Yakimon Ceramic Figures

Yeah I'll be making more feejee apes for sure
I've got new heads in the works too, as well as close to starting on a new figure.

Btw I'm pulling this "Yakimon" line away from Munktiki to be its own entity. I have a meeting today for the development of the new Yaki-mon.com website

 

I got a couple of Mile's Yakimons and they are absolutely gorgeous. A lot of subtle details dun really show up well (or at all) in pictures and they are much larger than they appear to be heh.

One of my items cracked badly during shipping from a 3rd party (not Miles/TAG) but it's always part and parcel of shipping ceramics, which I believe with Mile's years of packing and shipping ceramics is greatly minimized. and I think it's definitely well worth the small risk for getting these awesome ceramics.

Compared to other crazy expensive stuff I see being hawked around everyday, these are really affordable for the endless fun and visual joy they give me.

 

Love my Matango from Miles, I need to get on the ball and get some of the newer stuff!

 

The new http://www.yaki-mon.com/ website is up and rolling. I put in stock the first Mecha Dokuro Ape fresh outta the kiln.
Tomorrow I'll be listing two rad mashups and colorways in editions of 5. One is a Takoshi/Ape tribute to Dr. Gori and the other a psychedelic Ape. Super excited to show these two tomorrow.

Btw Ive got my store set up for now with a 10% discount to Skullbrainers... just type in "skullbrainer".

Thanks for all the thumb ups!!

 

Thanks!

 

First two Micro Runs>

Psych Ape


And a Takoshi/Ape Gori Mashup

 

Dr. Gori is perfect! The arms up give him a nice touch.

 

Man I want the Psych Ape so badly, but no money...

 

dr gori! had you planned on this mash-up from the beginning? regardless: genious.

 

I hadnt planned it at all. Ive been sitting on the mash-up for a couple weeks trying to figure out the glaze. It finally hit me that Gori was what I needed to do.

Huge thanks to everyone who snagged something today. Only a couple Gori's left out of the batch, but more will come.

 

Man, they all are great! I like that the Yakimon figures have their own site now and the shop header is really nice too.

Who is the Pester looking guy in the header drawing? Have you already done a figure of him that I hadn't noticed, or is he one in the works?

I'm super excited for the guy heading my way!

 

Miles, the Dr, Gori is so cool. If any of those make it down TAG's way I'm buying the first one out of the box.

 

I meant to hold a psych ape to send down but spaced. Ill definitely hold a Gori to send down though

 

Oh man, fantastic colors, and great mashup!

 

WIP Dissected Ape. Using techniques I haven't used since I was in Japan last, super stoked.

 

it's a good look, very nice

 

That dissected bit looks really nice. Great work!

 

New Figure up on Yaki-Mon.
Micro Run Dokuro Ape, just two left!


Also coming soon
Mutton Chomper Ape

 

The mutton chomper head is insanely great. I also like that he looks like he's filled with lava.

 

Thanks! I'm working on the sculpt right now for Mutton Chompers full body. Can't wait to get it finished!

 

Its pretty fantastic, can't wait to see the body.

Any vinyl on the horizon?

 

Well there is this...

 

I should have said, any more vinyl. I've already got the green Takoishi.

A painted Takoshi, or just a huge run of Ikakumora would be spiffy.
