with new jacket

Wow nice! Only the big buttons on the other jacket hold me back of participating in the auction when he was on ebay. I think you're going a good way

hey shadow, i give you props my friend, you did good with your compliments of wu's work,,,,nice to se that.....btw, your travis figures are awesome...,,,,,i won this bickle off ebay, and cant wait to get him,,,some adivse fell's, should i take the big snap buttons off the jacket? i will probably never close it..... and what do you guys think of the brothers hands for this..? to me they were ok, but just too big and long in the fingers.. a shame as they have great detail.......

I didn't make my compliments to wucasco only,I have bought his head too . because I was wrong and that head head is amazing with his repaint (he did a little fault too because he posted pics which didn't give to this figure any justice)...look by yourself the back pics... this head is the best travis seen ever..he has beaten the kai head too...


about the advice asked..

yes for sure if your intention is keep the jacket open you have to remove the buttons..it will be better..
I have the bros prod jacket the buttons are very very tiny and it has a zip too..but about the color is better the wucasco jacket..
about the hands: the prod bros hands are awful... maybe the hand that reperesent the final scene of the movie is nice but the paint is terrible...
have you bought this figure by wucasco or a bros prod one?, is a way different...
and you have right too.... my figure has nothing to compare with this... now I have the proof..

I am sorry if I am been rude with you...

In my humble opinion, I would not change hands by the hands of "brother production". The quality of hot toys makes them more realistic.
Those of "brother production" are too big.
In my opinion you get one of my best customs. I hope you like and enjoy it.

Here's where I am now with my paint.

Not finnished and the eyes need fixing I know but I see a likeness there.
Jeans and glasses are poor mans stand ins for now untill I get some better.
Honest opinions welcome, am I wasting my time with this sculpt as the more I look at it the more I'm confused?



And this is travis clapping, not holding an invisible mogwai

Nice, I really like the skin tone.

Nice, I really like the skin tone.

More accidental than deliberate as i messed up the stubble first time so its got the original paint coming through. Gunna sort the mouth and try adding stubble again fingers crossed. Any tips or updates?
