Definitely wonderful! Glad you like it!

[neutronbomb]

Sweet. Give us the story.

[RCSignals]

it looks real. Be careful around it! :read:

[crismans]

That's just beautiful (in a creepy way! ;) )!

[hovitos loincloth]

Well I wanted to make a prop that nobody had done and no two are the same as they're all individually painted. Turned out ok I thought......and makes a handy door stop. ;D

[djd]

It's better than ok! It's one of the nicest Indy artefacts I have. Beautifully made. It's sitting in the corner of my nerd room- staring at me...

[faststreetsofhongkong]

Let's hope it doesn't come alive in a big Auton type way...Mwahahahaha

[djd]

You've got me worried about my auton sofa now...

[hovitos loincloth]

Gah! Too late!

I did warn to be careful around it >:D

[bigrex]

The green moss staining looks very convincing from the pic, among other things.

[G-MANN]

That is some beautiful work ! Very well done.

Cheers,

First of all, this is a totally cool prop. What's it made out of/How did you make it. Second of all, are you in the vendor/prop making business. If so, let us know the deal. I could see this as a cool thing to pick up.

:agree:

It's made out of a resin plaster called Jesmonite to give it a hefty statue weight and feel. Unfortunately the run of 10 is all sold out so only a few gear heads got them. :(

[neutronbomb]

Are you planning on doing another run. I'd be interested in hearing if you are, pricing, number, timeline etc.

[djd]

I think it would require some serious arm twisting...

[neutronbomb]

lol. oh well.....lucky you;D. Great piece. :toast:

[PLATON]

All those small statues in that movie were great.

[hovitos loincloth]

There won't be any more I'm afraid :( I've had to replace a couple that the club fisted sloths...sorry , delivery couriers have smashed in transit so the whole project is turning into chore rather than a pleasure as they're all hand made, finished and painted. Maybe DJD's piece will accumulate in value. ;)
