The making-of concludes! Part one is here.
With all the painting done, the final parts were readied for assembly. Then it was time to break out the needle nose pliers and superglue!
The making-of continues in Part two! Part one is here.
Time for some bling! A few small holes were drilled into the figure around the ankles and wrist to allow chain, wire and accessories to connect securely and seamlessly. At this point I assembled all of my metal pieces for placement and fitting. This was all done prior to painting so that threading chains and fitting roughed out sharp metal shapes wouldn’t ruin the finish.

I often get requests to do some behind the scenes ‘making-of’ posts like I did for Milo & Ditch or the Android figures. They’re fun to do, and I managed to document the process of this particular project pretty well, so here we go again for my custom of Ferg’s Misfortune Cat for the recent show at Munky King.
Well the cat is (literally) out of the bag! Ferg’s 9″ Misfortune Cat from the Playge line gets the custom treatment from a talented lineup of artists including Chris Ryniak, MCA , MAD and more! Unfortunately I will be unable to make it in person due to New York Comic-Con, but if you are on the west coast, be sure to stop by. More pics and maybe a behind-the-scenes for kitty in the week after the show.
Oh and keep 3 eyes out for a 4″ production version of this guy!

See the Work In Progress over here…
Here we come to the end of the Three Strikes project! I had hoped to make it a little fancier, but deadlines are deadlines and plans had to be adjusted accordingly. It turned out to be pretty simple and sweet, hopefully you enjoy it!
Come see it in person, Tonight through the 15th only! Sold already, sorry!
(Part 2 can be found here)
Masking time! Here I’ve cut a small heart shape into an adhesive vinyl frisket. I protected the surrounding area and sprayed a few light coats.
People told me that they enjoyed my behind-the-scenes of Milo And Ditch earlier this year, so I thought I’d do a little one for my Munnyworld figure. This isn’t quite as involved, but still fun to share the work. Munnyworld opens this Thursday and runs through the 15th.
We start out with a big ole blank 20″ MUNNY figure that Kidrobot was nice enough to send months in advance. I, of course, did not get around to working on it until a few days before deadline. Woops.
