This website is about any and everything that sparks the creative genius in all of us. By profession I am a Graphic Designer, and enjoy all aspects of design. From traditional to urban from resin to vinyl, these are all great mediums and deserve to be explored. On top of that everything from music to movies from guns to graffiti.
David was kind enough to send over some awesome first shots of his up coming vinyl figure titled Fetch - Peet and Barnaby, this set includes Peet with interchangeable stick and leash to throw/walk his beloved pet Barnaby...although Barnaby does not seem to act like he wants to do any of these activities. These are going to be produced through Strangekiss, the same company that produced his ZOG figure last year...and did an amazing job I might add!
This figure is going to be limited to 500pcs and will hopefully be ready for SDCC09...and we might also see an artist colorway during that time as well, so keep your fingers crossed. Click HERE for more info on Strangkiss/David Lanham releases

This is the latest custom that I did for Dunny trade 10 on the Kidrobot boards. This was an invite only trade that we as artists were tasked with customizing an 8" Dunny(R.I.P. Eggy). This was alot of fun to be a part of and this creation went to board member Voidxx. I took a bunch of "W.I.P" work in progress pictures so if you are interested in seeing how I made this...click HERE! I have to give credit to my sister for coming up with the name, and I thought I would add how hard it was to find an arrowhead foir the spear tip...that was the toughest part...hahaha, ENJOY!
Giant Robot is proud to present Bruised, Beaten and Blackened by Mike "Le Merde" Kelly at GR2. This show is running until March 11th, so get over and check out all the goods!
Le Merde has gained a rabid following in the limited-edition figure scene with his molten and oozing but cute style. Often lost in the shadows of his sculptural work are the Portland artist's equally colorful paintings, which also reference a loving appreciation of underground comix, Japanese horror manga, and rock 'n' roll.
This show, the artist explains, is all about his characters mixing it up. "My world of characters is mostly in two camps: fans of the band ZEU and fans of the band MISTY FOG. They take loyalty to the deep end, and the show is about these guys working out their thoughts and opinions through the art of taking it outside." The manly arts of heavy metal and fighting are celebrated in more than 30 one-off figures and 6-7 paintings of different sizes and media.
If you are unable to make the show, you can go HERE to make a purchase of these amazing custom resin figures...alot are sold out, but if you hurry you might get lucky and snatch one up for yourself!
ORGAN DONORS is a vinyl toy concept that I really fell in love with. The idea actually came to me when a member of my wife's family had to have a double lung transplant. He has had Cystic Fibrosis since the day he was born and he was lucky enough to get a set of lungs from an Iron Man athlete. Someone's lungs helped this family member to live longer than ever expected. It was practically a miracle! This miracle was the seed for the ORGAN DONORS by FOOX vinyl toy series.
All ORGAN DONORS come individually packaged in a blind box with foil wrap on the inside - meaning, it is a surprise as to which ORGAN DONOR you will receive- no peeking! Some ORGANS are more rare than others (Lion Heart, Purple Heart, etc) and all come wearing the vinyl hospital gown with the butt cheeks showing.
* 3.25 inches vinyl * 24 Colorways * 9 Organs * 5 Points of Articulation on each vinyl figures

Jason Levesque, aka Stuntkid, describes himself as an "illustrator of girls, squids and all things icky". His artwork has hung on the walls of the recent Audrey Kawasaki-curated show at Thinkspace, adorns the cover of Comic Book Tattoo Tales and has been splayed across the inside pages of German latex fetish magazines.
Check out his interview to find out about his Playstation addiction and his love of photoshoots with models covered in latex and syrup.
His two pieces for Infectious, Loose Lips and The Next Big Wave, come in vinyl art to cover your laptop, iPhone and Nano, Touch and Classic iPods. And all come in prices that are easy to swallow.
Our Spring/Summer 2009 collection is "Know Your Destination". Some people wander through life not knowing where they are headed or how they will get there. Although the message can be said to parallel religion, this collection focuses on the choices that people make that put them on the path to their destination; be it the high road or the low road. To each their own, everyone has a reason for their choices and you can't knock someone for the choices they make if you haven't been in their shoes.
The Low Road The Necromancer and Envee Skull tee's focus on the darker path. Everyone has skeletons in their closet, some come out to creep the night and some stay in the darkness, plotting and sneaking. Can you suppress your inner demons? Death is a challenge. It tells us not to waste time. When the body sinks into death, the essence of man is revealed.
The Middle Road The Legendary tee spotlights the battle between the high and low road. Let everyone that you see, know you mean business and you are something legends are made of.
The High Road The Evolved Essence and Guardian Angel tee's focus on the high road (avail. in Women's as well). Someone once said “Change is the essence of life. Be willing to surrender what you are for what you could become.” Live your life as you would like to be remembered. Guardian Angels are thought to be spiritual beings that are "assigned" to assist people here on Earth in various ways. Whether there is one angel per person, one angel for several person or several angels for one person is open to question. But whether you believe in them or not, or whether you want one or not, believers insist that you do have a guardian angel.
