The Enemy is coming!

Been a long while since I posted here last. Things have been mad round here for the last year or so, but I am getting back in the saddle.
A while back now I decided I wanted to do my version of Vac-Man and possibly some of the good guys from said toy line, and with that I got started.


Initial concept head sketch:


Sculpting began:


On to the body and sketching as I tinkered:


Then the sculpt was ready to go a while later:




And finally on to the cast:



Honestly I spent a long time just trying to decide whether or not to cast him at all, this weekend I went for it. Vac-Man was one of my favorites, and that holds true today.
Will be playing with colors and generally getting a handle on all that soon.

For those unfamiliar with Vac-Man, the figure came with a "vacuum pump" with which you sucked the air out of the body, and the material inside gave him a horrid bumpy/bubbly skin texture, which also allowed for stretching and poses that held until you pressed the switch to refill him with air.

Cast in a vibrant orange and painted with acrylics and chalks, this version is dubbed the classic colorway.


Coming this Sunday Oct 27th at 6pm pacific time! The enemy returns. Classic edition painted run only 5 to be available at this time!
There will be additional one offs and what not so keep your eyes peeled!
More info tomorrow including pictures and price!

He-man's trophy


Seeing as I just got this back from the ceramic shop I made this for, I decided to put it up here. Don't have space to keep everything I make! :mrgreen:
It is a wall hanging ceramic clay piece that I sculpted, modified, and painted as a "Halloween" decoration for the shop. Just a hair over 7 1/2" high by 5" wide.
I painted it with acrylic and chalk, finished with multiple coats of clear to protect it.
This is an original piece and will not be replicated, it is not often I sell original sculpts.

For international orders only!

One of many

Hey there folks long time dead over here but coming back,


I've found myself using social sites such as Facebook,twitter, Google +, etc.. to do most of the sharing of news. Most of what I do also tends to be posted in a number of forums, October toys,skullbrain,little rubber guys, etc.. and what time I have left between all that and my work in itself I use my webpage www.papagrimtoys.com

Now that the air is clear as to the reason for my absence on blogger here's a quick blurb about one of many commission projects currently gracing my sculpting table. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aside from projects that I am currently not allowed to show I still have multiple projects on my table. One of which is a very fun sculpt for an up and coming punk type magazine.
It is Elephant Nosebleed, I was lucky enough to not only be sculpting their piece but doing the design work and the casting for said piece. Right now we are pretty far from done on their sculpt although I have made many changes here is the most recent WIP picture. As well here is the design.

All in all a very fun project.
You can (and very well should) hit the Elephant nosebleed Facebook page and keep your eyes peeled for some mind melting publications. :Click Here:
