SF Kumon Sold Out!!!

Hmmm, it was a slow show this time around but with the combination of people at SF and some that mailed me they are all gone. People were really into the colorway which was awesome for me, I really loved the way it came out. Funny thing is everyone thought it was all orange from that less than stellar iPhone pict until they saw it at the show. Actually its a metallic red that turns to orange on the skullface. Hopefully I will be getting a nicer camera for my wife and I to use this year so look for what I think will be better picts later. And not to toot my own horn, but Kumon looks a million times better than it already does in the picts when you have it in your hand and can really appreciate the design and sculpt!!!

Wax Buns

This has been a while in planning and getting done, with all involved being busy or on a tight budget it took a little time but it's sooooo worth the wait! Here is the wax after being taken from the mold of the original scuplt and cleaned up, which is just as laborious as the initial sculpt itself! Maybe more, if you mess this up you have to start over. :(
I like the green of the wax and maybe I'll do the figure itself in green later too. Anyway, another teaser shot to peruse.

Oh yeah, did I say I am stoked!

I started a new blog:

And its all M1GO and how I am obsessed by the beauty of monsters. Click on the link over to the right to see it, most of the posts are just ones I moved or edited from before but I will be adding more for sure.

And I started my cat crazy blog again too, so if you love the fuzz check it out.
