Re: Nosferatu 2024

Bummer you didn't like it more. I loved it. I think the artistry behind it is absolutely top tier, especially the visuals, music, and sound. I watched it in a theater. However, while I always recommend seeing an important movie in the theater over watching it at home, I believe this to be especially...

Re: Rest in piece Todd Carolan

I just finished this peace by him June. It was the first and only kit I have of his. I was looking forward to more. I love how expressive this sculpt is. It's a favorite.

Re: Wooden Display Base Questions

Not sure what you mean by a radius jig. If I were going to rout a piece of wood for a base and put a radius on the edges, I would use a bit with a guide bearing and let the piece guide the router. If you have a router table, then even better. Drop in a starting pin, and just rotate you base against...

Re: Wooden Display Base Questions

I paint large scale busts and use threaded rod to fix them to my wooden bases, I think the rod I use is about 6mm but you can buy all different sizes at a hardware store. I drill a hole in the bottom of the bust then a hole in the wooden base, cut a section of rod that fits and epoxy ( I use araldi...

Re: Wooden Display Base Questions

The advice given in this thread still applies even in your personal use case. You just have to scale up For that 1/4 scale bust, just make a really big pin. Probably out of something like allthread. You can see in this WIP page for one of my builds how I used bolts in wooden base to hold a resin bu...

Re: Wooden Display Base Questions

Thanks for the reply guys, but I'm referring to hand -made Wooden Display Bases, not the base supplied with the model. For example, I'm building an American Werewolf in London Bust by MVT. The Figure and the base are both painted and pinned together. I am going to attach the model (and its base) to ...

Wooden Display Base Questions

I'm a total novice at woodworking. But I'm learning. I asked a question about types of wood to use a while back, and that set me in motion toward woodworking classes. Which have been great fun, and I'm learning a ton. But I've got a long way to go, and those classes only indirectly apply to making d...

I've seen Phantom of the Paradise dozens of times over the past 30 years since I first stumbled upon it. And while I was prepping reference images I just noticed... https://i.postimg.cc/zybwwjbm/PotP-11.jpg The logo for Death Records is branded onto his face. Am I alone in missing this tiny detail? ...

Re: Phantom of the Paradise ID

It's great, it finishes off the piece nicely, but It is no longer available.

I will have to cook up something original. If I can find good reference photos I might even try to replicate it. Or maybe something entirely new...

Re: Phantom of the Paradise ID

The circular base that Mike cooked up really finishes it off perfectly. Unfortunately, the keyboard base is no longer available. Or are you referring to something else? Fortunately, for me, I contacted Charlie and he had one kit left and now the molds are dead. I did not ask him if there are any pl...

Re: Phantom of the Paradise ID

Oddly enough, I contacted Charlie about this kit a few years ago, right before I went to my first Wonderfest. Which is why I did not get the kit at the time. He was willing to cast one for me. But the circular keyboard base is no longer available. I did not recognize it from this angle, and the imag...

Phantom of the Paradise ID

I saw this posted on FB. I am not the original poster. But I too am curious about this bust. I've been looking for a PotP kit for some time. Any info would be appreciated. Who produced it, when it was produced, and if it is still available (doubtful). And even better, if anyone is willing to part wi...
