Not a bad grouping of artists- missing one though. Heh heh heh. (What? I'm allowed to vent.) My good friend, Sket-One has a few really good Dunnies this series. The Dok-A steam punk inspired design was also interesting. The chases are a pretty interesting set, but not something i'm gonna scour ebay for. Either way, it's not bad. Have fun or customize them.<br /><br />What did you think I was gonna do with the ones I don't keep?!<br /><br />>:)chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-64562538120631560042010-08-20T01:49:00.002-04:002010-08-22T13:55:14.874-04:00new site coming soon<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGdy5Mym-raw1pKUmVfb7gSi21Hl68JXF-SE_PKa9o0sTwEgwJ5QOZOzV4WAz_8Fq7P8oERPDUbaUOJR-Hz5U9I1_oVg3qOCIY-UKLrLb-Zm7GeseOwGizpFKqIDd7wh6B5rNK1Dvp15U/s1600/1c7b38e0-5ffe-41a3-a289-9ccfba1e8523.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGdy5Mym-raw1pKUmVfb7gSi21Hl68JXF-SE_PKa9o0sTwEgwJ5QOZOzV4WAz_8Fq7P8oERPDUbaUOJR-Hz5U9I1_oVg3qOCIY-UKLrLb-Zm7GeseOwGizpFKqIDd7wh6B5rNK1Dvp15U/s400/1c7b38e0-5ffe-41a3-a289-9ccfba1e8523.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5508294290252371426" /></a><br /><br />OK, new site coming soon. this will be what? my 5th attempt? heh!chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-50138867588610120552010-07-09T21:16:00.002-04:002010-07-09T21:30:12.088-04:00Icanhas Mekaneko?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjEQ-cgZjcVN6bMaYE_EIvUiUfHfyhILaVranyh-5hu64nRwCmZoZ-ic1jZyaKyH1Uw-HbK8RL0wvSnSUAgIjF1KeC6zmNcgqcp4O8zhx5iIQFUkMSrbIO2FVbRJwvn4wwsN5EsWV9YAU/s1600/m04_410.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjEQ-cgZjcVN6bMaYE_EIvUiUfHfyhILaVranyh-5hu64nRwCmZoZ-ic1jZyaKyH1Uw-HbK8RL0wvSnSUAgIjF1KeC6zmNcgqcp4O8zhx5iIQFUkMSrbIO2FVbRJwvn4wwsN5EsWV9YAU/s400/m04_410.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5492080575495359090" /></a><br />Ok, this is pretty awesome.

If you're familiar with some of my customs, you can see why I love this. It arrived today in an awesome box. Seriously, the packaging is great. It came with a booklet that featured artwork from Matteo de Longis and an awesome sticker sheet.

I've been told that the base figure is from Disney's Vinylmation line. I love Disney but woah. Someone pointed out that this might be a custom figure, so I'm not sure. I'll have to look into this...<div><br />UPDATE: It was a custom.

I know what you're gonna say, but HONESTLY, I'm not PLAYING WITH A BARBIE DOLL. I swear! This is one of <a href="http://www.hottoys.com.hk/" target="_blank">HOT TOYS</a>' Truetype Figures. I've been into HOT TOYS since their release of Appleseed's Deunan Knute and Briareos. I have to say that in this area of 1/6 scale figures, they really kicked Medicom and Takara's asses. Their attention to detail is one of their selling points. This Truetype figure is a "blank" figure, ready for customization. I figured I'd give it a shot and see what I can come up with. I'm not 100% fond of the face and the skin tone is darker than advertised- something I've noticed with their toys. I also don't like the fact I can see the joints. It seems less realistic but I suppose it works better under clothing. Yet another project for me to not finish! :)<br /><br />OK so I brushed its hair with a small comb to straighten it... WHAT? Stop looking at me like that!chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-53296734459711298362010-02-03T17:38:00.005-05:002010-02-13T21:18:35.688-05:00Knuckle up.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-U9snAGvNkT7NiGD0eP88qqdFeWae-GM3pmVJximWL75eTA6S_9f9I4o4ZnAtai6QTpaCpgjwbQok5JHaF02cTCvloVM6f-M2rCgm_SogSV9S4hH126D9S2krxa1ZEduckMQhUllZpG0/s1600-h/kbearfinal22.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 285px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-U9snAGvNkT7NiGD0eP88qqdFeWae-GM3pmVJximWL75eTA6S_9f9I4o4ZnAtai6QTpaCpgjwbQok5JHaF02cTCvloVM6f-M2rCgm_SogSV9S4hH126D9S2krxa1ZEduckMQhUllZpG0/s400/kbearfinal22.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434150490166446418" /></a>I've always loved Touma's Knuckle Bear.

