THE THIRD VERSION.. NEW RESIN MASKEDMAN FIGURE

Over the last few months in the background of the desk of makings, I've been slowly doing stuff to create the third version of my character in resin,this guy.... the Maskedman.. 

Standing 7.5 inches tall this third version has 5 points of magnetic articulation allowing their feets, arms and heads to be turned and positioned. Each one has been hand finished with additional sculpting and given one of those mini Maaadcans to control..Painted with acrylics and finished with several coats of clear lacquer, the first finished four come with a matching color scheme mini canvas to hang behind the piece or stand on the easel supplied.

If you'd like to own one of these four figures they'll be available from my Big Cartel store this Thursday 11th May at 7:00pm (UK time.)

SKELEVEX DEFACED SERIES 3

The third series of Defaced Skelevex are here after being trusted again to customize/vandalize some more of these cool little resin platforms.. Designed by DMS and ALTO and produced by DMS, these 3" long objects are all one of a kind pieces covered in tags and my grimy graff..I try to make every millimeter of these look interesting with layers of faded tags, blends and drips before weathering and clear coating. As with the other series, these were loads of fun to do. Skelevex is such a cool shape to work on and the amount of angles is insane.. Check out some of DMS's other Skelevex pieces on Instagram using the #skelevex hashtag .. and also in his store linked below..

Series 3 will be available tonight at 7:30 GMT from DMS's STORE priced at £14.99 each plus shipping.. Thanks for reading!

FOR LIFE.. NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS..MORE MAAADCANS..

It's been a busy few weeks with the run up to Christmas as orders of custom name cans are being sent out on a regular basis along with a few resin customs and the odd print..Some of those MaaadCans I've been posting about have been sent around the world lately..(it's mad to think they could be out there probably wrapped with a bow under a tree already)

I've been enjoying making these pieces and after tracking down some real looking eyes and teeth to incorporate into the sculpts, I've recently finished these 5 and put them in my store...

HOAKSER RESIN GRAFFITI CHARACTER .. MASKEDMAN 5 INCH

One of the main reasons I started teaching myself how to sculpt years ago was so I could make my graffiti characters into objects.. This character "the maskedman" has been taking up space with my name on for as long as I can remember and has traveled to places I've never been or may never go..

These 5 inch hand painted resins are the latest versions of that character and come presented in hand finished gift boxes with stickers..Each one is unique, painted with acrylics and finished with a coat of satin lacquer and has a detachable magnetic head which can be positioned to face any direction you like.. If you know someone who might deserve one of these this Christmas, they are available from my Bigcartel store, priced at £50 each..

TOY LINERS resin vandals

   Fresh to the store this week is a line of "not toys" called TOYLINERS..

For those that don't already know, a "Toy" in graffiti terms is someone who isn't that good, has a weak style and sloppy handstyle. hasn't had much practice or put in any work and probably doesn't understand the unwritten rules of graffiti yet.. These toys often find themselves getting crossed out, lined or gone over..It's just how it is.. 

   In terms of these toy looking objects me and lots of other people produce which get labelled as "toys" or "designer toys" ( and loads of other titles that attempt to explain what they are) they aren't really toys, in the sense that they weren't necessarily made to be played with.. That being said, most of the time it's the closest word that sort of describes what they look like, hence the name ToyLiners.. (If you'd like to see more of the not really toy things I'm waffling about, I recommend checking out SpankyStokes.com and the ToyChronicle blog for a quick eye opener.) 

Cast in resin and hand painted with acrylics, these 4 inch figures have detachable magnetic heads and come presented in custom vandalized boxes with free stickers inside.. 

They'll be available this Friday 18th November at 7.00pm (UK time) priced at £40 each from my Bigcartel store..Only one of each piece is available, head over to the store to take a closer look..

MINI MAAAD CANS .. resin spray cans series one..

If you follow me on any of my social media sites you've probably seen a few progress posts of these things slowly taking over my desk.. Cast in resin from original sculpts, these mini Maaad Cans are one of a kind pieces that get the same paint treatment as my normal sized versions on real empty cans (see more here). The first series of these much smaller 3.5 inch resins are finally finished which means they're ready to be claimed and do the honors of getting up in peoples space.

 All of them are signed, unique pieces, painted with acrylics and spray paint before finishing with a coat of clear lacquer..The final cherry on top is selecting a used nozzle from a stash of hoarded blocked caps that compliment or match the color scheme of the cans. 

There's 5 of each of the two characters available for the first series, with more versions currently being worked on for future releases..Each figure comes boxed with stickers, priced at £25.00 each plus postage from my Bigcartel store.. 

Available this Friday 4th November at 7.00pm BST ( UK time zone ) 

MAAAD CANS .. SPRAY CAN GRAFFITI SCULPTURES

Not sure if anyone would have noticed but it's been a few months since I last posted anything up on the blog.The main reason being is that my new little apprentice (Dog the cat) wasn't computer trained when I took him in and would make it his mission to chase the onscreen mouse whenever I tried to do any kind of computer work. Or he would just want to sit on the keyboard and press combinations of buttons that would make my computer do weird things? Anyway, he's grown up a little bit now and understands how important it is for me to be able to use a computer to show you my work. I'll try and catch up with a few posts about what I got up to over the summer but for now I just wanted to share these new custom can sculpts I've been working on lately..

Each one is unique and sculpted onto empty depressurized spray cans before painting with spray paint and acrylics. These one of a kind customs have been taking over the studio over the last few weeks and some of these are currently available from my store at varying prices, depending on how long each one took to complete..Prices usually range from £25 to £40 per can.

If you'd like to own a MaaadCan for your own amusement you should head over to the STORE to see what's available at the moment. (other pieces and store links can be found on my website HERE) 

COMING SOON! There are more sculpts in progress on the work bench as well as a much smaller resin version of this concept that's almost ready for release.. so if you'd like a smaller hand painted resin MaaadCan the first 2 versions will be made available over the next week..Here's a little preview of those..

Hand painted with acrylics and sealed with clear lacquer, this little dude is a unique custom ready to take some space up somewhere..Head over to the store if you want to pick this custom up...
