Re: WGP's RAIDERS Jones- at casters now!

Hey WST!
You and Dorgmal have been great about the status of the traditional Indy. What is the status of the smiling Indy? Thanks!

Dorgmal has been sending me some smiling Indy's which look great, I've also sent of the Indy hat to be molded by the new moldmakers , once we receive the hats then the Indy heads can start to be sent off....

Since there was such a reaction to the fan anime Star Wars clip recently I thought I would draw attention to a similar effort by an artist on deviantart:

Doesn't look like anime at all

Re: WGP's RAIDERS Jones- at casters now!

No, what I meant is the star wars fan film was anime and this is a fan film as well. I didn't mean to imply this had an anime style. It look more like Bruce Timm.

I love that art. Reminds me of "Dragon's Lair" and "Space Ace".

Is there a film ? Where can we see it ? i've seen some of these pics before and tried the link, but so far as I know they are only concept stills.
would love it if there were a "Saturday morning " cartoon like this

I hope the new caster worked out the issues with the hat.

I paid right from the start for the traditional indy and have a full headless Indy figure
sitting here in front of me begging to be finished.

Yeah, I don't mean to sound critical, but this project sure is taking a while to develop, considering that the 3-D rendering for the head was done a long while back (first post of this thread was in November of last year). Seems like one setback after another, which is too bad. I'm also really anxious to get one of these heads onto my DX Indy figure. I think WGP et al. could be making money hand over fist if they could just get the logistics worked out of getting sculpts into collectors' hands.

It does have that Bluth style. I dig it.

we should be in safe hands, a friends of mine just used the same company for one of his projects and they came out perfect

The main issue we have to deal with recently is the brim on the hat as its only a couple of mm thick.

In the past people have just cast the brim thicker to stop the problem for example Lonnie's Blondie and Sunohc John Marsden. But instead we have been experimenting with different casters and materials so that we do not have to sacrifice accuracy.
Its been a long wait but the finished product will be worth it

There has been a lot of work going on behind the scenes at WGP so hopefully the long waits will be a thing of the past.

My only gripe is that because I didn't blind PO I have to wait until the second wave of casts, but that's not a hug deal to me, just a minor annoyance.

Hats are supposed to be casted the 10th, right?

Re: WGP's RAIDERS Jones- at casters now!

That's good to know,

I've been attempting to budget for this for months!

Any word on the casting?
