    So what's the difference between dead and alive? the resin colour?

    I always imagined the poison and never the cat. Cute rendition.

    dead cats being painted...!

    there are 2 sculpts, one alive and one dead...both cast in black resin.

    it's certainly a race to the finish, but we should have them ready at dcon, hot off the workbench. there's been a ridiculous number of setbacks so far in production...including my printer taking a sudden crap. i'm off to buy a new one right now and get the box design finalized...

    cheers!

    That must have been a ridiculously expensive license. How did you pull that off? I can't imagine McDonalds is into stuff like this.

    holy fucking spot on rip-off of the design. Just stating the obvious.

    Could have saved money on the molds and materials- just buy Sculpey and black spray paint next time.

    ...and 50 Happy Meal toys. Well, ok, maybe you wouldn't save that much.

    WOW!

    Dcon was amazing. We had a great time and met so many cool folks, and frankly we’re a little exhausted. OK, a LOT exhausted...

    Totally worth it. Thanks everyone who not only picked up a cat (or two!), but took the time to stop by the booth and chat. Butch, Leecifer, Computerhair... I'm looking at you (with heavy frankenstein eyelids, but still). Cheers!

    Remaining kitties are now for sale in our shop: http://manekinekro.bigcartel.com/
    at $20 each. “Science vs. Fate” in the palm of your hand!

    I'm going back to bed now.

    The pleasure was mine! Crazy we had to go way down there for a conversation.
    I will have to do better at local contact.
    Wait there's booze? I'm on my way!!!

    for the love of paint, yes, we need to get a meetup together soon, even a small one...

    i know scheduling is a pain, but let's try it again before wondercon ?!?
    speaking of which... i'd love to split a 10 x 10 for March if anyone is interested. it's not that i can't fill one, it's just stupid expensive to do alone...

    THANK YOU! orders will ship out by friday, y'all...the support is deeply appreciated.

    cheers!
