Hey guys and galls!
Got something new for you! Meet the Cloud Puff! My new collectable resin toy!
"This is a little Cloud Puff! The sweetest little puff of cloud you'll ever meet. They spread cheer and laughter all over Tomodachi Island which is probably one of the most loved creatures on the Island. I mean look at that little squidgy face, how could you ever resist a smile having it pop by your window on a sunny day?"
I haven’t shared much of this little creature as I wasn’t 100% sure about it. I had a vision indeed, but as I was sculpting it I just wasn’t sure. In the end, I decided that I really liked it and I made a mould to see if it would come out as I had imagined. And it did! Better even! I am in love with it. The clear resin was definitely the way to go and I am so happy to be able to offer you something smaller and a bit more affordable than usual.
That squidgy little face is just to die for! They look like little gumdrops good enough to eat. I will be releasing 15 out of 20 this Wednesday. I have decided to keep five for ToyCon UK in June. I am currently working hard to get stock for ToyCon so the releases will most likely be limited over the next few months. But ToyCon should be a burst of colour and resins which I am looking forward to. My focus is on my originals this year. There will be a few customs, but not as many as usual. I will share more closer to the convention though.
I’m sure you want to know when and where to get your paws on these little puffs of cloud. They will as usual be available from my BigCartel Store on Wednesday the 6th of April @ 6.00 PM London Time! Preview is up at the store so you can get yourselves prepared.
The second batch of Gold Fleck & Lemon Drop - Cloudy Slumbers will be available at the same time. I am a bit late with this drop as I planned to do it last month, but better late than never, right? :D They are also up for preview for those who missed out on the last drop. They will go up at the same time as the Cloud Puffs.
" The Storm Finch - Birthed from a lightning bolt he rules the skies above Tomodachi Island. He does not leave the sky as this is all he knows. Up here he is safe, and he rests in the dark clouds of thunder. His flight brings the rumble of thunder to the Island and his speed pierces the rainclouds and makes them burst. He is a bringer of life of sorts, although he does not know it, as the Island depends on him for its crops and vegetation to grow."
I can not believe that I actually managed to pull this off in the end. Long has it been since I struggled so much with something. The learning curve for this seemingly minimalistic bird has been like climbing a summit. But you know what, even though I was on the verge of giving up so many times, I just didn’t. I came back and I tried something new, again and again, until today when all the puzzle pieces finally came together.
I felt something for this sculpt months ago when I first finished the sculpt. He followed me around the house, I couldn’t let go of him. He gave me comfort sitting in my hand. It was such a lovely shape to hold and stroke. Nuts right?! HAH! Well, he really is special, and I don’t know why. I rarely feel much for my own art, but this one has a special place in my heart and I hope I can develop him more as I go along and become more comfortable with resin casting.
There was literally NOTHING that wasn’t tricky about this cast. I had bubbles appearing in the weirdest of places in the wing and on his body even though I use both vacuum chambers and pressure pots. And once I managed to add enough vents to the mould I found that his legs would not carry his weight and he ended up sinking till he finally hit the floor with his beak and the legs were folded in half.
But after many different tries with adding metal rods to his legs and so on and so forth, I realized that white resin is much harder and stronger than clear resin. So even though I would have liked a clear resin I just had to abandon the idea and cast his legs in solid white resin and paint them after. So that is what I did. I think the most important lesson I have learned on this journey is that sometimes you just have to let go and follow the wind. And when I did just that, everything just worked.
I had a lot of help from Malte, who you might know as MuffinMan, Alessandro (Codec Zombie), and Carl (KoncreteHaze) when I struggled with the legs. And Malte has given me the lowdown on the resin in general and is such a fantastic teacher. So I want to thank when all especially for helping me out.
Anyway, enough jibber-jabber! Good old Storm Finch will be available for Pre-Orders from the 20th of May, 2021 @ 6.00 PM London Time! There will be a limited number of 15 Finches, all signed and numbered by yours truly. I will need a little longer than normal to complete these so there will be roughly two to three months before they will be sent out. I promise you it will be worth the wait though because they are truly amazing!
And as always they will be available from my BigCartel Store right HERE!
Preview is available now!
Hey hey!
First custom of the year! Took me long enough…. I don’t even know what I’ve been doing since January! But I do know that I have been working on this one for what feels like forever.
