You've captured the Art Deco look perfectly there.

Thanks guys!

Excellent work - very useful, I can't believe no one makes these commercially already :)

I'm afraid these aren't going to be commercial either mate. I've just done these for Anpu.

If there was ever enough call for them I could make another and maybe get it cast.....

I think there could be. If this thread has shown anything, it's the multiplicity of uses they'd be put to.

I will be making a mould for my own use but will not produce any for sale. I don't have the means or time for massproduction even if I had Andy's express permission to do so. In my opinion what I gave for the sculpts is not enough to include productin rights anyway.
They look great and if Andy feels he wants to have them produced that would be great but I am not really in a position to do so.

If you don't mind a bit of work with a knife, the head one does have something you can get a version of.

There's the marvel random soft plastic blind packaging line called "Fistful of Heroes" that came out a few years ago. There's a spider-man one where he's perched on one that looks just like it. Cut Spidey off and you've got a good one that you can probably cast up easily if you want to and they tend to be rather cheap the last time I looked...someone locally used a LOT of them she got off of eBay for a building she put together for the Batman minis game...

Brilliant work as ever, Andy.
I say it every time, but you've missed your vocation. You're an artist.

Perosnally, I would buy at least a few of the Chrysler building eagle for a few 40K terrain pieces.

Moulds made and the first casts done...






Now for using them on houses.
Gotham, Megacity 1, or both that is the question.

Hmm the pictures seem deformed rather than cropped, well photobucket usually catches up after a while, otherwise new pics later...

***Now the pics look fine.
