HERE - Black Heart Enterprises

For the first time, Black Heart will participate in Mask-Fest 2016 in Indianapolis, IN
September 9 -11. We are very excited to bring our life-sized resin busts and wallhanger busts to this festival of monsters, masks, models and mayhem.
Also, for the first time, Badger Air-brush Co. and Black Heart Models will bring our
airbrushing and model-finishing class to Mask-Fest. We are thrilled to host the
first such class at Mask-Fest.
The class will feature Black Heart’s 1:1 scale resin Nosferatu wall-hanger bust, sculpted by Jeff
Yagher, and will run from 10am to 4pm on Friday September 9th. The class will be headlined by two
of the top pro modelers in the business, Jeff Camp and Gordon Oberman, both of whom are staff
writers for Amazing Figure Modeler magazine and have taught several of our classes. Participation is
limited to 16 participants who will choose one of two options.
 Option A includes Black Heart’s
Nosferatu wall-hanger bust (retail value $300);
Badger’s brand new Xtreme Patriot 105
airbrush with its revolutionary high roller trigger
(retail value $160); Badger’s low-noise,
automatic shut-off compressor with regulator
and gauge (retail value $150); a set of vampappropriate Badger Minitaire paint (retail value
$30); and 6 hours of airbrushing and painting
instruction (priceless!). You get to keep all that
stuff (over $600 value!).
The cost for Option A is $375.
 Option B includes everything in Option A except the
compressor. You get to keep all that stuff (well over $500
value!). Badger will provide compressors for use during the
class by participants choosing Option B.
The cost for Option B is $325.
Grab your crucifix and your garlic necklace and sign up now to ensure your spot in the class.

New Stuff
Nosferatu We have finally gotten all orders for our Nosferatu busts
and wall-hangers shipped. It has been an ordeal, these last few
months. The Nosferatu 360° Series busts are in stock, the painted
bust and the unpainted bust. The unpainted busts come primered
and are ready to paint right out of the box.
The head and hand for the Nosferatu wall-hanger was also
supposed to come primered and ready to paint right out of the box
but the factory erred and painted them all. Frankly, the paint job is
pretty danged good but primering the head and hand is a snap and is
what most modelers would do with a naked casting. We’ve already
primered a few for our Kickstarter clients who preferred not to
primer the head and hand themselves. We used Badger’s Stynylrez
white primer airbrushed through the new Xtreme Patriot airbrush
with the high roller trigger.
Custom-primered Nosferatu wall-hanger head and hand
Unpainted Nosferatu 360 Series bust
For those modelers and GK artists who prefer our wall-hangers, this one is special. It comes with the head, hand, locket
and photo, and the wall-hanger body. The wall-hanger retails for $300 plus shipping; the unpainted 360 Series bust
retails for $325 plus shipping; and the painted bust retails for $650 plus shipping.
Angelique We also finally have Abner Marin’s Angelique in stock. This is the second in our line of 1:2 scale busts and
she retails for $190 plus $25 U.S. shipping.
