Throne Of Blood I need to watch since I've only seen parts of it. I'm sure its a great movie. The Last Samurai is an amazing movie. Even though I don't like the whole scientology thing, I like Tom Cruise and his movies. Did you know that a samurai version of Unforgiven was made with Ken Watanabe from The Last Samurai recently? Well it was going to be a samurai version but it looks like its a western.

I did not know that. I will need to check it out

Glad I bought mine at retail Here are a few comparison pics of the Blondie figures for you guys to check out. The paint apps have improved quite a lot, since the original release. You can't go wrong with either one though

Here is the new sculpt:

Here is the old sculpt:

As you mentioned, both look great but the new one has one realism for sure, great images DA! :

Re: Classic Actors & Tough Guys - Bogart, Cagney, Wayne, Eastwood, Dean & Others...

Yep, that still is my favorite sculpt! You can't beat it for realism other than having the real thing....and it's gotten even better with the newer version...congrats!

Way to go, godfatherglen! Welcome...! You'll find more pictures of Bogie on the first page of this thread....the first figure I did was of him in Treasure Of Sierra Madre which I still think is a great picture. Here he is:

Nice work Geronimo. Only thing that I'm not digging is the hat. It doesn't sit low enough on the sculpt and looks a little big. The quality looks really great on the hat, but you need to go lower. Just my opinion though and takes nothing away from the work you put into ol blue eyes Overall you have a terrific custom right there

 

[Geronimo]

Re: Classic Actors & Tough Guys - Bogart, Cagney, Wayne, Eastwood, Dean & Others...

I agree completely DA! Thanks for the insight. I may have to widen the hat at bit. I'm also planning on repainting Frank to get a little more detail and color into his face. His eyes aren't exactly like I want them to be.

Feel free to comment freely on anything that I post because it helps me get the figures right...thanks!

I feel the same way. Anytime I post a bash, I want opinions too. I always listen and want my figures to look the best they can

Let's bring the pics over here, so we can critique

So after looking at this for a bit, there are a few issues with the sculpt. It looks too wide and not long enough in the face. Still a great likeness, but not quite there yet. I think the nose and mouth need to fill out the sculpt more vertically. What do you guys think?
