Bmaga123 · 07-18-2007, 07:12 PM

Here are the final pics of Raphael other then the artist needs to complete the knot in back with the 2 strands coming down. I am so amazed with this head its better then I would have ever dreamed of. Opinions please.

Impressive, you could probably tell someone it was a movie prop and they'd believe you.

*Scandia* · 07-18-2007, 07:43 PM

Wow. Simply wow.

It is interesting that Raphael has green eyes. He is quite the envious Turtle.

They are actually brown, I dont no if your computer doesnt show his eyes right but they are actually a medium/dark brown.

Awesome heads. I looks almost identical to Raph's movie one head from the side. From the front it looks like it could ge a whole new turtle but it most resembles Raphael.

Is it hallowed out inside?

Cool. The eyes are amazing.

craploads better than the other one. VERY nice. you have gotten yer $$'s worth with this one. let the artist know a raph fan approves of his work

haha

Bmaga123 · 07-19-2007, 06:52 PM

To answer the question is it hallowed inside is No, the head is for display only and is made of silcone with a poly foam filling. Thanks for the great compliments I am amazed with this head and I realize it doesnt capture the likeness of Raph in the movie perfectly but it looks amazing and you can still tell its Raphael.

Thanks, trust me I wont sell this one. I sold the other because I was so dissapointed with it and it didnt even come close to meeting my expectations. The last artist was a joke and it even took him over a year to deliver. The new guy actually does FX in movies and has a shop in Spain and its been 3 months and its already coming.

Bmaga123 · 07-21-2007, 06:25 PM

The completed head will be at my place this week. I cant wait to get it

Bmaga123 · 08-13-2007, 07:29 PM

Here an updated pic of the knot on the back of the head. the final piece is shipping this week.

*Buslady* · 08-13-2007, 08:10 PM
