    and here is a picture of #39 he was a last minute spray for DCON, so last minute I never got a pic before I left... had to ask the owner to snag a pic after.

    Been a while for me yeah? busy with the kid, and trying to get back in shape... not a lot of down time... Decided I was going to fully knock one out though just before SDCC. Wish I would of remembered to take some studio photos, but I finished the paint 1 day before I left, and silicone'd the marble in literally 4-5 hours before my flight so it was not possible.

    #43 "For P.K" was made as a gift for paul.

    It's glittery silver vinyl, sprayed with the following translucent colors. green, blue, red, pink, brown, and yellow. then some actual color of golden gravy, silver, white, charcoal and slime were used as well. black and gray acrylic. top coated... one for the first customs i decided not to use any pearl or moon dust on... the silver vinyl just top coated with the translucent colors really made it pop enough to where I needed to add any other effect. the middle was cut out and sanded for smoothness, and a glass blown white marble/swirled and blown into clear glass was silicone'd in the center. Paul seemed to really like it, so that really made my day.

    I've finished a few since the last time, but never posted... doubt i even took good pictures...

    Here's my Pollen Kaiser custom for the upcoming TAG Anniversary show.

    I swapped out the staff for an aluminum, that i polished out to a chrome like shine. added my own doll eye as well.

    #60 Beauty is in the eye...

    Seriously, insanely gorgeous, Mike- easily in my top three faves thus far, and there have been so many great ones. I'm trying to keep a file of all the preview pics people are putting up- very happy to add these to it! Inspiring, Sir!

    nice job Ecko! I like whatever it is that you did on the rear green area.
    dont think I've seen a technique like that on a toy before.
