Last month Xmoor Studios ran a Galtow fan art contest on the Herotalk Forum hosted by the always uber gracious Omar (at Blacksuperhero.com). This was the winning entry submitted by Quasilucid (www.quasilucid.com - check him out - this guy is crazy talented!). There were a bunch of outstanding entries from the other mega talented forum members (thanks guys) but this entry by Quasilucid knocked Rob G. and me out.



We have another contest coming up soon that will be open to everybody all over so keep ya eyes peeled!!!

More old stuff. Couple of DC character bust studies.

I was cleaning up the hard drive and found a few images of some old sculpts I thought I'd start posting up for fun. This is a vampire bust I never got to finish.

I started posting up a step by step on how I sculpted up the Galtow Warrior bust on my Deviantart site: http://arthammer.deviantart.com/ in the SCRAPS section. Here's a 2D image of the Keylon Jakes character from the Galtow comic book series written and created by Robert Garrett and illustrated by the uber talented Patrick David (issues 1 and 2 only):

Above is the cover to issue one. Robert Garrett and I will be dropping isue 3 with an all new art team very soon. We also put out a limited full color ten page teaser that's currently on sale at MidTown Comics and a few other select comic shops around NYC.
Here's a pic of the finished bust featured in the step by step:

Keep an eye out soon for the big art contest when we'll be giving away a "special version" of this bust to the winner. Wanna win one?

Vinyl explosion!!!
This is where all the toy sculpt magic happens...not much eh? And yeah - I still use sculpey on some projects...but toy wax is how everything is finished before resin castings are made... Just my little sculpting corner with "out the door" projects in various stages. Got a nice lineup dropping early 2007. I'm dying to see all the packaging for these guys n gals...it's such a pleasure to work with all these talented artists and pop their concepts off the paper.



Been under the weather a bit so I'll get to more posting soon as I heal up.
