“Dragon Power” Elite Division Warrior #1 – NYCC 2010 Custom Collaboration Mad*L

On 27, Sep 2010 | No Comments | In Artwork, Mad*L, NYCC, Shows | By aw177

Here’s a peek at one of my customs for New York Comic Con 2010 – “Dragon Power” Elite Division Warrior #1! This is a custom 5″ Mad*L collaboration between Kevin Gosselin and myself. Kevin is an excellent sculptor/artist and I was really happy to have been able to work with him on this figure. Kevin did all the sculpting to resemble an ancient Chinese (terra cotta) warrior, while I did all the artwork. Kevin sculpted it to fit my art style and allowed much surface area for me to do my thing while still maintaining the look of a warrior.

Background story and more details/pics/pricing to come. This will be on display/for sale at the Tenacious Toys booth at NYCC 2010, with a signing/sketch session by me on Saturday, October 9 at 1pm EST.

AW177 Artsprojekt Circuits Black T-Shirts

On 27, Sep 2010 | No Comments | In Products | By aw177

A few weeks ago I ordered and received one of my designed Artsprojekt products, “Circuit Death 3D” on a white t-shirt. It was nice but wanted to see how it would look like on a black t-shirt, so I ordered another one on black and a “Circuit Harmony” designed t-shirt as well. They both finally came in, and I’m really happy with them! I may be wearing both of them at New York Comic Con 2010 this year, so if you want to find me, now you know how!

Also, the “AW177” on the back is a giveaway as well!

AW177 Artsprojekt “Circuit Death 3D” T-Shirt

On 09, Sep 2010 | No Comments | In Products | By aw177

For those that don’t know, I was invited to join Artsprojekt a year ago, and I finally went ahead and ordered one of my designed t-shirts to wear at New York Comic Con 2010. I decided to get a plain white T w/ my “Circuit Death 3D” design on it. It came in and I think Artsprojekt did a good job w/ it. Check it out:

AW177 “Koi Blossom” Jouwe!

On 07, Sep 2010 | No Comments | In Artwork, Other, Shows | By aw177

Ok finally got a chance to snap a few pics of my custom “Koi Blossom” Jouwe figure for the Jouwe group custom show at Toy Art Gallery (TAG) located at 737 Seward St. #1, Los Angeles, CA 90038 (www.toyartgallery.com).

Opening reception: October 1, 7-10pm, runs from October 1 – 29, 2010.

The Jouwe figure is great and I didn’t want to modify the form of it; I wanted to enhance it and give it a more traditional Asian pattern. The Jouwe form looks like a tough yet cute little rhino guy, so wanted to give it a more ‘love’ feel to it – hence why I chose the Koi.

AW177 MiniCards & Postcard!

On 07, Sep 2010 | No Comments | In Products | By aw177

Decided to order some minicards as my business card to give out to peeps who want my contact info, as well as create a small piece of art that people can put up or whatever to enjoy. I decided to get some minicards done, half the size of a regular business card, since they are pretty cool, unique and different than other business cards out there!
