Premium Format New Sideshow Spider-Man (Comic) PF

What kind of camera and lens are you using? At what settings? That is awesome photography!

Seems like he is using a Filter to darken the whole image. The Base looks like buttery baked bread.

No filter on this. This is manual and raw.

For Sideshow... yes. smaller companies do it, but with the volume produced by Sideshow, edition sizes and such, they'd probably need a whole team. A 5000-6000-7000 edition size by Sideshow is the equivalent of 6-7 combined edition sizes by other companies, can't see one guy tackling all the work.

doesn't have to be one an in-house painting workshop or something. I just find it incredibly strange that when people want to return statues because of paint lines etc. Something that could take someone an hour or so to fix they wont touch up to then sell BUT i don't know of anything that goes behind closed doors at a statue company. Thats why I am asking

Well done, well done.

I still want to eat a piece of that perfectly baked buttery bread base you have there...mmmm

Shipping back and forth probably costs more than producing the statue in the first place. Nevermind employing a painter.

My EX has just reached and returned back to SSC. I jumped on the WL for the EX again. I really want one of these but in better shape.

shipping back and forth?

I think he means posting it to a painter and them posting it back. (You would pay both)

 

[Collectorcol]

No. They ship to you, you find issues so return it. They fix it then ship it to you again.
3x shipping, paid by them, probably more than the statue cost them to produce.

 

[Fastball Special]

Man I need to grab one of these. I have waited long enough.

If I don't like it and return it I get a refund and they have a statue in hand that according to them they wont sell, in that situation I don't see why they wouldn't use an in house painter to touch it up and then put it on the market again. Does that make more sense?

take a few photos in natural light without a flash. To me the knee looks pretty bad but the flash is too much. Take it outside in indirect sunlight and take some closeup photos and a few from 6-12 inches away and repost.

My Ex is already sealed back and to be sent tomorrow for a full refund. According to SS, it has some minor flaws and of course, the usual $50 credit

I don't blame you. I can even see the finger print of the painter in the blue paint. I'm new to this hobby but SS needs to send QC folks to the factory at least once a month for inspections. These paint issues are just pathetic.

Yeah, I wouldn't keep that statue if I were you. Too many noticeable paint flaws in very noticeable places!

Sorry to hear that the statue had some issues. They seem to be all over the place with the amount of credit that they're offering. Regardless, they haven't offered an amount that would actually cover the cost to have it fixed.

 

[Armymedic1980]

They didn't even give Ol' blue eyes a break. That's just terrible! A credit is just unsatisfactorily for that! A credit should be for something hardly noticeable, but that's just so bad.

 

[bransen2099]

To be honest, the paint isn't that well protected, it can easily come off with 70% isopropyl alcohol...

Good eye! That is indeed a fingerprint. Lol!

SSC could actually use that fingerprint to figure out who the painter was. Accountability.
