Oh dont say that word!!

Im sure there is a reasonable explanation for this. The fact that these busts were commissioned and the hand with the mask was later commissioned and was made for only a few, add to the puzzle. Then all of this was created to an FS for me as one of a kind.

Seems like there are alot of parties involved. Who knows who did what at some point. Backtracking all this to find out is going to be a bear!

Im not sure if I want to put that much effort into finding out who did what at one point in the development of all this...

It would be very interesting but then Im in this for the enjoyment of it. I will do what I can

the mask wasnt made for any of the busts except for the one i personaly gave saul and that went to texas to get painted...

so these are the possibilities (since i didnt sell any to anyone in brazil)

the sculptor who had the original molds sold the original...
the sculptor who had the original molds sold some out the backdoor for a piece he was paid in full for and didnt have the permission to do
the sculptor sold the molds to someone and they released it in brazil which he didnt have the right to do

or its a recast....

Ok...I must have missed this. So who was THE sculptor who had the original molds?

This means that it comes down to this person? Or the recast of hand?? Or Recast of Sculpt?

edhino sculpted and had the original molds for everything including the hand...

how he works is hell sculpt the piece cast it and send it to the person who commissioned it...(leaving him with the orginal and original molds) than the person who commissioned it will make the molds here and sell them

because shipping from brazil theres a big chance the original might get destroyed

so its either edhino sold the original sculpt....
he sold them out the back door
sold the original molds
or its a recast

Nice piece ! I try to ban its history from my mind because no matter what anyone else writes, I know the people who commissioned it in the beginning never saw it to begin with so let alone send it through to a recaster.

I'm good friends with Boonie and I know he bought the original sculpt off his buddy. I was there when he got it and I remember seeing the other hand. It looked cool but I didn't like the mask at all. Boonie should be the ONLY seller of that piece.
Looks like it's leaning recast.
