I like them. They are not perfect but I think it's not the problem of the sculpt but of the paintjob. I especially like the Sookie bust, I think there's a big likeness with Anna Paquin. Eric is in second, and finally Bill that has the worst paintjob of the three.

Picked up Bill today from one place because the cheaper place couldn't get him in but I put Sookie and Eric on order from them. I saw them all in person, They look really good.

That's cool! I actually ordered Bill and Sookie from Panix's as I had a discount coupon which was about to expire so definitely looking forward getting those two.
Can you post some pictures?

He looks much better than I expected. Thanks for the pictures! Much appreciated! ;D Will be sure to post some of my pictures once Sookie and Bill arrive.

^Can't wait. My hopes for the next few waves...
Series 2: Jessica Hamby> Alcide Herveaux> Sam Merlotte
Series 3: Jason Stackhouse> Tara Thornton> Pamela
Series 4: New Sookie> Tommy Mickens> Hoyt Fortenberry
But I'm sure that Lafayette would also get made and that we would see a new Bill and Eric before we ever see Tommy or Hoyt...
I would so love figures so then they can get more out and they will be a hell of a lot cheaper.

Here are some close-ups of the True Blood heads. I'm working on some custom versions of these busts at the moment.

Thanks for the close ups, Sasha. They do seem to have very thick eyebrows - wonder why.
In any case, looking forward your customs, as always. ;D

They actually dont look to bad, I may try to pick them up when there price goes down a little. I wish that they would make a figure line as I would be willing to spend more money on figures, then bust. Sasha do you plan on making custom figures from True Blood or just busts?

I'm just doing custom versions of the busts at the moment.
If someone asks me to make a True Blood figure, then I'll look around for appropriate parts for that character. If I think I can do it successfully, and get a reasonable likeness, I'll take on the commission.

They look pretty good really.
The lips looks kinda crappy. They need to put that darker coloured line across the middle of the lips. Not enough companies do that & the mouth area ends up looking far less realistic. It's not a huge paint decal to add either.

The Sookie bust actually looks better in person. I don't think the sculpt is off, I think the main problem with the busts is the paint job. If you don't believe me then go look at the customs Sasha made out of the busts.

I was willing for these busts to look really good, however i'm not the loving the finished article they gave us . Maybe if these were figures i'd consider buying them, but busts i'm not too keen on unless they are exceptional.
