Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

Love to see WGP take on number 5

Loved Peter Davidson in the role, shame it was short.

Coolio. I will mark your interest down over in the classic Who thread.

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- taking your interest lists!

Right now we have him on our schedules to sculpt next month. Also, we love hearing what expressions you prefer, so keep letting us know or posting your wish-pictures. It helps us gauge!

I'll maybe poke around for some good reference pictures. I wouldn't mind a little bit of a smile...

Here's my take

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

So complete. Was that Mr. Barlow's sculpt?

 

[Tekkaman Blade]

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

Billy B I think

Barlow did 1st,3rd, and the master.

Billy B did
5th,6th,Rose,10th,11th, and a couple 4ths.

Yes, the same Billy B who agreed to make our S18 Tom outfits and Planet of Evil Sarah Jane costumes then bailed six months in without a word or returning any e-mails, hamstringing the projects and leaving us just twisting in the wind.

Sometimes people appear and disappear in this hobby, Barlow has been gone for awhile now too, he made an announcement he would be selling new sculpts in Jan, but then never reappeared, before that we hadn't heard from him since almost the previous Jan.

For most it's a hobby and work can get in the way or some if pressured will vanish.

Speaking of Sarah, hows the head coming?

The difference was that this was business and not having the costumes done to support the heads means those heads sculptors don't get paid back because only a handful of people will buy the head without the costume, then they don't work for us anymore. The costumes should have been done last summer and we had to guess he wasn't doing them because he wouldn't respond.

It's why we commissioned a different Sarah Costume elsewhere. Each successive project failure also delayed the priority of our releasing the heads because ideally we want them released with the costume.

So it's a different situation than Barlow deciding to come and go, because that's his own business and effects only himself. He doesn't need to report to anyone. You don't know our conversations, but since I do let me tell you in this case Billy just didn't give a **** enough to simply bother writing back or giving us the courtesy of letting us know he couldn't/wouldn't feel like doing it any more which is just lazy and therefore rude since it was effecting other peoples income, and because I had told him I would get someone else if he couldn't do it and he kept telling me I was no problem and that he wanted to stay on. I gave him several outs.

Sarahs update was announced on the Classic Who thread yesterday. She is shipping to me next week.

Sorry to hear that I hope no cash traded hands at least. Non communication is unprofessional.

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

Well, here's a couple different examples of possible expressions. Anyone else got anything?

 

[SchmittyJames]

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

I vote for a smiling 11. Eyebrows raised with a big grin.

 

[William Shatners Toupee]

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

I love the pics! Awesome! I love the smiling Matt at the table as one of our expressions, but now we need the other one. Keep ideas and pics (and votes) coming!

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

I definitely want to get 11th Doctor season 5, Rose with sculpted hair, 9th Doctor,and Jack Harkness.

 

[drdandalek]

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

Also my vote for whech Matt Smith look from season 5 is from SlytherinPride pictures. I would suggest face of the newly regenerated Doctor with the more punkhaircut.

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

Man, I'm starting to wonder if you guys should consider doing an Amy head, now that the poo has apparently hit the fan with the BC version, to put it politely.

I say they just scrap adult Amy and give us the child version. Kids are easier to sculpt, right? LOL...

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

Say what? What happened?

 

[Lumos]

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

Didn't you hear? The thread has been temporarily closed, but BC just released some new photos of the final Amy figure, and the Internet EXPLODED.

Well, okay, not quite, but people on FB were very vocal about their complaints, as were people here. It just didn't look that good at all, at least not in many peoples' opinions. Bad looking hair, disappointing job on the face paint-up, and so on and so forth. BC has since removed the photos (and all the complaints made in the comments), and everyone is waiting for further news.

Suffice to say, lots of people are angry they put down money for a figure they no longer think looks worth the money.

Re: WGP- NU-DOCTOR WHO- S5 Matt Smith a go!

I missed it all.



But then, I cancelled my pre-order some time back...

Thanks for the update!
