That new Mahownic or however you spell that character sure does lend itself to a smaller or child looking figure. Nice work. On the front page.

Awesome youngling Brian! Now I have a request, if you will intertain it. You shouls sculpt over his boots when you get time. Make them look like his bare legs! That would be awesome!

I think I can pull that off.  It's funny, I haven't touched my paints or the Apoxie Sculpt in over a month.  I keep putting it off.  Not sure if I'd call it a break, but I have been trying to avoid work intensive pieces and get some time away with all the NPKB work that I've been doing.  This will get me back in the swing of things.

This is the week of the Zombie at ISY. Love it Brian. That video was the first thing I loaded this morning.

Thanks Shawn.  I hope I can find another Zombie Viper.  I'd love to make a few of these.

Thanks :) This is the 1st time I ever made a figure that I can't put down after I made it.  I just can't get tired of configuring him in various poses. 

I really need to make at least four more of these at some point.

Your Death Trooper is awesome!  Excellent use of the new Joe Zombie arms, etc.; I like that figure, but I think I'd also rather use the pieces to create something more original. 

Nice video presentation too!

Light side, dark side...meh.  Just give me a lightsaber and a blaster and I'll take care of it!

So I accepted L.E.'s challenge and I sculpted legs onto the Gran Jedi youngling.  I also added Neomodian and Avozse Jedi younglings to Elias' collection over the weekend.  Also in our latest post over at the blog is an old Quermian Jedi youngling that we bought on ebay, but was damaged in shipping.  We included pictures of the repaired Jedi youngling in the post as well.
