luke314pi Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 First a few new commission pieces: Ultimate Green Hulk 3" Minimate, decals for face and chest, apoxie sculpt for hair. Sasquatch 3" Minimate, decals for face and chest, apoxie sculpt for hair. Size comparison (click to view larger): Spider-Man Unlimited The person that ordered this definitely had some guts! With that said, I think the costume looks great on a minimate. Stan Lee Here is Stan the Man in case you missed him over at the Factory. Decals for face and chest, Venkman hair. Harry Potter Here is Harry in case you missed him in the Secret Santa thread, Decals for face and chest, apoxie sculpt for sleeves, modified movie Sabertooth coat, and CEO Tony Stark hair. Lord Voldemort You can't have Harry without his arch nemesis! Voldemort has decals for his face and chest, and apoxie sculpt for his sleeves and skirt. And finally, one custom for me: Pip-Boy from Fallout 3 He was made using the decal over at the Factory from Cubee Craft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boyd Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Really nice Stan Lee! You captures his likeness perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I ama amazed that we haven't had an official release of that Spider-Man yet! It looks great as a Minimate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Of course, that Stan Lee and the Harry Potter guys are tops, but my favorite of that bunch is the 3 inch Hulk! He looks perfect, and is in scale! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groundhog7s Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Although I'm pretty partial to the Stan Lee (excelsior!), I love those 3 inch Minimates. The size variance is one of the best things the DC line had going for it. I'd much rather see a larger sized Minimate body than the use of duck feet.

blacksun1520 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 It's funny, if I had won the story contest, I had planned on asking for a Stan Lee mate as well, he is perfect. That 3 inch Hulk is amazing, every Marvel Minimate collector needs one in their collection, when do you open the manufacturing plant Luke ?

Pete Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Simply stuning Luke, every single one of them!! With no disrespect meant to the guys over at AA/DST... you could really show them a thing or two. Regarding commissions, are you always open to taking them on or is a once in a while thing?

Mirymate Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 You really need to make a second one of those Stans and try to find a way to send that to the Man himself. I think he'd get a kick out of it. How you'd do that I have no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 How you'd do that I have no idea. "Pact with Satan" is the only logical conclusion I've been able to come to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docholliday666 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Holy crap!!!!!!!!!! Great stuff Luke, but I hate to be a dick in your thread but, his name isn't pip-boy. It's Vault-Boy. Pip-boy is the wrist computer. But everything else is excellent! The hulk and sasquatch are sick. I did, however, notice that you didn't take a very good picture of Invisibility Cloak Harry. I mean, you put the regular Harry right in front of him!!! But seriously, how much would it cost to have a Vault Boy made for me?? Pm Me.........

She was able to hand delivery to him (I believe with her son). Very cool. As a side note, she's got some excellent My Little Pony customs on the site also.

luke314pi Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 Thanks everyone!! You really need to make a second one of those Stans and try to find a way to send that to the Man himself.

Nessex Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Fwoar - you wouldn't have to twist my arm too hard to take that Sasquach off your hands. Great work luke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsomedevil Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 That Hulk is incredible. The Unlimited Spidey's coloring is amazing. [/bad jokes- I'm not BHM!] And I don't dare show my kids that Harry Potter, they would have me on the hook for 2 customs! How much do commissions run, Luke? I'm sure it varies, but how about a ballpark figure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 Thanks! How much do commissions run, Luke? I'm sure it varies, but how about a ballpark figure? Usually a 2" figure is around $30 and a larger figure is around $35, but it could go higher if there is a lot of sculpting or accessories. I am booked for the next 5 months or so, but I can always add someone to my list for when I finish my current orders. PM me if you want more information.

karamazov80 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Since you have announced these rough prices here, I have to say, Luke, that getting one of your customs for those prices is the best deal in town. I know the market for Minimates isn't such where you could expect people to pay, say, $50-70 for one. However, I think that is what they would be worth based on your time, effort, and expertise. A single Masters of the Universe figure costs that same amount to get shipped to me from Mattycollector, and, of course, they aren't anywhere near as cool as one of your customs, not even taking into account the energy and time that you expend. I would be ordering these out the wazoo from you, but I don't want you getting too annoyed with my incessant requests. I suspect that you have already reached that point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