Turned out he would be quite a challenge this one. Now generally a painted commission like this one would cost you a bit less than a sculpted commission. What I learnt from this though, is that a paint job isn’t always quicker and easier than a sculpt. The detail I have put in to this custom is beyond anything I have ever done before. And don’t get me wrong, I loved every second of it. But it also set me back roughly three weeks in my planner, and that is something that has a knock-on effect to all my other work.
These are things that happen every now and then to be fair. Art is art after all and it doesn’t seem to be following any rules. Some things are easier than they seem and some are much harder than they seem. What I have to take away from this though, is that I have learnt something new. And it’s been a while since I took something on that was completely out of my comfort zone. But from taking this on, I have excelled at my painting skills, and in my creative thingking and process. It has opened up a world of new possibilites. It has given me confidence as well.
This was a commission, so he won’t be up for sale. I would really love to create more of these types of customs in the future. Commissions list will be back open come July/August time, depending a bit on set backs amongst other things. For now I have to dive back into the studio and try to finish this months custom, and try to catch up on my tight schedule.
Thanks to Matthew, who gave me the chance to work on this beauty, and for trusting me in taking on sucha new and in a way daunting task. It’s been fantastic and a learning curve to say the least! Hah!

These majestic beings will mark the last customs of the year from me. I wanted to go out with a bang this year. And after all the struggles I’ve had with my over loaded mind and being ill for about two months straight, I wanted to let my hands and mind do whatever they wanted. No holding back in any way or form. It’s very rare that I have time to work on something as detailed as these two.
It has truly been a blessing and a treat to my mind and soul. Now there’s still an awful lot stuck in my head, but I can breathe again. As for next year I will be working on more big projects like these.
It is my first year running as a business and the first year that Tomodachi Island has meant a great deal to our finances. That is why it has been so stressful. I have hit new highs and new lows this year, but it is all a learning curve right? Next year will be much more structured. There will be allot of small pieces in bigger batches but also room for big beauties like these.
WIND ELEMENTAL
Most of the time I haven’t decided on the colour schemes of a custom until I actually start painting it, and I’d say that 95% of the time I end up going in a completely different direction from what I originally planned. I had so many colours in mind for the Wind Elemental. Since the sculpt is so complicated a mix of too many colours could have ruined it though. So I went with a really soft blue gradient with white and brass details to give it that almost angelic look. I’m so proud of it!
This is where I really had to put myself out of my comfort zone… When I had finished the water and all the blue tones, it was all just too…..blue. I felt really lost to be honest. But as I have drawn, painted and tattooed a million Japanese inspired tattoos, the answer was just around the corner.
I haven’t painted a peony in so many years now though and it was quite daunting to paint something like this again. I have just gotten so used to sculpting everything these days. It was like a whiff of fresh air though and made the whole piece pop. Definitely the cherry on top of the cream.
I’m guessing you want to know where and when you can get your mits on these beasts now?! Well as per usual they will be available at my Big Cartel Store this Thursday 13th of December at 4.00 PM London Time! Preview is available now, so head on over and have a little looksie!
I also want to take the time to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
I am signing out for 2018 and am looking forward to a crazy 2019 with so many awesome things happening that I just can’t wait to tell you all about!
2018 has been sooooooooooooo good! But 2019 I am convinced will be my best year yet!
Thank you all for your continuous support, without you I would be nothing!!!!

Now this, this is my favorite toy so far this year. Literally one day after I said to my other half that I would love to work on a Bearhead from Luke Chueh my PM on IG pinged and there was Cory from Strangecat Toys asking me if I wanted to take part in his show "Bearly, a Custom Toy" in September. And guess what the chosen platform was?! YES, a Bearhead!!!!
I wanted to create something mystical and extraordinary and I think I did. I am happy I sketched this out on paper first or I don't think the end result would have been as good. I also chose to paint the eyes myself as I couldn't find anything suitable. I will be doing this allot in the future. Imagine all the possibilities!
I tried to imagine something very spiritual in a way. And yet again my fascination for mother nature took over. So I thought of the bear head as something dead that with the help of nature is reborn into a higher entity. It's becoming one with mother nature. She gives and she takes....
The easiest part was the head. The wooden base took some time and some planning. I built the base out of foil to get the right shape around the head and then stabilized it with epoxy. Wood is so forgiving to sculpt as it has got no rules or boundaries. You can just do whatever you want with it.
I did the base in three different parts so that I could paint them separately and then assemble them after. This was to achieve a more professional looking paint job. It was almost like making a puzzle. So hard to get all the pieces to match. But as you can see, it all worked out fine.
