THE CLUBHOUSE

Hey all,

I couldn’t do WF two weeks ago for lack of funds but I did SDCC this past weekend (as it’s an almost all-expense paid trip by the company I work for).
It’s taking me a while to crop and resize the photos for uploading but here is a first batch. I hope to have the second one ready by week’s end. I’m new to “flickr” so please bear with me while I try to figure it out.

Any question about any of the stuff pictured here, ask and I’ll try my best to answer.

Even tough the comic-con has become a little too “Hollywood”, it’s still a fun place to hang-out with like-minded people.

I wasn’t expecting to see any, but I saw a few kits: A nice Harley Quin holding a gun, standing on a deck of cards at a booth selling various collectables, 2 Horizon T2 kits (T-1000 and Arnold) and a Screamin’ Mars Attack "Screaming in the streets" at a booth that sold toys.

I typically don’t do pre-paints but I’m a fan of Geof Darrow and Frank Miller so I bought a Dark Horse pre-paint Dixon from “Hard Boiled” sculpted by Ken Melton and produced by Gentle Giant.

Merci.

Olivier

Moved this here, Thanks for posting the pics.

Tom

Great pix man, thank you for sharing them.

Nice pics, the pic you ID as Takeya is actually sculpted by a sculptor named Skink. And this piece was sculpted and painted by Jeff Camp;

SWEET! Thanks for posting the pix. I've GOT to make it to Comicon one of these days!

Hey guys,

You're all very welcome.

Tom: Thank you for moving this thread. I, again, failed to realize there was a special forum for these types of shows.

John: That piece by Jeff Camp is so sweet.

Is the pic I misidentified the one with the two "lobster-men" fighting? Or the other one with the "spider" like creature? The lobster-men had a sign with his name as the sculptor next to it so I presumed that the other one was also his. Thank you for the correction. I'm happy for you that you got to meet "Master Takeya". I had work to do Friday morning and didn't hit the convention center until mid-afternoon so I missed the Bandai booth. I checked it out on Saturday but he was gone.

I'll try to post more pictures soon. In addition to more statues, I'll have people in costumes and a few scantily clad women. Though I have to say... The Con is definitely turning into a PG affair as far as costumes go.

Merci

Olivier
