I'm glad he doesn't want the real one, because I'd have to kick his ass. The real one is mine. Someone has it somewhere. Maybe Lionel himself. And I want it. Lionel, if you're reading this, how much do you want for it? Or maybe, since you're loaded and I'm not, you'll just give it to me? Think about it and call me.
best of craigslist > chicago >Ceramic bald Lionel Richie bust wanted
Date: 2010-02-01, 9:40AM CSTI am looking for a replica of the bust made in the Lionel Richie "Hello" video.
However I'd like it to be bald as I intend to recreate that lovable afromullet with some sort of cream cheese dip at parties. Not that I have many parties, but if I had this, I might start.
I'd like it to be maybe about a foot tall.
It really has to look like that bust (which oddly enough doesn't look like Lionel Richie at all) or it won't be worth it. Hopefully it can be the same orangish-brown matte finish that is in the video but I understand making it safe for a cheesy-afro might lead to some compromises.
Please email me with a bid including a breakdown the cost of supplies and labor. I can also exchange for computer repair (mac/pc, virus/malware repair, etc) or maybe a 12" G4 iBook,
Thank you to Curtis for informing me that terracotta would not be a good choice for a food-safe sculpture.
Take care.
