I like the eyes on the creep better. Much more sinister looking. Also like the cleaner look personally. Never cared much for the flesh tones even though they are more accurate. Can’t really go wrong with either of these copies though. They both look amazing!
Yeah I’ve commented on this before. Just to reiterate, I have both of these and love them both. That being said. I still think after the 2 years I’ve had them both, that the Castle 75K SE is a bit better. This is always of course, subjective.
Stock 75Ks straight from Nikos just don’t do it from me. JC 75Ks are on a whole other level. I adore N.O. Creeps. I currently own two; a 2012 and a 2019. Love 'em both.
You hit the nail right on the head brother. No offense to Nikos, the sculps are great …but I don’t like his finishing and eye cuts at all…the “stock 75ks” as you said don’t do it …when you see or are fortunate enough to have a James finished 75k whether it’s H1 or H2 there’s no going back after that . Seriously . You can’t own a JC NAG 75K then go back to a 75K finished by Nikos…I mean u can but it’s not the same or on the same level…
Creep stock eyecuts always look too big and round to me. Nikos’ eyecuts have not always been perfect, but they are rarely too large so they can be adjusted. Every so often I see a Creep worn or stuffed properly with good eyecuts that looks really good, but almost every NAG 75k Castle I see look great, and in the hands of someone like Jimmy Falco or James Carter the 75k is perfection to me.
I’ve owned both. A 2011 Creep (which I wish I still had) and a 75K Castle SE and I do prefer the Castle I believe. It may be a bit of an unfair comparison since the Castle was re-hauled by Freddy Loper, but there is something about the sculpt that I like just a fraction more.
