What if Skrulls infiltrated your world? What if?

Black and white teaser for the 3rd Galtow poster featuring Jiya I did for Xmoor Studios with Jesse Heagy on the colors...color version coming soon. Hopefully we'll have some full color prints of all 3 posters for sale at the big NYC con in April this year.

A little sneak peek of a something I'm working on for John Jennings Hole pin-up book for charity. I'll post all the info and the full image soon.

Another Goldmane Entertainment project off full blast - From the Immortal Kiss comic book series written and created by Dion Floyd and produced by GIstudios comes the Mikhail Vladimir resin statue and base. Mikahail stands at 8 inches and can be purcased either as a full prepaint or in a solid colored resin cast. This will be a very very limited run and more info can be found here on the GIstudios website:

I'll add more full color pictures very soon so stay tuned!

Been drawing more lately. Keeps the sculpting fresh going to 2D art every now and then. Been also trying my hand at computer coloring too.

Neptoon Studios did a interview with a roving reporter for Toybreak in episode #24 featured here on the Toysrevil blog (thanks again Andy - nice work on the Neptoon only edit!):

They actually show the fully painted Crush and Harry designer vinyl toy prototypes I did for them together for the first time. Did I hear them say 3 colorways for Harry??? Niiice...Thanks for the mention Todd and Mark...I enjoy working with those megatalented guys...15 years each in animation?! Yowza! I could only muster up 5 max...

On another few notes:

Rumor has it there's some wicked looking merchandise in the works...hmmmm....

There's also new hot toy forum in town run by a few pals of mine called Vinyl Toy Freaks:

Matt Beers was gracious enough to give me a artist corner over there where I'll be posting all kinds of cool stuff AND will be starting up a contest where a new vinyl toy that I sculpted up will be given away real soon. Swing by join up and drop some posts - they have a really cool and supportive group there - and they love toys...

They have some DIY's too...

The Revenant bust I produced for Dave Flora's Tales of the Revenant/Ghost Zero has been reviewed in this month's Amazing Figure Modeller #40. Dave was kind enough to put this little promo together and send it to me since I can't seem to find the AFM mag on sale near me. See more of Dave's awesome Ghost Zero goodness here:

The unpainted grey resin garage kit version of this bust is still available ($65 plus S&H) and we'll be offering a limited run of fully painted verions (below) of the bust with the release of Dave new printed comic book series.

Some quick turnaround art of Lord Wu Reymos for Xmoor Studios Galtow property.

Color pics up next! I brought in the talented paintmaster Andrew Scribner (painted the Crush toy prototype too) to sling the paint on this bad boy.

Harriet Carney of Carnival Cartoons takes fourth place for best sculpting in PlasticandPlush's 2007 Toy Awards!!! http://www.plasticandplush.com/plasticandplush/2007_toy_awards/index.html

Just want to say congrats to Jared Deal and Garnet Syberg Olsen (two awesome artists and designers - you guys are on a roll!!!). Thanks also goes out to Plasticandplush for including the Carney toys in their awards and to Erick Scarecrow for overseas project management. That's all you get because my writers are on strike too...no red carpet coverage either...sorry.

Plastic&Plush's Designer Toy Fix Episode 3 features a chat with Erick Scarecrow of ESC-Toy (with an update on the Still Depressed sculpt...) Thanks for the props E!!! The Still Depressed sculpt was quite a challenging project for me to say the least (when you see it in the flesh you'll see why). I had a great time working with Scarecrow on this project - the kid is a wicked designer with some cool stuff lined up for this year.

Got the damn links working right finally.....

I use several painters for all my projects. Every now and then I'll send an older piece out and see what the painters can come up with. Warming up some stuff for 2008...it's going to be a interesting year and I hope I can get most of what's planned off the ground....

My Harry Weinerski sculpt for Neptoon Studios is finally finished. Resins and full color (just been approved!) images next. This designer vinyl toy series is shaping up to be very interesting. Character design work by the uber talented Todd Kaufman -

Couple of web banners for Xmoor Studios...

Welcome to the Official GoldMane Entertainment News blog!!!
Starting today I will be using this blog page for all news updates and info for my company GoldMane Entertainment (and Xmoor Studios!).

The NEWS button on my Goldmane website will send everyone here starting asap - this is a much faster way for me to add information since I have so many things planned for 2008 and want to post up sneak peeks of works in progress, tutorials, 2D artworks, shows I'll be attending and all my Xmoor Studios (indie comic book publishing company that publishes Galtow) endeavours as well. There will hopefully be some big changes and happenings for GoldMane in 2008 (and Xmoor Studios too!)

Just want to say thanks to all my friends, clients, associates and family for their unwavering support in 2007. It was a interesting year for me as I got to break out and do some of the things
I always wanted to do artistically for a very long time now.
On that, I'll close with my favorite phrase:

"Passion...will build you bridges from nowhere - to somewhere..."
END

The Crush vinyl toy is finally here!!!
...aaand....he has a friend (Harry) in progress on the Neptoon Studios blog:

Lord Wu Reymos poster tease for the Galtow comic book series...coming soon.

My second art jam over at DWdeathwish's page on Deviantart. I did the Yellow Jacket (blue arrow). I have one more jam I did based on SpiderMan's villian's that I'll post soon as it goes up. Art jams are fun when you have time for them.

Almost done...
