Toys as Art: Micro Bears
http://toysasart.blogspot.com/2011/08/micro-bears.html
Wednesday, August 24, 2011. These figures were based on the classic Microman toy line by Takara. To see a write up on the replica reissue figures that these are based on please go here. A special thanks to Paul L. for the Microforever site. These are colored like the original M101 George, M102 Jack, M 103 Jesse and M104 John in the barefoot Microman line.

Toys as Art: Death of the Endless Kitbash
http://toysasart.blogspot.com/2009/10/death-of-endless-kitbash.html
Friday, October 9, 2009. Death of the Endless Kitbash. I have a great appreciation for well written comics. One of my favorite is Neil Gaiman's Sandman. I decided to come up with my own custom Death figure in 1/6 scale. The body is a Volks doll painted white. I also used various clothing from other figures that I had for the boots, pants and shirt. I found the Ankh at a bead store. Here I have posed to the figure as if she were saying, "Take my hand.". October 12, 2009 at 12:08 AM. May 20, 2011 at 5:08 AM.

Toys as Art: Shiny New Toy
http://toysasart.blogspot.com/2009/09/shiny-new-toy.html
Wednesday, September 9, 2009. Here is another Microman custom. I decided to do this one because the Command 2 or Pharoid figure was one of my favorite figures when I was a child. I was surprised to find out that there was a fantastic Command 1 figure released by Romando for the 20th anniversary called M150 Edge. He is the figure and the capsule on the left side of the picture. You can see my friend Paul's write up on him on his site microforever.com. M164 Sammy and Gold Capsule. View my complete profile.

Toys as Art: April 2009

Wednesday, April 1, 2009. New Acroyear with Cast Parts. I have had this New Acroyear for a few years now. It was missing a claw, beak, and a missile. Here is a back view showing the existing missle that has some chrome loss next to the missile cast in white resin. Each different color of New Acroyear had a different beak and a different chest. Although the beak was cast from one found in a complete green New Acroyear, it is still good to have a beak that works at all. Fun with Molding and Casting. As you...

Toys as Art: October 2009

Tuesday, October 13, 2009. Delirium of the Endless Kitbash. Delirium of the Endless. She used to be Delight but something happened to her that made her into Delirium. She is the youngest of the Endless. My interpretation of the anthropomorphic personification of Delirium has the odd blue and green eyes and multicolored hair that Delirium exhibits in some of the later comics. I also chose to make her less of a hippy and bit more of a riot girl. Friday, October 9, 2009. Death of the Endless Kitbash. Here i...

Toys as Art: July 2011
http://toysasart.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 17, 2011. Destiny of the Endless. Destiny is the oldest and the tallest of the Endless. It might seem like an easy task to make a figure in a brown cloak with a book chained to his wrist. I did want to make him the tallest of the endless figures. He stands in at around 14 inches tall. I had the cloak made a few years ago, but I have been taking my time finding the right pieces to complete this figure. The book is hand made with a print out of leather pattern and bare metal foil matte aluminum.
