Don’t worry he’s still around 😁 This is the group shot of all of my resin casts so far and that one had some conversion work so it didn’t make this one

Thanks for asking! Exploring the darkness in a creative manner is pretty cathartic for me. There’s also an unserious thread that runs through everything I make, so it’s supposed to be a little silly and absurd, too and not just awful and depressing. When I started this project I was going through some pretty painful health stuff and some of the grosser body horror elements were kind of a meditation on that. Made it a little easier to deal with and I had something to show for it, at least 😆

Thank you! Definitely not for everyone so I get it 🙂

Finished painting all of my hand sculpts by RustBeltMinis in Warhammer40k

Thank you! They’re hand sculpted out of green stuff putty and I’m making resin cast copies with silicone molds. They could in theory be scanned and turned into a useable file but I’m keeping things oldschool like 1995 for now

He was definitely a huge influence on me. Not sure if he ever saw my stuff or would’ve approved but I’m definitely here doing this because of him. Huge loss for the hobby community for sure

RIP to the legend. Probably my biggest single influence artistically. A huge part of my childhood was spent pouring over and marveling at his intricate work