Now I ended up using just over 1 lb of Sculpey on this sculpt.... Yes that is allot, and as you can imagine this toy weighs quite a bit. 1.5 KG to be exact. It's the heaviest and biggest toy I've ever made.
"Reborn" will be showing at the "Bearly, a Custom Toy Show" by Strangecat Toys at Redefine Gallery, Orlando, FL on September 2nd and 3rd 2016! And I can't wait to see all the other customs for this show. The Bearhead is for sure one of my most favorite platforms so far. Absolutely Amazing! So make sure you don't miss out on this one!
This is Ori! My first fully human custom! I did do the Space Crab last year that had a human face but this is the first full body human I've done. It has really been something! I don't want to send her of to her owner hahaha!
I've been working on her for about a week, even though I started roughly two weeks ago. I had a few things to finish in between. She was a "Bode Broad" by Mark Bode originally and I have seen quite a few of these Bode Broads popping up around IG. To be honest I wasn't a big fan of the original toy. Not until I had her in the post and got to hold her in my hands and have a good look at her.
This toy is so well sculpted and something you can't appreciate in a photo. Every curve in her body is perfect and she is so well weighted. Even though she was well sculpted there were many bits that wouldn't work with the style I wanted to go for. I had a long an hard job in front of me. Cutting her drape off was the hardest part! I decided to keep it at first but as I went along it was just getting in the way. So I brought out my dremel and started hacking away at it. At this point there was no turning back and I just had to go with it. Little did I know of the massive lump of resin that was sitting in her feet. I nearly killed myself getting that out but I won in the end. After this I had to re-sculpt her legs which took me an age. If there is one thing I've learnt over the past year, it is that nothing will get in my way of achieving what I want when it comes to customizing.
Her face was the most important thing to me. I wanted her to look like one of my Sci-Fi Pinup girls, so I had to restructure her face. Getting the eyes in there was not easy and this is when I wish I had more than one set of hands. After allot of struggling and re-positioning I managed to secure them in one place. But before I even started sculpting, I had to find a way to make her visor.... took me a while to figure that one out. After allot of thinking I had a light-bulb moment! It was a bit of a gamble to be fair, but worked out! I found a place online that did see through Christmas tree baubles in all sorts of colours and since I needed the visor to have a slight bend in it, it seemed like the perfect option. I ordered two different sizes as I didn't know which one would be the right size. Funny enough the smaller one had the exact same bend as her face. WIN! I also redid her nose and added those big ears. Don't even get me started on the ears.....
Do you know how hard it is to sculpt ears? No?! I do! LOL! :D It is hard. And what is even harder is to get them somewhat symmetrical. Symmetry is the bane of my life. I am addicted to it! To sum it all up this have been majorly challenging but an absolute blast! I've been wanting to do something like this for a long time so when I got asked for a Bode Broad commission I jumped at the opportunity! I really want to design my very own Pinup Vinyl Toy one day! That would be a dream come true! I've got so many ideas and a much better understanding of it now.
What an awesome piece of vinyl!!! Thank you for letting me work on this pure piece of beauty Josh!
Whilst waiting for supplies for my Steam Punk series I thought I'd finish the Mishka Dunnys that I bought quite some time ago. I also wanted to try out my new amazing Iwata Eclipse Airbrush. All I can say about it, is that it is amazing. Sooooo smooth compared to my old one and such a nicely weighted piece of kit. It rests amazingly well in your hand. I will get some more accessories and nibs for it though so that I can start to work on some very fine detail. I can definitely recommend the Iwata Eclipse to anyone who wants to start airbrushing. A++++++++++!
Now, I wanted to focus more on the painting on these two as the sculpt would be limited. So I decided to work with nice gradients and animal print. Animal print have been on my list for a while, but I haven't really made anything that it would suit until now. I also wanted to give these real bright colours as I tend to work with pastel and quite dull colours normally. The challenge was to look outside of the box and come up with the colour palettes. It is safe to say that I need a kick in the right direction when it comes to colour so I had to look at I don't know how many colour palettes online. I finally came up with these which I think compliment each other really well.
The "Keep Watch" Dunny have been great fun to work on and the base sculpt is lovely and detailed. All in all a great experience.
Kuma
This is Kuma. She's a bundle of joy to say the least. She loves anything sweet and festive and yes, her most favorite thing of all is fancy dress. And she makes all her costumes her self of course.
