    Nov 19, 2008 - Darth Maul display -updated 3-14-12 new pics w/outer robe see post #121 #1

    Here's a pic of my Darth Maul display.
    It's the first one since I attached the finished bust to the mannequin (which is easily removable).
    It will be complete once the new eyes are finished and I make some adjustments to the body.
    Once that is completed, there will be a proper photo shoot and an updated page on SWP.

    Gino, i almost hate it to write always the same when you showoff one of your lifesizes, but...

    AMAZING!

    i΄ve seen Phils sculpt for so many times now but it always makes me speechless to see how lifelike it is!
    seeing it together with your mannequin and robes it΄s even more so...

    absolutely top notch friggin amazing work!

    one of my favorite all time baddies

    it's funny, you look at something like this and your eye still wants to nitpick, so please don't take this the wrong way...i think it's literally 99% perfect

    but i think the hands and gloves look a bit big and bulky to me?....specifically, the hand on the lightsaber seems to stand out as being too big for sure

    again, just a MINOR nitpick and i hate to even mention it

    LOVE the sculpt and costume!

    No prob. Brad.
    I agree about the gloves. The problem is much like the Frank Thomas boots, they have been out of production for a long time. The only pair of gloves I have ever been able to find was XL. I do hope to at some point have them reproduced in size M.

    His body is going to get an overhaul before the new photo shoot for my gallery. His new gloves won't be ready by then, but I'm sure I'll take all new pics once I have them as well.

    I appreciate all the kind words. Makes me want to take more pics!

    Absolutely.
    It's the emperor.
    There are progress pics of the head on SWP.

    I'm working on the robes independently with my seamstress. Won't be too long before I have something to show.

    Seriously, thanks guys.

    Right this second, the mannequin is getting a makeover. I stripped it down and started re-sculpting/adjusting the musculature in foam.
    I'll take some new pics once I'm done, probably sometime tomorrow as long as you guys aren't sick of seeing it.

    My God, Gino, this has to rank up there with the absolute BEST the RPF has ever produced in any category. The likeness is other-wordly and the attention to detail is nightmarishly precise.

    Like others have said, it looks like production stills from the costume and makeup tests of the real actor.

    I am in awe of your skills. I almost am afraid of you changing the eyes as they already look phenomenal to me.

    I don't know if I'd say that, there have been a lot more impressive things I've seen here than this, but I totally appreciate the sentiment nonetheless.

    Trust, the new eyes will make a huge difference.

    I finished reworking the mannequin body and am getting ready to take some new pics. Be back here in just awhile.
