Arts Unknown and myself have become convinced of the existence of the “Curse of Bella”.
Some toy projects run as smooth as clockwork. Some do not. This one is one of the latter..
Bella has resisted creation every step of the way. But after several abandoned digital sculpting attempts and two physical sculpting attempts we finally have a locked down final prototype which is capable of being manufactured..
I am sorry so many of you have had to wait so long to meet her, but she is moving forward now at speed.
Along the way everything that could go wrong, has gone wrong.. The highlight (or lowlight of which) was the flooding of one of the sculptor’s studios, Bella wanting to escape to the sea no doubt..
It’s been a baptism of fire for Arts Unknown as this was one of their first projects. But they stuck by it and like myself decided to do it right or not do it at all.
And now she is looking better than ever. With improved, re-tooled weapons and a secret tucked away somewhere.
She is, quite literally, a killer…
On Saturday the 5th of May the final Bella Enamelled badge goes on sale from my online store.
This time it is the much collected “Mourning” edition. Polished silver, Purple and Black.
Each 1″ metal and enamel filled badge is engraved on the rear with its edition number out of a total of 100 pieces. They come carded and bagged.
It looks like an art book I was asked to be a part of has been published.
“Steampunk: The Art of Victorian Futurism” curated by Jay Strongman and published by Korero books.
It’s a splendid hardbacked tome of loosely categorised steampunk style artist’s works. Lots of lovely photos and some mini biographies as well as a short round up of what Steampunk is all about..
It’s more of an artbook than anything else, there is no cosplay type prop works included here other than the splendid works of Mr. Tom Banwell. Even Mr. Brian Despain gets a few pages which gives you an idea how loose the Steampunk label is.
I have been invited to be part of four or five books like this, but this is the only one to make it to print thus far. And I am jolly pleased to be included in this handsome edition.

Organic Chemist by trade Archibald Schpoon enjoyed cookery as a hobby.
Upon a chance meeting with Joshua Hipplethwaite he began experimenting with confectionary and soon it became a driving passion.
He delved into the conundrum of complex and unusual ingredient combinations and the unexpected effects that they could have on some types of Mechtorians.
Ever pushing and blurring the boundaries of what was possible within the fields of exquisite delicacies and recreational pharmaceuticals.

Joshua Hipplethwaite
Confectioner and innovator, Joshua is the creator of the renown Ee-by-Gum, chewing candy.
This popular delicacy has an odd intoxicating effect on steam driven Mechtorians, but is repugnant to those who are spring wound.
One of the fastest selling sweets in history, it’s long term effects are unknown and its prohibition has been called for in some quarters.
Though he does not partake himself Joshua wised to dispense his product as far as possible.
To this end he rebuilt his own body so he could crank out the candy wherever he travelled.
First one is free! And they always come back for more.
