| Post subject: | Bwana's WTF |
Went to see what Bwana was up to at Schmancy's early this evening. Lotsa little & medium paintings (some old & some new), figures, shirts & his new book. Really nice guy. I had had a long day so I ducked out before the crowds & pencil fights arrived. Definitely check it out if you are in nearby for last legs of the 'tour'. Could not spring for any paintings or handpaints, but did get the GID Stevens from the NYC, Paris (or London?) & Seattle shows.

nothing against bwana, hes an awesome guy, but this paint application isnt doing anything for me. it seems too transparent and haphazardly sloppy. |

Let's see some glow shots! I think I like the GH version the best so far. |

Are these Bwana painted or "factory" painted? I really like these guys, best Monster Factory figures so far. |

What was the retail on these little buggers and any way for us mere mortals to order 'em anyplace? |

Hey Biff, Any chance you could put up some pictures of the back of them? My two are somewhere over the Pacific right now, and I still have yet to see the back of these. Brian said there were supposed to be letters on the back that spelled S-T-E-V-E-N, but that's the only person I've heard that from. You mentioned that yours don't have the letters, and it got me curious to see what the back is like. |

That's a good question. I don't think I've even seen a picture of what the back of this guy looks like. Would be nice to see how his wings lay from the back. |

There's a few pics on Bwana's flickr where you can see the back of some of the Stevens. I don't see any letters though. |

I know the UK and France stop don't have the Stevens yet, and are still waiting for them to arrive. It sounds like the letters on the back were originally planned, but then delays kept it from happening. That's fine with me. Maybe I can be satisfied with owning only a few, instead of the entire set. |

I'm not attending any of the WTF event but I just got Bwana's book "Welcome To forest Island" and I can recommend it to any one who goes. There is a lot of paintings and comix in it (but no toys). The book in itself could have been better. Top Shelf tend to be sucky. S7 should handle stuff like this. Mook like would have kill. A great buy anyway. |

Nice seeing everybody tonight. I guess I need to bone up on my pencil fighting skills. Here's a few pictures for those who couldn't make it.  One for you guys looking for a rear view:  Seen here: Dustin Cantrell (midnight26man) taking a crack at Bwana's pencil in the preliminary pencil fight demo. Bonus ghost orb on Dustin's back.  Got hungry and had to go to Japantown mall for snacks. This pencil fight was still in a deadlock. Who won?
