A few more here (and more on my Flickr).... not sure... sometimes these things just work and others they don't.

I finally have a farmboy I like, but it isn't my norm. He is a hard bugger to get done the exact way I want!!! Ditto for Leia Bespin. Its those single color, detailed body sculpts that are ticking me off!

I am running out of figures!!! There are so many I want to do, but I simply don't have them. I have a few more but nothing special. But I will get to them too.

Anyway......









OTHER BROKEN IMAGE LINKS REMOVED SINCE FLICKR SCREWED ME.
Please check my Flickr Set in my sig.... I have no idea what was supposed to be here!


cheers!

Jay, you are doing some stunning work. I think my favorite is the tri fett with the removable rocket. Is that Kahn's figure? That is absolutely awesome. Keep it up.

No... all work I publish are my figures and my pictures and unfortunately the Fett with removable rocket is a repro 'replica' I do own. It was unpainted when I got it but I customized it.    Yeah, repro/replica, but cool.

The tri-fett I used is a non-removable rocket one and different in the final appearance.
I like the RRR one personally... it just screams bad-ass!

Wow, it looks just like a tri fett the way you made the pic. Don't frett about owning a repro, I will never be able to afford a rocket fett and have some of the poon fett's myself.

a bunch more cool pics Jay  

I really like the Zuckuss shot - looks like he's dancing  

for some reason it reminds me of the old tv show Laugh In

Thanks!
FOr some reason, the second I have an odd alien in the light tent to take pictures, they all seem to want to do crazy poses for the camera! I can't stop them so I just let them have fun for the camera!

Actually, for some reason that shot reminds me of Late Nite w/ Zuckuss skit from Robot Chicken. I don't know why, but it does. :scratch: 


And I am working on a few collages for kicks and might even try to see if a print could sell on ebay. I doubt it but it can't hurt to try.
So I tried this....


(all my images are public so sorry about the subtle watermark on this one just in case I do decide to try ebay)

Broken links again.. first post has everything...........

I am curious what anyone thinks of the Droids collage.

Anyway...

cheers!!!!!!!!

Sorry if it seems I am self bumping

So far my favorite Vader but there is no background detail! uugghhhh........ Always something.......



And my latest attempt at "Family"

I had to do my Glasslite Luke... came out pretty good I think. Farmboys are difficult to say the least.



And I was taking images for some ebay sales and while photographing 3 Jawa capes (no figures), it caught my eye and I think it is kinda funny.

Funny thing, I remember having at least two Vinyl Capes as a kid and when I went to my friends house he had the new fangled cloth ones. I immediately traded my VCs for the cloth ones because I saw it as a way to double my Jawa family playing with them naked and treating the cloth capes as figures!
Man, I was a stupid kid!

Picked up a few loosies this weekend in order to do a Bounty Hunters piece for kicks.


Some outtakes:




And just cause I always liked the oddity of this droid:


And a different direction for some personas:




cheers!

These are coming along quite well.
The chest up side profiles are really cool.

Looks really good as a group shot, nice work

Love the dancing IG-88

Man, this is embarrassing!
Flickr is very temperamental! If you breath on an image the wrong way, the links break... or their server farms just go bonkers.

Either way... I am sorry about the broken links! I am soooooooooooo pissed right now.       

I will gather myself later and re-do this entire thread as best as possible.

If anyone cares to see my stuff, just use the link in my signature to see my Flickr Artwork. It never fails when viewed in Flickr but sucks it is so fragile outside Flickr itself.

I was going to post a couple more, but I will wait until this crap gets fixed... again.............

You got something going with these two. Looks very good.

I've said this before, but this time I mean it.
I think I fixed the Flickr disappearing images... man, I hope so cause it just ticks me off!

So just a couple new ones that I kinda like...




My first attempt at a Leia Bespin (Escape) custom figure, art-ified


And from the Black 6" Series




Anyway... post one is updated with everything that I haven't posted (most new stuff is near the bottom, but take a slow scroll on your way down).

cheers!

I love photo mosaics.
I have two 24 x 36 inch ones framed of Yoda and Vader from somewhere over 15 years ago (maybe 20?)... anyway... I always loved them and seeing that I was heavily in the photo industry back then, I loved the concept of making one picture out of a ton of smaller, similar subject photos.

Well, flash forward to today and there is a ton of software out there to do this for you.
I am fortunate enough to have about 600+ photos of Leia Bespin from my focus and research alone, so I decided to try to make one for myself.

Well, here is the outcome...
You really need to click the image to open the original image size to understand the scope if it. (NOT just enlarge it, click on the image itself!!!!)

31 Back


My Geisha Leia


What do you think? Cool? Headache inducing?

OH.... and first page was updated with my latest pieces that I haven't bumped the thread with. Everything is there (newest at the bottom) except this mosaic.

anyway..................

cheers!

    

THIS IS F***cking CRAZY!!!!

Just WOW!

hehe... thanks...

Now imagine, Wolff, what kind of mosaics YOU can create!!!!!!!!!!!!
        

Here are 2 more to make you want to try (I have no where near the amount of photos you do!!!) ..........



and

my focus using my focus...


bare in mind, for some of these you need to squint your eyes...... or have a massive monitor..... or just be  chilling................

Very cool stuff and I think I am about to go      
lmao....

I love the fact that my original images translate so well without any effort.

thanks for the nod Wolff!
hehe

cheers!

Those photo mosaics are bloody brilliant Jay!  

The ANDY WARHOL of TIG, nice work bro, you arts sweet as, cheers

haha that photo software is great! Nice effects, Jay.
Just think, in the old days you would've had to do all that by hand as a massive collage, or employ a team to do it for you

wow how can I do this would love to see what my yoda`s come out like,.

Hey sw.1979.

I used a piece of software to create Photo Mosaics. There are a bunch out there, but I used AndreaMosaic from HERE.

It takes a few times to get the results you want and that application has a ton of tweaks.

Anyway.........................................................................

And I wanted to add to my screensaver since I haven't really added any new artwork recently (! need new loose figures!!! I have taken shots of them all now )  and thought my tri-logos might look neat as art and I do think they came out OK - some better than others but I wanted to try to keep a uniform look to them all.














updated page one as well

cheers!

great stuff thanks for the link ,

I added a few more cardback art shots on the first page, but also added these which I like....







It is a 6" Black Series Wave 2 Boba (SWEET figure!!!!!). The first pic is my favorite of the three.

Anyway......... first post updated with everything...........

cheers!
