This one is completed, just trying to keep this list complete for new visitors to follow the line- Here is the armature-  This was the rough sculpt-  This was the first 'finished' version presented for critique(didn't have the plastic bead for the eye yet)- the head created quite a discussion and it was decided that it should be changed-  This was the second finished version- still was generating discussion-  So the head was lopped off-  This was the revised head-   I ended up lopping off this head too- it was determined to be too large for the body- a new head was made exactly like this one only to the proper scale to fit the body right before I molded it- |

These pics don't include the scaled down head you did right before casting then right ?

No, sorry. I just did it then molded it. It was an exact copy of the too large head- which had gone through a lot of discussion- sort of didn't want to go through all of that again for the newer littler head as it was basically just a copy of the one that was approved-

The Para is 25.00-
I originally had a much more complicated paint job on this but decided I was crazy to think I would have the time to paint such a involved paint scheme for one of these figures for this price-
so I simplified it quite a bit-
would be appropriate for Christmas decorating color schemes-lol

3.00 less the Rex ? heh ....is that the Paypal or check/ M.O. price ? I really like the paint job...maybe the eyes on this one and the others should be painted a bit like how Safari does theirs..the gold with a drop of gloss black really helps a piece out I think...I've been going back and fixing my older Safari pieces with it. Wouldn't mind a closer pic with a profile of the head if you could...  |

my camera sucks- it would just turn out blurry-
the price reflects the fact that it is a lot less work to finish up than the Rex-

I plan on doing a bit of minor detail work on most of them so far...this looks to have cast well.
Were you able to anything about the pinholes on the Dilo ? That one side in Boki's post looked pretty full of them..did they all turn out like that ?
I might have to pay via Paypal or MO... :/ hope it's not to big of a problem...my credit union sucks.
