The first of two semi-static posed figures of the creature from the 1979 film, Alien. Hand sculpted, hand painted. This version depicts the beast as it would have appeared in several promotional test shots during pre-production, the air duct scene where Captain Dallas met his end as well as a deleted scene appearing within the corridor while Parker and Lambert were making their desperate escape.

 

Figure is approx. 3" high from highest point on head to the feet. Articulated neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists. Vacuum formed PETG dome is removable.

 

Original was sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt, a two part epoxy. Parts were cast in resin and assembled to build this version. Used Model Masters Polly Scale and Tamiya acrylics.

Here's Jennir with the cowl removed completely - the cowl is a seperate sculpted piece made from the FIXIT epoxy. This material is incredible to work with - no limitations to what you can do with it. Props to Aves!

 

Yuuzhan Vong Commander Sha'Kel from the Dark Hosre comic series, Invasion. Sculpt is about 35% complete. Figure is a total sculpt - using Aves FIXIT. 1:18 scale, approx 5.5 inches.

Finished sculpt of Zayne Carrick from Dark Horse's comic series, Knights of the Old Republic. The figure is almost a complete sculpt - Used Aves FIXIT as the sculpting material. 1:18 scale.

The sculpt is based on concept work from Star Wars Galaxies. The character was never given a name from what I understand but was listed as a Mon Calamari Tech

Specialist...really?...I decided a bounty hunter would be more interesting.

 

The jetpack can be used underwater or for short jumps over land - quick way of getting out of a sticky situation. The pack is removable.

 

Sculpted using FIXIT SCULPT

Another shot of a head sculpt close to completion, with another not too far behind. Each shares the same facial sculpt, but I will be painting each one slightly different from one another to give the characters individuality - besides, I don't think the clone program was active in the New Republic...LOL!

I will be making several 1:18 scale Engineers as seen in the motion picture Prometheus. This is the first completed head sculpt. I don't believe the engineers were clones of one another and each had their own likeness - this one is based on the combination of concept art and the Engineer seen at the beginning of the film. The body will be an entire articulated sculpt for each, with an alternate torse to recreate the scene at the end of the film.

iPhone shot - sorry for the fuzzy quality...Here are the beginnings of my Mazzic sculpt - a character from Timothy Zahn's novel, Star Wars: The Last Command, imagery from the graphic novel adaptation from Dark Horse comics. I'm resculpting the ears...originally placed them a bit to forward. Will be filling out the hair and continue working on the upper body sculpt as well.

"The TEETH! Fix the teeth!"

I've always planned to fix the teeth but had put it off while building the rest of the figure. Realized after the last update that it was becoming more of an issue to some...and I get it believe me! So before any further updates, I chose to revise the sculpt yesterday.

Sculpt progress on the Praetorian Xenomorph (Egg Morpher) - Aliens: Defiance - 1:18 scale. A work in progress.

A little less friendly I hope? LOL! Sculpted the entire set of teeth once again along with the rim that goes above the gum line.

The Defiance Praetorian featured teeth that resembled that of the Deacon newborn from Prometheus - human teeth (very creepy) with a protruding jaw that contained the fangs. I still plan to sculpt a version that features those teeth, just not as big as the original sculpt. Variation is a beautiful thing. #alien #aliens #defiance #darkhorsecomics #praetorian #covenant #nostromo #sulaco #sculpture #aves #avesfixit #avesstudio #sculpting #customactionfigure

Sculpt progress on the Newborn. Alien: Resurrection. 1:18 scale - work in progress. Working with Aves FIXIT sculpt by Aves Studio LLC​.

  

Wish I had more to share with this guy - just one image. Taking this sculpt slowly as it's something that can get away from you a bit if you're not careful. Already thinking of making some adjustments. That's what makes this work fun - at least in my opinion.

  

Already know the figure will have multiple head sculpts: Closed mouth, open mouth and the tongue....gotta have that tongue. Different expressions as well.

  

More to come with this guy - stay tuned! #alien #ressurection #newborn #baby #butterfly #queenkiller #ripley #miniature #avesstudio #FIXIT #sculting

Yuuzhan Vong Warrior from the Dark Horse comic series, Invasion. Sculpt is about 85% complete - Shoulder armor is removable. Figure is a total sculpt - using Aves FIXIT. Plan to create an alternate head sculpt of the warrior. 1:18 scale, approx 5.5 inches.

Straying from the path he has sturggled to hold true, Dass Jennir arrives on Telerath. Unbeknownst to Jennir, his destiny with the living force is about to be revealed and his burdened conscience wiped clean....

 

Dass Jennir is a favorite character of mine from the Star Wars Dark Horse Expanded Universe.

 

My apologies for taking so long to complete this piece...as with all my work, I never center my full attention on just one project, always a bit at a time, tabling and returning to the subject when the inspiration hits.

 

This is a 1:18th scale figure - fully articulated with all the basic movements and can be posed in many postions like other factory made figures...mostly when his cowl is removed.

 

Both figures sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt and painted using Floyquil Acrylics.

Had some fun with photoshop the other day! Found an old FBI wanted poster online and thought it would be fun to help promote an upcoming figure I am close to completing. Replaced all the Federal info with Imperial, as well as the dates and the law specifics. Boba may have gotten the upper hand on ol' Furlag but he was a bad dude to most who got in his way...

