reminder:
I kind of see it as him holding up his hands signalling to his eagle(?) buddy, who is swooping down to take him on his back and head off together on an adventure.

Nice shot Grace, awesome background!

Thank you! The graphics were free, and from Visipix. You can go to the actual URL and download the Hiroshige lithograph of the eagle print yourself, and make your own stuff, custom sized . Go to the "Whatever" section, and see my topic for free graphics and fonts. The URL is a sample link I cited. There are so many beautiful Japanese print files as public domain. Have fun!

Thanks for the tip!

Which one did you get? I'm sad I missed this great release

Shelf whim.

Oh, wasn't that your custom from [not so] way back in the early GS days? I am sure you must have posted a few pics of him in the past, but I guess I just like him so much it comes as a great surprise to make me smile every time! I do so like it, and an inspired choice, sir. I wish we could have seen more of these customs tbh, but I feel like a lot of them disappeared into collections never to be brought to SB's inner light. But anyways, digressions. You've got a real winner there D. You have earned my suberb subtle nod of approval.

Love it!

You called it, pH - he's my guy from the Create Your Own funsies from waaaaay back. Here he is with some friends, before they took that flight to Arizona:

And yes, you've expressed a certain appreciation for him before:

The create-your-own monster still sticks in my mind vividly. One of the best projects, and complete fan-service to all those GS fans out there. Like you, I long to see all the various designs we never got to see yet. I think the inevitable delays with a custom project of this massive scale put it out of people's minds, which is a shame. But I will forever love that Ultra David, and I will continue to profess my love from across the rooftops. I will not be silenced!!!

Oh weird! Just did a double take on your photo. Is that really a 3-eyed toy, or Photoshop?

Photoshop

^ Love it!
Black & Blue:

Is that a pile of roadside tar & asphalt? Nuts man.

Ha, yeah that pile of asphalt has all cured sitting there in a lot, so the whole thing is one big clump! Goji didn't like it, he couldn't dig around...

Responsible roadworks, you got to love it. Still, I guess ultimately it ended up working for a nice photo, Goji on the lava flow from his island volcano.

Hey SBers, hope all is well. I have been busy with school, I hope you are all getting on well without me I had some pms come from out of the woodwork recently, and figured since I was checking in I should post these pics I've been meaning to, which were the last toy shots I have had the opportunity to take (I am living away from my collection atm). Last term a cognitive neuroscience course I took interestingly had an open ended extra credit art project. I decided to do a toy arrangement inspired by the themes of the class. I don't think my professor really "got it", but I got my points so I suppose that's what matters

I feel all damp in my no-no zone.

Great to see you, Chase! Thanks for stopping by.

Dang! Awesome shots and a beautiful arrangement

So happy to have you back, and posting! I know well the school preoccupations.

Superb glowie family, as always Chase. You pictures never disappoint. Love the Sunguts gorilla, always was hunting that fella. My standout from the lineup is Goro takin' 'er easy on his side. Oh that silly monkey! Love the project idea man, thanks!

^^ As always, quality toy line-up! Nice and varied.

YOGA!!!
