After your very first pledge you will receive a "thank You" print for being an amazing human being and supporting a staving artist! Each month I'll be creating a new print for my Patrons, signed by me along with an orange P to remind you of your amazing patronage! Next we have the monthly pin-back button. Each month I'll be sending out a different 1 inch pin-back button to give your outfit, messenger bag or what have you some "zazz". Then we have the Exclusive Patreon 3 inch collectible figure. Each month I'll be releasing a new color variant figure exclusively for my Patrons. Spruce up your collectors shelves with these amazing exclusive colorways and brag to all of your buddies about how you're one of the few fortunate to receive it ;) Also, there's all of the exclusive content you're not seeing, receiving exclusive producer credits on upcoming releases(printing your name on the box, whaaaaa?!?!) and the warm fuzzy feeling you get from supporting your favorite artist :) Anyway, I hope this finds you well, thank you for your time!

It's Been a While...

I feel like a lot of my blog posts start out that way. There's been a lot going on and I'm not not really sure where to start. At the moment I'm looking for help to get my Patreon(more info coming soon) off the ground so I can start funding the large projects you've all been waiting for and I have a new series of toys on the horizon. The series' name is "Shadows and Ghosts" and it will feature at least six 3 inch figures. I got the idea from a random ghost doodle I did.

The inspiration for the upcoming series

  Things that happened: I was part of an amazing sculpture show at the Clutter Gallery,  my grandpa died, I revised some policies in my shop, I went to CCACA, Started putting a fence up around my property, my cat became ill, started cleaning out my old shack in the hopes of turning it into a studio, was in another group show over at Makerbot, got my first stitches, got my moms truck stuck in a flooded wash, Started doing pen and ink drawrings, I found some baby birds, found some toads, found some spiders, and I rearranged my house. I'm sure there is a lot of other things I haven't mentioned that have happened, but whatevs. Here are some photos to help illustrate :)

My decrepit shed/soon to be studio

I got some friends together and we tore down all of the interior walls and dry wall. 

Me in my decrepit shed with a shadow looking over my shoulder

 I didn't have any photos of myself.

One of the shows I was in

I made the Fabulist and the Auditor for this show. It was amazing..., at least from what I could see of the photos.

Baby Birds

 While we were breaking down the inside of the shed we found two bird nests with little baby birds.

Audrey and Binks

 This is Audrey(left) and Binks(right). Binks had some crystals build up in his bladder due to our heavily mineralized well water. I had to take him to the vet to have them removed and leave him over night. It sucked.

A pen and ink with watercolor I did

One of the tarantulas I found

The wash where I where I got my moms truck stuck

 Driving home I hit this wash going a little too fast and water got all up in the engine making it stall. Usually when I take it slow it's traverse-able.

One of the toads I caught

The Fabulist and The Auditor

I made these guys out of ceramic for the Tenebrous Show at Clutter.

Shadowboss series complete!

Hi Everyone, I just finished my Shadowboss series! This was a lot of fun and I can't wait to get started on my next series, however I think I might do a stand-alone or two before...like conjoined twin SHADOWS!!!! You can pick them up from my shop http://stuffandwhatnot.bigcartel.com/ or click on the shop link on the top of the page. I hope you enjoy them and feel free to let me know what you think. Thanks

Gloom, Shadowboss, Sunny

Shadowboss

Sunny

Gloom and friends

I just finished a new toy. I call him Gloom. He's part of a set of three including the Shadow boss and another yet to be named. I'm pretty psyched about these guys. I hope you enjoy! You can find them all in my shop as soon as they are finished(hopefully by the evening of the 24th)

Also, here's bucky! He's part of a smaller set of 3. The other 2 will be made as soon as I can get my hands on some primer XD

News Everyone!

Hey all! I started customizing MUNNY's and it's been flipping amazing!  I've been having a lot of fun doing it. Here's  a pic of my Shadow Customs!

Anyway, I'd love to hear what you think, compliments and critiques always welcome :)
