A Couple of Things

Darkman Plush:

Made in two days: 1 day for fucking around on how to make the thing, 1 day for figuring out how to put it all together.

Tusken Raider: This. Has been. A bitch.

It's mostly done from memory, until I ran across a photo showing that I got everything wrong, and then done based off a photo. I should be able to paint it pretty soon and then wrap the thing up within a week.

The Monster's Mate

It lives: the Bride of Frankenstein!

It was made pretty much exactly like the Mumm-Ra figure earlier. The only things worth noting are that the shoulders are padded with fleece, the eyes on this figure are covered with a super glue that not only works as a sealant but gives it a sheen that brings life into thing, the body is semi-anatomically correct, body includes stitching and is covered in bandages, fingers on the extended hand: all have broken off and attached again but the thumb, the base had to be made twice, figure is painted black and white in acrylics, the hair is the same as my "Billy" puppet and Cardboard-Leonidas Helmet but the temples are from cotton balls. It was also a bitch putting it all together.

This'll be on sale soon as I'm thinking of starting an Etsy account with this on the listing but, I feel just having this for sale doesn't feel right. So, I'm gonna make two more things, at least, and then this will be sold along with the other two (I'm thinking Tusken Raider and Invisible Man (maybe The Mummy) stuffed toy). So, stay tuned for that shit.

The Monster's Mate WIP

A little something I've been working on over the past week. Normally, when I'm properly motivated, I can knock these out pretty fast. However, I rarely attempt to sculpt the feminine form and because of that, this came out slower than normal. Not much, but I'm in another bit of a money pickle. Here's hoping that this gets finished and bought within another week before the gangs banks come calling again.

Also, I found out not too long ago (during the time of the Obi-Saber build) that my Mask-In-A-Box commission piece was put up in the local museum as part of an exhibit for local hackerspaces. It's not increased the interest in the work that I do but that's something to be proud of anyway, I figured. Many thanks go to Dave and the other folks who were duped into buying the thing and then putting it up on display.

Personal Art Thing 2

Second verse, slightly different from the first.
