Ha ha ha crafty buying scheme you have going here Ishkatar and yes I know where the legs go he has been waiting for those a while

Review yes but where on here your website ?

Smurf crossover what battling turtles I think you should build Bebop and Rocksteady I would snap them up in a second

@ LDD
I'd love to sell you some better legs some day...

That's not that relevant where you'll post this review - we can always link it where we need Your blog will do just great

Those two I'd love to make, but it'll take quite some work to design them to fit this angular style. And something smurfy I can make for fun sake

Got you I have these visions of fighting smurfs how badass would that be trenchcoat wearing shotgun wielding smurfs with shades

Classic pit fighter smurf dam I have lost it now

Ok I will write a review somewhere then although my thread has been dead for way too long

Better legs you say these look pretty good plus I have one complete guy now at least

P.S. forgot to say I like the box they came in as well nice to see the design on it, the only thing is I want to keep the bloody box now

@LDD:

schleich needs to make these... or a certain other company

I think with smurfs like this the old chaps would be open to a whole new customership/ target group

LMAO that is so AWESOME !!!! you must make this and don't forget Papa smurf as the Don and Smurfette as the mole


That picture rocks I want the picture with my next order by the way

I want the heads to be detachable incase I want to make the smurf marine army everyone talks about as actual smurfs

Don't care I will find a small frame to display it in and put it on the wall in my man cave I showed the misses it last night and she thought it looked really cool as well (high praise indeed)

Guard it with your life

Now if you draw the Papa and smurfette versions as well I can have a small gallery on the wall so pencil to paper crack on mate I am serious by the way

Now get producing this as a miniature as I think I have found the perfect Smurf Blue paint

OMG! the radical and belligerent Smurf Army! Tired of the term used on Ultramarines, the angered and riled up msurfs come boiling out of the forest in camo, armed to the teeth and driving their vehicles to war!

Hehe, seems there are still lots of smurf-fans out there And this one's definitely worth sculpting...

On the mutant topic - while waiting for Raph copies we work on the scenic display base for what you can call "collectors edition". Designing it was a real pain: we tried many ideas, many themes, many layouts... some were really cool but way to big and expensive for production, so we'll stick with the classics. Here are some WIP pics of the lower "podium" Ish is working on atm, the base will also feature the back piece with a place for Raph, but I'm not ready to show it yet. Take note, that each figure stands on a special removable mini-base, so people can take them out for a table top round and then put back on a display without and difficulties.



Your input is, as always, welcome!

that is amazing... you guys are so forward thinking and nevertheless so classy.... base construction is a wonderful theme... and you tailored it also fit for other uses... I think you should follow that road a bit further and make other smaller display bases... around four to six models worth of space... this could be a new idea for your shop...

since there is still a slice missing (slice...get it?...) I am looking forward to the "rest"...

all thumbs up for this piece!!!

nice!!!
for once i 'm happy to be poor, since by the time i can afford to buy some Turtles, they will have a cool display base, too...

keep up the good work...

cheers
jah

OOOOOO DAM COWABUNGAAAAAA !!!!!!!

OK basically it is too dam cool not to own this , so when you have it finished I am in for a slice of the pie hey Vik you like that get it ok it was poor but hey ho

You better sculpt that smurf

Thx guys! Here is how it looks with the back piece:



Still quite some work left.

i think a new adjective is needed... I will call this "cinema"...

this diorama is totally cinema for me....!

@ Vik
Charlie's Angels enough?

definitely... you´ve hit the nail on its proverbial head with this one!!!

one suggestion...on the right, where there is still room in the wall, I would add a small drain...

I need it! IneeditIneeditIneedit!!!!

Clever use of posing and positioning the characters actually frame the display base by there directional posing, very clever indeed

I WANT ONE! NAOW!

@ Vik
Stay sure we'll squeeze as much detail there as we can without overcrowding space

@ WP
We'll be happy to provide The plan is to make two bundles one with just the figures and the "collectors" with this display.

@ LDD
Thx pal, glad that people perceive it as intended

@ deadmeat
Soon mate, we're working hard

I have a friend who likes the turtles a LOT
I can have to order them with my evil ronin and work on them and present them to him and cover my ears for the Sqweeeeee!!! he will present me with when he gets turtles like this.

Great work to the pair of you. Looks brilliant.

Very tempted.

Raph looks great! And definitely complies with "Most attitude on the team"!

The base is genius!

No we need a Shredder, Bebop and Rocksteady!

@shaso
Don't forget to send us pictures we'd love to see a happy customers face

@Dr H
Thanks!

@ RSJake
Wow mate! Nice to see you back here! And thank you!

@WP
Ok, ok... back to work...

BTW, still WIP, but almost there:



Cheers!

OK I have to ask but did you scu;pt the bends on the pie work ? or did you bend the plastic rod ?

@ LDD
All bends are sculpted.
