You mean the one that kind of looked like a short trench coat over a woman's business suit? I have that mold, and I think I'll be listing it as Fem torso 24. There are also several others that I need to make molds for, but I'll get them all done very soon. Hopefully.

It'll be easier to get things done when this is my only job so over the next several months you can expect allot of new things coming down the pipeline.

Yes I do have that sculpt, but not a mold for it (yet). I'll be trying to get everything in soon. If not before I reopen then within the first couple of months after this becomes my full time job.

AWESOME. I bought one off of him but it showed up with a broken pony tail. He was supposed to send me another one, but got out of the bidness before he sent it.

Can't wait to see it in the store.

I tried to reglue the one I have a few times, but it wouldn't stay. And then I lost the broken piece.

Remind me on your next order, and I'll take care of replacing it for you.

I wonder if you might be able to sculpt a POTA style collar?

POTA style collar? I looked up POTA, and all I found was Prevention of Terrorism Act, and I'm pretty sure that isn't what you meant:lmao:

POTA=(P)lanet (O)f (T)he (A)pes. The Charlton Heston and Roddy McDowall movie from 1968 is what I was referring to. I want to know if you would be able to cast a collar in the style worn in that movie by the enslaved humans. :headinsand:

It looks about like the arm, and leg straps I have, so yeah that should be no problem.

Last night at work my wife, and I finally found out that our last night at work will be right before we go on vacation. This Friday! So when we get back from vacation it'll be time for me to really start ramping up my business, and getting it going the way that I know it can.

While I'm closed I'll be asking that you guys give me input as to different aspects of what I'm offering. The way I'm doing this is through polls on my forum I started a couple of years ago, and never really did much with. Now you will need to register in order to vote, but I just don't want to clutter all of the other sites I go on with my questions. Also it helps to keep all of the polling in one place for a more easily determined result.

First question for masked heads do you guys prefer flesh color, or mask color for the casts? http://vortiouscustoms.forumotion.com/t50-poll-1-masked-heads-cast-in-flesh-or-cast-in-mask-color

Might want to fix the black text on a dark grey background.

But the site is looking great.

Thanks, and I'm looking into that, but for some reason I can't seem to figure out why the text is black. I don't have any text set to be black. Weird.

Found it. It's the category header background color that controls that. Again weird, you'd think that it would be in the text color options portion.

I have a question. :)

On the description for your "Cosmic Knight" figure kit, you state it comes with head, torso, hands, gun and arms. But does it come with legs?

If not, what do people use for the legs on this particular figure?

It is meant as a replacement for the upper body of the MKII IM figure to make ROM. I was just going to include the head, gun, hands, and torso, but when trying to remove the arms from the MKII I found it basically impossible to do w/o either destroying them, or almost destroying them. So I copied the arms to go along with the rest of the kit.

All orders up through WE 6-28-14 are packed in the baggies, and have been handed off to my shipping clerk. I'll make sure he gets them out this afternoon, so that when we go on vacation tomorrow all of your orders will be on their way.

When I get back from vacation I'll reopen the store, and start working on new molds. As of this morning I'm entirely self employed, and I gotta admit it's kind of an odd feeling.

While filling the orders I've been playing around with a certain new set of molds that I think you guys will be thoroughly enjoying.



I'll be putting this bad boy up on ebay as one of my first custom figure auctions


Another custom I'm working on thanks to a customer

Now while I'm on vacation I will be taking a laptop so that I can go to the wifi area of the camp grounds, and check in. If you guys need to contact me you can contact me on facebook, or at rodimusvts@verizon.net

Thanks bud, I'm not sure which I'm looking forward to more going on vacation to Tennessee in the morning, or getting back in 2 weeks so that I can get started. Anyway I packed me a "Rainy Day" box just in case:

If I thought I could get away w/ packing my resins, and a pressure pot too, I would. My wife would never allow it since this IS supposed to be vacation.

Well things aren't going quite as well out here on vacation as we thought they would, so we'll be heading back a little earlier than planned. However even though I'll be home a little sooner, I'm still not going to reopen until the 3rd of August to allow me time to get some more new items ready for the store. Looking forward to getting back to working for you guys.

Got home last night around 8:30, so we've got to go around, and do the errands that were caused by going on vacation (picking up the mail, going grocery shopping for fresh food, etc). So I'll be getting back to making new molds probably this afternoon, and while they're curing I'll be prepping more items in mold forms, and I'll post the new items that I already made molds for before we left in the store.

I'll be posting pics of the whole set of new items this evening. I'm hoping for at least 45-50 new items to be added to the store (this includes the 26 I added last night)

You thought that was good Eddie wait til you see what's coming into the store tomorrow. I'm taking pics of a few new items right now. When I get up in the morning I'll take the 48 new head molds out, and put them through for their first runs. Yes that's right I said FORTY EIGHT NEW HEADS! Once they're done I'll put them into the store, and reopen.

Of course what would a grand re-opening be w/o a special offer? As always all orders of $50 or more will get an extra item (or one for every $50 over $50 ie @ $100 you get 2, $150 you get 3 etc), usually a head in a in little treasure chest, but each week in August I'll be putting a gold item in one of the chests, and mixing it in with the other chests that I have set up for that week (around about 15 chests for each week will be set, but I'll add more if need be) the lucky customers who find one of these chests will get $20 store credit just like I did back in April w/ the Easter eggs. Also all orders of $30 or more will get 1 free head of their choice. Also let's not forget about the Red Laser VS Blue Laser challenge on Joe Customs, and the special I'm running along w/ that: All orders of $30 or more gets a free $10 or less tool, or weapon of your choice when you mention the R VS B Laser challenge in your notes.
