Thanks for the continued support, guys. It really means a lot and I truly do appreciate it.
To touch on some of Lee's comments.......
When you're working on a run of something you need to step back occassionally and take a breath or you'll start to turn out really crap work. It's the same principal as sleep; sometimes your brain just needs to reboot. In these times you can do things: you can sit on your butt and do nothing, or you can work on something fresh. I'm not one to sit and do nothing, so I work on something else. Usually, it's a headsculpt. I can get a sculpt from scratch to about 65% in 2-3 hours. Then it goes on a shelf and I go back to work. I'll mess with it a few minutes here and there over the next couple weeks. I even work while I'm eating, food in one hand and headasculpt in the other. I just posted a new Loomis sculpt in the horror section. That thing started about a month ago and, here and there, I finished it the other day. It will sit on the rack now until I can find time to pour a mold.
The Crow figures were done first simply because there were fewer of them to do. I'm rotating; a few days on one thing, a few on another. I wasn't bumping the Crows ahead or anything, that just how it worked out due to the math.
With the few other "new" projects I'm taking orders for, those are being done on a preorder basis. I made it very clear with the Indy stuff that none of it would even go into production until mid January. That's not really a "new" project, as Indy is something I've made for years. I didn't need to sculpt or design anything, I already had everything.
