Hot on the heels of getting "Best Space" at BrickFair VA, my Turquoise Terror got 1st place in the Gundam category at the International Plastic Modelers Society National convention in Chattanooga. I was pleasantly surprised to find this out when I went back to the table to pack all my stuff up, since I'd assumed I wouldn't place and missed the 5 minutes of the 3 hour awards ceremony I would have actually cared about.

This is a life-size sculpture of me as a pre-assembly model kit. It is made out of fibre glass, resin and plastic.
2008 the tenth anniversary of the year that I properly became a sculptor and this sculpture was the starting point. Although, technically speaking I started making the moulds for it in 1997.
A couple of years after I first exhibited this piece I started getting emails and phone calls from friends asking if I was exhibiting it in different galleries all over the place. It turned out that a few other artists had made similar sculptures after I had made mine. I suppose there was a bit of a zeitgeist thing going on. I'd be interested to know if anyone had made something similar before 1998.
Ironically, 'And When I'm A Man' is probably the largest sculpture that I have made to date. Most of my current sculptural work tends to be made up of small detailed components that grow outwards or upwards.
As well as being made from 12 separate body casts of myself (a self portrait, I suppose) 'And When I'm A Man' is based on the type of model kit that I used to buy as a child. When creating the piece I was interested in childhood perceptions of adulthood and the role that toys played in this, as I noticed that many figurative toys were that of adult characters.
Date: 1998
Dimensions: 230 x 170 x 18 cm
Materials: fibreglass, resin & plastic.

This build up was from an original issue 1957 Revell kit that started as a minor glue bomb. I re-fitted the multi-piece body and then sanded out the casting flaws. It is spray painted in a green metallic similar to the original plastic colour. The tonneau cover is from a later issue of this kit and the wheels are from an AMT 57 Hardtop kit as I did not care for the plastic ones that were offered with the kit from Revell. The box has typical great art work as so many models by Revell did at that time. Inside are the original instructions and decals to replicate the box picture. The worst part of this kit was it was first issued in 1957 as a 4 door country squire and then they butchered the dies in 1959 to offer this Ranchero body style. As a result the doors are not to scale in length as they should be longer for a 2 door vehicle. The Ranchero dies after 2 editions were butchered again to offer a chopped top version so don't be looking to see this kit anytime soon. If you want the very first one in the Country Squire body style start saving your change they are not cheap if you can find one.
Some additional detail shots. I'm particularly pleased with how the heat staining on the thrusters came out, this was my first real attempt at it.

I was overwhelmed when I saw all the models in Yodobashi, I only bought a tiny suitcase and robot.
I ordered the larger kits on HLJ when we got home.
Fujimi Suzuki Jimny Custom, with spring over axle conversion, 33" Super Swamper and custom build electric winch.
This Hasegawa 1/32 Sabre has been pushed aside for some 17 years, so I've dusted it off, and repaired the damage it originally sustained which caused its long term storage. I've even found most of the parts, so we'll see how I go with it.
