For those who also follow me on instagram, a big thank you for getting me to 500 followers over the past 3 months (thats almost the equivalent of 2 and a half years on flickr!).
Something alot of people particularly like about my 'artwork inspired' series, is the elemental weapons and accessories the figures have. So what better way to celebrate than two specific photoshoots to display them!
All the painted parts are made from thin plastic sheets, (the type you find on action figure boxes). All are hand painted which is really where my art skills help this. I intend to make more in this style, maybe a couple of other sabers too. The 'Enix' Vader's 'force flames' and Fett's 'thruster flames' are currently being made/non removable.
If there are any particular objects or weapons you'd like to see made in the style above, send me a message or leave a link to an image bellow, and it's likely they will be made!
Also nearing 700 followers on here, so would like to say another big thank you to you guys!
Upon 800 followers, I'll be hosting a contest where ( probably artwork/sculpture inspired figures #artyfarty) where first place wins either a Desert Nomad Obi-wan or another artwork inspired commission. And yes, I will do that rare thing of shipping world wide from the UK.
As always guys, let me know what you think and if you have any other ideas/suggestions that you want to see made.
I currently have 'wibbly wobbly timey wimey' schedule, but I may fit in one or two more things over this holiday.
If your still reading this far, then good on you! XD
p.s any design work/competition prize winners, I havn't forgotten about you!
have a great week ahead!
little post and run today, i'm off for a small open air festival nearby - i'll catch up as soon as possible ;-)
Japan-Tag 2014
some more scenes from last years
Day of Japan
Düsseldorf, Germany
Day of Japan / Japan Day is a German-Japanese festival celebrated every year in May/June in Düsseldorf, Germany. It is the largest festival of its kind in the world. North Rhine-Westphalia is the home of the biggest Japanese community in continental Europe.
A link to my set from that day and some additional information about the event are in the first comment.
Freaks, weirdos and others with nothing to share get blocked and deleted, you probably smell of wee as well

The White Canvas Gallery presents an open challenge to enable you to stand united for peace. Lets disown the mindless violence around us and lets DO something about it as artists.

“Several officials even suggested that Mr. Biden could return nuclear weapons to Ukraine that were taken from it after the fall of the Soviet Union. That would be an instant and enormous deterrent. But such a step would be complicated and have serious implications.”– New York Times

My dust buster.
Friday is cleaning day and one of my jobs is vacuuming. I used to look forward to Fridays before I had cleaning duties! Life is easier with my brightly coloured carpet cleaner.
#69 of 116 pictures in 2016 - Cleaning Implement
Picture done to show off/advertise the second static animation pose I made myself, inspired by Dwalin from the Hobbit films.
Had some cool combos for a Star Wars episode II-III era inspired crew. The Rodian head couldn't fit that armor piece more perfectly, it even has a little notch in the back for the head ridges.
The droid is a IG series model retrofitted with hydraulic lift arms to move their cargo around.
Left to right we have the energy-based specialist, IG-81 "Iggy", the captain/mission coordinator, the jump trooper, and the scout.
The weapons systems are being installed aboard the W.H.Seward, starting with the main weapons batteries. I may try a different barrel design, but I like the overall look and size of the turrets.
Like it on MOCpages to help the Ashes Rule! Your like matters! This is Decisive Action 3.

This is my build for Category 5 of DA3. Probably my first gun I ever build, but I found it similar to the Tracker I made a year or so ago. It was enjoyable and tricky, and I'm glad with what I have to present, hope you enjoy!
Due to the extreme terrain on continent F, a normal train simple will not do. So the Penguin Monarchy has developed the Conveyex Rail Weapon to satisfy the need for fast and efficient transport across the mountains. A minimum train payload includes six distinct cars that each serve a vital function.
Top row, right to left:
1. Engine:
The engine of the Conveyex doubles as the command bridge and houses the controls for a vehicle. The engine car also includes an anti-aircraft cannon to support the main weapon.
2. Weapon Car:
The weapon car supports the missile launcher and as loaded with heat-seeking torpedoes. The main weapon has a 360 degree radius and is loaded by an automatic magnetic crane.
3. Ammunition Car
The ammunition car carries a payload of heat-seeking torpedoes to be loaded into the main weapon.
Bottom row, right to left:
4. Support Car
The support Car is used in conjunction with the main weapon and is able to fire on any enemy positions ahead of the Conveyex. This car shares part of the engine housing with the engine car and cannot be separated from it.
5. Tanker Car:
The tanker car is used to transfer the precious resource of oil across the continent to fuel the penguin's war machine. Four tanks are housed in each tanker car.
6. Crew Car:
The crew car is essential for being a relaxing environment for the crew of the Conveyex. The crew car features a row of windows, and a hatch on each side if the crew should need to walk outside on the Conveyex.
Platforms are situated along the track to update the pilot on the condition of the track and indicate other essential information.
This was a very tricky but worthwhile build to make and I got a huge amount of inspiration from this concept art from Solo: A Star Wars Story: www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.starwar...
Adamantium Rraaaaaage.
Maverick: Never seen this guy done before. I'm not sure he's been done now. Heh. CMF Agent guy hair, Chitauri head, Chima armor, Ninjago torso/legs.

Sound off your thoughts.

Tchaikovsky's Weapon
O, those Europeans--
in the future their descendants
will be intimate with wild animals
and again
ashamed of what they have done
Tchaikovsky's music
is unbeatable
Tchaikovsky's music
will defeat all of them
Designed to be launched from the LuftPanzer platform, the P11-D was maneuverable and capable of very high speeds. However, it was developed too late to change the course of the air war over Germany.
Curve-tastic.
Alright, Robbe, CJDodo, your turn.
C'mon, I can't be the only one who as ever held a puppy and pretended it was a gun, pointing its butt at someone and yelling "pew pew"... right?
I'm not crazy am I?
Well this gun was loosely inspired by that. If you look closely, you can see the puppy-like shape.
