Chief Joseph Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 ...as opposed to the crappy, blobby figures that car modelers are usually forced to use. http://northstarmodels.com/2014/05/new-pin-up-girls-124-118-and-143-scale/ (sorry for the big pic but this sculpt deserves it) Now the bad news: it'll probably be at least $30, and is only available from a Russian company.
vypurr59 Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 Looks like she is smuggling jellybeans under that top!!!!
Ramfins59 Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 Yep, that is a great casting. Maybe some day one of our resin casters will make something of this quality.
W-409 Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 That's definitely a good looking Figure (And I actually meant the casting ). Too bad the price is that high, probably that will make me skip this one. If they're in Russia, that's not a problem as Finland is right next to it. Though buying that one would save a lot of time preparing the worse figures for paint...
slusher Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 Yep, that is a great casting. Maybe some day one of our resin casters will make something of this quality. That would be nice..
Ace-Garageguy Posted May 6, 2014 Posted May 6, 2014 Beautifully sculpted by someone with much talent and skill.
Chief Joseph Posted May 7, 2014 Author Posted May 7, 2014 This is another example of why 3D modeling and printing is so great for the hobby. This sculpt is available in 1/18, 1/24, and 1/43 and all it took was one digital sculpt to create the different sizes. This sculpt was probably created in ZBrush, and it takes both skill with the software and an understanding of human anatomy to pull it all together. I wish I had taken more art classes in college!!
Danno Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 I wish I had taken more art classes in college!! I wish I had known her in college!!
fractalign Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 That is awesome ! I never thought I would see the day where someone would create a contemporary female figure with this much detail. I definitely want one !
DrGlueblob Posted May 7, 2014 Posted May 7, 2014 Paging Jimmy Flintstone, please pick up the green phone... I'd pay thirty bucks for it. -Long as the material it's made of takes paint well.
Sixx Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 WOW! You ain't kidding about an awesome sculpt!!!! My stoopid little sculpts of zombies suck compared with that!
Matt Bacon Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 I'm not sure I'd let anyone, even someone who's clearly so svelte, sit on the light cover or bonnet of my Gallardo -- it could get very expensive... ;-P bestest, M.
Deano Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 That is a really well done figure but do you know what I'd really like to see? A Rock Band! I need some musicians in the worst way and I can't sculpt bricks!
Daddyfink Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Hopefully they will start making more figures in 1/24th and 1/25th
disabled modeler Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Great casting....shame about the price I can use all the scale figures i can get for my two large 1/25th dioramas...anyone having any to spare please PM me.
BirdWatcher Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 wonder if using hydospan, i could make a 1/1 of her.
Harry P. Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 That's very impressive work, especially given the scale.
Casey Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Joseph, has that figure been primed and prepped, or is the grey color we're seeing the printing media itself?
Chief Joseph Posted May 10, 2014 Author Posted May 10, 2014 Casey, it's not readily apparent from the photos on the website if this is the printed master or a copy or what, but there are printers out there that will easily produce a piece with this quality straight from the machine. I'd really like to see the 1/43 version of this figure.

I'd really like to see the 1/43 version of this figure im guessing one of those 100k Z corp machines.
