Paquet's "Monster" Cabinet of Curiosities bust

[rilynil]

My Monster bust just arrived today and WOW! If anyone is on the fence about this series, I suggest you land on the ground with your feet running and get one of these! Sculpted by William Paquet, the Monster has great detail and -- at 8 inches tall -- has some serious heft to it! Mine is No. 50 of 500.

I didn't order "The Bride" with "The Monster" and now I see I've made a mistake. I'm going to order a Bride really soon.

I really hope the line continues. The Hyde bust is awesome!

[Tommy Allison]

That is sweet.

[Nitefall]

I was going to ask you if you ordered the bride. The monster is a killer! Congratulations!!:thumbs2:

[rilynil]

OK, I couldn't take it another hour. I just now e-mailed ReelArtStudios to order the Bride.

My Monster is lonely! (errr, boy, that sounds a little sad and pretentious at the same time ...:confused2 )

My monster detolf is shaping up! I've got Buffy pieces, Marvel Zombies, Man-Thing, Michael Myers and Walking Dead zombies and now a Paquet Monster! :)

[riderV3]

Man I wanted to see how the Bride turns out, that monster is looking great!!

Paquet is the master of the dead things!!

[bane]

Looks great , hope to see these soon in Europe !

I preordered both and I'm chewing at the bit waiting for them. Just received notice from my supplier that they couldn't get them from their normal distributer and had to now go straight to the source.
I hope all will be cool. That Monster looks even better than I thought and I thought he looked pretty damn good in the 1st place. 5-7 days to ship, I hope I can make it. Great shots Rilynil. :thumbs2:

You know you can order them straight from ReelArt too.

The Monster's Bride arrived today! She's a creepy beauty! WOW!

Great pics, as usual. These two were made to be displayed together. Glad you got her. :thumbs2:

[hellspawn77]

These are great! :buttrock:

What scale are they? 1/6th?

Claudio

[William Paquet]

Thanks Claudio.

I think 1/6 is close. I'm just about to start working on a full size sculpt of the Monster at a height of 12 inches. That would be proper height for a 6 foot tall figure in scale, but since he's "the MONSTER" I'd say it's safe to assume he would be closer to 14 inches at 1/6.

[Kirk Durfey]

I FINALLY got mine! These are simply amazing pieces, I highly recommend them to all fans of beautiful sculpture :buttrock:

Great job, Bill and Michael - I look forward to more!

[snappahead]

Frickin sweet! I didn't know about these until now, but I just ordered. These look fantastic.

You won't be disappointed you ordered them, Chris! I LOVE these busts! My two are simply screaming for some company to be displayed with! :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock:

Oh, that's nice!

I just read your post, William. Is this still in the works? And would it be a GK or a pre-paint? Thanks in advance!

[William Paquet]

Still in the works, currently the finished product type is up in the air. I wish I didn't have so many other commitments because I would love to just get this piece done right now.

[VaultMan]

Paquet is the master of the dead things!!

:bawling: Scary.

:buttrock: But he rocks.

[protector2814]

Any updates on this line? Sneaks would sure be appreciated. I know it's only July but I've already started thinking about Halloween and more Monsters.

[shiflettbrothers]

very cool

havent had much time on the forum lately so sorry for all the questions on all your threads WP.

any updates on the production of the fullsize?

did you ever show a pic of the finished piece?

[William Paquet]

FS Monster has been pushed back on the schedule due to other commitments. Time is the enemy.

[Monty Props]

Hey William, is the Mr. Hyde bust still a go? I loved the Monster, but Hyde is the one I really want.

[Monty Props]

Bump.

[ReelArt Studios]

Our intent is to try and get Hyde out in 2009. Sorry for the delay in responding. I just saw your "bump."

Any others? Just very curious and excited. My Cabinet of Curiosities shelf could sure use another shot in the arm.

I think it was Hyde and The Phantom. Our plans were to do two a year.

The fact that it's still even on the schedule is great news. Thanks for the update, William.

[rilynil]

I'm so pumped for Hyde! He's been No. 1 on my list since I saw the first four previewed! :)

Thanks for the response. That's great news! This was my favorite one. Have there been any changes to the piece since it was previewed?

[ReelArt Studios]

No, no changes from its original preview.

[HalJordanFan]

Can't wait too see it in person!

[shiflettbrothers]

Big Will!

I love the Monster and Bride busts, nice work on those.

[TNovak]

I'm looking forward to recieving the Monster and Bride that I won in the RAS contest in another thread and then adding to the collection as they become available. Is there any word when in 2009 the additional pieces (Hyde and Phantom) will be coming available?

[Makkari1]

I'd be curious to see this as a fs.

[TNovak]

I'd be curious to see this as a fs.

Do you mean a whole new sculpt or just put legs on this one? I don't know much about sculpting but I believe as part of my prize I am receiving the original head of the monster sculpt. I don't know why it would be seperated from the body but that is my understanding. Maybe William can explain it better. I am really looking forward to it in any case

The head is separate because I re used the rest of the wax that comprised the figure.

Your stuff will ship soon, I just have to noodle a few things first.

Wow that never even occured to me. I suppose you've sculpted so much cool stuff it is no big deal to just re-use the wax, I was just thinking that you had all your original stuff stored somewhere. Still will be cool to have the original head though. I will have to work up a display idea for it. Anybody got any suggestions?

[Nightcrawler777]

i just got both of these off ebay for a steal (80 shipped for both)
Can't wait to get these..
Always been a fan of Williams DC work but i loves me some monsters way more then Super-heroes..

Congratulations, Nightcrawler! I love these busts. I'm hoping some more characters will eventually be made. :)

[Monty Props]

Really hoping Mr. Hyde is still in the works. This is the one I've wanted since seeing the initial sneaks ages ago.

[Nightcrawler777]

Congratulations, Nightcrawler! I love these busts. I'm hoping some more characters will eventually be made. :)

Just got them today and you are right there perfect...
