We three bears be stealin' the gold....

Here are the apocalyptic 3 Bears i've been working on for a while now.

PANDA:
Featuring 9 points of articulation! The brave panda is always sent out first, and delivers any recon back to base with his massive in-ear satellite. Complete with pick-arms and a scythe-tail, the Panda is equipped to travel on any terrain and is skilled in the art of parkour.


POLAR:
Featuring 6 points of articulation! The Polar bear is equipped with a Tri-cannon and long range pulse rifle for pinpoint accuracy. His white coat helps camouflage him to an extent and aids him in any ranged tasks, but he just might fall asleep while covering you from a distance. Oopsy!


BLACK:
Featuring 5 points of articulation! The mighty Black bear is a born warrior in mind and body. Complete with flame thrower and a little pistola, this beast doesn't need a big gun to inflict lots of damage. Stay out of his way... he is clumsy!!

Chuckboy Custom: Full Reveal!

Here are full pics of the Chuckboy custom I posted teasers of the other day. It's called "G.N.A.T." (Geothermal Nuclear Armored Trooper). He was created as a suit of armor powered by Nuclear Fission, but the experiment went awry and now can devour anything in it's path!!!!

Custom Ozo on the way....

You heard me!! A custom Ozomahtli... you don't see many of these! In fact, I don't think I've ever seen one. Lots of work to do, but this is just a WIP teaser anyway. Thanks to Spanky for the Ozo!!

I think he isn't feeling well...

My wrist was sore from painting toys... so I changed it up with something flat! I wonder if i can finish it today? Its absurd how long toys take in comparison to canvas.

Plop Culture

I source a great deal of my artistic inspiration from books, music and movies, albeit most of this influence is lost in translation or has somehow evolved into a semi-subjective form that probably doesn't reflect it's counterpart in any way. Regardless, the names of just about all my pieces will usually give a hint to that influence. Here are a few of them:

William S. Burroughs and Naked Lunch (by far my biggest influence next to Dali)
Mr. Bungle
Boogie Nights
Fringe Deities
The Tenant
Anything in Technicolor
William Blake
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Terry Gilliam
Sergei Paradjanov
Theodore Kaczynski
John Zorn
Brett Easton Ellis
Chuck Palahniuk
Werner Herzog
Secret Chiefs 3

Can anyone match the name of a piece from my toy or canvas gallery with an influence above?

"Raul..." Labbit Finished Pics


....The rabbit is not like us. It has no keen look at something in the mirror... it has no history books, no photographs, no knowledge of sorrow or regret. I like rabbits and all... they're cute and they're horny. And if you're cute and you're horny, then you're probably happy, in that you don't know who you are and why you're even alive.... I just don't see the point in crying over a dead rabbit who never even feared death to begin with.....

"Raul, Postmaster of Haste"
Custom 5" Labbit
Handpainted with acrylics, 1/1
Sealed with a UV resistant finish

"Raul, Postmaster of Haste"

This is Raul. He is a 5" Labbit. Being the postmaster of haste, he delivers things we cannot even fathom. Why are you looking at his bum???

The Smallest Custom Dunny in the World...

This little guy measures under 1 cm!!! It's part of an apocalyptic themed display I did to house three "Cyborg Bear" custom dunnys (Polar, Panda and Black bears), and is currently on it's way to London. It's not really that detailed, but it fits the theme... and it's so freaking small!!! More teaser pics coming soon!