Gizo
Gizo and Kuma are the best of friends and Gizo loves fancy dress just as much as Kuma if not even more (but hush don't tell Kuma). Gizo too makes her own costumes but another favorite thing of hers is to make origami.
Gizo and Kuma will be available from my BIg Cartel store on Monday the 21st of September at 9.00 PM BST (GMT+1) at £82.00 each with Free Shipping within the UK (£10.00 for the rest of the world).
Here he is! My Seishin Spiki for Martian Toys and New York Comic Con! It is my very first show piece and I couldn't be more excited about participating in "Spiki Attacks New York Comic Con"... I am part of an amazing line up where many of my favourite artists and toys designer can be seen as well. I just feel so honored to be part of this and I hope it is the first of many shows to come.
It's been nice to work on something different than a Dunny as I tend to work on those platforms and awful lot. Spiki caught my eye some time ago and I always wanted to customize one. I have so many platforms sitting on a shelf just waiting to have some work done to them, but I do find it very hard to find the time to get it all done. Work and baby seem to take up most of my time these days but I do appreciate my toys even more so now that I can't work on them every day.
He's an awesome little custom and I hope he will find a forever home over at NYCC next month. He will be available from Martian Toys both along with an array of different custom Spiki's.
I don't know when the next lot of customs will be ready as my airbrush decided to pack up half way through painting little Spiki here. So I will have to get another one. It was nice to work on Spiki the traditional way though and I managed to get some real nice detail in there like the fur on the back of his arms for example. I don't think I would have done that if my airbrush'd still been working.
I will keep you posted though as I have a load of ideas for the next lot of customs. Hope you enjoy looking at Spiki until then! <3
My Little Batlings are finally finished! I've been working on them for about two weeks now. I never thought I would have as little time as I do now after going back to work and all. But I do my best to squeeze in as much toy work as possible when I can.
These Batlings are probably the best customs I've made so far. I have spent so much time on every little detail and I kept sanding and adjusting them for about two days. My airbrushing skills are becoming better and better as well and I think this really shows in the final paint job. Actually I think I am ready for finer detail but I need a new airbrush before I can start practicing that. So I need to save up for a bit. Anyway, I hope you like these little Batlings and don't forget to check the store on Monday night if you want to grab one for yourself. Enjoy reading their stories below.
"The little Batlings live in the deep caverns of Tomodachi Island. Funny enough these little creatures are very scared of the dark. This has resulted in the Caverns being one of the brightest places on Tomodachi Island. They have decorated the caverns with bright fairy-lights in all the colors of the rainbow. Their furs are naturally dark and quite dull but they have sorted this out themselves as well by painting each other in various colors and patterns. "Dark" is just something they don't want to know about, so they pretend that it does not exist at all."
This is Loki. He is sleepy most of the time and he absolutely loves stars, however he is terrified of the dark. It's a bit tricky as you can only see the stars when it's dark so some of the creatures of Tomodachi Island has come to Lokis rescue and collected fallen stars for him so that he can enjoy the things he love the most without having to venture out in the scary darkness outside of the caverns.
And this is Pellie. She might be one of the sweetest little creatures that you can find in the caverns. Always spreading love around her wherever she goes. Of course she is obsessed with anything heart shaped and sparkly. Her most favorite thing to do is to hug and snuggle.
Little Fioline. Constantly running in and out of the caverns to collect all the beautiful flowers she can carry. In fact it is probablt time for a little clean out soon, as the flowers have almost taken over the caverns. The other Batlings love treasure and bling, but not Fioline. She prefers to fall asleep on a bed of flowers every night.
And Guster of course. Who can forget about Guster. Let's just say he's pretty loud. Always high on sugar and his laughter can be heard echoing through the caverns. He likes to play pranks on the Owlings that live and guard the treasures in the caverns. He sure is a prankster, the little devil.
All the Batlings will be available from my Big Cartel store from 09.00 PM BST (GMT+1) on Monday the 27th of July. Be there or be square!
Karii and Ekii are finished! I know I've said it before but I have to say it again! I LOVE WORKING ON THESE LITTLE THINGS! I am definitely addicted to Dunnys and I can't stop working on the platform. Anyway who cares! Keep reading for a closer introduction of these two little fellas.
"Karii comes from the northern part of the Whispering Woods. It is slightly colder here but his coat is thick and warm. Karii is part of the Deer Folk tribe. This tribe always travel in heards through the woods. Just like deers they are always on their guard and they can be quite hard to spot. They specialize in camouflage and melt in with their surroundings really well. Not much is known about them as they tend to keep to themselves. Maybe they will let us in one day, but until then, lets enjoy their beauty from a distance."
