Designer Con Online

This year due to the ongoing pandemic Designer Con is going online in a state of the art Virtual event at PopShop Live.

I will be streaming direct from my studio in the UK and joining several hundred other Dcon vendors in this epic live convention event.

Download the Popshop Live App for your iOS device or use a desktop or mobile browser to set up a Popshop account so you can join the fun.

You will also need to buy a ticket for the weekend from Designercon Live. To allow you secure access to the whole event within the DCon virtual area.

I will be selling Mechtorian toys and original works as well as chatting and generally hanging out for the duration of the event. Though due to time zone differences I will be streaming through the night in the UK. So may not make it right through to the end of each day.

I will also have a new Mechtorian painting to unveil. Which will be available to purchase.

I am also planning on selling some of my personal toy and art collection.

Follow my Popshop “store” : Doktor A to keep up to date with when I am live.

Show Hours :
Friday November 13th : 5pm – 9pm PST. (1am – 5am GMT)
Saturday November 14th: 9am – 6pm PST. (5pm – 2am GMT)
Sunday November 15th: 10am – 5pm PST. (6pm – 1am GMT)

The Airship Factory Series

The Airship Factory Mechtorian custom Janky toy series by Doktor A. Bruce Whistlecraft.

For the last three months I have been working away, putting this series of unique customised Janky characters together.

I have pushed the detail levels usually found on a 3.5″ figure. Adding tons of idiosyncratic, character building stuff. The inclusion of many props help add story to reach piece.

The Airship Factory in Retropolis has many moving parts and many skilled craftsmen. Each doing their part to create the large sky bound Mechtorians that float about the city.

The series includes eight unique hand crafted customised vinyl figures.
Each built on a Janky mini figure vinyl toy made by Superplastic.

No resin casting multiples have been used.
Each piece of each figure down to the last individual rivet has been carefully chosen, crafted and hand placed.

It makes this mini series something really special.
