Trevor (the tank) Vs All Other Indy Sculptors:

 

[Sandindy]

Oh boy, this thing is going to sell like hotcakes. I better get my f5 button ready

 

[YoNoSe]

I honestly hope that this is Trevor's favorite license, because it would be a shame if he's actually like, a big Laverne and Shirley fan but he has to go and create the best Indiana Jones collectible ever to pay the rent. All the while dreaming of PFF Squiggy...

 

[Trevolver]

I'm floored....this was the big unveil for me as well. When a piece leaves my studio, it just looks green and grey and sometimes I don't even get to see it all together if I have to get a likeness sent out to get into approvals. but MAN is it a treat to see the final piece. what an absolutely amazing accomplishment. I don't even feel as though I did anything on it...which is awesome! I love having an opportunity to enjoy these pieces like any other fan.

man, I'm so giddy! I can't wait to own one of these!

This sculpt was honestly very very hard. I extend my deepest thanks to Sideshow for giving me time to explore it and experiment with it. Unfortunately, Harrison isn't someone that can be knocked out in a few days. At least not at first. He fights ya'! But I was so thrilled when I was told to try and give him that smirk... that essential humanity that Indy possesses. As though even he can't believe he made it through a situation.

it was a blast, and I can't wait to try him again! LOVE the pose that was decided upon, and the clothing is amazing....the base is SPOT on...

Thanks for all the kind words you guys. I'm glad you are enjoying it so far!

Enjoy all the hearty praise Trev, you've earned it with this one.



What part of Indy kept fighting you the most? The smirk? The eyes?

Again best Harrison ever.

I love the sculpt. The smirk is perfect. I can only imagine how long you worked on this, Trev. Beautiful job!

I'll be expecting mine with a free sig, then...
Seriously, though, it's all you , man. Enjoy it. This an excitable lot, but it's rarely as well deserved as it is tonight. Cheers

 

[Shai]

From statueforum.....

If it turns out this well, it'll easily trump all other PF's before it.

THAT PICTURE GIVES YOU AND IDEA OF THE GREATNESS OF THIS SCULPT.CONCERNING MY OTHER COMMENT, OF COURSE I WILL ALWAYS LIKE A CHARACTER LIKE HULK MORE THAN INDY, BUT THIS PF PROOVES WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THAT SIDESHOW (AND TREVOR) SET A NEW STANDARD FOR THE GREATEST REPRESENTATION OF A POP CULTURE CHARACTER.

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

That closeup image is just insane. It's hard to believe that's not an actual picture of Harrison Ford. Everyone who worked on this from the sculpt to the paint to the tailoring brought their A game. Kudos all around.

As I recall...everything. LOL! the head shape, the volume of the hair, the neck and how it meets with the head...all the things that you wouldn't expect to make too much of a difference, really have a baring on how good the portrait looks with Harrison Ford.

The bent nose is always more extreme than you first think. his eyes are indeed a difficult area. they're almost too simple, if that makes sense. It can look bad sculpted. Giving him a smirk was brutal, but that's exactly how I would have preferred to sculpt him, so that was exciting!

I'm sure if I were to sculpt him again...it would be just about as difficult...the only difference is I would be expecting it to be hard. ha! I'd like to pursue some different expressions.

hopefully a temple of doom pf

 

[galactiboy]

Damn, seriously, just damn! You could tell it was kickass from the smaller image, but that cover shot is 100% spot on. I was surprised Trev, when you said it was your best... but I am now a believer. It is amazing and I think I may have to give into the pressure and pre-order this one as well.

It is the will of Kali that I own this piece.

And as was said earlier, this piece easily has blown the over-priced Cinemaquette out of the water

 

[theropod]

OK, OK, OK...
I have to admit that I'm thinking of buying two Indy PFs.

One, because it's so fricken awesome times infinity.

Two, so I can whip out the hacksaw, cut off Indy's head, and mount it on my PF Han Solo.

I dont know whats more chilling: The fact that I agree with Shai or how close Trevor got Fords likeness on this piece....scary.

This will be my first 1/4 scale PF ever.

Trevor buddy...I always have to dust off my thesaurus when I post about you.
I can only use amazing, jaw dropping, and uncanny so many times.
I must say who ever did the jacket, hat and stand deserve equal praise.

[Kuzeh]

That sculpt is just incredible...
