If it's not obvious this is intended to be an accessory for the NECA turtles. They've mentioned some of the accessories but no full pizza (only a slice) and I doubt immensely they got the licensing for Domino's.

It looks great. My only small caveat might be the brown mushroom looking toppings... you might want to consider gong with a different look - idk, it looks a little ...er... gross.

Top notch work on the box and crust details... 10/10!

I fully designed the box from scratch based off the movie. I had to take a couple creative liberties due to them not showing every area of the box clearly. Pizza was also sculpted and painted by me (nice gloss for the greasy cheese). Despite having printed boxes and a few casts to test my mold, I wont be going full production until I have Donny in hand. At that point I can start to make more casts and painting. I think the boxes will come assembled as well.

I'm compiling an interest list for when I am ready to start producing. Really the only hold up is scale. I would like to be certain the scale is 100% accurate with a production piece. Although my calculations are correct for the pizza, I want everyone to be happy with the final size and don't want to have to go back and redo orders should it be too large or too small. (Pizza is currently 4" and Box is 4.75")

These are going to be in the neighborhood of $30 shipped (priority - tracked/insured) domestic, not certain about international yet. Payment wouldn't be due until I actually start producing. Production would be in batches of 10-15. Once I get that many done, I'll ship and start on the next batch. I haven't put a cap on it quite yet but there will be one I'm sure.

I'm also interested in doing other accessories so let me know what you guys would like to see. I can start my research and do some concept stuff.

For now just reply with "Interested" and a quantity and I will start the list here.

Great detail on that man.... I may be interested just depending on when I get Donnie in hand Hopefully October like Randy said.

[d_osborn]

Whoa! Great job! I'm definitely interested.

As for other ideas-- the NY Post paper that Raph is reading would be cool.

...AND A BOTTLE OF TURTLE WAX!!!!!

I don't know about you but the one from the movie doesn't look too appetizing to me either ;)

List updated guys, thanks

[go_ninja84]

You can put me down for an order as well. PM me when your ready for payment


Don't change it I think it looks spot on especially the legal stuff on bottom

The pizza looked like that in the movie anyway

[Zak The Neutrino]

I'm in for one.

[Bmaga123]

Put me down for 1 please, I am super interested :-)

I would love to see Donnie's Skateboard as well if possible!

[drewizzle88]

Interested as well, I'll be in for one.

As far as more extras I'll do some more thinking on that. That pizza looks fantastic btw.

[d_osborn]

Just a thought-- maybe offer up an ever dirtier version of the pizza box, something similar to the penicillin scene?

Any possibility of selling just the box?

List updated guys, thanks

Hey, it looks amazing - the brown spots just look nasty. :lol:
You're attention to detail is incredible, down to the oil stain on the box.

Do you make other toys?

[TheMasterTurtle]

List updated guys


I would love to see Donnie's Skateboard as well if possible!

I would like to try that one if there aren't already 1/4 scale ones out there. I havent looked so I have no idea. Not that anyone would legitimately have Donny roll around but I wouldnt make the wheels moveable.



As for other ideas-- the NY Post paper that Raph is reading would be cool.

...AND A BOTTLE OF TURTLE WAX!!!!!

I'll have a look into the paper. Turtle wax has been on my list from the start. Again never showing the complete label I may have to take some creative liberties again. I know the canister isn't accurate either and I'll be working on making a more accurate one.

You can put me down for an order as well. PM me when your ready for payment

Thanks man. Other than referencing the movie I had to do some research on what are on most Dominos boxes. That actually helped me get the "Our drivers carry less then $20.00" that is show on the side. In the movie you can see a frame that says "...carry less..." and I couldn't figure it out until I did that research. It was enjoyable to do.

Just a thought-- maybe offer up an ever dirtier version of the pizza box, something similar to the penicillin scene?

Any possibility of selling just the box?

Yes to both. I was bouncing ideas off another dromer when I first told him I wanted to make this and he suggested the Penicillin pizza. Id sculpt a new pizza with half the slices gone and would really like to flock some areas on top so it actually looked like mold rather than painting. As far as the box I did make a dirty version but because that box is pretty beat up Id probably let whoever bought it also rough it up.

Selling the boxes alone can definitely happen.

Hey, it looks amazing - the brown spots just look nasty. :lol:
You're attention to detail is incredible, down to the oil stain on the box.

Do you make other toys?

I appreciate it. I tried to replicate all the dark spots from the actual movie scene. When you look at the scene I showed above and the overhead shot of the slice when it lands on a plate they look like they have completely different toppings. I wanted to go towards the one from the scene above though since it was a full pizza.

