A few months ago I was approached by Bo aka
dunz0 over at
Tilteed, an amazing online t-shirt company that puts up limited edition shirt designs for a specified amount of time. She asked if I wouldn't mid answering a few questions for an interview... and I obliged with a giant grin on my face. It was so much fun to do and an honor to be involved with Tilteed... so if you have a few minutes, head on over
HERE now and give it a read!

Ya see... it does pay to play in all of our FREE GOODIE FRIDAY giveaways, and the proof is in the pudding above as artists and avid reader of SS.com
Alana G. won a sweet KR prize package that included a DIY Munny! She took that Munny and transformed it into one of my all-time favorite video game characters "Guybrush Threepwood" of Monkey Island fame, who is equipped with a rubber chicken/pulley... gotta know the game to get the reference :-)! Awesome job on the custom, and thanks for sharing Alana!

As odd of a title that is, I am sure
Paul would approve seeing as it's basically what he wrote on his website with the above silhouetted picture. What could this be... a new original figure, a collaboration with an old one, a custom... who knows with Paul, but one thing is certain... it's gonna rock!

It's been a couple weeks now since our last post
HERE where we saw some really cool vinyl test shots of French artist
Stan's kaiju"Kondo" figure, and today we have even more visual goodies including the smokey clear gray vinyl, a GID version, and a red vinyl version that is going to be used as a base for the colored produced figure... soon to be released! This figure stands 7.8" tall, looks to have 5 points of articulation and looks so great! I really can't wait to see these in person. There is no word on a price yet, but I am sure those details will be revealed shortly!

Josh "f+" Pearce completed a ton of customs already this year and seeing as we are just into February... I don;t see this custom train slowing down anytime soon. In fact these 3 customs are HUGE feats of work seeing as he tackled a Giant Skuttle he is calling “
Titan Et Mortalitas”, a Coarse Toys JAWS dubbed "
Ravenwing Slayer", and a custom Ajee Skullskin named "
The Huntress"! Out of the 3 above I think my favorite is the custom Skullskin... pretty epic if you ask me! These were all commissions and have already found new homes... if your interested in some custom pieces by Josh hit him up via his site
HERE... but be warned, there is a waiting list... well worth the wait though :-)

Gearing up for this Saturday...
Dragatomi is proud to be playing host to "
Girls Night Out" which is going to feature works from three of the hardest working ladies in the art/toy scene:
Lunabee,
Julie West and
Sneaky Raccoon! Today we are getting some exclusive peeks at
Lunabee's submissions for this show... and wow she really out did herself! All the way from the UK Sarah completed a whopping 10+ pieces for this show... all of which feature her fantastic paint pallet and unreal characters. One of the great things about her body of work is that it translates so well to each platform she works on... and that's really apparent in the picture above... in fact if I had the cash, I would buy these all up... imagine that collection :-) With custom names like "Colias", "Felis", "Hydrophis", and "Nivalis" this show promises to deliver some stellar work! Slated to open on Saturday, February 12th 2011, this will be a show you don't want to miss. More previews will come in shortly and when they do, they will be posted up! Oh and if you don't want to miss out on purchasing any of these... be sure to sign up for Dragatomi's mailing list
