Well, just from looking at it, I see desaturation, lens flares, liquify, perhaps some burning and dodging, blurring, lots of levels and curves work, along with masks and, I'm sure, other filters.
Friends, its not the tools or process that is so amazing here (though the work is beautifully done), it is the conception, the inspiration. You can't get that in a software package.
I agree 100%. I just have such an interest in this sort of photography but i know shit all about photoshop and i've begun learning how to properly take shots with a SLR. I was thinking of taking a course and getting some books but i'd love to see how these photos were done. That's how i get into something. I learn a few workflows from other people to play around with and get my feet wet then learn the rest on my own.

Those last two photos of Squirm remind me of the famous 1940s Nessie photo (which was outed as a hoax?).
Really creative stuff. This makes me want to go home and shoot some photos. Too bad I have many more hours at work.

Nuts, what hasn't been said before? Great stuff, my favs are the astro boy and ghost ripping his head off. The Squirms are also really cool too.

I have a small problem with Ikageruge. This toy really does not
hold well upright. Are all the versions like that or it
is a defect on mine?

tan-ki, dont worry about the Ikageruge. Most of the Rainbow figures have a hard time standing.
And your photography, it is amazing and inspiring to say the least. I would love also to know what you are using to get these effects. Keep posting!

Beautiful shots. The Tofu w/ the Bee shots are amazing! The Squirm looks so menacing.
