Looking forward to seeing how that pulls together my man! I'm sure it'll be bad ass bash. Your starting with the right corner stones.

BTW, if anyone is interested, I read that someone was going to sell their VM brawler Bill. It's not in the FS section so I don't know if it sold yet.


ANY MORE PICS OUT THERE?????

Thanks man I hope so am realy pumped to get this finished and displayed also to get the pics up in this eagle eye hall of fame ...., lol
 
I didn't say Bill's value was 5-7k. I said I wouldn't be surprised if someone offered that much to buy Bill.

How much are people paying for Rainman one-offs these days?

Not sure what that number is, but its gotta be pretty expensive.

Priceless is pushing it. However, Bill has real value. But you can't expect for other figures to fetch these prices because Bill is doing so well. At the moment Bill seems to be what Carlito was to Kojun. A great peice, great subject matter. I think it's reasonable to expect Bill to reach upwards of $5000 in the near future. It's valued at about $2300-2500 based on several offers and second hand sales. Other factors must be considered as well like it has to be a full set, has the figure been modded in any way, how many times has one figure changed hands(Previous Owners), condition. I think all these factor in "real value", not just saying a figure is worth $3000 because that's what you paid for
it, especially if it is a one-off commission.

I didn't want to open a new thread or invade robbie's thread (again), so I'm bumping this one so those of us who are building new Butchers can share some progress and tips of what's being used and post links to parts and links to customizers offering their talents to build them.
With the re-release of the Rainman heads painted by Aeon, robbiethepainter's hat and shoes and Moe's coat, it is now possible to have this character in our collections. If you already own Rainman's or Velvet's Butcher figures, please continue sharing as well!
Anyway, today I finished making the waist band (or whatever is called) and would like to share a couple of pictures.

wow comm, thats awesome, how? please do tell,,,,your source or material....
 
That looks fantastic...was it hard to make and would you be interested in making a run hehe...

Not hard, but time consuming as everything custom. I went to Joann's fabrics to find the materials. Then measure, paint, cut, glue, etc.
Anyway, yeah, I can do a run. Would need at least 5 people so it's worth the time.:wink1:

Or... I can share the materials and you guys can do it yourselves. Give me a second so I can take pictures of the stuff.

Oh, and glue. Stretchy fabric glue or even crazy glue works.

Thanks, pop!

Note on the ribbon: Don't buy that cheap plastic ribbon we use to wrap presents. The one I bought is nice and soft made of polyester.
