 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
I didn't realize that Shig didn't actually design that header. Kudos to IV for fooling me into thinking it was! Having a header that you designed put onto a toy like that really would be really cool and seriously surreal. (I once had a submitted lego design featured as a full one page spread in a winter catalog, I'm imagining the shock must be similar!) Apologies about my ignorance in that regard. That said, it does stroke me a little the wrong way when I've been trying to get a nag since the so called unpained peanut butter geijins and have been entering every single time I can, With a few exceptions like the NAMBA nag as I missed the lottery window or lotteries that required attendance like the first NZOMBIE or the CCM disaster, and still haven't even gotten a response, while some people have literally won multiple NAG lotteries over a couple months. On top of that seeing Mishka collaborators with multiple nags is a little offputting and does smell a little like favoritism in the random distibution. But seriously, selling only to Asians?  Tell me what you're smoking so I can be really sure to avoid it.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
The last Nag lottery I won was for the Nagball. So I thought my Nag lotto wins have been over after that because I've entered all of them after that since then with no luck. So I was shocked to see that I got an winning e-mail reply back on this one. And boggles my mind that he even kept and remembered my header art. Surreal indeed. And as for pictures of my NZombie, well for now, I'm going to refer to Daimyo's pics. Seriously, amazing pics Daimyo. Clean, crisps and shows ever fleshy faucet of the zombie. The paintjob is a dark-red hue overall than the first Nzombie. The bald head on the new sculpt actually feels like a bald head, haha. And I was shocked to see that Shig sewed a silver thread through the zipper into the fur suit, so you had to cut it to unzip. Pretty crazy. Reminded me of what L'amour said back at NYCC about how Shig would staple his headers perfectly, and if not, would undo the staple and try again. And I think the paintjob on the NZombie and the Nagball definitely showcase his OCD on detail. Oh, and love the zombie's eyes. So real and hypnotizing.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
Congratulations IV, stoked to see your header on a Nag  And Shig painted Bootlegs?! Yes, can't wait to see the results! Hoping for a run of 13 one offs. Nagballs are among my favourite toys so Bootlegs to match seem too good to be true!

Stoked on the bootleg thing.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
Here's a close up shot of the NZOMBIE fur suit.  The zipper was sewn shut with thread. I took a video of me cutting the thread and unzipping it for the first time.... toy porn.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
When I first saw the latest NZombie outfit shots on Nag's page I thought of Lucy Mcrae... http://www.lucymcrae.net/home/http://www.lucyandbart.blogspot.com/Guf, any chance of seeing that video?

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
I will say this, it seems the people that praise NAG3 the most score the lotteries. I know a few quiet collectors that have never won a single lottery.The people that post tons of images and praise score multiple lotteries.

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
Great pics as usual, Dustin! I didn't notice the asshole last time around - placing that "Kiss me" stamp between a cut-off dick, a veiny scrotum and an asshole with maggots crawling towards it is definitely a "nice" extra-gross touch. Sewn-up zipper is also very cool... And Walter, congrats on that one-off header. Any idea how Shig obtained your artwork in a high enough resolution to print, though..? I'd feel a bit stalked!

 Re: A Nag Pa I Root
Yeah, the skin spots on the fur suit are leathery, and makes me wonder if Shig custom fashioned that. And boy, the fur suit is SOFT! I mean REAL soft! My dog also almost confused it for a stuffed toy.
