Description This was a fun little project....Some Ghostbusters fans were kind enough to request I redo a portrait for an upcoming Venkman statue by "Hollywood Collectibles Group". Thankfully I had some time to pull it off. I enjoyed working on it. You can see another shot here and read about it.

This is stunning right here!@.@
Mother Puss Bucket.
It's Miller Time!
Lets show this prehistoric bitch how we do things downtown.
This Mr. Stay Pufts okay.Hes a sailor in New York.We get this guy laid we dont have any trouble.
Whoa,whoa..nice shooting there,Tex! hahahaha
That's incredible though,he is difficult to paint and I imagine getting his hair line was a challenge as in Ghostbusters I noticed it was constantly in disarray!

Haha!! Hey man! Thanks for the laugh.

I'm glad you like the Bill! It was a fun project.

you're right, he is difficult....the hair was one of the toughest aspects, because you have so many options with unkempt hair...it's tricky to decide what you like best...or what will paint up best....

Thanks man!

TREV!
It's good to hear from you man.
I took a 6 month hiatus and basically just...collected action figures.hahahaha
I am the proud owner of your Tweeterhead Herman Munster and Elvira now- it really is Miller time hahaha ,and I am not kidding you everywhere I go comic shops,etc. I encounter a lot of your Sideshow work in collections that are on display Β and the owners make special note of your work."Trevor Grove nails it,Trevor Groves sculting is second to none" and they are right!

I wish someday we could see you sculpt a 1990 TMNT movie Raphael in Trenchcoat haha
Wouldn't that be great?

It's funny too because I notice in the original Ghostbusters ole' Bill has his hair matted down when he's dealing with Peck(this man has no dick).WELL THATS WHAT WE HEARD!
I guess Dr.Venkman had used conditioner on that day of shooting hahahaha

TrevorGrove In reply to ChrisCrowell [2015-10-23 06:42:57 +0000 UTC]

Right on! It's good to take time away from everything. Collected action figures? Now you're talking my language.

I'm honored you made a home for Herman and Elvira! I hope you enjoy them! And I'm very humbled that anyone thinks of me as 'second to none'....I wish I could say I felt the same. haha...But...then I'd be a terrible person...it's better to constantly be disappointed in ourselves...pushes us forward without us even knowing it...

Great idea about Raph....that would be cool! There's those unbelievable statues made from the terrible new movie, and nothing high end for the 1990 film. Turtles continue to be huge, though, it's certainly a possibility.

Wow,Trev!
I am so sorry to go awol and not reply to you brutha!
Happy new year to you!
How about that little film that came out at the end of the year?
What was it called?Star Wars The Awakened Force?Don't remember..hahahaha
I spent way way too much on Star Wars toys over Christmastime hahaha
From radio controlled BB-8 to Drew Struzan art on porcelain wall clock...to the Black Series run of action figures.LOOK OUT!
For as little as her role was in the film I took a great hunt to capture every Cap' Phasma figure available hahahaha
Currently repainting my black Series Poe Dameron so he does not appear drunk hahahahaha

TrevorGrove In reply to ChrisCrowell [2016-01-19 18:00:52 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I don't remember that movie....
Hehheh. I LOVED "Force awakens". Kind of pushed away any negativity towards it, because it was annoying to listen to/read. I've got no time for petty nerds anymore...I just focus on what I like, and I really like that film. I never go and see something 3 times (and I could easily go again).
Phasma joins the ranks of all the cool SW characters that do more in our imaginations than on screen.
Those Poe figures are hilarious....I don't know what went wrong with those, but they sure make him look a young Al Swearengen.
Glad you had fun with it all too! I was shocked at how it all made me feel. It's very nice to wash away the prequel era, which seemed to stick around longer than Palpatine's term as Chancellor (I may not like the prequels, but I sure know a lot about it all. haha)

Hey! I have no idea, but that does sound likely, if HCG goes to NYCC.

Hi Trevor, great likeness and sculpt! Would you ever consider doing a tutorial on sculpting hair?
I find this to be extremelyΒ frustrating and difficult, and I'm never that happy with my results.Β

TrevorGrove In reply to jesserubin [2015-09-18 03:55:16 +0000 UTC]

Hey! Thanks a lot!!
I never put enough thought into preparing things for tutorials. I'm just too lazy for it.

My friend Andy Bergholtz made a TERRIFIC hair tutorial...this will be of interest to you:

Best sculpt I have ever seen. I buy a lot of geek stuff, but this is the best I've ever come across. I wish you was doing the full statue of Venkman trevor, I'm not keen on the rest of the statue, I don't like the shine or way he's stood, too energetic for Venkman. But your sculpt is amazing, had to comment.

That's very nice of you to say, and thank you!
I don't disagree with you on the pose...I know what you mean. It's pretty rare that any collectible these days meets all of my hopes and expectations...even the ones I make in full!

Thanks again!

Your welcome, your sculpt looks awesome, it almost made me buy the statue. If it wasn't for that pesky pose they have put him in, I would have bought it straight away. If hot toys ever make a GB figure, please make the head sculpt lol.
