MASTER MOLD THREE...In The Mail This Week!

I have a few nice models in route to Iron Wind this week. All of my Trooper & Cavalry Bases, some secrete projects (LOL...Whoow!) most of these are the 3D Sculptures I have had done in the last year.

This Master Mold is going out to take care of the bulk of my plastic toys. I have a lot of my Traditional Sculpture almost ready to be Mastered too. I am going to send them off soon too, that will be Master Mold Four.

This Years Birthday.

Not to bad this year. I had a nice dinner and enjoyed the company of a few good friends, same as most of us I reckon.

Then I got silly and stopped Smoking after 30 years.

I have been smoke free since the 6th, and now Vape. I was serious about doing this, and it has worked so well for me that I have already given away all of my RYO smoking materials, to neighbors that roll their own cigarettes, which is what I have done for about seven years. Some new technology really is useful... I don't know why people still spend $200 a month on Cartons of Cigs. I stopped that shit when name brand cartons got to around $20. If you still smoke I am telling you as a life long smoker, top of the line Vaporizers (See my Links) do work...it IS just like smoking Brothers, but without all of the bad shit you get with smoke.

I am of course keeping my Skull Ash Tray, but now that Lil Mo Fo will have Skittles or M&M's in it.

Making the switch to Vaporizer Tech will save me about $40 a month off Smoking RYO Cigs, which use to cost me about $60 a month. That extra $$$ will go to 3D Sculpts and Prints. 

Which brings me to my second Birthday Present...Lol...John at Moddler sent me a few images of my New 3D Models this week, a day after my B-Day.

All of these Prints will be in Master Mold Number Three.

Moddler & NEW 3D Joint Nickahs.

How about Moddler. I am going to be a lazy no good, and just link to John Bear's nice post about Moddler. Big JB said it all just fine, so I invite you to read his comments at his Cool Azz Blog.

I had a few new 3D's done too recent like. I ain't showing you guys all of them, but I will share the one that I am the most happy with; a Chain Blade which I will use for several of my new 15MM and 30MM sculptures.

This is the Chain Blade. I will sculpt The Engions on based on several designs.

Sexy as Hell...ain't it Brothers.

This baby is at Moddler right now, with other new models and a redo of my Toxic Dead Black Barrel, which got crushed the first time Stu tried to Master it. This second time around the damn thing will be 2/3 filled with Procreate before I send it to Iron Wind.

I will share some more 3D stuff soon...

Countdown To 2013: LEGION

Brothers, I now have a LEGION...of Body Blanks. 

Pictured in this article are about 300 perfect Master Castings, ranging in size from 30MM to 9MM, measured  from the base to the crown. I also have another 190 male and female Body Blank Parts, which I have not shown because there is nothing to see yet, but little piles of Bodies, Heads, and limbs.

To my Brothers out there who have wondered if I would ever really get all of the models done that I have talked about: the answer is yes. This was $390 well spent.

All I have to do now is play Dress-up-Baby-Dolls with some serious moxie! 

And here we are a week from October...Oh how sweet it is! Toxic Dead? YES!

"With just a touch of my burning hand,
I'm gonna live my life to to destroy your world!
Prime directive, exterminate, The whole fuckin' race!

All I wanted to say, And all I gotta do.
Who'd I do this for, Hey, me or you? "

Danzig

Thanks to Iron Wind Metals; to Mike Noe for keeping the money right for my budget, and to Stu for doing such a good job on the Molding and Master Casting!

2013 is going to be my year.

HEROIC BLANK, BULLETS, AND TOXIC DEAD GEAR MASTER PRINTS Preview

I just got the word from my 3D Printer that my next set of Digital Models are in route. He sent a few pictures too. I will post better images of these models and component pieces when I get them Mastered in Metal.

The human male is my new Heroic Body Blank. This cock-diesel figure stands an appropriate 18MM's from toe to crown with a more robust general stature than the first series Body Blanks. I am thinking that for my Human Characters and Humanoid Monsters he is going to make my sculpting time very productive. The other models you have already seen here recently: they are the first four of six Chain Bullet Sets, the Toxic Dead Barrels and Toxic Icon Components.

