What?  No love for Groot?

I'm always flattered and a little embarrassed when someone asks to pay for one of my sculpts.  I prefer to make trades (BTW Brian, how's the head cast coming?), and I'm a sucker for a story with a kid. 
I guess I'll have to sign up for Facebook.  Someone else said I should join up.  Lord knows, I never use my Linkdn and Google+ accounts.

I know what you mean. I can barely keep up with a few and man Facebook just seems to suck me in and take all my time, but there is a ton of stuff on it.

Great sculpt on Rocket's head!  If you're selling casts, I'm in.  I love the idea of Mega Blocks figures for a base.  Very interested in seeing how he and Groot turn out. It's a bloody shame that movie-style Guardians figures were never put out in 1:18; they could have made a bundle.

FWIW, your Cane Adiss ranks among my all-time favorite customs.

Hey yarders!

I need to stop tweaking Groot's head.  The magnifiers have gotten me pretty far, but it got to the point that I was sculpting using my iPad on max magnification.  The white Aves was making me crazy, so I painted on eyes and gave him a thin wash to see the details.

Work on the body isn't quite as slow.  I'm using pics of the 1/6 scale Groot as a guide for the wood patterns on his body.

I've finally manned up and splurged on some good mold making stuff.  Molding heads tomorrow.

. 






More soon

The first head casts are curing right now?

Hey Yarders

Clone Crazy has posted another chapter of his KOTOR opera chapter seven, The Mandolorian Wars.
http://www.imperialshipyards.net/SMF/index.php?topic=9990.0

He's revealed a new character named Queen Nysa, which I've been keeping under wraps for months until he posted her in the PN.  Turnaround is fair play.  I think I kept him waiting for about two years for his commissions.

She was inspired by a sketch on Deviant Art, referred to as Visas Marr and by Raven of the Teen Titans.
https://www.pinterest.com/pin/323485185712855025/

The base figure is GI Joe Rise of Cobra, Paris Pursuit Baroness.  I've made a few modifications and used one of those Depa Billaba head casts.  The cloak and hood are made of purple nitrile gloves.  She's one of four commissions I made for CC.  I'll reveal the others, after he does.

She looks fantastic. Reminds me of a cool concept figure for Assassins Creed I saw awhile back only better in color. Way to go. Time to go share.

I didn't notice that until you mentioned it.
Thanks Tamer

Stunning! The use of a nitrile glove is inspired! She does indeed look like Visas Marr (a character from KOTOR II if you didn't know that already).