Keep in mind that these are only 3" tall and the detail on the wood was very time consuming.
Karii came out just as cute as I'd planned and I think he looks pretty much exactly like the picture I drew. Whispering Woods is such a large part of Tomodachi Island and I have got loads of creatures lined up from this part. I wish I had more than two hands sometimes...
"Ekii is a shy little creature. Part of the species Snubble Folk. He is very small, about the size of a house mouse and his favourite thing to do is to build little nests inside of old tree trunks. Don't think that his nests would look anything like a mouses though. Oh no, Ekii spends allot of time planning and gathering the perfect materials for his nests. They may be small but oh so grand! He is a craftsman and his handy work is quite impressive. Maybe he will show us one day, but for now only the Snubble folk of the Whispering Woods will truly know what his creations look like, as they are the only ones he work for."
I think it is obvious that Ekii took me the longest to make. His pine-cone/acorn hat nearly drove me insane. Saying that I probably didn't have to spend half as long on it as I did. I have discovered that the scalpel is a much better "sanding" tool than sandpaper, so get things very even. This also mean that I have found another way of getting lost in nit picking and fine-tuning.....
Oh the tiny tiny detail.....
Both Ekii and Karii are available for purchase in my BigCartel shop: HERE!
"Swashbuckling Judith - She is the Queen of Candy Coves sister, believe it or not. Several years ago she was caught leaving the Island on a pirate ship that was passing by. Now she travels the seven seas together with her pirate mateys in search of treasure. Some say that she's lost her mind, but who knows. She's not set foot on Tomodachi Island since she left so these are only rumors. She was last seen on a ship heading towards Switzerland"
My very first Dunny Commission! I am in love with 3" Dunnys and I have gotten myself a smaller army of them after this. I was so daunted by working on something so small. But it turned out to be a delight to work on these 3" beauties!
Swashbuckling Judith sits on a 3" Kidrobot Sword Swallower Dunny!
She's got a pretty collection of skull beads decorating her hat.
And who can travel the seven seas on a pirate ship without a Jolly Roger? Not Judith anyway!
Good Morning and here's to a new week. Last week was a bit of a stress for me trying to get my shop launch up and going. I am an expert at stressing for no good reason and so I burnt myself out a bit last week. This has resulted in extreme tiredness. I forget about the sleep I actually do need when I am on a creative streak so I am trying to catch up on some now. I'm not doing very well... Last night, or this morning rather I went to bed at 4.00 am. Shivering as my body and brain is just so exhausted. I really don't know why I do this to myself, there's just no helping me.
The shop launch went well anyway. There was a few things that messed up like the shipping prices for example. So I have decided to offer Free World Wide shipping on all items! I hope that the huge shipping prices didn't put people off (which I am sure it did)! But now they're gone anyway so if they did put you off you're welcome back to have another looksie.
"The Passing to Yurei" went within 30 min of the shop launch so I guess someone was sitting there waiting. He will be leaving me today to begin his journey to his new home. I am super excited to have sold my very first custom toy! I've also received a Dunny commission that I will be starting this week.
If you're interested in a commission for whatever it may be then HERE is a form that you can fill out and I will get back to you with a quote!
Now I'm on to the next chapter of Tomodachi Island. I've started sculpting it but won't show you until the ball is rolling what I am working on. Lets just say that I am pretty excited about it and as always I love to discover new grounds.
There will not be another big batch of toys but there will be random additions to the shop as I make them from now on. There will probably be small series from time to time, but not a big batch of 10 like last Friday. It was quite simply to launch my shop, and it was way to stressful for me LOL!
I've got a load of 3" Dunnys coming my way as well. So I am looking forward to getting some Dunny action in the shop in a near future.
"He was once a magnificent beast from the Whispering Woods. He migrated to the Sakura Sanctuary quite some time ago now. He has now reached his final form as a Yūrei and is now ready to leave the island to become part of the spirit realm."
Rooz is now finished and I've almost hit the finish line. One more to go and the sale is only a week and a half away. I am very happy with Rooz and so pleased to have worked on this kidrobot platform. I know he is quite rare, but I don't understand why. It is amazing to work on and has a super cute silhouette.
The are hard to come by but I hope to work on this platform again in the future. I always keep an eye out for good deals and rare platforms so I am sure I will bump in to him again some time.
