Thanks for re-posting Teddy. I was fearing those pics may be gone forever! Just jaw-dropping work there, and like I said before, I think it's as good as anything Rainman has done, sculpt-wise. You're gonna have a truly special piece when all is said and done.
I for one am looking forward to see the finished figure. That HS is just beautiful.
Don't know what the rest of his coat looks like, but what I can see it looks a lot like the overcoat James Dean came with, the figure of him in a suit and black turtleneck and camera.
"negative" or not, you still have people who want to see progress on the project, while others at the same time are completely entitled to suggest, based off past evidence, thier fear of you potentially selling this off when the next thing comes along, like you did mismatching your 1 of 1 bloody bill with a normal version.
On one hand, Im happy for you your getting your dream figure (of the moment) but on the other, I can't help but think it is a bit disrespectful of Rainman to post your one off commission. I've had and known of several artists who specfically ask for photos or threads not to be posted of their one off works, as it puts them in a very difficult position with regards to the rest of thier buyers. If rainman isnt one of these, then hey, more power to ya for posting. I just think its wrong for you to delete your previous thread to cover up some very valid points made by others, which by the way, were far more positive than negative)
Yes I agree the custom thread was largely positive but the last couple of pages started going off on a tangent!
Yes I sold bloody bill to fund the next rainman project but I did already have the normal version. Why can't I sell something to fund the next project by rainman if I think that is what I need to do?
Well let me tell you this won't ever be for sale, I have a bit more respect than that. I don't think I have ever been a flipper. Sometimes I have not been able to personally fund something so I have had to sell something but on the whole I personally fund. Also when I do sell I sell for what I paid for it or less!
Why can't I show this piece and it be enjoyed by collectors here? I had the dedication to make it happen so why can't it be shown? There was such low interest in this chracter in the wishlist I don't know why the problem now?
