The ugly desperado

Sculpted by 3D Fortress

“The Ugly” is a nickname for Tuco Benedicto Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez, played by Eli Wallach. He is a Mexican bandit and criminal who teams up with two other men – “The Good” (played by Clint Eastwood) and “The Bad” (played by Lee Van Cleef) – to find a cache of gold buried in a cemetery. Tuco is the most comedic and flamboyant of the three main characters, known for his wild and unpredictable behavior.

Some interesting facts about Tuco include:

• The character of Tuco was originally supposed to be played by Gian Maria Volontè, who had played the villain in the previous film in the series, “For a Few Dollars More.” However, Volontè turned down the role and Eli Wallach was cast instead.
• Wallach reportedly did not get along with director Sergio Leone during filming. At one point, he even tried to quit the movie, but was convinced to stay by Clint Eastwood.
• Tuco’s famous line “When you have to shoot, shoot, don’t talk” was ad-libbed by Wallach on the spot during filming.
• Wallach received critical acclaim for his performance as Tuco, and the character has become one of the most iconic in Western movie history. He was nominated for a Golden Globe award for his performance.

Due to the inherit nature of 3D printing the miniatures might contain imperfections and could require additional cleanup where the support have been; use sand paper or green putty for example. Print layers will sometimes be visable.

3D resin is brittle, even if we use a mixture than makes it more flexible. However it cannot be compared with the normal plastic that is used for example Warhammer, Marx or Conte miniatures. Handle the 3D prints with care, a fall can break them. Glue info here.
