Cronic themes

Thanks for the kind words, all!

Temples are full of so much art: sculptures, carvings, paintings, etc. So I took the shots there with that in mind, to pair the figures with the amazingly vibrant colors and beautiful imagery of the temple.

I've thought about taking a group shot of all my figures but won't do that indoors unless the lighting is right, and don't know if I want to bring so many figures outdoors at once. Anyway, there will be more themed group shots in the coming weeks!

 

even more? wow, cannot wait!

 

The figures definitely look at home at the temple. So cool!

 

i'd kill for the camguts dude

 

Very cool!

 

stupid question: whats a cronic?

 

I've only ever seen 1 Cronic Camguts on YJP! and went for a little more than I wanted to pay. Such is life. Nice pics, btw.

 

Cronic is the company/"artist name" of Naoki Koiwa, an independent Japanese artist who designs/sculpts/paints/etc his kaiju figures. So far he has five different sculpts.

Most of his releases are in very small numbers, since he does everything himself (he also works full time, as an architect), in the range of 5-15 figures per version.

Hope that helps.

(More grouped theme pics will be coming, in time...!)

 

Uh, I really like that Sunguts guy.

Is this a clear handpainted by the Cronic guy?
Gorgeous.

 

Yeah, it's a clear handpaint by Koiwa-san. Somewhere around 10 pieces were made for WF.

 

Set 5: Handpaints

Green backdrop is a Cronic banner designed by Koiwa-san.

 

Hand painted cronic looks like puppy kong.

 

Holy damn those are nice handpaints, I've never even seen that black one before. Sweet sweet sweet

 

Thanks.

 

Andy, beautiful stuff again!

If you ever need to re-home the handpainted mav, please let me know, I have something it would fit perfectly with ;D

 

I just shit myself

Spell check on that jacket.

You need to lighten up and learn how to take a joke.
