First Instincts

     With Gobon just having his most proper debut yet, this custom was best fitted for our next teaser. Personally, Gobon is my favorite character in terms of Matt and Michelle's universe. He was introduced to me in a way I can't really explain in just a small blurb. So prepare for a wave!

     A number of years ago I met one of my favorite artists to date, Jesse Moore. At this time, I was heavy into toys of all sorts. The world of toys became something that I obsessed over constantly. It was a period of time where so many things were inspiring me. I was a sponge trying to absorb all I could, and was always hungry for more! Through my day job, I was able to stumble across the bearded mans path.

      A few hours had passed and we were in a vortex of discussions about toys and art. During this event, I knew my life was about to drastically change. We are both nerds that have a lot in common, and immediately bonded. He later educated me about Glyos and Callgrim. I was so ecstatic to meet someone who created something I loved so much, and live down the street from me! I HAD to see more. Most of you who know Jesse, know that he is a very generous person. He had invited me to his home and showed me some of the toys that inspired him, along with toys he had made. I was marveling over his insane collection of vintage toys and current toys. My senses were totally nuked at this point, until I saw this meatball of a figure!

     After almost going into shock over possibly one of the most overwhelming experiences, something caught my eye up in Jesse's toy lair. It was a roundish, Doctor Robotnik - looking toy that broke the tension I had been having in the plastic museum. For about a minute I felt tranquil and started inspecting the figure. Jesse then explained to me that the creator of this figure started the whole Glyos System Series of toys. When I picked up that Gobon, I had a feeling of joy that is unmatched to this day!

      So, Gobon holds a very special place in my soul. He is still my one of my favorite toys to mess with. I love painting and customizing him, and was super excited to incorporate him in the Banimon Custom Corps. (Maybe even more than once...) Jesse opened my eyes to an incredible toy line and an equally incredible community, for this I give many thanks!

 This particular version is piloted by a Banigoth. A very rustic version that is a death machine to all in his path! More details of the release and more photos soon!

Can't You Smell That Smell?

NYCC 2012

The con is almost among us! I have been working adamantly on a variety of hand cast things for this convention for almost a year it seems. Hah. Lets get started on the awesomeness!

First, I want to personally give a huge thanks to Jesse Moore of Rawshark! My bearded buddy did an incredible painting for the various characters I have created. I wanted to back these things with some killer artwork. We have been working on various project both independently and together for awhile and we take a very deep appreciation when it comes to art. Without getting into to much bro on bro love, I just want to say thanks for contributing a excellent piece of artwork to go along with these weirdos! You are the best!

Secondly, I want to thank Matt Doughty of Onell . This other bearded lunatic has been an important role in my creativity as well as Mr. Moore. Matt has been an incredible and influential friend to me. He has taken the time out to shoot some awesome pictures of this stuff for me and I couldn't be happier with the results. He has a way of capturing things(especially toys) that is unlike most. I need to get myself a digital camera and takes notes. Haha. Once again thanks to both of my friends for helping with some crucial swaz!

Alrighty, NYCC is tomorrow and Onell's booth is going to be jam packed with some super talented people! I am contributing some pretty cool handcast heads and attachments compatible with the glyos system, as well as some sweet customs. Here we have a handful of what will be available this weekend! I will be at the Onell Design Booth Thursday, Friday, and possibly at some other times. Come on down to Booth#3216 and check out what I have been working on! I cant wait to see everyone out there, Its going to be a blast!

Moore Shop Pics

With Jesse's latest launch coming to a close, all I can say is WOW! This man has put his heart and soul into all of his projects, but this one was a bit more. Its been a bunch of late nights at the shop with him and I and also at the homestead. These took a little longer than anticipated but I personally think its worth the wait. I know I cant wait to put mine in my collection! There was a lot more added process with this assortment and I can say that I really dig the direction Jesse is taking his stuff. With every launch, he pushes his shit to the next level. Its incredible coming into this just a few years ago and seeing these advances in the toys themselves. Congrats bud! In other news, with all this pretty much done on my end, I will be returning to my swaz that I have going. Still need to get some more supplies but hopefully Ill be moving into the studio soon so I can get working on my sculpts and casting. Ventros is going to undergo some changes. I really cant wait to tell the whole story and have these guys finally be at the point where I am comfortable releasing them. Ill be posting more pics of him soon!

Wraiths, and Hexxers, and Beards, Oh my!

Its been a busy past few weeks for the bearded fella and I . Between getting my latest project underway and helping out Jesse, Ive been able to stay out of trouble. I am super stoked about his latest assortment of figures and vinyl. He has really brought his art to the next level and uses pvc and vinyl as his canvas. I cant convey how awesome the colors on these bad boys look. The pictures really do not do them enough justice. Ill keep on hammering away at what is left. There is a ton of work Jesse has incorporated in these beyond the figures themselves. I think everyone will be pleased once they are done. I know I cant wait to see the finished products! Now, Back to work!

Wraiths Drop This Friday 4/27

The much anticipated wraith figure(Or should I say Death Machine) will be available this Friday April 27th at 9pm EDT. Head over to callgrim.com to check for some more photos that will be appearing over the next few day. I cant convey how ecstatic I am about these!!! More good stuff a comin'!
