Those USMC utility hat heads look ace!! Especially the one in the middle. Will use it for my Master Gun.
Those personalty heads are an absolutely great idea!

If there is any chance to add an head: my addition would be (and lone dirty dog is going to like it):

Sergeant Hartman: I am Gunnery Sergeant Hartman, your senior drill instructor!!

And Iam biased with my Space Sharks needing some, but I'm for those SEALS conversion parts.

I can see Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone and Killgore but who is the other head modelled after, if anyone at all?

that is BRILLIANT work Steve! what a bloody excellent concept and execution, this is what the hobby needs something fun and fresh that really builds input and customization, I can't wait to get my hands on those and get painting! I'm guessing I need to work some good stubble goodness on 'Christmas'

WOAH!!
Fantastic sculpting on all your personalities...but this one tops them all!

You already had him ready?? Therefore only the 4 heads on the sprue?!!

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman:
The deadliest weapon in the world is a Marine and his rifle. It is your killer instinct which must be harnessed if you expect to survive in combat. Your rifle is only a tool. It is a hard heart that kills. If your killer instincts are not clean and strong you will hesitate at the moment of truth. You will not kill. You will become dead Marines. And then you will be in a world of gak. Because Marines are not allowed to die without permission! Do you maggots understand?

Thanks guys.

@miniholic: Just worked him up this afternoon I have the process down by now so there isn't much to think about on something like that.

I'll be adding this to the sprue for a total of 5 heads.

Hey it's good to be loved! My single goal is to make all the things I wish I would have had when I was knee-deep in the hobby. Eventually, I will get back to my own projects and start using this stuff myself. For now, I just want to give folks what they want, as much as possible.

Today just became a great day nice one Steve and great job pulling that out of the hat so to speak, at this rate I will need a second job or remortgage

I was going to ask about a couple of commission jobs but you seem to be covering them of your own back, although I have still got 1 or 2 in mind.

Now what is the ETA on these heads for release I don't want to miss out on these

@miniholic I did

Just got my latest order Yes that good the heads are spot on love all of them great job really impressed.

The pulse rifles are even better in the err resin detail crisp and spot on, will work perfectly with those colonial marine heads which are just amazing (will be getting more).

Heads with aviator sunglasses are just brilliant what a good idea that was the vet heads have turned out great the small bolt details have come out really well.

The bonnie hat heads were a real surprise as they look way better than the renders, the detail is nice and pronounced and will paint up well.

Now the tanker heads well they are a work of art indeed they are just great, love the goggles and coms really pull the model together.

Overall an amazing success, Steve AMAZING JOB WELL DONE

Steve,

Since you want to make figure heads for characters, I've always wanted to have A Team of specialists who are on the run. It's a reoccurring dream I have. Th leader is the wise older guy who enjoys smoking cigars and likes Jazz. Theirs a guy who's good at requisitioning item and has a pretty Face. There's a Mr. Goodwrench in the team who has a bad attitude most of the times, but is still kid friendly. Lastly theirs this guy that is a great pilot, but is more of a space cadet if you get my drift. any chance of seeing something along those lines. If needed I might be able to find some pictures of people that I believe could fit the bill nicely for inspiration.

I got my first order today. The quality really sets the standard - the pulse rifles and boonie hats are crisp and beautiful and absolutely flawless, ready to wash and prime right from the envelope. Very impressed with the quality - I definitely would recommend highly.

Also, they came in a few days, in a box and not an envelope - very pleased with that as well.

I think you spelled "whet" wrong. The wet you wrote would indicate water ... divers ... hold on, I think I just got it! I love wordplay.

Everything you've been putting out is really top shelf. The heads look really clean and well done. I love some of your competitors heads, but alot of them are done by hand rather than by CAD, so it looks a bit more ... irregular. The CAD sculpting just looks so much cleaner and neater and well polished. Keep up the amazing work.

It's an ugly planet. A bug planet.

Got my orders today and am the happiest modeler of all!!!
Outstanding quality on all pieces, heads and weapons! Not one with any flaws and I ordered some!!
Those Pulse Rifles are IMHO an absolute must have!! They will most certainly be used with my hopefully soon coming Dreamforge Stormtroopers.

Thanks Steve!!