They're AWESOME. I love the design. I don't know why but they have a Daft Punk vibe, even though they don't look anything like the pair. I like Fellastar (Orange) more but I really dig the eyes of Megastar (Pink/Purple). I actually got a little confused and thought the Megastar from Artoyz was different and bought one from them but apparently it's the same as the one from 123Klan's store. Various posts and blogs on the internet made it seem like it's different. Ah well. This is what I get for jumping the gun. GUESS one's gonna get customized. AW YEAAAHHHHH...<br /><br />Oh yeah. If you buy them directly from 123Klan, you get some awesome stickers and the boxes are signed by Scien and Klor!chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-21910722397437821582010-01-27T20:13:00.007-05:002010-02-03T01:44:30.181-05:00New Year and a few things.hi all,<br /><br />sorry for not posting in a while. i have a few too many things going on at the same time. <br /><br />i was going to have a new site but within a day or two of acquiring a server, it was hacked badly. rather than waste time, i decided to finish my site first before i dump the data onto a server. so for now, i still have my blog. many apologies.<br /><br />munnyworld was a smash hit! my custom raffy and friends sold during the first day within five minutes of opening. guess who bought it???

Humidity is a real pain in the ass when it comes to painting cars, models or custom designer toys. I painted a custom FULCRAIM a few months back and I checked the humidity, careful to make sure it dries in a dry environment. Still, somehow months later, it still manages to FUCK UP and piss me off. It appears that the clear coat started to stick to each other, despite having been properly dried and finished. I don't know anymore. I've noticed that this doesn't happen when I use a flat clear coat, but very frequent when I use a glossy coat. <br /><br />I think I will just not paint in the summer season anymore. <br /><br />GODDAMMIT. <br /><br />>:Ochuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-73796414178273406412009-06-20T20:55:00.004-04:002009-06-21T07:01:00.863-04:00Dinner is served, sir...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV0CgyeGxqf_v4MkrF9HqaulrDAjONquXGUx8AKMtNcqNUu-IGsrjc1ojKVzjvhH4BhB-ZryVwhnIh93n9aEgAmLerkZpkmpd-o7WNJ1izE5kLq27p0SfUjT7wgm8x1gXjnEKykb7V5yU/s1600-h/3642687277_f82b8888d6.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV0CgyeGxqf_v4MkrF9HqaulrDAjONquXGUx8AKMtNcqNUu-IGsrjc1ojKVzjvhH4BhB-ZryVwhnIh93n9aEgAmLerkZpkmpd-o7WNJ1izE5kLq27p0SfUjT7wgm8x1gXjnEKykb7V5yU/s400/3642687277_f82b8888d6.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349733624380251042" /></a>Found this on Flickr...

