Sil Maquette (Paintup)

Just thought I would drop on by and share some images (and there are a bunch) of an AWESOME sculpt released by SIDESHOW COLLECTIBLES.
Sculpted by the extremely talented team known as "The Gore Group", and painted by yours truly.
This piece is one for the books. I was shocked once we got production samples in from overseas (was shown at SDCC)....the production paint is about as close as you can get to the paint master! If you are a fan of Specias, or H.R. Giger, head on over to www.sideshowcollectibles.com and order one up, you won't be sorry.

have a look.

Build up.

OK...here is the next batch. These are images of the different components of SIL. You can see the clear casted parts that were painted on the inside, as well as on the outside surface. The inner face, and torso....which you don't really get to see in the assembled piece, but make all the difference when all together.

Beautiful maquette.

[Bullseye]

It is indeed. The Gore Group are an amazing bunch of sculptors but credit the painter on this one too.

sculpt and paint up are exceptional, too bad I am not a fan of the movie

I hope they produce a 1:1 Bust. :buttrock:

This is the gem of SDCC imo. Love it and great price.

Edition size still to be announced but I'm really curious what it will be.
