The REVENANT in…CHILLING COLOR!!

Wow.
It so happens that my best friend since middle-school, Doug McCord (kagandyne@yahoo.com), is one of the most talented figure painters I’ve seen. When he saw the Revenant kit, he took it home and painted obsessively for 3 days….and this is the result. Take a look!

Isn’t that just AWESOME? I honestly didn’t have a real concept of what Rev would look like in color until I saw Doug’s work. He told me what a great job sculptor Eric Diaz did on the textures of the piece…they really have to be seen to be believed.

And just take a look at the box we’re got going for the piece! It really does the kit justice.

If you’re interested in a kit of your very own, they’re $65…just email me at daveflora1968@yahoo.com or Eric at eric@goldmane.net !

Official Relase!

“The Revenant” is a resin kit sculpted by Eric Nocella Diaz and produced by Goldmane Entertainment (http://www.goldmane.net). The sculpt is based off of a ghostly occult detective created by artist Dave Flora and featured in the noir webcomic “Tales of the Revenant”, currently hosted on DrunkDuck
(http://www.drunkduck.com/Tales_of_the_Revenant/). This beautiful, 3-piece kit includes great box art and a certificate of authenticity signed by both Eric and David. It is priced at $65, and can be primed and painted or, since the webcomic is in a moody black and white, it can be enjoyed right out of the box!
If you are interested in purchasing one of these kits, feel free to email either Eric or David at eric@goldmane.net or daveflora1968@yahoo.com.

Revenant in Resin!

More news on the Revenant statue! Eric Diaz has gotten the inital casts from the master mold, and they are spectacular in the amount of detail. Just take a look!

You can see that the bust comes in three pieces, the body and the two guns, and according to Eric the casting is so clean that it’s really ready to go right out of the box. We’re going to be offering the busts to the public for $65 dollars a piece, and we’ll have them in hand by the end of the month. We’re only doing 10 for our first run, and each will have a certificate of authenticity signed by Eric and myself. If you’re interested in buying one, just send me an email!

We’re also thrilled that the bust could be featured in the latest issue of “Amazing Figure Modeler Magazine“…which is a well produced mag that I think anyone would enjoy because it’s just filled with amazing sculpts.

Also, I’m getting close to wrapping up the current Revenant story “Sea of the Dead!” and it’s getting pretty intense! When this story is over, I’ll probably take a few weeks off as I continue to develop the next story (tenatively called “The Phantom Engine”) which may involve the launch of a new website.

Stay tuned!