I admit I never fully read the original graphic novel or comics. I won't deny that my interest in the WATCHMEN was from the film's first trailer I saw just before The DARK KNIGHT. I have to say that I like the movie's look more than the graphic novel's. Some hardcore fans like Adam Hughes might disagree, but if you take it for what it is, they look great! I was really excited about Nite Owl II's more modern costume and of course who didn't like Silk Spectre II's black and yellow latex costume?! From what I did read about the graphic novel, I found the movie surprisingly close. I was hoping to see the giant alien monster from the comics, but was not surprised when they changed it to a more plausible type of attack. <br /><br />I swear men can be such goddam fucking homophobes. WHO CARES if you can see DR. MANHATTAN'S GENITALS?! WAH WAH WAH "I SAW HIS DICK" is all I heard when I was walking out. WHO CARES?! He was drawn that way in the comic. I like to think that he was modeled after Greek/Renaissance sculptures. I can see their genitals. AND SO WHAT? If you were BLASTED BEYOLD normal reality, and you start becoming less and less human, wouldn't you not give a shit about clothes? FUCKING RETARDED MEATHEAD HOMOPHOBES, ALL OF YOU. FUCK YOU.<br /><br />I liked WATCHMEN. I think I might see it again. It was certainly inspiring- I want to be a superhero. Maybe not. Ah well...<br /><br />Though, I was glad she kept the boots on... >:)chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-33441293234718907182009-02-19T12:08:00.001-05:002009-02-19T12:10:20.789-05:00Vid and Pics<object width="400" height="225"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=3205072&server=vimeo.com&show_title=0&show_byline=0&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1"><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=3205072&server=vimeo.com&show_title=0&show_byline=0&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="400" height="225"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://vimeo.com/3205072">Come Meet the Artists at Kidrobot NY</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/krtv">Kidrobot</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com/">Vimeo</a>.<br /><br />Also check out the pics <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/kidrobotrules/sets/72157613279145246/" target="_blank">here</a>chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-9109885038634956692009-02-07T15:00:00.009-05:002009-02-10T11:03:10.757-05:00A night of firsts for me...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3525/3263098929_a085ca3e70.jpg?v=0 target=_blank"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 500px; height: 375px;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3525/3263098929_a085ca3e70.jpg?v=0" border="0" alt="" /></a>Image from Grownkidz.blogspot.com<br /><br />Sorry for the late entry about this. I've been bogged down by deadlines and other stuff. <br /><br />I attended Kidrobot's Meet the Artists party on Friday night, 2/6/09 after NYCC along with heavy hitters, Huck Gee, Sket-One, MadL, Shane Jessup, Pon and other Kidrobot rockstars. It was super crowded and the line just wrapped around the block. I had my first Kidrobot video interview with Maze, who was really cool. I was surprised he knew about the Sharky I did for Toyqube's 4th Anniversary show. Shane Jessup was really great- I have to admit I was rather nervous about the whole thing but he gave me some awesome advice. <br /><br />So with guys like Huck and Shane signing, I just hung around with a beer and chatting with a few people. Nicole, aka the Toy Baroness suddenly asks "Hey do you want to sign?!"<br /><br />The rest is history and a blur. My first few sketches/autographs looked like crap because I was so rushed, but the later ones were better. It's a new experience for me so eventually it'll get better.<br /><br />I'll sign again. Soon, hopefully.chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-59254158765098168042009-02-07T03:40:00.003-05:002009-02-07T03:50:09.214-05:00NYCC 2009<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVvplRN3J9otmvnCuTY1cPsDrHH5x_LwrZcJZE1IJcdukH_ZLEIrzVdn0dpTNNbNoA2_HXqR7xWB7yEGJ_caQh-MbB4lUnlF04-OPw0RlSoA9y16KRn0LbZ8mcI3oB8RQ7bqX7uQC1CAw/s1600-h/gotham_min52.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 271px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVvplRN3J9otmvnCuTY1cPsDrHH5x_LwrZcJZE1IJcdukH_ZLEIrzVdn0dpTNNbNoA2_HXqR7xWB7yEGJ_caQh-MbB4lUnlF04-OPw0RlSoA9y16KRn0LbZ8mcI3oB8RQ7bqX7uQC1CAw/s400/gotham_min52.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299974668277208930" /></a><br />NYCC 2009... it felt very much like 2008. Though, this time I got through to Peter Laird and got him to sign my sketch book. Lair is one of the co-creators of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Last year I kind of flaked out and didn't ask him to sign anything but I was not letting him get away this time. I went loaded with cash on the intent of buying prints or finding some cool thing to buy but I didn't see much. I did end up getting a Dustin Nyugen print of Batman and various characters from the caped-crusader's series. He had a great one of the Avengers but the Batman print was much better.<br /><br />There was a great Mark Brooks print of Iron Man that I forgot to buy. Hopefully my minions can get it for me over the weekend...chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7423385363770369239.post-80614398581417572772009-02-02T12:20:00.005-05:002009-02-02T12:25:54.048-05:00Meet the Artists...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-y2Q3tRXdrUN2kIJ-qyZ_pcJPFdKCV4hzf8pVy-lWfxR1E05tGZchsExGWoAjSbUkwV4kH-kfKjN14XDcNi5rIKHizQh_Lr0IWXo_txjAOe9DRRrZaOBW4MKvGzyA8YHhraULJ7hmXjo/s1600-h/NYCC_WebFlyer.png"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-y2Q3tRXdrUN2kIJ-qyZ_pcJPFdKCV4hzf8pVy-lWfxR1E05tGZchsExGWoAjSbUkwV4kH-kfKjN14XDcNi5rIKHizQh_Lr0IWXo_txjAOe9DRRrZaOBW4MKvGzyA8YHhraULJ7hmXjo/s400/NYCC_WebFlyer.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298251480508241074" /></a>chuckboyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00619321000020823003noreply@blogger.com0
