'll check it out.

 

[toylion]

How about this expression.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Oh, hell yes! DarthMagnus, you better believe I want to be the one to paint this. PeeWee is going to be an epic custom. I may actually have to get one for myself.

 

[SilentSurfer]

I like the first and last pics above, but I think the last one is what most comes to mind when I think of him.

 

[Erik S]

I like the 1st and the 3rd.
I went over a ton of Pee Wee pictures and these are the best

I really really really want the bike parts.
Really

UPDATE TIME!

If the tequila shoes are in play and a lot of us interested in Pee Wee will want to pose him with his Tequila shoes why not make the facial expresion the one from the Tequila Dance scene?

Instead of Speck and bowl as the DX version why not have an alternate HS with a "Safe" expression like the two pictures above?

I don't think Doc needed two HS because I can't see someone who bought the DX version posing Doc with the regular head. They can always use the alternate head to bash another Doc, but for that they could have just gotten an unpainted headsculpt

If any figure deserves an alternate HS it should be Pee Wee. The more I think about it the more I realize you don't need Pee Wee's bike to capture the movie. The Tequila Dance scene is just as iconic, if not more, and posing him in that manner would be amazing, but to change it up a bit an extra HS would allow for different poses.

I agree with the other accessories:

Horn
Thumb
Hikers Bag
Tequila shoes
Bikers Vest
Texas Sign

 

[BlitzOUT]

^^

Two HS should be on the cards. I have no need for a little immobile dog. I'd also want a snack tray of sorts from the final scene with little chocolates and ice creams.

 

[eighthsamurai]

i like the 3rd one the most, followed by the 4th. but any expression would be cool. i also like that open mouth "ha ha" that he does, but might not be flexible enough.

one day HT or enterbay will develop flexible face technology, and pee wee would be the perfect candidate for it. i think i'd break his head in about 5mins going through all the expressions he could have

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Gonna be Rainman's most expensive piece yet with al those accessories I'd wager.
