Commission: Alien Invaders

Hi!

Heres a quick pic of my latest commission:

Alien Invasion!

Standing 20mm and 25mm tall, the little fellows were for a one off piece that my client so they wont be getting cast but were rather a lot of fun to sculpt, especially with their bug eyes and over sized death rays!

I will be posting a few more bits and bobs up in the coming days of a decidedly lupine nature too so keep your eyes peeled!

All the best!

Red Robots!

Hi!

Well its been a rather busy month for me, holding down a full time job while trying to sculpt and travel from one end of the country to the other and back but heres a few quick pictures of the Red Robots I had on show at Aardman:

Thunderchief

 Forgebot

 Red Ambassador

 Tinker

 Minion

 Gunbot

 Brawlerbot

 Mr Tickle

Group Shot

Apologies for the quality of the pictures but I dont have access to my girlfriends camera at the moment and the one I have been loaned is rather lower on resolution...

I will be adding more bits and bobs over the coming weeks though so keep your eyes peeled for updates!
Allt he best!

Robots Everywhere...

Hi!

Well its been a really action packed couple of weeks getting the sculpts ready for the exhibition and I must admit I have loved almost every moment of it!

Following on from several conversations with both animators and miniatures manufacturer types I have decided that its about time I set to work on getting my Rusty Robots line up and running!

Trade Envoy WIP

Its been almost three years since the first of my Rusty Robots appeared as part of a university project and since then my obsession has grown and I think its about time I did some serious development of the project which has been bouncing around in my head for quite a while now and hopefully I will be able to do justice to it!

The First of Many

In keeping with this I have started work on getting my RUSTY ROBOTS blog a much needed update and hopefully over the coming weeks I will be able to get to work on fleshing out the background setting and feature lots of new robotic types for folks perusal. With this in mind I don't think I will be able to do as many commissions for folks for a while as I need to concentrate on the project but if you do need anything done urgently please feel free to get in touch!

All the best!

Tiny Rotund Robot Preview

Hi!

Heres a quick picture of the newest of my robots!

Chaarge!

I made him into an action pose as its a bit more interesting than having him just stood there!

I will be adding more pics of the completed lot over the next few days!

All the best!

To celebrate the international Talk Like a Pirate Day I recently completed some tiny Dwarven pirate sculpts!

AARGH! Jim lad!

Speaking of which I also have a surly big haired lady in waiting to act as an underling to my old lady:

Old Lady and Surly Lady in Waiting!

They will also be going up for sale in November but if you are interested please feel free to get in touch.

I will also be posting some previews of some robots I have been working on over the last few weeks too!

Hi!

15mm Scale Sci-Fi Trooper

Hi!

Heres a quick pic of my latest sculpt:

Sci-Fi Trooper

He was originally a test piece for a commission that didn't develop so I have reworked him into a generic trooper.

I don't know whether I should sculpt any more and put them up for sale but if folks like the concept I shall see what I can do but at present he's all alone!

All the best!

Dwarf Concepts for Something New

Hi!

Well I have been beavering away on a new project and heres a couple of the early concepts for it:

Fire Dwarf Warrior

Its all a bit nebulous at present but I am hoping to be able to show some more complete stuff in the coming weeks as I develop and flesh out the idea but there will eventually be a lot more stuff coming!
All the best!

Tiny Pink Robots!

Hi!

What does one do with half a packet of polymer clay of a rather lurid colour? Theres not enough to make a decent sized robot but there is just enough to produce a tiny horde of pink robots instead!

 Girlbots 1

Girlbot Detail 

 Girlbots

 Boybots

 Botbots 

Boybot Detail

I will be putting the little folks up for sale on Etsy over the weekend but thought I would give folks a bit of a preview here first.

Each robot stands about an inch tall and was surprisingly fun to make. Depending on how this lot sell I may be tempted to make some more in different colours too!

All the best!

Fan Art!

Hi!

I've just received a lovely surprise in the form of some new Fan Art!

TWO ONIONS, a nice young chap from Worcester has very kindly produced a rather splendid illustration based on my Blue Pirate Bot!

Pirate Bot by Two Onions!

The Original by me!

I do love the dynamic pose hes given the little fellow and am sorely tempted to have a bash at sculpting an action pose or two based on it! He has a page over on DEVIANT ART and its well worth a peek!

All the best!