As far as other toys I've always customized and worked on original sculpts but they've only been for myself. My last turtle related toys were original bebop and rocksteady headsculpts to properly represent the OT and to go with the playmates classics. I also sculpted a lot on their bodies.

I'm currently working on a custom figure project for the little known show in my signature and have started to research doing some original TMNT toys of characters that never got made but should have. Here's a shot of a character from the show below and the articulated model.

Done!

I do traditional sculpting but in this instance and the potential turtle project I would be 3D printing the master, prepare it, and make molds/casts

[TheMasterTurtle]

List updated guys. Also added interest list for other items Id like to do. Ive inquired with a few companies about producing the trenchcoat and hat. I wouldnt be making those personally, only being the contact, having orders shipped to me and then Id ship them out. Nothing official yet - Ive been roughly quoted $150 for that.

I have Donny ordered from 2 places so whichever gets here first Ill start working on this stuff much more.

[tmntgeoff]

Since the Donnie is shipping will you be selling the pizza boxes soon?

[TheMasterTurtle]

Just wanting my Donny in hand to make sure all proportions are appropriate and then I'll be starting the process of casting, painting, etc

BUT there will be delay because of the holidays - back when these were going to be released in September, then October - I didnt have obligations.

[Raph]

Cool! Take your time of course! I still just want the pizzabox since I want to fill it with the pizza slices that come with the figure :)

[thefont9]

Interested in pizza box, and also raph hat/trenchcoat if you can make that happen for sure.

Yup pretty much. When I see the PayPal notification I'm making the boxe(s) at that point.

Awesome thanks buddy :-)

[TheMasterTurtle]

A mini batch going out tomorrow

After this second full batch (about 16) I'm finishing up I'm going to be putting this one on the shelf so I can work on another few projects that require my attention. I've started looking into Pork Rinds, Turtle Wax and Raphs Trenchcoat.

[Since 1984]

Just got my box and pizza in the mail today and I'm super impressed with it! The details in the box are just awesome. Do you have any tips on painting the pizza? What kind of paint and which colors to use to get that perfect crust color you got?

[TheMasterTurtle]

First things first, the pizza should be primed before painting. So when I paint rarely use a color out of the bottle. There's likely 10 paints on that pizza. I started with making a deep maroon for the sauce, dry brushed with a slightly lighter red. Same went for the crust. Start with a dark brown and gradually dry brush tans and other lighter brownish tones until it's a color you like. Make your cheese off white, not yellow.

I really like to finish coat my toy customs with Testors dull coat. To me it gives a real factory toy finish. In this instance insealed it with dull coat and then used a high gloss to paint the cheese to emulate grease under the right lighting.

What do you use for a primer? Can an aerosol spray can work like household primers?

Yeah I've used Krylon and Dupli-color personally. I like airbrushing or aerosol for my primer so it's a thin even layer.

Excellent quality! The box is perfect for these figures, please sign me up for all of these props except the sketch of leo( i already have one) thanks a million :tgrin:

[TheMasterTurtle]

thanks for the comments guys, glad youre enjoying them!

I'm assembling batch two and all who have ordered should see tracking numbers within 2 days.

I only have about 5 left and then the boxes will be done for now (members who I have spoken with already, your boxes are counted). I have a big project that I have to jump on

[tmntgeoff]

I didnt know these were shipping already. Is it too late for me to buy mine? Id also love to get a trench coat and hat when they are ready

[TheMasterTurtle]

Nope not too late but like I said not many left before I take a break from them. Once I get some solid quotes on the coat/ hat I'll let everyone know. Inwont be making those myself, only finding a known tailor and commissioning them.

On those, likely the way it'll work is 50% down, 50% plus shipping upon completion

[TheMasterTurtle]

Hey guys - perhaps it was my last post but the boxes are now all officially spoken for. I will likely revisit them in the future but I've got some other projects going on that need my attention.

They were a lot of manual labor but I love the end result and I'm glad you all have as well. Check back for other accessories and like I said, I'll likely revisit some pizza boxes when time allows me to.

THANK YOU!

If you can produce a trenchcoat and hat for these?!?! DONE!

[TheMasterTurtle]

What do you guys think? Start of the next two accessories. Still need to finalize the logos/ artwork. I'm outsourcing the decals to someone who makes some real quality ones but doing the rest myself. Not sure on cost yet but likely in the $20 range before shipping for each. I'll know more once i get the pricing per decal.

