Bust: Harvey Painted!

A paint-up of one of the other heads, first time with a new technique but a whole lot of fun!

More sculptures over here!

Bust: Harvey

Another head from Swaybox, probably my favorite of the group.

You can see my sculpture portfolio over here.

Bust: Mr. Band

More heads!

I was lucky enough to have my tumblr post of this guy featured on tumblr radar!

Thanks again for being so nice internet!

Bust: Mr. Del Rio

Another quick maquette from work.

I really like the gif as a desplay format for a turntable.

PHASE THREE: Continued

Log:  The experiment appears to be a success, production is moving along swimmingly.  Clones are being generated with fewer and fewer abnormalities.  Everything seems to be under control.  They appear, however, to be organizing themselves.  They no longer seem happy with being kept in cabinets and boxes.  I fear if their numbers continue to grow, violent revolt might be imminent.

They seem to have noticed me... I'll report back later.

Over and out.

PHASE THREE

Log:  Upon initial investigation clone 001 appears to be genetically stable.  Minor imperfections, bubbles in the code, will be easily smoothed and corrected for future efforts.  The creature will be left time to climatize, whereupon experiments in pigmentation may commence.  Ears to the ground folks, this might just work.

A shot from the demoulding of the original specimen:

Oh and why not, here's some sketchbook:

So I was coloring these in on the airplane.  The stewardess came by and I'm pretty sure she thought I was coloring a coloring book at first.

I just want you to know that we're all counting on you,  good luck.

Phase One: Master

Phase one has been initiated, nearing completion.

Phase two will begin shortly.  More on that as the situation progresses.

Assorted Additions

So! I did some re-shooting of the Sudden! Now with a little time laps-ey thingy! I've recorded it a couple times now, but I'm honestly still not sure how to get it not to look awful with the camera I have (it comes out all noisy (not sound noise, the other kind) and weird), so it might be a little before I manage to get that in order. Anyway, without further ado:

Annnnnnnnnnnd, I haven't posted in a little bit, sand I know re-shooting the Sudden doesn't really qualify as new content, so here are some train doodles of the important things in life: spacemen and little monsters.

Part of a Something

So I have a thing that I have been working on for what has become a very very long time.  It has traveled between multiple states, at times been a shelf, has moving parts and I'm almost done.  I have done my best to contain my excitement about what is, in fact a really really stupid joke, but am no longer able.  As such I have decided to take a bunch of pictures that don't really show or explain much of anything and post them here.

Sorry.

I mean, come on, what is that?  Seriously.

Oh and please don't go getting excited or anything, I promise you this is all very very stupid in the end.  I don't think anyone could possibly enjoy this as much as I do myself.

Really, deepest apologies.

Without wax,
Rob.

Cast No. 01!

One more snippet:

annnnnd here is the plenary plaster person from the previous post.

And a couple details:

And that's it for this particular venture.  It may receive a patina in the future, though I'm thinking it's unlikely that it'll be anything other than more white.  I also might post some of the shots of the clay iteration at some point.

More on the way, the person in process right now is looking promising, and there's plenty of sketchbook to share.

Yes.

More Figure Sculpture

So, here's some more of this. We have the third attempt, which is more of a sketch - as the time allotted was much shorter than all the others.

My favorite parts are as follows: I like the way his hand drops off into the lump he's sitting on. I also like that he looks like a very stern, naked, news anchor.

More soon, really.

Figure Sculpture!

So I've wanted to try figure sculpting for some time now but have never had both the time and the opportunity at the same time. Recently however things have come together and I'm sculpting from a real live human at the Art Students League of New York, and it's fantastic! These here are shots of my second attempt, which could use some more work, but the pose is over - on to better things.

And I was wondering if I could get some opinions on this: I like the academic work I do, and I like to share it, but it feels pretty mismatched with the general content that I have here... how do the humans that look at my business feel about it? Do you guys like the more academic "Look! I'm painting!" "Look! I'm sculpting!" is it preferable that it go by the wayside, or maybe somewhere else. Thoughts? Opinions? Irrelevant statements?

Depending on the consensus, there will be more paintings and sculptures shortly.

Oh, and just for kicks here's a couple shots of attempt No. 01 at this whole figure sculpting bit:

That's all for now.
