"Swamp Vulturite Bernard" from Brian Colin
Brian Colin has been busy in his laboratory, creating customs and painting and stepping into a new realm... casting his own figure! Introducing "Swamp Vulturite Bernard", a super cool taxidermy like creature that he based on from the character "Skeksis" from The Dark Crystal movie. This figure sits mounted to a plaque and for the first run he created 10 of these. He has documented the majority of the process and tells about how he did it, as well as keep a really great photolog. Each piece will be hand painted and be available starting February 5 at Alcove Gallery for a 3 man show he will be involved with. For more images and info hit up his site HERE!

Original art from Brian Ewing, get it while you can!!
Brian Ewing rarely sell's his originals, and rarely does he have time to do commissions, so here's a chance to get yer mitts on a piece of original art. It took a lot to let go of them. (You've seen Hoarders, right?) They're like his babies so love 'em like there's no tomorrow. Pricing will range from $20 through $1000+. Every piece is shipped insured (US only - otherwise email me) and comes with the print or merch that the art was used for. This rarely happens so there will be quite a few to choose from... to see the full list with prices go HERE!

Onorio DEPIRO's new "Metal Soldiers"
We first saw Onorio Depiro work when he created his awesome "Rusty Robot" HERE, and now he has done it again! He just completed a new design that he calls "Metal Soldiers" and this creation is made with Poly clay combined with metal/plastic and rust powders! Keep in mind this piece is all 100% hand made, stands 6" tall, and ready to rock. He is still in the works of getting his first piece mass produced, and maybe we can look forward to seeing this one in the same fashion... either way he has got something going for him with these robots, the style, the design, it is all top notch. For more images hit up his Flickr HERE and you can also visit his Blog HERE!

Twilight fans "MOPE" by WinterArtwork on TeeFury
At first I was like, why is Drew Barrymore looking so sad, and then I realized this is the stupid girl from Twilight... hahaha, this shirt is so emo! TeeFury is an awesome website that sells T-shirts for $9 a pop...the only catch is that it is only on sale for 24hours and then the next T-shirt is posted up! I have seen awesome shirts by some amazing artists on here and the total purchase price is $11. So that is $9 for the Tee and $2 for the shipping...that is an awesome deal that can't be beat! I will try and post the shirts up daily, or you can go visit the site yourself!
Money does go back to the artist and after today, this t-shirt will be Gone FOREVER! Today artist earns $1 for every tee sold. So make sure you get over there if yer diggin the design!
