Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

Terribly sad news.
Its like Christmas won't be coming afterall.
Does that mean maybe we'll get Baltar by the sme time so the Colonials will have an enemy to battle?

No, but if you drink enough eggnog this season you might have trippy dreams of warriors on the ice in The Gun on Ice Planet mixed up with stop-motion elves who want to be dentists, heat misers, and the abominable snowmen. The Hector and Vector can remind us all in song of the true meaning of christmas.

Oh man, I think I just made the Star Wars Holiday special Galactica style. Quick, throw in Betty White! (She's the only Golden Girl left alive!)

I've waited this long for true BSG, I suppose a little longer won't hurt [that much]. It just seems worse to lose to Keaton and/or anything related to him.

Down for (subject to end result) a Bendict and Hatch for my Classic BSG makeovers (also interested in clothes etc again subject to)

Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

Just wanted to update here and say Sean is supposed to begin work this week on the Dirk enedict head! Meanwhile I am looking into micro-embroiderers now to do the Galactica jacket and shirt patches (and Flash Gordon and Ming emblems).

We will be doing Starbuck and Apollo for sure, but beyond that it will be up to you guys to show us 15 people interested per character.

This shouldn't be hard because fifteen really isn't that high and I expect more people will get enthused for further characters once the main two are out and start generating excitement. It would be a shame once the male costumes are made not to get enough people to at least make a Boomer head and finish off the main male warriors.

By the same token, if we get Athena made and a female pilot outfit, it would also be a shame not to at least also get Sheba made.

So once these are made and you own them, make sure to show them around and get a buzz going so we can make everyone else.

Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

Alright, it's March, the month I targeted for the first of the Galactica heads!

I like giving updates, even when they are small because it lets you know things are actually going on still behind the scenes.

As mentioned before, the Dirk head is being worked on now. I would estimate we will be ready to show you the finished head within a week, week and a half. Sean is doing a few heads at once so I really don't know for certain, other than he's far along and it is looking good.
It could literally be done tomorrow (laugh).

On the schedule we are on now that would make the Starbuck head ready for release (once he goes to printer and is then molded and cast) by the end of this month, beginning of the next!

At this point I can confirm we will be releasing the head right when it is ready and not waiting to release it with the nice Colonial Warrior outfits we will be making too, since we figure you've waitied long enough.

The uniform will be out a month or two later. I got confirmation from an embroidery/patch place today they will be able to make us the tiny patches we need for the uniforms, now i just need to see a sample to make sure it will look in scale (even though it is only 11MM wide so should be fine).

Apollo is at 11 interested, so hopefully we will reach 16!!!

Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

Maybe its the angle [hope its the angle], but I'm not feeling Starbuck there.

 

[William Shatners Toupee]

Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

Not to worry, W.I.P. dude. Personally, I see a lot of him in there.

Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

You know I think your all right - too much face - more starbuck needed!!

Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

Alright gang, we finally have something to show you here! Benedict was a pretty hard likeness to get so we wanted to show you what we have and see if you guys are happy with it or if you had any comments.

Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

Nose is about right imho opinion but the furrow in the brow doesnt scream starbuck getting the likeness right is 90% capturing the soul is harder

More happiness for me in the expression hatch was the moody one

Superb work despite my small critques