TOXIC DEAD ICONS COMPLETED SCULPTURES Preview

The Toxic Dead Icon has been completed, in it's Base Form. Now you guys know I am going to add a lot of fun details to this Digital Sculpture, when I get the Metal Masters in hand, like that cute 0.5MM Chain, with all manner of Flesh Trophies and Skin Scrolls, to make this look as horrifying as it should be.

There are two versions of this Digital Sculpture, one is 6MM in diameter and the other is 11MM, both of which are going to be used  throughout the Toxic Legions. The chain will of course be used for several other models too.

TOXIC DEAD BLACK BARREL COMPLETED SCULPTURE Preview

Brothers, another step towards building The Ultimate Sci-Horror Undead Army has been taken...

A Word On Design: Each Black Barrel is 12x8MM with the lid in place.The bottom of the lid has a neat beveled frame so that we can mount a plastic strip (That I will provide in each pack) to represent the glass window. I am going to sculpt a Toxic Dead Bust that we can mount in the top half of the Black Barrel, so that we can actually see what horror awaits us within these evil devices.
The Black Toxic Stalkers pack will consist of 6 Black Barrels: 3 sealed with the Window Glass and Toxic Bust, 3 open with a Black Toxic Stalker coming out of it's barrel, and 6 Black Toxic Stalkers on my standard Detailed Bases.

I am sending these to my Mold Maker in 3 weeks...THEY WILL BE READY FOR THIS OCTOBER.

TOXIC DEAD BLACK BARREL WIP Preview

Can you Brothers figure out what I am going to do with these?

 

Oh Yes...

Yes, yes, yes!

CHAIN BULLETS COMPLETED SCULPTURES Preview

The Bullets are done now, and I love them! The image here is a screen shot taken from Netfabb Studio. You can not see the models as clearly as I would like, but when I have the Metal Masters done, I will post better quality pictures for you Brothers!

Joseph

BULLETS WIP Preview

Bullets have been a pet peeve of mine from day one, when I determined to make a complete range of 15MM Figures. I have my new Digital Sculptor working on them this week...soon I will be happy I think...lol.

To give you an idea of how fine these little bullets are, each of the squares on the gray background are 1 Milometer.

NEW BODY BLANKS & SIZE COMPARISONS

I received the New Body Blank Master Prints this week.

Here are a few shots of the new toys on their own, and with some of my favorite Rebel Minis figures.

NEW BODY BLANK MASTER PRINTS Preview

I received an email today previewing the prints of my new Digitally Sculpted Body Blanks. These models are in route to me as I type. I was curious to see if the tiny 9 MM model would print cleanly, and it looks fine which is very cool.

I am going to complete several weapons and some other cool items to go with these new Body Blanks, when that is done,  it will all go towards filling Master Mold two.

A Word On Design. The Millimeter sizing of these models was done from head to feet, thus the indicated scale of each is precise.

NEW BLOOD

I have enlisted the talents of two very skilled young artist to help me with The TOMORROW  BLACK Production. I have had The World of TOMORROW BLACK in my life for about 15 years, and now that I have started to work on it in earnest, in my young 40's...lol...I have come to realize that if I am going to make my "Tolkien sized universe" successfully, I need some help. It was a matter of pride really, and I have swallowed mine. TOMORROW BLACK is a huge undertaking for one man, thus I have hired a Digital Sculptor and Digital/Traditional Artist to help me.

I will still be doing all of the detailed sculpting of course, but I am very slow, to speed up the process, I have decided to get some basic Body Blanks done. Here is a little peek at one of the Digitally Sculpted Males.

The new full color artwork of TOMORROW BLACK will be drawn in rough by me, then fully realized by my wonderfully talented new Digital/Traditional Painter. These new paintings  will be done later in the year, the piece featured here is a sample only, it is not a part of The TOMORROW BLACK Art that I will produce in 2013.

Now back to sculpting these Murghaste Warriors...
