heddo.
i have finally moved into my new apartment and am about to set up my big ol' work area, and in all seriousness.. i need to build a big shiny impressive portfolio so that todd will hire me. i want you people to help me.
i got the idea from everyone joking about jhonen and RWAM oldies figures in GD that i could actually make them. so. what i need from peoples who think that's a spiffykeen idea is-
-photos of your head, from front, back, side, and quarter(of your face)
-full body shot, front and back
-description of the outfit you want your figure to be wearing (or even better - a photo)
-description of a few little accessories (ie - stuffed toys, comics, blabla.) throw a few out there and i'll choose.
-your height
now. I AM NOT GOING TO DO EVERYONE. that would be impossible and stinky of all the moosers to expect. i'll pick and choose who to do myself- starting with the mods, then going on to the 'VIP' members, then going on from there. yes, i will make the mooseconners before others. i don't care if you think that's unfair. wheeeeee.
after they're made and i have had nice shiny pictures taken of them then i will offer them for SALE, yo. (for not that much. because um.. yeah.)
also keep in mind that this may take a while. it WILL take a while. hooray.
so. anybody want to help? eh?

Ooh. I wanna be one. Can I draw a picture of myself though, instead of providing photos?
deadish
05-10-2005, 01:31 PM
: D of course. actually yes.. that is another option for peoples who do not want their actual cartoony likenesses spread. (like shadowfox.. will be a black fox. ^_^)
plus i would LOVE to sculpt one of your designs. yayy.

You already have my images, as well as my heart, for taking on this project.
I'll be more than happy to supply advertising once the job is done, however, and possibly come up with ideas for stuff.
Perhaps some of the other arty people could design like...a package. I could work with the other martketing-type people to come up with a gimmick: like that whole cabbage patch kids being "adopted", the beanie babies each having those little poem thingies, and so on, and so on.

Um.
How many of each are you planning to make? If you made a mold, you could make a whole bunch.
deadish
05-10-2005, 02:40 PM
this i have thought of. :3
i have some mold material so i just may. that would also make them much less 'spensive.. in case others wanted to buy.
I'm a half mooseconner, you know. More like three quarters.

Eep. Extensive idea. Yet, fun! Good luck to you, I would love to see how well these turn out. And I'd love to buy some to fit for my shelf-- Just think, a KobaBoba to pick up and play with every night! :333
(I'd totally buy a ClaireXPlode battleset, if the idea sticks.)

So how will we buy these? The only way I can is through mail, would that be okay?
KLEIN
05-10-2005, 06:40 PM
Might want to consider ebay. Just a "buy it now" option, if you want to keep the price constant.
I'd be willing to spend 30 dollars without even seeing these. That is the monetary value of my trust for deadish.
A Vile doll is a must have for the new Spring season, you know.

STOP.
model time.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/radiof/hammer.gif
If I get one made, I don't want it to be of myself, really. And I hate any and all pictures of me anyways, so I'll probably end up throwing up a cartoonish pic of some character I made up way back when. Most likely the Sonic The Hedgehog fan-charactor thingy...because it's probaby the least stupid looking of all of them.
Whatever. At least it will probably be easier to model than a real person, right?
(Hah, I'm talking like mine will actually be made.)

I'll be direct, but dont feel in any way pressured.
Do I count as a VIP member in your eyes, or one worth making a figure of?
Either way, I have a few questions:
1) When you say "action figure", do you mean poseable (screws/springs)? I dont imagine so. Im thinking more plastic still pose, ya?
2) How big, and what level of detail/quality are we talking?
3) Do you have any previous works as a reference (or is that what you're making now - I've seen your plush work, and it's beautiful. I've seen no plastic work, though)?
I'd easily pay $100AU (cheque or direct deposit) for a Dr. Badman figure. If you're interested just let me know, and I'll send everything you need.

oh man, i'd pay any named price for these. i'd add them to my collection of "why k is a complete and total loser".
i'll pm you some drawings of me sometime soon. in hopes i'll be one of the "going on from there" people.
tater
05-11-2005, 02:51 PM
wow! i never thought these would actually materialize. i'd totally buy a claire/implode battleset. oh the fun that could be had. and klein .... dude. i want one. i could make little films about klein's adventures in wonderland. ooooh! ooooooohhhhh! although i might be tempted to do bad things with an Argo figure. :steff:
you could use some of the pictures from the last moosecon. i think you should make the kathdemons set and include little teacups or crumpets in our hands. :)

VIP as in a known presence on the boards. someone who has been here a while and who has had a bit of impact. i suppose you'd count in that number. :P
1- with this project i'm going to try out my designs.. i'll most likely be able to make arm waist and head articulations.. we'll see.
2- perhaps five inches at the tallest. once i start getting info from people.. again we'll have to see. :P i'm going to make design sheets for the people who send photographs so they will be 'cartoony'.. but not terribly.
i am a perfectionist when it comes to sculpting and i love to make tinytiny detailed thingies.
3- http://www.angeltowns.net/membercenter/100/deadish/art/sculptures/nnyallangles.jpg (modeling clay. and now he is DEAD! MAHAHAA)
.. i also have a tiny dib i was making until he had an unfortunate meeting with my mirror... but that's pretty much it. i have been sculpting since i was a wee squirrel so i can secretly do that better than anything.
also until i can find and afford better materials these will be made from sculpey and fimo.
this is going to be practice and learning for meee. i'm being selfish and using ALL OF YOU!
yay.

the reason i haven't responded to this is because dave borrowed my camera and somehow managed to sever the USB cord over the course of one weekend. so. i'll get on the pictures as soon as i get that situation handled.
also, this is the coolest moose project ever and we should appoint deadish with an honorary modship just for being cool enough to do it.
Davey Rootbeer
05-13-2005, 06:54 PM
I came up with the idea, and am putting myself in charge of the marketing/promotion of these figures, which comes with a 10% share of all total profits after taxes, and some free cookies. Deadish, of course, will get the bulk of the profits, and a modship, as well as a future subforum should the market grow large enough.
THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO. THE CONTRACT HAS ALREADY BEEN SIGNED.
It is uncontestable.
MEGA JEW POWERS, UNITE!
