By quality do you mean realistic looking or long lasting. I don't think the answer to how to make rubber 1:6 anything last has been discovered.
Perseus and barney arms aren't rubber it's molded plastic.

I think thats why he wanted rubber sleeves.

Also with those rubber sleeves you would need them to be wider at the top so they can be attached to the shoulders as not to leave the shoulder joint exposed.
I have seen some of the sleeves used and all they do is cover the elbow joint and look a bit rubbish imo.

I'm sorry to say, we're not quite that advanced to pull off something like this.
Just making the rounds and posting some updates. The torch flames are being sent out for casting this week, so hopefully in a couple weeks, we'll have them back and ready to go.
Final pics of our Colin Clive sculpt have been posted and he will also be sent off for casting along with our Max Blue Heeler dog sculpt.
Several small items should be arriving soon from a different caster including some Gold Bars ala James Bond Goldfinger, some Coffee Mugs, the Banjo and Gun for Tallahassee and the Knee and Shoulder pads for Max.

OK, need some torch flame feedback. Whether you want them or not, do you think they should be cast in a clear yellow, or orange per the picture below. The orange would probably need less modification, but someone doing a fancy paint job might like the yellow as a base instead. They will be cast in only 1 of these colors, so I have to choose and let the caster know. Thanks for your opinions!

How much is it?
If you're referring to shipping in general, it depends on the weight of the package.
If you're referring to the price of the torch with flame, I don't know yet, and won't until I determine the final cost of making them.

Another vote for orange -- too bad you can't have them mixed together a bit to reflect real fire being different colors at times. Will these fit on the torches that are out already?
Also, water bottles!!

I agree, but if that is not an option then I would go with orange.
Yeah, can't have them mixed as that would add to the production cost, which is already at it's limits of what I'm willing to pay for the castings.
Yes, they will fit the unlit torches that we have already sold. We'll offer enough flames to cover those we've already sold, and the rest will be sold with a torch.
Oh, and what water bottle design would you be wanting? I will look into it, but getting small items like that cast tends to cost more than they're worth. I mean, would you be willing to pay $5-$6 for a water bottle, and would a lot of people buy them at that price? I'm learning many casters charge more for small items than I expected.
