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.
This 2.5″ tall resin Mechtorian figure will be released in two versions at ToyconUK.
The hand painted limited edition of 25 pieces and the open edition in “Cold-Cast” Bronze.
Each one of the painted edition comes with a key and is signed, dated and numbered.
All lovingly hand made in England, each piece is signed and comes in carded bag packaging.
The painted limited edition will be £50 each and the “Bronze” edition will be £25 each.
After the convention any remaining pieces will be available online.
I am very pleased to announce the launch of my latest vinyl Art Collectible.
The classically styled bust of Anesthesia was inspired by the incredible marble work of Raffaele Monti (1818–1881).
I sculpted the original piece in 2014 as a high end art sculpture. Now 3D Retro have transformed her into a stylish and affordable addition to your home decor.
I am very proud of Anesthesia as she is the first vinyl production piece of mine that I have sculpted myself. 3D Retro have done an amazing job in retaining all the tiny details of the original. The precision of the mechanical garland around her head is reproduced spectacularly. And the gossamer nature of her veil is just as effective in vinyl as in the original.
Halloween is nearly here again. Hurrah!
And just for the fun of it we decided to create a new Copper Creeps photo spread, in a Halloween style.
The complete range of Copper Creeps figures enjoy some frolics among some seasonal gourds.
All eight of the figures are still available to purchase in their open edition “Bronze or “pewter”” finishes. Also a limited amount of the Mono Handpainted versions are still available. The Phantom, Imhotep, The Wolfman and The Gillman can still be purchased in their rare Monotone painted styles direct from the online store.
The APs (Artist’s percentage) of my new 5″ Talking Board Dunny (from Kidrobot) will be available from 6pm (UK) on the 31st August from my online store.
Each is signed and numbered out of 12 on the underside of the foot.
There are two versions available.
The red original edition. And the Green, Glow-In-The-Dark edition which was a Kidrobot online exclusive and is more rare.
Today sees the launch of my latest Dunny with Kidrobot.
And yesterday they revealed a little surprise. There are two versions. The regular red edition, available for all Kidrobot stockists worldwide, and the green Glow-In-the-Dark version which is an exclusive Kidrobot version only available direct from them.
I will have a small number of signed (AP) versions of each available from my online store in the near future. They will however be offered to my Patrons first. So if you want to get first crack at them I recommend you consider joining my First Dibs Club.
