Mini-Monsters and Krupdate.

Evening, friends! I just got home from work about forty-five minutes ago, and opened up the Monsterizer to see how the molds for the Krustiez came out. they look pretty good, but I may have to make some changes. We'll see after i run the urethane.

Anyways, yesterday i promised you guys some finished shots of the mini-monsters I sculpted. As promised, so delivered!

What do you think, sirs?

Next Batter!

So, I was hit by some car troubles today and was therefore unable to get to la Casa de los Padrinos, where a lot of my mold-making stuff still lives. This means I'll have to wait until tomorrow before I can cast Vin. Instead, here's a peek at who's up next.



This one's name is Purswillion Schweinebaron Von Dusseldorf (or something like that), or "Pus" for short. He's the wildly self-destructive type, and Vin's best friend He's always up for whatever, but rarely has ideas of his own. At least, not good ones. He has a thing for eating toothbrushes, and will drink anything you hand him.

Any thoughts?

I paint my pants on one leg at a time.

Here we go. Work in progress.  About an hour and a half into painting. Not even close to finished yet.  Well, maybe close-ish, yeah?  Still need to do his bowtie and jacket and whatnot.  I had myself a good chuckle when I realized that there's a picture of me wearing almost exactly this outfit. Gotta track that one down.  Good stuff. So tired. Must sleep.

Har Har.

OK. Sculpting portion of the Har Har is complete. Next needs prime and paint. I decided to give him a heringbone jacket. Stupid idea. That meant I had to herringbone the WHOLE jacket. I really like his pocket square, though. How you like me now?

Monster in Progress

So, a few weeks ago I spent the weekend with a pug who enjoys the nickname "Har Har," for the snorting noises she makes when she breathes.  This is because pugs are a congenital birth defect that we (we here meaning human beings) have purposely, selectively bred in otherwise perfectly healthy animals.  Anyhouse, I kept staring at this freak monster's sausage face, and was inspired.  I sculpted up a thing that was heavily influenced by this grotesque nugget's puss, and it turned into kind of a professor.  I'm tentatively giving this one the name Harvard Harrigan, in honor of the Har Har.  Work in Progress.  Sculpey over wire.
