Just recently joined this site and wanted to show off some of the recent kits that I have sculpted, molded, and produced. I'm a professional sculptor/ mold maker for Sally Corporation. We build dark rides for theme parks. I make movie props on the side as a hobby.:bashful:

Welcome - very interesting work!
I like the painting on the goat-llama-thingy! Very natural!
Please - You must show us a photo of your workshop!

Sorry - now I see it is a Taun-Taun - silly me!

Thanks, I do sell all of the above. Wasn't sure of the rules for posting for sale items here, so new to the site. PM me for details. Based out of Jacksonville, FL.

My workshop is my kitchen and garage and out back. Wish I had a professional studio to do my work. I work at a full scale production facility for building animatronic robots and props, murals, etc.. for dark rides. But when I get home my wife complains about the clay stuck to the kitchen floor(where I sculpt at home). I have a room set up for art but then she complains when I'm back there. She is very supportive though and is my biggest fan, even let me install the taun taun in the living room(temporarily).

Yes, I'm currently working on a Micheal Jackson zombie bust. Have thread for that. Or did you mean you wanted to see wip pics of the other stuff? This is what the appleseed helmet looked like in the begining.
