More custom creations from Leecifer...
Every time Leecifer sends me pictures of his customs... my honest first reaction is "Are you kidding me with these" because I am in awe of how dope his work is... always, and above you can see just what I am saying with his rad "Lcfr'ed Dragon Boy" and "Golden Lcfr Labbit" both done as commissions, and how lucky those owners are! the paint application and the color choices that Lee just fit so well together, and the additional sculpting done on the Labbit just puts it over the top, smokin hot! I also love the little "Billy Bronze" figure accomping the Dragon Boy. Great work Lee!

"Sweet Dreams My Love" custom Sketchbot from artist Brent Nolasco
Brent Nolasco is seriously stepping up his game this year in the customizing realm... not that he was a slouch to begin with... but honestly all the customs so far this year from him have been AMAZING, and this custom Sketchbot is no exception! This piece he is calling "Sweet Dreams My Love" will be part of the Sketchbot custom show at MyPlasticHeart in New York on March 26th. This custom really takes the Sketchbot form and transforms it into something to totally unique and different, and to find this laying in a puddle or a birdbath would totally freak me out for sure :-) Brent used Ave Sculpt, Wood, Plastic, Screws, Nails, Found Objects, and Acrylic Paint to create this fallen demon, and boy I can't look at it enough, bravo dude, and keep the fantastic work coming!

Dynomight NYC: Our Hero, APPRENTICE!
The guys over at Dynomight NYC are proud to announce their latest, and greatest project that has been 13 years in the making, and it is smokin hot!! This figure titled "Our Hero, APPRENTICE!" is a new resin figure standing at approximately 6" tall and will be hand painted by J-ROO of Dynomight NYC! The APPRENTICE pieces were manufactured and sculpted by the very talented Julie B from Pretty in Plastic, who just about has her hands in everything now days... and a good thing because everything she touches is GOLD! J-ROO goes on to explain that this has been "A video game/comic concept that has been in my sketchbooks since college...1997 to be exact". The first set will be extremily limited... in fact on 10 pieces worldwide, and the really cool part about the release is that they plan on keeping them "competitively" priced to most high end vinyl pieces.. under $100, pretty great for a hand painted 6" resin figure with what appears to have multiple points of articulation?
More information will be revealed about APPRENTICE and his ever expansive universe closer to the release date... but until them you can follow the guys, and even APPRENTICE on twitter... awesome!
