Re: My Blade Runner collection (NEW buddha head replicas!)
I have a long thread about the project over at Propsummit if you want to read about it...
The replicas are casted off the bronze heads, yes...and painted. The bronze heads are somewhere between 50-100 years old and are probably Chinese souvenirs or replicas of antiques... I've contacted several Asian arts experts who all confirm that they represent no true value and are not depicting certain deities, nor are they from a certain period or region. "A little bit of this and a little bit of that" as one put it. Basically the originals are junk.
