Re: Any Sculptors willing to help me out?

Thanks, these are very useful. By any chance could you find the screencaps for the other toy soldiers seen in the movie?

Re: Any Sculptors willing to help me out?

Yeah, I have all of them, as I'm working on a Beckett office/desk display.
If you PM me an email addy, I'll ship 'em out to ya.

Great screen-caps!! Looks a really crude sculpt. I'm hoping to have a go at replicating it shortly - what does everyone rekon on the scale? It appears shorter than 54mm, although taller than 30mm...or is it my eyes :confused?

Re: Any Sculptors willing to help me out?

If it's on the same scale as the other toy soldiers, it's 58mm.

Well, I FINALLY found the links to the POTC movie hi res screen caps.....I had posted it on the RPF previously, here, but was too lazy to dig through the search results until this evening!

Looks like the zip files are no longer available, but the online caps are, so if you prefer to grab them for yourself, Here's where a very hard working CJS/POTC fan put his hi res grabs for the rest of us to enjoy!
Thanks again, adenry!!

It was indeed a crude and quick custom sculpt. Crude because thats how it would have been if carved by hand back in the day. The goal was to keep it as far away as a mass produced plastic toy we are all familiar with.

That close up in the cannon shows the figurine was repainted for better detail than seen on the desk. I dont seem to recall it originally having the eyes painted so large or as much gold detail on the front.

I had a go at it, now working on the other figures...If anyone wants further info on it, just PM me.

Has there been any update on this topic? Did anyone ever start an online sale for these?

No full-body laser scans of Tom Hollander for detailed 3D printing...? I'm disappointed!
