Re: Dirk Benedict/Richard Hatch interest thread

How is this being done? Hand sculpt or 3D in the computer?

Z-Brush on computer.

Any update on the Dirk Benedict or Hatch sculpts ?

No update to give yet other than Hatch, Seymour, and Benedict are all being worked on. I know the delay is frustrating, but we love Classic Galactica to death and the pay-off will be worth it!

I'm glad to hear about the progress being made on them. I'm still "in" for the Hatch and Benedict sculpts to replace the poor ones Majestic did. The outfits, and gear are great on them. But the bodies and the head sculpts on Apollo and Starbuck are bad. I wouldn't mind getting some HT True Types for them someday.

I'd be interested in an Athena if that one gets made. The Amok one obviously won't happen

From out of the great void something approaches!

Here is our new take on Starbuck. Thoughts?

Re: WGP's Classic Battlestar Galactica interest thread

I think this one looks much better than the previous attempt.

Just came across this thread...I am down for both a Starbuck and Apollo!

Same here. It is great to find out that someone finally is going to make this right!!!

SO guys - are you happy with this? Can we get this baby printed or what?

Looks good to me. The smirk is great.

Re: WGP's Classic Battlestar Galactica interest thread

As eager as I am {was?} to get this, I'm sorry I just can't commit to it, yet. As I said above, maybe once I see a painted version the likeness will show itself to me.

Re: WGP's Classic Battlestar Galactica interest thread

Thanks everyone. Starbuck is going to print then. There will be updates about an Apollo sculpt soon.

The Flash Gordon movie head has just been completed, as has our Sarah Jane head from Doctor Who. It's beginning to feel like the 70's around here!

Re: WGP's Classic Battlestar Galactica interest thread

Wow, here's a surprise for both you AND me, gang! I Just gave Apollo to our new (second) head sculptor Chu yesterday (who did our recent Flash Gordon and Sarah Jane Smith heads from Doctor Who), and I already got an in progress shot of him and it looks awesome! There could still be several revisions. The hair is just a shape right bow that gets finished last, but I'm loving it! Just wanted to share the excitement. Apollo and Starbuck will be going on sale at the same time.

Re: WGP's Classic Battlestar Galactica interest thread

Just saw this and I gotta say, I'm not too sure about that Starbuck smirk. His lower lip looks way too fat. That's just my honest opinion.

But that Apollo is looking great, especially in the mouth and nose area. The eyes and forehead area look off though. Add some skin texture to it and it would look even better!

WOW Surfing found the thread again and the great updates. I would be interested in the Jane Seymore, Athena HS Basically all the figures Majestic was slated to do. I will be buying the heads when ready after the first of the year. Saving a little on shipping plus we might get a look at sample uniforms/outfits.
