[Captain Faramir]

Yeah... the other heads I was doing took a little longer than planned (with the annoying family distractions) but there are only the 3 Faramirs on my desk now.... so nothing else in the way

i think somebody's excited.


i am too, i can't wait to see what he looks like after you've painted him.

 

[Darren Carnall]

Hi darren could not email you because my emails not working but the luke repaint would be great.
Just let me know when to send it and pay you.
Oh the legolas is already out of my price range
But still i hope u get lots more cause it all gos to a good cause.
Thanks and please let me know of any arnie updates

Pete hey there!!

The Luke is fine to send anytime. You still got my address? I'll schedule it in for you..... ok I just checked, I'm due to paint another one the week ending 12th July. I'll add yours in there if you like! Feel free to pm me here if your emails aren't working.

As for the Terminators, I just spoke to my casting guy yesterday to get an update... apparantly he's had to spend the last 2 weeks in and out of hospital with a family member who's ill, so he's lost a few weeks. I can't argue about that. He reckons my batch is two thirds finished, and he should have them done within the week.

As soon as I get them I'll be scheduling all Terminator painted orders in amongst my other jobs

You know I can't wait to see this one!

really? I didn't know that

[Darren Carnall]

I'll certainly do that Ian, don't worry

last few hours on Leggy now... all very exciting/upsetting/scary/worrying for me here!

 

[abake]

Good luck Darren!

 

[Mudshark]

Last I looked, Leggy was still holding at 99 quid. So, who was the lucky winner... was it anyone from the Freaks board, by any chance?

 

[Les Walker]

Yeah, I watched this one with great interest! Congrats on the sale Darren. He was one of your best ever. Hope it went to one of us here.

 

[Darren Carnall]

There were bids from people here, but in the end he went to a guy in Spain who had spoken to me through my blog... he'd been following my work and he seems really happy to have one of my figures, at least I know Legolas is going to a new home

and for next week...........? (and this is a big one for me)










*drum roll*














*more drum roll*

Anakin was my first 12" custom ever, so this one better had go to a good home! lol

 

[galactiboy]

Sweet, glad Legolas is going to a collector that will really cherish him! I have a feeling Anakin will do good as well

 

[p!tu]

how much did it go for?

 

[Darren Carnall]

...oh, and thanks galactiboy!

 

[chapuchi]

Congrats on the sale Darren. Can't wait to see how much your Aragorn goes for

 

[abake]

99 quid = 200 bucks?!
Wow, the dollar sure is going down...

Anyway, congrats Darren!
I'm sure Leggy will be well cared for.

 

[Dark_Spidey]

Here's what you get when you combine Darren's extraordinary painting skills and a great Snake headsculpt:

Thanks again Darren!:chew

 

[Darren Carnall]

Glad you like it even better in hand
