Not that I can afford to go for this, but if I were, I think I would want the grey suit/red sweater version, irrespective of BP covering this look.

Re: [S.Pettersenart] The Inspector WIP

I really think that the red sweater and gray jacket has to be the look.

Remember BP did the brown already too.

Can't wait for this.

Yeah, I didn't realize they did the brown suit too till recently.
If I go ahead with this then I suppose it'd make the most sense to do the gray jacket/red sweater suit. Anyone interested?

Here's a peek at some more work in progress. I'll have better pics when done:

Re: [S.Pettersenart] The Inspector WIP

YES put me on the list please. Would also be cool to have a movie accurate badge! Then follow it up with a Scorpio, that pseudo-Joker villain with a sniper rifle.

Great job so far , I'll be extremely tempted by this. I'm probably alone but I've always preferred the Dirty Harry movies to Clint's Western stuff.
The ultimate bad *** indeed.

Both good! But I think they are better too!

Growing up in the SF bay area, Dirty Harry has always had a special place with me. I love how uniquely San Francisco everything is.

Thanks guys for the comments!

I need your guys help.
I'm looking for reference for his S&W Model 29 but I'm finding differences in the grips. Does anyone know which is most screen accurate?

Here is a film used one where the grips are smooth wood but I'm not sure if that's just for display since there is the metal badge on the grip?:

Then there is this one, where there is a notch on the upper grip:

And this one. Having a more rounded upper grip shape:

Anyone know what's what?

Thanks- S.

Looking at this link, then I would say it's the one with the badge, but minus the badge: https://www.nramuseum.org/the-museu...law/dirty-harry's-smith-wesson-44-magnum.aspx

The badge was added when it was presented to John Milius.

...But then again, they used several during filming with different barrel lengths, so different grips might be right for different scenes.

I want this so bad, but I have no idea how to fit it in my budget

Thanks guys-

Right!
So next question is:
Which barrel length is preferred?

8.375"

6.5"

Best-S.

Re: [S.Pettersenart] The Inspector WIP

I prefer the 6.5" barrel.
I most of the shots on imfdb have Harry with the that length.
The shot of Harry in the Football stadium looks like the 8" barrel.

Re: [S.Pettersenart] The Inspector WIP

This is great, Scott, you've returned to Clint. Definitely in and looking forward to final pics. Grey suit with red sweater is my choice as well.

Re: [S.Pettersenart] The Inspector WIP

The 6.5" barrel is preferred by me as well.
