This time I tried to paint the shiny parts with nail polish coat, first in order to give it a gloss finish on some parts and on the weapons and second to protect them of the chipping. Good results except for the knives, but to be honest I don't remember coating those.

Hori-shi Horikazu IV (Nao-san) noted that I needed a dragon (ryu) on my arm. He had the additional challenge of covering up my earlier joke of a tattoo. And I wanted a half-sleeve. So you can imagine the amount of work that needed to be done in such a small area (small when compared to the areas (full body, full sleeves) that he is used to doing).
He drew the dragon's head on stencil paper, and transferred it onto my arm. I liked it instantly. Then he drew its body and the background (clouds and a representation of air/wind) directly on my skin using art pens. Check that blueprint in my earlier photographs. That was it for one night. It took about an hour and a half.
The next day, he sat down with the tattoo machine and drew the outline and did some shading work for about 5 hours with three 5-minute breaks in between. It hurt like hell in the beginning, but sometime later my tolerance level increased. But once the day's work was done, I could hardly move my arm. It was sore.
The third day, he had to complete the finer shading, esp around the scales on the dragon's body and around its head. This took another 2 hrs. The end result was a magnificent dragon on my arm, and a very happy customer in me. I am impressed with Nao-san's work.
So all in all, it took around 8 hrs, and I have to get some more work done (some colors, a pointy tail perhaps) the next time I am here in Japan.
Ryu Kishi (oc/od)
Hayabusa MKII design. Ryu Kishi (Dragon knight).
The shoulders house holo projectors for emitting "clones". The Visor is nearly completely hidden to give a cylopian look. Using a beam sword developed from the Covenant energy sword tech.
The figure was a spartan warrior, the upper arms are from a Marvel havok figure, the shoulders are from a WoW figure.

A friend of mine Ryu made this cork art out of wine and champagne cork. I had promised to take photo of them for him.
This is my contribution to Nathan Jurevicius's Scarygirl 10th Anniversary Show being held at Toy Tokyo Underground on Halloween 2012 in NYC.
When Nathan asked me to be in the show, it was a geek moment for myself as the original Treedweller vinyl toy was and still is, one of my favorite toys from recent years.
For my take on his Treedweller character, I wanted to pay homage to Nathan and the fabulous characters that he has created. In my world, the Treedweller is a voluptuous, sinister vixen who entices unwary travelers with her alluring smile and fetching body. Her eyes glisten and her lips grow wet at the thought of finding yet another victim, as she arches her back in anticipation of the feast to come.
This piece was created with polymer clay, epoxy on a wood base and painted with acrylics. The Scarygirl character is removable so that it can be optionally displayed with the scene.
Please inquire with Toy Tokyo Underground for availability.
Humble thanks to Nathan for asking me to participate in his show. Congratulations on 10 years of Scarygirl and many more to come. Keep killin it.
