“THIS
THING IS A MONSTER”!!!!! ..Let’s
just say your local cable company could throw this thing behind the
wheel of their truck to keep it from
rolling down the hill. My second figure from RCI was “An
American
Classic” featuring -Playmate- Shae
Marks... arguably my most popular
image. This was an undertaking to say the least. RCI searched
all over the world to find the best 1959 Cadillac model they could design
my figure
from. Next step were the 360 degree computer scans and CAD
drawings.
Once the caddy was computer carved from cold cast porcelain... the figure
was
created, and the design of the base was put in place.
The attention to
detail of this piece is incredible. Not only is the paint and chrome
work out of this world, but you can actually read the year and month
of registration
on the license plate. I can’t read that on my own car! The challenge
we are currently working on is cutting down on the weight of the piece,
which the prototype weighs in at about 25 pounds, or about the size and
weight of the average human head.
I won’t try to explain to you how
I know that bit of information. Once the piece is finalized, we will post
the info on this site in the “NEWS” section.
