First, that test pull looks amazing to say the least! I have nothing but admiration for the quality of the work you guys are creating and the level of authenticity that you strive for, not just with this sculpt, but with all the projects you undertake! Bravo.

  • Full Size Body sculpted in a Specific Movie Pose (6'1" - Accurate to Heath Ledger's Body Specs.)
  • Movie Accurate Clothing
  • ..Magic Pencil
Right now Bob is working on the face and I'm working to locate the exact brand clothing used in the movie with help of some production guys that actually worked on the movie. I already located some parts of the costume (exact size, exact brand) - and now working on the rest. We try to nail it as close as possible.

Just to give you an idea..The English Clothing Company Turnbull & Asser (who dresses up the UK Royal Family, James Bond and many more) made the ties that costume department used on Heath Ledger. It was a limited run of only 50 ties made worldwide including the ones worn by Heath Ledger in the movie..Out of that run of 50 Turnbull & Asses Joker ties, we secured the last 5 pieces for our Joker project.

We also have couple of screen used costumes worn by Heath Ledger himself in his earlier movies (The Patriot, 10 Things I hate About You, Lords of the Dogtown, Casanova etc) - so those will guide us a lot to while tailor our Joker costume parts to fit perfectly on him.

If eveything goes well, we have plans for two exciting Joker "moments" during October / November , so stay tuned
I thought you guys were just doing a 1:1 bust, this is going to be a sight to behold! Awesome to hear that you guys are making it as authentic as possible. Can't wait to see the final product!

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

This particular silicone copy will go to trash once we correct the mistakes, and do the updated second mold . Bob's so strict about his sculpture and his standards are so high that he won't let any test-copies of his work survive.

Enjoy!

Throw it in the trash huh? GIMMIE!!!!!!!!!
