Title: Welcome! Whatcha got?
Post by: The Drunken Severed Head on December 01, 2007, 01:04:47 AM
Hello new recruits! Now that we have the ability to post images within a post, let's see what your proudest possession is!

Here is a recently acquired Terry Cruikshank Phantom that was given to me by a dear friend. I am very happy with it!

Very nice, I've liked those for a long time.  Are they cast resin or latex heads & hands?

Impressive Max. Forgive my ignorance, but who is Terry Cruikshank, and what other figures does he make? And how much $$ ? Any web site?

Thanks for the compliments. He's made of cast resin or some other hard substance over a doll body. He's the only Cruikshank I have now, but I may pick up a Frankie.

As I was given the doll, I don't what he costs, but I understand a custom Cruikshank ain't cheap.

I'm thankful to have my Erik! (Oops, should I have said that in "What I'm thankful for" thread?)

I dunno WHAT I've got, but it's one of my prized figures.  Got it from the big sale of things from the old Ackermansion.  It's 20" tall and has a wire armature & "stuffed" body.  Head, arms, and feet are a hard sculpted material.

Very nice, Dan.  That Teves sculpt is, for my money, the best Karloff Frankenstein out there.  The 1:1 scale with it up top is simply awesome!   Love the Phantom all dressed up, too...

Tom, that's a great drawing and so cool you are in the middle of it.  Have you turned it into a T-Shirt for yourself yet?

Man, is that great art.

"Tom , that is BREA TAKING!"

Does that have anything to do with tar pits?  ;)

I have the Teves 3/4 head and it is one sweet prize to have around!

OK, Dan, the Teves Frankie is something else -- but I'm fainting over the Rolf Armstrong Karloff Portrait...!

Tom,
That is one of my favorite Perez works that you have shown.  I saved it sometime back and incorporated it into my Halloween screen saver.  (Hope you don't mind!)
