R5-A3 Packaging

R5-A3 Packaging, a photo by Manly Art on Flickr.

The horse was still moving, so I thought I'd beat it a little more.
This is final packing I modified for my R5-A3 Armstrong custom.

If you are interested, the custom toy I did this for is up for auction on Ebay.
You can check out the listing HERE.

R5-A3 Painting

As part of the R5-A3 custom I built, I thought it would be fun to make the packaging look as close as possible to a genuine 3A Toys box. This is one of the elements for the packaging.

This was a nice little experiment. I've always loved Ashley Woods style and I finally had an excuse to try and mimic it. While I don't think anyone would look at this and say "Hey, that's an Ashley Wood painting!", I feel like I got in the ballpark.

R5-A3 (3A Armstrong/1977 MPC R2-D2 Mash-Up)

R5-A3 (3A Armstrong/1977 MPC R2-D2 Mash-Up), a photo by Manly Art on Flickr.

This is R5-3A, my latest custom! I combined a 3A Armstrong with a 1977 MPC R2-D2 for this one. I made the blaster from scratch.

R5-A3 is a prototype battlefield Recconaissance Droid deployed with the 357th Star Corps. Equipped with a portable ion pulse canon, R5-A3 was very effective against the droid armies of the Separatists. Unfortunately, due to financial cuts, this droid was the only one produced.

If you are interested, this custom is up for auction on Ebay.
You can check out the listing HERE.

Here are a couple of commissions from a recent convention. The first one is a pin-up of Cheetara from the Thundercats. The second is a scenario where Magneto uses his powers on Leia's slave girl metal bikini. Mildly NSFW, so it's after the jump...

Miss October 1958- Mara Corday

Another ink test. I'm really liking the results I'm getting. This might just be something I'll stick with.

Miss February 1958- Cheryl Kubert

Playing around with some different techniques. This all brush and ink. I've been giving Dr. Martins inks a spin and I'm pretty happy with the results.
