Thank you, I cant wait to get him. I need a sweet display case and stand for it now.

That looks AMAZING!!!!!!! People will say what they want to about it and "nit-pick" things, but this is the closest thing on the planet, (that I'm aware of) to being the actual RAPHAEL head from Turtles:1

I think you mentioned that Erik charged you $2,000 for this comission...? Now that the original sculpt/mold has been made, I wonder how much he'd charge just to pull another "head" off it?

Thanks man, I appreciate the comments. Erik actually destroyed the mold so this will be the only one in existance like this and unfortunatly wont be taking on any more commissions at this time because of how busy he is with the movies and how much stress making this head was. He lost lots of sleep over making this head it wasnt an easy piece. Thanks again for the nice comments :-)

twopinacoladas 09-13-2010 11:33 AM

That turned out very very nice =)

Andrew NDB 09-13-2010 12:25 PM

I want to poke at it and feel the texture. But seriously, it looks very, very good.

Koi 09-13-2010 12:26 PM

Makes me want to make a turtle head!

That thing is freakin' cool looking.

Bmaga123 09-13-2010 12:32 PM

Thanks for the complements and yeah it should feel really cool since its silicone skine over a hard fiberglass core/underskull.

shuriken 09-13-2010 12:59 PM

I like it a lot. It is very well made and the expression is very Raph. You could even say a litle TOO Raph.

koenne 09-13-2010 01:39 PM

Cowabunga !

Yeah got it up on ebay right now, ran into some financial problems and need to sell off some of my valuable stuff including this unfortunatly but only for the right price I will let this go. :-(

Koi 09-15-2010 03:49 PM

your selling it? :OOOOOOOOO I thought you were going to keep it and and and.... ????

Kendamu 09-15-2010 03:54 PM

The bandana is a little large to be exactly like the first movie, but as I said before it's very much in the style of the first movie while still being a one-of-a-kind piece.

Yeah I planned on keeping and displaying it but times are tough right now so I must try to sell it and I know lots of people would love this amazing piece.

I actually like the thicker bandanna because in the first movie it seemed to be thicker then the others and I didnt want it thin. Kind of like this pic you see how thick it is

Kendamu 09-15-2010 04:32 PM

Oh, you're right! I was comparing to your avatar. That pic's a much better angle.

BubblyShell22 09-16-2010 08:24 AM

Awesome head. It looks a lot like Raph. It's a shame you have to sell it instead of keeping it, but I can understand why.

Samhain 09-16-2010 08:53 PM

Damn, selling it? Do you even have it in hand yet? Oh well, I know times are tough. Good luck with whatever you do.

Newton Gimmick 09-16-2010 08:59 PM

Awesome stuff man.

Candy Kappa 09-17-2010 06:30 PM

sweet head

LioConvoy 09-19-2010 07:02 PM

DUDE! AWESOME! What materials did you use to make it?

kyle-a-bunga 10-04-2010 08:31 AM

My good god that is awesome! Such a shame you've had to put it up on eBay, I hope you get nothing less than the right price for it though.

Discogod 10-04-2010 05:43 PM

That is a fantastic piece of art.

KittenBunny 11-05-2010 07:09 PM

So how long did you end up owning this bad boy for? its so sad it must be sold :(

xChri5x 11-06-2010 04:57 PM

So how many Raphael heads does this make that you had commissioned and sold on eBay because of "financial reasons"?

Spitfire 11-06-2010 05:10 PM

He had to list this one 3 times before it sold. and only for half what he wanted for it.

Sorry that happened man. At least you got to keep it a little longer.

Sword Slicin' Leo 11-07-2010 08:30 PM

OMG you really got 3,000 for it??? Very Nice!!!

Only once, the previous 2 I wasnt happy with at all so I sold them. I took losses on all 3 heads so I am not in it to make a financial gain if that is what your thinking. Last one I wasnt 100% happy with to be honest although it was pretty good but the likeness wasnt quite there. It sold for 1,500
