Halloween Show 2008

So once again Seattle's Cafe Racer is going to host the Friend's of the Nib Halloween Art Show. Opening Night is October 24th from 6pm to till 10pm. Find more information in The Monocle a Halloween themed paper that highlights the illustrations of the Friends of the Nib.

This year for the show, I've taken to sculpting and assembling some creepy pieces. I'm posting some photos that I took with my phone. Once the better versions show up I'll post those too.

Toys and sculptures

This is "Tentacle Dad". Custom figure made from Harry Potter and a guy from Monsters Inc.

So last summer I really got into the idea of sculpting and making toys. Jumping on the bandwagon of custom and art toys. Here are a few pieces that actually worked. Some were gifts and some were just for my own pleasure. I hope to keep this up. But you know... there's only so many burners that I can put stuff on. Check out my Flickr site to read more about them.

This was a piece that I made for a fellow employee for Christmas.

These are the outside and inside views of a piece that I sculpted out of scuply based on Heather Walde's drawings.

This is a guy called "Bashitor". He was inspired by the monsters that hero's fight in Japanese live action shows.
