Are you doing a metallic finish for her, Jesse?

Are you doing a metallic finish for her, Jesse?

I'm planning on doing the mask, arm and base in gold chrome paint.

Here are some new updates, she should be finished by this weekend. :)

Hi Jesse
How would I go about aquiring a bust like that. What processes etc?

[Jesse321]

Do you mean a copy of this one, or a commission of your own?


If you mean a copy of this one, I will be molding it and selling castings. As with any other model it, it will need some minor assembly and painting ... which is honestly very simple, you can do ti yourself or have someone do it for you.


If you mean a commissioned piece of your own, just contact a sculptor with your idea and get it done ... it's not really very difficult ... but it can be expensive and time consuming which is why I sell a limited amount of castings to offset the cost of getting these pieces made up.


You can visit our website ... www.garagekits.us ... there's lots of information there about kits, painting, commissioning and so forth. :)

She's finished ...

Inspiring work.

It'll inspire me to wish i could make something like that!

[Rom2099]

AMAZING !!!!!

[DelBubs]

Can you show us a pic when she's all painted up. Gonna look so good.

[Le Messor]

Jesse, you're gonna hate me, but that's the wrong flower. At least my interpretation is, Byrne was going for the Peace Lily:

2421

Note that her collar matches the petal, with her head being the 'stamen'. Also, the peace lily represents death.

Okay, okay - your lily looks great. You should know that.

Spike: (Flaccid? Me?) You are one step away, missy.
Buffy: Giles help. He's gonna scold me.

[Jesse321]

WEll, it's too late to do anything about it now ... the piece has already been molded and is being cast.

[Mystic]

Even if that's the case, the statue looks beautiful and you've got a very jealous person typing at this keyboard right now :P

[Le Messor]

Oh, yeah, I'm also jealous... sorry to pick nits.

I still have to do some touch ups on the inner mask, but it's 2:30 in the morning and I'm exhausted.

Good job! You sure enjoy your work!
