Art of Bruce Whistlecraft

I was lucky enough to be one of the artists invited to help celebrate the 20th anniversary of the popular Manga and Anime “One Piece” as part of a worldwide art campaign.

You can view the pieces by searching #bustercall on Instagram or following @bustercall_onepiece there.

Above is my piece “Dr. Anthony T. Chopper”.

The sculpture will be on show at Complex Con in Long Beach California on the 2nd – 4th November.

Pay him a visit and see lots more of the awesome art from the project at the Bustercall booth (A9) at the Long Beach Convention Center this coming weekend.

As well as the Tall Titfers there are just the Titfers.

Hats without tentacles..
You know, like… hats!

Designer Con will see the launch of this extended range on mini resin collectibles.

The Topper, Bowler and Fez will each be available in a Pewter, Bronze and Verdigris finish.

The edition size of each version is 100 pieces.

These hand cast 1″ tall figures come bagged with a header card.

They will be available online after the show.

A new range of resin mini figures.

Tit for tat – Hat.
Get ahead! Get a hat! In this case literally.
In Mechtoria any object from a building to an item of clothing may in fact be a sentient person with their own opinions and desires.
So putting together a harmonious outfit may take on an entirely different meaning.

For Designer Con I have created a very limited hand painted edition of just 10 pieces of each of the three new Tall Titfer characters.

Each figure comes with a real solid cast metal key.

There is the Teal Topper, Emerald Bowler and Red Fez.

Each will be only $50.

A small number will be available on Preview night.
The rest will be open for sale at the main door time.

Any remaining after the show will be offered online.

The popular 2.5″ tall resin Mechtorian figure Blinky Allsop will be released in a new hand painted colourway especially for ToyArt in Leeds.

The show exclusive edition of only 5 pieces.
£50 each.

All lovingly hand made in England, each piece has it’s own winding key, is signed & numbered and comes in carded bag packaging.

An industrious and mischievous little fellow.
Blinky is able to turn his hand (or rather his prehensile mustache) to just about anything.
Though he has never really got to grips with Macramé.
