Maybe because all of Rocco's life portraits look like wood carved sculpts.

HAHAHAHHAHHA...but don't they look better in hand?!?!?!....SMH...ok....i'll stop now...

Since Nathan said, he,s not taking anymore paint commissions on this head, and shortrounds wood carved quote ..

my jessie sculpt, as now gone in the bin

 

[philmah]

The talent is definitely there, just need to spend more time refining.

TO LATE IT,S IN THE BIN

 

[BlitzOUT]

Yep, that's yours.

Awesome! The sculpt is very rough, but at the end of the day it looks like Jesse, and that's all I care about.

 

[SilentSurfer]

After spending a day not looking at them through a magnifying lense, I am appreciating Jesse more. Picking up Wake's full build up figure, they don't look half bad.

 

[SilentSurfer]

I have loads of Rocco sculpts here waiting for paint at the moment. This is just my least fave. I'm really looking forward to Gus and the Ghostbusters.

When there's something strange...

 

[Wake]

You should have fun with Rocco's slimmer which should be arriving to you soon!

I can't wait...

What's going on with that strip of white in his mouth? Is that meant to be there?

You mean his teeth?!

 

[galactiboy]

Evidently teeth are a novel concept

 

[Bucky Underbelly]

Well, there is a lot of meth involved.

thank you! ive tried to tip toe around saying this for months. its not to diss the guy hes obviously talented, but the volume to which he cranks things out is just ridiculous, as is his prices for unpainted casts. twice as much as trevs with a fraction of the quality.. no thanks.

His One Big tooth

In you neighborhood...

Cool. That will be fun.

His One Big tooth

YOu want me to paint tiny gaps between his teeth.

 

[BlitzOUT]

You mean his teeth?!

Well, now that you mention it........ Although as hotslayer mentioned it's more like one big tooth.

Here's the thing, and to be fair I hate to hijack Nathan's thread as this page is about NATHAN'S awesome work, Rocco fills a void. He does the fringe characters *LIKE jesse, gus and mike... that other sculptors would 1) charge too much for, 2) take to long to complete or 3) wont do at all. So you gotta take the bad with the good.

I needed jesse in my collection. In fact I needed 2 of them. And a gus. and a mike... and I'll figure out a saul and hector later. And the only way to get one, that looks halfway decent, is Rocco. So be it.

BACK TO NATHAN! Whatcha got for us?! LOL