1/4 Pork Rinds (includes bag, Filled with "block" of resin rinds plus single resin rind to hold) the bag will have the logo attached as a decal.

Looks freaking awesome! Can't wait to see the finished product.

[TheMasterTurtle]

Looks freaking awesome! Can't wait to see the finished product.

Thanks. Yo justify actually making these for more than just myself I need to see some more interest. I need to put an order in for the decals at once. If I proceed without commitment, unlike the pizza boxes, I'm not likely to revisit because of outsourcing the decals so they're going to be super limited.

[Coro]

Got my boxes, late to posting ,but thanks! They are awesome. I will probably skip on the rinds, possibly interested in the wax, but DEFINITELY interested in coat and hat. Possibly times 4.

[Bmaga123]

Both look awesome please put me down for wax and rinds. Thank you

[go_ninja84]

Me too I'll take both

[TheMasterTurtle]

Thanks guys. Although I wanted them, i wasn't sure about others. I knew there wasn't a rush so I'll be sitting just a little longer to order the decals I need for these two items to see what interest builds. I'm really tied up in another project too but I'll be tackling these in time. I need to get some measurements to a tailor as well to get a quote.

[TheMasterTurtle]

Although my focus has been on a large project (3D printed figure) i have still been working to make the Raph Trench coat happen. The hat will likely be sculpted by me but because each turtle has a unique head shape I'll probably have to wait Til I have Raph in hand to finalize that. I may start and use Donny for proportions though.

I've spoken with a few people about tailoring the trench coat and finally found someone who I think will be able to deliver and I THINK will offer a fair price (still negotiating that pending final prototype). To keep you all in the loop.. here is the fabric color likely to be used and the template I provided which was compiled from screenshots of the movie I took as well as watching the scenes over and over again. The coat will not have a lining and will likely have clasps to close it rather than functional buttons. Also, the pockets will be for show only and not functional. Any "worn look" I'll let anyone who orders do themselves.

So I'm having a prototype made with a similar fabric so we can make any adjustments that'll be needed and so we can see the overall look. Once we know that we are all happy with it, an order will need to be made for fabric. At that point I'll need half down, second half plus shipping once it's complete. I'll have all the jackets shipped to me and then I'll ship them out to everyone individually. The half down will be nonnegotiable and I can't front the money in order for anyone or wait. It is and has to be first come first served and then a wait list will happen should anyone back out.

Similar to the pizza boxes I appreciate everyone's patience

[Since 1984]

Depending on the price, I'd be in on the trench coat. For sure in on the turtle wax.

If this is regarding combined shipping, yes. If not I'll please elaborate :)

I'm really occupied with a different project at the moment so I'm hoping to pick up the tmnt accessories again soon including more pizza boxes.

shipping yes and possbily bundle deals when XyZ i bought with this or that - because shipping costs/ time and exchange rate sucks

the AUD atm is ether slightly better or slightly below the CAD

Yup I would definitely not expect anyone to HAVE to pay multiple times if I can manage it. I'll just be releasing each accessory so far between it might be a long wait. Not impossible though

[The Fifth Turtle]

Just wanted to let you know in case you haven't seen Neca will be making pork rinds.

Thanks I saw! Everyone should be happy with that. I haven't touched things knowing toy fair was coming up. I'll likely still make myself one, maybe 2 or 3 more because I'm all about accuracy. That bag is non licensed and generic with the same colors

[Meow]

How do you feel about shipping overseas? Any interested non-US people so far?

[TheMasterTurtle]

How do you feel about shipping overseas? Any interested non-US people so far?

Yup I've shipped 2 overseas. Doesn't bother me at all as long as you're fine with the additional costs.


Just a quick update, although I haven't moved forward with anything since the last pics, I may halt until that NECA accessory pack is confirmed. I'm all about making items but I also don't want to step on toes and with them being a big guy, they can produce stuff at a better cost.

This means I've told my seamstress to wait ok the coat/ hat, I won't be working on anything else until we know what's coming out. I'll tackle more once we know and if that means making some more screen accurate stuff too I'm all on board for that. I already saw the pork rinds will be nonlicensed

Bump for Turtle Wax

[drag0nfeathers]

I know I am very late to the party but I am interested in pizza boxes (if and when you start making them again) a coat and turtle wax.:twink:

I know I am very late to the party but I am interested in pizza boxes (if and when you start making them again) a coat and turtle wax.:twink:

I still have some Turtle Wax available, I don't think I have any boxes but I can check, as of now I won't be doing any other accessories, coat included.

If interested now, PM me and we can go from there!

[drag0nfeathers]

PM sent! :twink:
