The Skipper by Iminime & Rainman

[PopCultKid]

This is a serious improvement! It is still off a bit though. Don't know if I'm going to pull the trigger yet. I'm gonna have think about this one. I'm definitely WAY happier with this revision then the original reveal.

I think this is proof positive that when a sculpt has gone too far in a certain direction, it can't be tweaked into perfection. To get it perfect it needs to be started from scratch. I'm hoping there's enough wiggle room in the Space Trucker sculpt to tweak that back on track and it doesn't end up looking like...well... a tweaked pt.2 face with long hair.

Much better than V1 could it be improved more? Definitely, but I think this is as much as Iminime can improve on it without completely starting over.

 

[PopCultKid]

Of course, I know this is the end of the road on improvements to this particular piece . I'm just saying I think sometimes a sculpt is better off redone from scratch if it was initially too far off because you probably can't squeeze or tweak perfection out of it

Either way this has come a long way and I'll probably end up going for it because the price plus VIP discount is attractive. It's just not a no brainer re-reveal to me and I have to think about it. I'll probably cave though

yes please mate, the phone-shots have been always the best ones that gives you the feeling of having it in-hand. and don't get me wrong with my post, i just can't see that much a difference, because of the photoshop, the shadows etc. just would love to see them how they look in hand and to decide which one i should take

thanks a lot in advance

Version 1 painting is only prepared 10pcs currently, so if anyone wants to change the version to 1, need to wait for few weeks.

Ver.2 is available.
I checked the painting one by one and it's not bad. I hope you guys like it

Thanks

Denny

Just for convenience Im puting direct image links here of the comparisons. The original is on the left and the second revision on the right

 

[BlitzOUT]

Looks loads better I recently finished season 1 and so far I'm loving the show, but because I haven't known the show and the characters for very long, I'm prohibiting myself from buying this figure. Nevertheless I think you have just about nailed the look.

 

[meth head]

Wow that is way better!!! That revised sculpt is superb!!!

 

[JefftheCollector]

Definitely better

 

[K.bowen]

[karamazov80]

It is still available on their site:

[PopCultKid]

Still not 100% but it is a huge improvement. I like the outfit a lot as well as the robe and PJ's. I think this improved enough for ne to pull the trigger. For the price I don't think I could say no....
