One of my customers, a big Vincent Price fan, asked if I could do him a Price, Frederick Loren from House on Haunted Hill. This film was 13 years before Theatre of Blood but I said I would have a go at modifying an Edward Lionheart head if he was cool with it. So he agreed and this is the result. This is the black and white version. I cut down and flattened his sideburns, cut down and smoothed out his mustache and smoothed out his hair. I also filled in sanded out a few aging lines. I am very happy with the way it came out and thinks it looks very different to old Mr. Lionheart. This is just a one off (unless anybody wants one lol). Check back tomorrow for the colour version :)

Awesome work.  I'ld probaly want him to be holding one of those "Party favors"; the handgun in a coffin shaped box.

Is there only one, or could you make more if needed? Also, any word on the Son of Frankenstein clothes for Ygor?

I can always make more if needed Mord. Only with this as a special order there is no window box. On the clothes front I am very much busy at the moment so it will be a while before I get to them. Time is my enemy lol

I think you should seriously consider this as a future mass release (as "mass" as your normal releases get, anyway). The "Party Favors" wouldn't be too hard to do, I should think. And people would love to see this one in a box. I know your plate's very full, Martin, so this might be something you'd want to pencil in for early 2014. :laugh:

I will certainly thing about it. What stops me doing at the moment is its a mod of a current sculpt and I like to use brand new sculpts for each piece, although it does look totally different.

I am going to poll my mailing list customers if they want me to produce this. Here is the colour version

It really is different enough that I don't think anyone would feel cheated by the reworked Edward Lionheart head.

As I say Dan, I will poll my customers and if they want to see it I will do it. It has come out well. And it will come with the Party Favours too I think

Haunted hearse

I really like the figure in B&W.  It really is a masterful reworking of the figure.

Thanks HH. I have polled a few of my best customers and they would like it released so a good chance it will make it :)
