1:6 Lennon by Darren Carnall

I'm so happy this is coming closer... I'm sure Darren will blow us away.

64 Sullivan/HDN Lennon is the way to go. Good news!

We need all four lads!

 

[lcummins]

I'm interested, but will I be able to see the final product before I commit? (No offense to Darren of course... I'm just not sure yet)

How's the search for suits and a guitar going?

 

[pixletwin]

Guitar is being made by a local fellow. He can chime in if he wants too.

As for suits I have had a few leads, but nothing worth sharing.... yet!

 

[Batty]

Darren, how are you with reference material?

 

[thamesvalidude]

definitely interested! And I notice I'm on the list............hooray!

 

[thamesvalidude]

I would PM Darren.

Bloody hell pixletwin, you were hot off the mark on the Billie Piper screen shot!!!!!

 

[pixletwin]

Welcome aboard.

he he yeah. It was actually made by a guy on doctorwhoforum

 

[Darren Carnall]

Darren, how are you with reference material?

I've got quite a few pics... but ANY more are always welcome. Especially any direct front or side shots, or shots showing the expression/hairstyle etc that is wanted. they can be emailed to... wait, i'll pm it to you, lol

Because this idea has been bandied around for so long now... I'm starting to feel the anticipation from everyone. ...no pressure then

 

[lcummins]

Hey Pix, I talked to Darren, so put me down as interested for now! Thanks! :chew

 

[pixletwin]

Gotcha on there Lonnie.

I'm kinda bummed that this is the era that was decided. I would like to see the sculpt first, but I might be out now. I was hoping for solo career John, mostly b/c having him from this era will look very odd not having the other 3 lads. And if the sculpt is a definitive "mod" look, aging him for an Imagine John might not work. Why 1964? Most Lennon fans would agree that he himself felt that his best work, his truest work, was after he left the Beatles.

 

[pixletwin]

Sorry to hear you are out.

Updated...

Really? Thats fine if he felt like that, but I don't think most of his fans would agree. Heck, I don't think most of his fans even own a Lennon solo record.

Edit: I really wish this was a complete outfitted project.

You can comb the old thread for the reasons why we went with the 64 Lennon. But I know a lot of us ARE getting the other 3 Beatles. Plans are also that we are not stopping with this incarnation of Lennon either. If all goes well we will hit other eras of his life as well. Thi is (hopefully) just the begining.

Where is the fun in that?
