Sculptor looking for work
« on: 13 September 2012, 03:34:18 PM »
Over the next few months I have some free slots available if anyone is looking to have some sculpting work done.
You can see examples of my work at:

Contact me on tidyfiguremaker@yahoo.co.uk for rates and conditions.
Cheers,
Ian.

There is always that, although I'm actually of the thinking that I need to redo the original one and bring him into scale with the figures I've been doing for Crooked Dice. I also got this lovely bagman agent almost finished but he's true 28mm and so a lot smaller to my developed style.

I'm another admirer of your work, although commissioning figures or a range is currently beyond my means.  :'(

I'd suggest you push 'Mountain Miniatures' more though. I've always wanted to see a range of 1950's era civilians, gangsters and cops (think Dragnet, Noir movies, LA Confidential and the forthcoming Gangster Squad etc.). It would be complimentary to what you've done for Crooked Dice, without treading on their toes. All the gangster ranges I know of are 1920's, which really don't work for the 50's.

One customer here already!  :)

I like the look of that new series, definately one that I will watch when it makes it over here.
I really should make some more figures for my own range but it's not easy to find the time after commission work to do them.

At the speed I paint, just fitting an occasional one in now and then would put pressure on me.  lol   That being said, it would be surprising how quickly you built up a range, just by working on a single figure occasionally, alongside your paying work.

But please... bear it in mind, the separate heads and weapons etc, a la Crooked Dice, would be ideal. Obviously I can't predict how interested other people would be though.

The series you're thinking of is Frank Darabont's 'LA Noir'... same topic and time frame though (different book). GS is a movie.
