Mint 75 Kirk - puckface - 03-17-2009
After seeing a recent discovery of an original 1975 Kirk on the MM.NET boards, I immediately asked Nik to go to work on one of these bad boys. I'm sure I got on his last nerve with every detail I requested, but he was able to re-create it perfectly with flying colors. I asked him to do the sideburns longer than most Kirks are, (more like the Kirk that was just discovered). I also asked to make the overall base very "fleshy". I then requested that he do slight pink shading around the eyes, lips, ears, etc. Lastly, I asked for the hair to be as soft and accurate as the original 75 Kirks were, and boy did he come through. I can't say enough about this mask. I think it was Larry who said something along the lines of, "I'd much rather have a Kirk replica than an original. That way I can hold it and not have to worry about ruining it.". VERY true! I don't think this mask will ever leave my collection, nor will it be converted. Here are a few pics I snapped just for now....<a href=\"http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/?action=view¤t=1-10.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/th_1-10.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/?action=view¤t=2-8.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/th_2-8.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/?action=view¤t=3-10.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/th_3-10.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/?action=view¤t=4-6.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/th_4-6.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a><a href=\"http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/?action=view¤t=5-7.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v196/puckface/th_5-7.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /></a>

Nice Score Man!But does this mean Nik is still making Mint75's? I've seen many of the 10 kirk copys converted I thought they were all gone and sold. or was this just a special request?

That's certainly the best Kirk I've seen since... well... really at all!Nice score! Nik sure did a nice job paying attention to detail. Glad to see you aren't converting it.