I used decals for his forehead and his back which worked really well with this job. For tiny detail I find the decals very handy and I love designing them on the computer. It can be a real struggle to work with when it's this small though. But with patience it will come together in the end.
"The Passing to Yūrei" will be part of the sale on May 1st at 12:00pm GMT.
I've finished one of the more elaborate drawings for my up and coming sale. It is part of a series I started long ago called "Earth Mother". I finished the sketches about half a year ago and have been very indecisive with them. I couldn't decide whether to paint them or draw them. I'm not much of a painter though and in the end I decided to go with pencil. I think it was the right decision.
I've always had a fascination for wood in all its forms and I love the power of nature and how she can reclaim more or less anything. I believe, no matter how much the human race will destroy on this planet, mother nature will always win in the end. I don't know how, but in one way or the other she will. It'll probably mean that the human race will be wiped out completely though.
She is the first in a series anyway. A series of female busts that have been reclaimed by nature in various ways. I don't know when I will finish the rest, but they will pop up now and then. I will have a limited amount of prints for sale as well as the original.
This project is definitely one of the longest ever. The finish line just feels further and further away every day. Funny thing with toys is that I always finish them. If this was a painting I would probably never finish it, as I run out of patience when things take to long. It goes to show once again that I am truly in my element now. I think this is the last time I will be working on three toys at the same time however. But they do go in the same series so I guess it had to be done.
The paint job took forever and is only about 50% done. I can't wait to be able to afford some proper air brush paint like the high flow Golden acrylics though. I got black and white the other day and I now know why everyone loves Golden Acrylics so much. They sure as hell are the best acrylics out there for custom toys, and probably for painting as well.
I also managed to break all the zippers whilst painting them. But I think it was for the best or they'd probably broken in transit anyway knowing my luck. But I have a solution to that problem that will look so much cooler. So no biggie really.
Sorry for the lack of updates this week by the way. Been a busy one and yesterday I took my little baby girl to London for the day which was a bit of an adventure. Today I am absolutely knackered though. Looking forward to next week when I plan to get loads done and hopefully finish these little devils.
I only just finished my first custom vinyl toy. It is litteraly just over a month since I did Trikky and Brob and just a couple of weeks ago that I finished The Queen of Candy Cove. I could never have imagined being featured by Kidrobot them selves but not only did they feature The Queen of Candy cove on their Instagram but also in their Blog!
I've been such a massive fan of Kidrobot for years and years so to be featured by them is a huge dream come true. Wow! I'm so happy! Thank you guys so much!
As if that wasn't enough, The Toy Chronicle, which is an amazing UK Toy Blog that I have followed for quite some time as well, did a full feature on me.
The feature made me feel special and it's brought out even more inspiration than I thought was possible. The boost from these features is just amazing. I really feel on top of the world and I can't say thank you enough! THAAAAAANNNNKKK YOOOU! <3
CLICK THE PICTURES TO READ THE FULL FEATURES!
I did manage to get some sculpting done over the weekend anyway. So the Dudes now got little horns in various shapes and sizes and the third Dude has got a face as well. I managed to start on the zippers as well which was one hell of a tricky one but came out nice in the end.
Teeny tiny detail.... Even made my hand shake for a second and I can't say that has ever happened before. The detail is great though and I'm very pleased with the end result. Now I got another two to make... pheeeeew!
Maybe maybe maybe I will be able to start a paint job next week. Let's hope ey!
And the third face is in place. Might make some small changes to this one though, it don't feel finished for some reason.
So many toys, so little time.... Or something! I do have time but something has come up that is way more important for the future of mine and my little family. So I have to put things on hold for about a week and only work when the little one is asleep lol. Not the end of the world I guess, but I'm so itching to finish of every single DIY platform I've got. But all in good time.
I'm also waiting for the glass eyes to be delivered so that I can start sculpting my Dudeboxes. I hate when things are said to be delivered at a certain date and then you sit there waiting all day and NOTHING! Good god it winds me up. I need to stop being so impatient me thinks.
Anyway, it is TBT and I thought I'd share with you one of my old Timelapses from Vimeo. I used to do these all the time, but since I am more in to traditional art than digital art at the moment I haven't done any in ages. You can check out my Vimeo for more videos and some embarrassing animations from when I did my degree.
I suggest you watch it in HD. Much better that way! :D
Here she is anyway, I drew her on my way to London for whatever reason I can't remember, but that is why she is called The Bus Girl anyway. Hope you like!