Completed Jedi Master Luke Skywalker as seen in issue #3 of Star Wars Invasion by Dark Horse Comics. Luke is in command of Republic forces sent to the planet Rychel in order to repel the invading forces of the Yuuzhan Vong.

 

The figure was mostly sculpted in Aves Epoxy FIXIT sculpt using a plastic articulated armature. The forearms and hands have been recasted from original parts. The head originalted from a Legacy Snowspeeder Luke figure, casted in wax and completly retooled and refined adding additional markings to the face, age lines, a lower brow, hair and ears...I also strengthened the jaw. The figure measures 3.75" in height. Painted using Floyquil Acrylics by testors.

My complete sculpted figure of Lumbra - A Gotal space pirate who appeared in issues 7-10 of the Dark Horse comic saga Dark Times. Lumbra was killed at the hands of Jedi K'Kruhk after attempting to capture/kill Jedi younglings.

 

The figure has 12 points of articulation, an alternate head (still a WIP) and a working holster with removable pistol. The figure stands approx. 4.25" high. Sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt. Head featured in photo is a plastic cast of my sculpted original.

Sculpt update on the Neomorph - Alien: Covenant - 1:18 scale work in progress.

Sculpt made using Aves FIXIT Sculpt from Aves Studio LLC

Began working on the upper torso of the figure, exaggerating the dept of the ribcage a bit so a thinner application of FIXIT can be added once cured. Need to add detail to the back and create the "spikes" that protrude.

Next will be the lower torso, another head variant, tail and arms. More to come! #alien #aliens #covenant #neomorph #xenomorph #protomorph #sculpture #aves #avesfixitsculpt #avesstudio #customactionfigure #miniature

Here is a recent update on Mika - A Farghul Bounty Hunter from Star Wars Republic.

Sculpt update on the Newborn - Alien: Resurrection - 1:18 scale work in progress.

Sculpt made using Aves FIXIT sculpt from Aves Studio LLC

Revisions to one side of the head sculpt. Cleaned up some of the details, softened others and lengthened the skull a bit. Now that I have the proportions close to where I want them to be, I can fill in the void on the other side of the cranium LOL! Price paid when working with this material - a little progress at a time. The payoff is worth it though.

Next up, complete the cranium, sculpt the mouth and lower jaw....and that tongue! LOL!

More to come! #alien #aliens #resurrection #newborn #hybrid #queenkiller #sculpture #avesstudio #avesfixit #aves #customactionfigure

A teaser image of a concept sculpt of Starkiller painted and complete. I am currely working on a sculpt reflecting the actors likeness...or close to it :) I have two body sculpts in mind - the one we've all seen in trailers and media...and another TBD.

The first of two semi-static posed figures of the creature from the 1979 film, Alien. Hand sculpted, hand painted. This version depicts the beast as it would have appeared in several promotional test shots during pre-production, the air duct scene where Captain Dallas met his end as well as a deleted scene appearing within the corridor while Parker and Lambert were making their desperate escape.

 

Figure is approx. 3" high from highest point on head to the feet. Articulated neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists. Vacuum formed PETG dome is removable.

 

Original was sculpted using Aves FIXIT sculpt, a two part epoxy. Parts were cast in resin and assembled to build this version. Used Model Masters Polly Scale and Tamiya acrylics.

Sculpt update on the Newborn - Alien: Resurrection - 1:18 scale. A work in progress.

Sculpt using Aves FIXIT Sculpt from Aves Studio LLC

Completed the sculpt of the jaw which will be reduced and sculpted over for detail later. It will be kept as a separate piece as I intend to make several variants of the creatures head utilizing a closed and open mouth. Also sculpted the upper teeth of the beast. The lower will be sculpted along with the jaw detail soon.

Head sculpt refined and completed for my upcoming Skorr figure - Had to get back to the classics!

Paint progress on The Beast: Airshaft - ALIEN 79 - 1:18 scale.

 

I know it's been awhile - believe me. Nobody is more happy than I to get back to some figure work. It's been a crazy few weeks but I've finally found some time to invest in a piece I started a few years back.

 

A recap...This is a static posed figure...well, more semi-static. There's articulation in the neck, shoulders, elbows and wrists. The dome is vacuum formed from PETG plastics that can snap on and off the length of the cranium. The figure can fit in the palm of your hand to give you an idea of scale. I have this piece and the "crab walker" which are variants from my original fully articulated sculpt of the Giger beast.

 

I'd like to try one, possibly two more static posed versions of the creature - the "box alien" as seen in the illustrated adaptation of the film and possibly a hanging version as seen before Brett's demise in the landing bay.

 

Much of what you see is stylized, I get it - reason?...Because at the moment, most of the figure has been painted with a flat back coat...and visually that's boring. Would have to blow it out with a strobe to get that detail and for right now I don't think it's necessary,

 

Only the head and arms have been detailed but not complete. Just had some fun with the camera/mood effects this time around. More to come! I have time to work on this and the "crab walker" for a bit this weekend! YAY! #alien #alien79project #giger #airshaft #nostromo #painting #acrylics

Another head sculpt that didn't make it to the blog update...Version 2.0 of Jarael from the Dark Horse comic series Knights Of The Old Republic. This verion of Jarael will have her sporting a new head and body sculpt to reflect the costum she wore later in the series - bit.ly/pEgu5J. The image you see here is a work in progress - her tattoos have not been added yet and a bit more work is needed around the eyes.
