Howard's Indy -- primered pics

[PHArchivist]

Just got an early Christmas gift!

I know that the combo of my photo skills and the white resin makes it hard to see detail, but let me tell you - this thing looks just like him!

I'll post more pics when it is primered.

I couldn't resist throwing on my craptacular Disney hat, and my Wested...!

Yeah it's hard to see the detail with the white resin, but if it's from Howard we know it's dead-on! :thumbsup

Now quit dissin the bust and get that nasty fedora off of him! :lol

"Dissin'" by disrespecting it with such a cheapo hat, right...?

I cannot wait to get the bust painted! I'm psyched about it!

According to AB's website, price is $250 plus $10 for shipping for pure beaver felt.

But with the movie coming out, who knows how long the wait is.

I'd go with with a fed deluxe, $145 and pure rabbit felt. It's dimensionally correct and just needs to be pinched as it's an open crown. http://www.hatsdirect.com/cgi/products.cgi?view=59&returncat=Fedora+Hats&returnpage=0

I've had mine going on 4 years and it looks as good as the day it arrived. Plus, hatsdirect had it to me, in new york from australia, in a week.

I've just received (in 4 days from Australia to Italy!), my "standard" federation and it's wonderful!

Oh, and that sculpt it's AWESOME!

Count on it! his project will be rapidly bumped o the top of my "To do" list! Would have been primered today if I had the right color primer on hand...

Thanks for an awesome piece, Howard (a bit of a "holy grail" item for me), and for a perfect transaction!

You know, I think I'm one of the few people that think an unpainted (totally white) bust looks fantastic but a painted version looks creepy...

:lol

Hey man. Nice bust.

 

[PHArchivist]

If they're painted dead real, then they can be very creepy! So cool!

 

[bleyd]

I'm kinda diggin the plain white version too. Kinda like a marble statue to me. The painted ones look cool but still creepy to me.
