[Darth Mystery]

Thanks.

[Ink]

I highly doubt it

[geto10]

I hope SS will release one :)

[Darth Mystery]

Some questions about the Bowen, yes i know this is a Sideshow thread and i hope they'll make one too.

Here are two pictures of the painted and chrome versions.

What exactly are the differences and could anyone put up more detailed pictures of both.

Does anyone has this expierence?

[Darth Mystery]

Could anyone tell me which one this is.
I like the action pose.

Anyone has more detailed pictures?
Thanks guys.

They all looks great, but i have a feeling SS might release silver surfer PF, for the fantastic4 movie.

Thats from Marvel, Art Asylum & Diamond select.

[Juggernaut]

I hope SS will release one :)

A Silver Surfer comiquette should realy have been announced at the Con.

A Silver Surfer comiquette should realy have been announced at the Con.

that's what I'm sayin

[Vracula]

right now if i had to choose a silver surfer it would be the bowen museum pose chrome.however i really want to see what sideshow can muster up

[darthmatrix]

A Silver Surfer comiquette should realy have been announced at the Con.




Agreed. I still think SS will make one at some point.

[SolidLiquidFox]

I agree that Sideshow missed the boat at the con. A SS comiquette would have been the icing in the cake given the lack of a Marvel PF.

Right now, Bowen's upcoming action pose looks pretty good. I would not pay the ebay prices for the museum version without seeing what Sideshow is doing first.

[P1X4R]

painted has the "bite" on the base and closed fist. chrome has an open fist. do you really want detailed pics? :)

oh, and the bases are different also.

i would love to see Sideshow come out with a Silver Surfer comiquette! for now the Bowen statues are tops.

I can't wait to see the action SS from BD

[geto10]

Cool shots ED! :D

[rilynil]

I've got the DST chrome Surfer, and it's one of my favorite pieces.
There was a nonchrome version produced, but I think the shinier the better!

[Darth Mystery]

painted has the "bite" on the base and closed fist. chrome has an open fist. do you really want detailed pics? :)

Ed thanks for the pics :thumbs2:, could you make a few shots more?

Which do you prefer, the painted or the chrome?

Can you tell me what happened to the chrome on one of the pictures i've posted. Or can anyone else?
It looks like the chrome broke in thousend pieces and i don't want that to happen to this piece when i buy one.

[Darth Mystery]

Rilynil, thanks for the pics :thumbs2:

I must say i love the action pose ont this one.
What kind of material is it?
And please tell me how big is it?

[loricstone]

If you are going with a Chrome Silver Surfer then Bowen is obviously the way to go (if you want to spend $500+).

As far as a Painted Silver Surfer, the Hard Hero is far and away the best Surfer on the market (that will set you back $200+). Not only is he a more accurate rendition of the Silver Surfer, the pose is dynamic and is a better painted SS than Bowens version! HH's Silver paint app looks like Silver paint. BD's looks more gray to me. Here are some pics that no one has posted on this thread as of yet.

If you can ever find the chrome version of the HH SS(only one in existence), then get that one as that is the best chrome Surfer on the market!

[Force of Nature]

Wow; these are truly great pics Cap!

Thanks for sharing them with us!

:eek: whoow, i haven't seen this one before. This makes it hard for me.
Love the first pic you made, without the flash.
Thank you and Cap for these pics.

You say there is 1!!! chrome version of this one???
I want it :banghead:
The painted goes for about 200,00 dollars?
Anyone know where i can get one?

[Darth Mystery]

Seems that you were uploading pics still, Cap.
Thank for these great shots! :thumbs2:

You convinced me, i now need one! :buttrock:

[DSET]

Ebay and if you want an AP, check RazorsEdge.com. It will set you back $350! Don't know if they sold out of the one they had. Last I checked was a week ago. No one knows where the HH Chrome SS is! Word is that if it goes up for sale, it would be posted no less than 1K! Good luck with your decision!

Because it is not finished! Bowen is supposed to retweak the board and arm! Looks darn good, but won't consider this until it is finished!

[loricstone]

Also, I like the bigger size of the HH statues over Bowens smaller scale.

[DSET]

Well I'd still wait untill its done and weigh out you're options after it comes out.
if you're gonna buy just 1 that is

[DSET]

Also, I like the bigger size of the HH statues over Bowens smaller scale.

isnt that HH silver Surfer 1:5
?

they both look similar in size

[loricstone]

HH Surfer is 1:6th scale. Bowen's is 1/8th. The HH Surfer is about 14" tall but it is much more massive than Bowen's. Not heavy per se, but consumes a little more room!

[Darth Mystery]

What happened with this chrome statue? :confused:

Does anyone has this expierence?

http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p310/darthmystery/SilverSurferChromeStrange.jpg

Silver Surfer went out and got too much suntanning :redface:

:confused: you mean it got to hot or something and the chrome cracked?

You're welcome, Darth! This Surfer is chromed resin. And it stands about 12 inches tall.

Here's a pic of the Surfer next to the Bowen Phoenix for a size comparison:

Wow, you should send that to Bowen and ask them whats up. Is that yours?

IMO It looks like it was sprayed with a spatter white to give a "cosmic" effect.

Why do you have the Surfer outside??? I thought the elements were bad to subject a statue too! Was it overcast? Great super clear shots! Wonderful! Damn, with shots like that of the HH Surfer, how can anyone not like it? Mybe it's just me??:confused:

[P1X4R]

i always shoot in the shade or when it's overcast. it's only outdoors for the photoshoot. not kept over night. lol

those are really great pics. this shot actually looks like SS floating around in your yard! :thumbs2:

makes me want to buy a HH SS (if i could find one). i think it is the best action pose out there at this time. the DST chrome is nice as well but the pointed board killed it for me.

[Batfan]

I've got the DST chrome Surfer, and it's one of my favorite pieces.
There was a nonchrome version produced, but I think the shinier the better!

http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k42/nadams65/DSC02502-2.jpg

I hope Sideshow makes a Silver Surfer one day. Bowen's new Surfers look really cool, too.

that's also my favorite and it looks awsome with the f4 diorama :thumbs2:

[Poisonous]

Hey Ed? What lens did you use for those shots? The 24-70mm?

Whatever lens it was, it's capable of some real magic :thumbs2:

It's just what i need, a lens that produces clear shots even in really dim lighting.

Incredible shot. The right hand is somewhat out of focus, but wow, great shot nonetheless.

http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w193/p1x4r_2007/tmp/IMG_7328.jpg

[Trilogy]

Sweet pics as always P. :thumbs2:

[cougartrace]

Man, Pix can take them shots..

Bowen Chrome is best museum pose.

HH has best action pose..hands down

[P1X4R]

thanks guys!

Rich, i used a Sigma 30mm Lens f/1.4 with these shots. the out of focus right hand in that pic you mentioned is due to the f/1.4 aperture i used for that shot. i wanted to really blur the background but i probably should have gone 4.0 or stepped back a little. good eye! sometimes it's hard to completely capture the subject in clear focus without including details in the background. i think it's because i use "center weighted average" as the metering mode. maybe i should try "evaluative" or "partial" metering..

Looks like it has superb low-light focusing though and a definitive buy for me when i give the EOS 400D (EU name) another shot. Thanks for the info Ed!

[RD13]

The HH SS is my personal favorite ( and least expensive of them). You could just wait to see what the final product will look like on the "action pose" SS by Bowen.

[Darth Mystery]

Thank you very much for all the efforts you took to show us your pics. You honor your name P1X4R
