That looks amazing Chalky! I agree that someone needs to make custom 1/4 jackets.

Have you thought about a custom holster and belt from MFisher?

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Congrats, Chalky! Your Indy looks amazing!

 

[Mightytrex]

pics as promised. Im really chuffed with how well this has turned out,
The head and arms have been repainted to match the skin tone of my tod indy pf, the jacket is a soveriegn studios jacket, the hat has been repainted, and the whip is from the tod pf which now has an uncoiled whip in his hand.
short round next please sideshow!

and one with flash.

Very Nice who repainted him?

That's a great rebuild /repaint of the PF there chalkyYT. Looks smashing.

I sense from people's posts about Sovereign Studios that these real leather1:4th scale jackets are no longer available.

Have they stopped making them ?

I'd heard about them and was hoping to pick one up.

Ive no idea to be honest, i got mine on a figure i bought from faststreetsofhongkong, so not from sovereign studios direct

That looks amazing Chalky! I agree that someone needs to make custom 1/4 jackets.

i have, but to be honest im quite happy with the one ive got, i may paint it to give it a more leathery look

Congrats, Chalky! Your Indy looks amazing!

thanks for all the comments guys!

i decided to paint him myself, ive dabbled with a few 1/6 figures so thought id give it a go. was pretty nerve racking!

Well I opened up mine today, I got it out of storage and it's been in there since inspection and repacked. Everything was perfect with a slight bit of stiffness, no cracks or peals exception of one tiny itty bitty spec that I could see with a magnifier. I didn't hesistate and went right away to my sealants and save my Indy, sleeves cuff on now sealed and actually got rid of the stiffness and replenished the leather.

I AM a HAPPY SKI!!!!

Thank you SIDESHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MarfMaster]

Hey Ski, what sealer did you use for yours, and how did you apply it? I need do that to mine...

 

[dvdwyn]

If they did it right to begin with there wouldn't be a problem.

Word, Marf.. I've got you!

Oh and I forgot to mention I matched the paint to the jacket and was able to dab that lil microscopic blemish.

Love your work Chalky.

That jacket is fantastic. Leaves the original for DEAD

 

[Natrix]

So why the big secret on what you sealed the jacket with, Ski?

I still need to do mine as well...

 

[bmarz1000]

I used a semi-gloss acrylic sealer on mine. Not sure of the brand but available at any hobby shop.

How far off does everyone think The Last Crusade PF is now that Sideshow seems to be working on the Legendary Scale version?

 

[EddyW]

I have some acrylic varnish (mat) in a spraycan, but what I still don't understand is how this varnish solves the fact that the glue inside the jacket is affecting the leather. Mine still looks good, though I feel the stiffness, so I really want to save what I can. Maybe some kind of leather grease or vaseline would also do the trick and block the glue?

Maybe we'll see one next year sometime, and released in 2013, just at a guess. Unless they decide to do a Henry Jones sr PF first.

Obviously with the LS Indy, on again/off again rumours about a lifesized bust, and the Indy on Horse piece that was just sneaked, Sideshow is staying in the Indy business for a while, and the Temple of Doom Indy pf finally sold out a couple months back, so they'll probably want to give the Indy pf's a short rest, but personally I'm actually more confident now that we will eventually see a Last Crusade Indy pf than I have been in quite some time.

Here's hoping anyway.
