Just gotta Kick Start it

Hello Art Fans!
Getting ready for Dragon Con has been particularly difficult this year due to some setbacks. Luckily I was introduced to this great site called kickstarter that allows people to get assistance with their projects. This is the first time I have tried anything like this so we’ll see how it goes.
Here’s my kickstarter link http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1297723766/dragon-con-is-calling
I’d like to Thank everyone before hand for all your support.


Check out http://www.kickstarter.com/ to see what it’s all about.

Thank you for reading!

I have been sooooo bad about getting my art completed for Dragon Con. Life has just been so hectic lately but the show is only 2 months away so no time to waste. I have a stack of unfinished Myxies just waiting to be clothed and once they are it’s off to the Photographer and then I should have some pictures to post for you lovely art Fans. Alright back to work.

Thanks for reading!

Death waits for no Man…cause She is impatient.

























The first day I spent 7 hours sculpting a body (not including the head) that is about 6-7 inches sitting down, about 2 and a half times the size of any of my Myxies. Because the body was larger then what I normally work with I had to bake it in sections. Started with the torso and after baking it for about an hour I added the hands and feet, then baked it for another 2 hours. The second day I spent 6 hours sculpting skulls, and let me tell you that was hard. Sculpting a face is much different then sculpting a skull, it took me few tries before I got it to look right. Now that I’ve told you about some of the work that has gone into it, I will tell you what the heck I’m talking about…
So I have this picture I did about hmmmm 4 years ago, it’s of a Female Grim Reaper. I call it She Death…real original I know :P Anyway I liked the concept so much I decided to turn it into a sculpture. The picture has Death leaning against a pile of skulls, unfortunately I couldn’t get her to stand cause she is heavy and my oven is small so her head would’ve touched the top so I have her sitting on a pile of skulls. She will be one of my Dragon Con Gallery pieces and I can’t wait to show her to everyone. She is far from being done but I do have a few progress/detail pictures to show you. What do you think so far?


P.S. sorry about all the naked Myxies...I haven't had time to put clothes on them yet, SHAMEFUL!!! LOL :P
