Hello, I have been coming here for a long while. I'm sorry I haven't made any posts until now. I just thought I didn't have anything important to say until now. I recently hand-sculpted a few Tim head masks and though I just put some up on Ebay, I thought I would show you guys too and if one of you guys are interested in one, I will give it to you for $50. Which is the base price I am offering on Ebay. So you guys will get it cheaper. So, here are the pics of them. They are 1/6 in size (about the size of the larger action figure heads) they as I said, are hand-sculpted and are also copyrighted as a limited edition. So you guys are getting the first crack at them. I only have so many so... get em while you can. Note; they dont all look exactly alike. Such as hair strokes. But the variations are very slight. Please let me know your thoughts and thanks for creating this place. I always enjoy looking around at your pics and comments. I promise I will post now.  Have a great day.   |

Don't feel slighted, RaylansAmber, the board isn't very active now that Tim spends his time going to concerts instead of filming Justified. You are most certainly welcome and encouraged to engage here at the forum. I bought a Tim-as-Raylan head (with hat) from a talend guy (Callahan Toys) on ETSY, but it took forever and he never followed up on helping get some custom clothes for the body. Also it is a little bit caricture - ish, unlike your sculpt. It is painted nicely, though. There is a whole action figure community out there. I got a Dexter complete figure somewhere else that looks exactly like Micheal C. Hall. I could never find a body just right for the Raylan action figure. All the bodies are too short and bulky. The closest one is the body they used for the Dexter doll, the taller body is more like Dwayne Johnson- way too freakishly muscled. So yes; I have searched the internet for action figure heads and bodies and clothes; and there is a dis-articulated Raylan head in my dresser drawer. So rest assured you are among friends here. Callahan Toys where I got my complete head is gone, or at least I can't find it, but he has some stuff on facebook. link He specialised in The Walking Dead heads and they were much better than the Raylan head, which I did custom request, so you know he just had a different genre he perferred. Check out the dioramashop and retroclassiccustoms and Mikesworkbench on etsy for some other action figure coolness. I have a couple of questions about your sculpt. Why just the mask, and not the whole head? And did you reference the picture from the museum of Art photo shoot? Here, a talented gamer/alt reality player made ditital Tim with it.  Your sculpt is lovely. it looks almost 3-D printed because it is so smooth. What medium did you use? Also, where you ever over on deviantart before your own website? You work is awesome. Love the wearwolf. He looks like the classic An American Wearwold in London transformation. Forgive my spelling and or typing. spell check is not working today for me. time to re boot. |

I guess I kinda hoped for a "welcome" to the boards. Hi...and welcome! I haven't been online as much as usual... I think your likenesses are cool. Just looked at your site, your portraits of TO are amazing. I thought your avatar was the original photo! I don't understand how it works, the tablet, but good job! I am not a person with $$ to spend on them, but I admire your talent. You are in the right place to find some real TO fans...and possible customers. Give it a little time, keep posting when you feel the urge...I wish there were some new photos or new news about TO's upcoming jobs, that gets us all checking the site more often. I think he is in Florida for Chris Everts' charity tennis tournament next week, I am hoping for some good photos!  |

Hi. Thank you for replying. I feel better now Motercitymade,I don't know about the museum of art photo shoot, but I would love to check it out. I modeled him out of sketches Ive done of him. mostly from screen captures. I did the masks because they were easier. I did the main sculpture of his entire head for a sculpture I'm doing of him. I will post it below. I'm still working on him. I am going to be doing Boyd too, pointing his gun at Raylan and at some point, have them scanned and 3D printed, having those for sale. I took a mold of that head and made a push mold for these. Mare27, thank you for your sweet comments. Thank you both for your kindness.   Attachments:

The forum has been almost silent....trust us....when Justified was on we filled this with opinions and reviews. And many of us miss the weekly thrill of Raylan and Boyd, Raylan and Winona, the season big bad, and mostly the wonderful acting, writing....some of those lines will never be forgotten.

Missing Justified and TO real bad....and all of the interplay on this site too! Can't wait for the next TO news! Hope you are all well and healthy!  |

Re: To going to concerts-
I found a tweet about him being at the Troubadour few weeks ago- something like "Timothy Olyphant is at every concert I go to"; and there is a pic of him walking into someplace else in LA recently, some small concert venue. Good thing he wasn't in Paris.
Remember brother is an executive in the music industry so Tim has the downlow on up and comming bands. I see if I can find it if I have any time at all.

Forgot about the big brother thing...makes sense him being seen concert going...with time on his hands...too much time!!!! And as we approach 2016 one can't help but miss the old lead up to a new season. Six was so good the missing becomes stronger. In case I forget...
Happy turkey day to one and all.
