Madame Vee & Meaty

| August 23rd, 2009

Okay yeah sometimes it’s hard not to describe things with just Oh my GOD OH MY GODDDDDDD AAAAAHHHHHHH, but seriously JESUS CRISP this figure is one amazing piece of work. It’s by Graphic Airlines (produced and manufactured by G999). I can’t afford it (yet, anyway. It costs about $130 I think.), but I’m gonna find a way. Graphic Airlines has always been one of my favorite illustrating teams, and they’re always finding new ways to impress folks with super-weird and super-cool characters. Check plus plus!!

The back of the head of a familiar face.

New Resin Toy WiP

| August 19th, 2009

Since this project is probably a decent way off from being finished, I thought I would post this for extra motivation to keep working on it. This is my first peg-jointed resin figure I’m working on. He probably looks a bit similar to Danny and Brute Toy in pictures, but there is more detail in the sculpting and the proportions are different. The plan is to have removable/interchangeable head and arms. His body is almost finished as well. He will be 9″ tall. No name until the first one is painted. Wish me luck, lots of new techniques to experiment with on this one.

He came and went. This is the version of Danny offered to everyone who’s signed up for my newsletter. Each box is hand drawn. Sales ended at midnight tonight. Thank you so very much to everyone who was able to grab one! They will be shipping over the next few weeks!
