Thanks.
I like your sculpts a lot, though Hellboy's anatomy looks quite strange. To big cloaths, to small shoulders and to thin legs. Maybe you wanted to acheive a cartoonish style, but for me it just doesn't look fine. All details, weapon etc. looks awesome! Just don't like the anatomy.

I also try to sculpt and use mainly FIMO Classic. May you please tell me something about Sculpey Firm? What's the difference beetwen this one and FIMO?

Hi, about the anatomy, yes I wanted to achieve the comix look, so maybe legs are still too big :D

And now Sculpey Firm, as the name explains it is firmer than fimo (it is more like chavant or roma plastelina clays), it holds the finest details. But FIMO is ok too, but i like Firm because it's firm :) I use FIMO when i need some soft detailing like hair etc. You can mix Sculpey and Fimo 50/50 so you will get best of them.

what does "not for commercial use (unofficial collector's item)" mean?
clever way to avoid copyrights?

You'd think that right, but without permission it is illegal. Iirc only if it's a parody you can make something similar.

No there is a deal with mr. Mignola, I wouldn´t sell it on ebay or in mass production or in any e-shop. So that´s why it is limited and that´s why there is this message on it :)

He actually gave his permission? Wow! He is notoriously hard with giving his permission to use his intellectual property from what I've read and heard so congratulations on that! :)

skrit: actually his wife (as the manager :) ) gives me "permission", and I promised, that I will make copies only for a few people and will never make bussines on it, so I keep the word :)

And answer for boht of you, there are no copies left :) sorry, maybe if someone will cancel his decision to have one, I will tell you.
