Soooo stoked !

In the end he is a just a tad over 13 inches. His width is exactly that of a 2 headed but just his head is taller. So on a shelf it works well, behind him you can still see him :)

I'm in love and cant wait to paint this tonightttttttt

And the vinyl is thick as hell, super duper solid. Even with his arms straight out it stands well, a little wobble if you tap it but it corrects itself super quick with no worries of a dive.

I've just been sitting here studying them and the quality of the translation is just amazing. I just cant get over how well these came out.

Its impossible to tell but there was just a little GID powder that got mixed in with the black. So there are this glow in the dark smoke going through them. Its not marble but you can definitely tell its in the vinyl. I dont know if this can be replicated, and I'm stoked that I was lucky enough to have these as the protos.

Well I guess you can see it somewhat here is that second pic, all the light areas glow, its crazy looking :)

Ricky VELOCITRON sculpted this skull that is on its side :)

Actually, this entire figure started out as being sculpted by Ricky. Ricky got the proportions of the upper body and lower body started. Then was shipped off to me where I created the arms legs head and added to what Ricky started. Sadly the fur he sculpted broke off and I had to resculpt all of it, I was able to salvage the skull though and that made it into production. I know some think skulls are played but it serves a purpose and you will see in time. Its also not in your face and you can see it unless you look for it.

This entire figure has been 2 years in the making !

He is more than just a toy to me, its a major accomplishment as an artist. This guy is 100% a dream that actually came to reality and as I sit here its still hard to believe its real and that I can go paint it.

If anyone says you cant make your own toy don't believe them, I'm living proof it can happen. Just dont take no for an answer and never give up.
