    Could you illustrate this with a simple diagram or drawing. I'm just trying to figure out if I can customize the head pieces or the figure itself to fix that. Thanks.

    Damn my hand is tired from hitting refresh!

    Just make sure the transparent Lucky Draw gun goes to me! ;)  (You might want to add that to your list!)

    Just kidding, hopefully I get my PM soon! I need something to make this Skyfall cool and displayable.

    I've sent PM's to the first 75 members. For those that have responded back, I'll send payment details within the hour.

    The right helmet is to illustrate how it looks when attached to the neck. The left image shows the gap, if you were to cut the front extension off.




    Sorry dude, but there was 100 people before you in the waiting list. You'll probably have to wait for the second batch, which won't be ready until mid July.

    Pretty much. Its the reason I just found out now, as it was hidden, while testing something out. Strangely, even though the bottom is at an angle, the top seem between the top parts is flush, all the way to the sides, until they disappear behind the "ears".

    Ok gang, I've moved the "pmed" and "put me down for X" posts to Venksta's "Commissioner Listing and Feedback" thread. This forum is for customs feedback only. If you want to order one of these sets or anything else from Venksta, post in the CL&F thread. Any such posts in this thread will simply be deleted. If you're concerned with being on a list, then you'll want to make a point to post in the other thread. :)

    All posts related to ordering, and finding order updates, will now be in this thread:

    http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/commi...9169-renderform-accessories-upgrade-kits.html


    Thats an idea. But the colors are off, so their would have to be painting involved to finished the look. I want my kits to be ready to go, as soon as you attach them to the base figure. But if we find another suitable figure for Impactor, it could be a cool project. :)

    Separating all of the posts of people interested from all of your threads into one single thread is going to cause confusion...

    I saw a lot of posts saying "I'm interested in this set" but without mention of which thread/set it's for...

    You can blame me for that. I asked Superquad7 to separate the posts, as people kept bumping this thread for orders. It wasn't fair for the other threads here.

    Project update. I finished casting the final parts for the first batch. I start the new molds tomorrow. Also will begin clean up of the parts to ship.

    I was more worried for you, actually... In that other thread, I think my first Skyfall post is reply 107 or something, but it was vague, since I was interested in Blaster before that...

    The resin I'm using isn't fragile. I've dropped some of the casted parts on the cement floor of my garage. They didn't break, or have any major damage/scratches. So its seems like they'll be fine, as long as you don't attempt to destroy them.

    Update on the status of the kits.

    I definitely will not be shipping tomorrow or early next week. I really under estimated how long it would take to clean the parts up. Its taking about 5-10 minutes to prep a full set at the moment. So I probably will be shipping the kits out next weekend, or July 5th. For anyone that has paid, and is not happy about this, I will gladly refund you, and can put you on the waiting list for the next batch. For everyone else, I hope you are ok with this delay.
