Artist Crestone got down on yet another Three A figure... loving those custom Bertie's I see :-) unlike the last custom Bertie he did HERE, this time around he went all out this custom titled "BigRed". CrestOne created the massive gun and very detailed backpack from scratch giving this custom some serious attitude, and I really dig it!

“Magnus Maximus” a solo exhibition from Joe Ledbetter open tonight Friday June 4th 2010 and exhibited until June 23 at the Corey Helford Gallery. Ledbetter creates an extraordinary collection of new paintings and drawings, filled with engaging narratives and bold visuals that are as autobiographical as they are a classic hero story. A true tale of wretched victory, “Magnus Maximus” is a character study in twists of fate and fortune, power and privilege.
[PRESS] Recognized worldwide for his combinations of cute and cuddly creatures with unfortunate — albeit humorous — situations, Ledbetter takes his work to new heights for the exhibition. Pushing his craftsmanship and design aesthetic further than before, he employs a lighter color palette of pure whites and pale hues on blonde wood panels, and he introduces baroque embellishments, inspired old world European architecture and design.
For “Magnus Maximus”, Ledbetter’s artistic career culminates in an unforgettable body of new work, which he explains “represents an artistic odyssey. The preparation for all my solo exhibitions have been journeys in their own right, ripe with adversaries, angels, self-doubt, sacrifice, bliss, despair, hope, stress, rapture, joy, shame, blood, sweat and tears. But the Magnus Maximus art journey went well beyond any previous show.
