still plugging away. playing toymaker is fun, but deciding the how, when, and if's of bidness not so much. gives me a whole new respect for people grinding out their daily bread with toys!

I am thinking i'll sell these in 2 "packs", though I have no packaging messing with putting them up in 3-4 waves of 5x2 packs at a time. not sure how long between releases, but a couple weeks or a month? toyed with holding up release until the previous wave sells out, but not being sure if anything will sell makes that sound silly. final groupings may change as new fodder rolls in, but for now 1-3 are pictured left to right.

no sculpting or paint yet...

just joe characters


who is the brawliest....

I have a couple nights worth of pics to post. i made a box insert to keep them from damage out of a kong box. it holds 30 rumblers. i mostly have the sculpting all done. also most accessories picked out. next will be some grinding and then paint!




the demons hair


pipers hair



had to sculpt the back of big franks head to fill in the slot (also did killer clown)


some bracelets for ozzy made from brass wire (bangles) and costume jewelry ear ring



I had to sculpt around the venom neck hole (blew out with dremel) so I did some chest sculpting too. thinking of cutting legs shorter, but the tail is perfect at this height


sculpted furr britches on my motu duo. hemans shield was cut from mcdonalds battlecat saddle. skeletors staff is a kabob stick covered w/heat shrink with sculpted rams skull


tmnt? si for sword...maybe


rough sculpt of what I hope to grind into a block hammer for roadpig


demon platform boots. on the fence on weather these are done. more sculpt? or grind?



my extra/left over miliput


army reserves! still 1 lot coming!


heads in reserve...

this ring is the 90's 3" figure one with rumbler posts and b-n-b ropes. the guard railing is fence/gates from small plastic animal brittains iirc

here are the mini (smaller than rumblers) I posted about . I got the heads on very solid with great movement using 4 layers of heat shrink.

in some action shots
