About this time last year we were wrapping up our Sonic figures for @sega - we made just under 30 of these for select members of Team Sonic! Some really specific brand guidelines for this blue dude: there are always seven stripes on the shoe soles and all evenly spaced out. We went through about six variants of eye angles before it was perfect. Fortunately, we got the blue right pretty quickly!
I don't think I ever posted any up close shots of the finished project, just a quick reel showing off some of the process. Here's some details, hope you enjoy!

The holy grail of illumination in propmaking is smooth, even light with no hot spots or visible light source. I couldn't be happier with the glow we got on our recent @brawlhalla trophies!
2D concept: Megan James (meggoart on bsky)
3D modeling: @squiby_props
I was really happy with the ekko hoverboard we made at @volpinprops . Took 3 days to paint using a set of custom speed masks and handpainting. It was interesting trying to mimic the #arcane artstyle using a different method. Layering many different shapes at different opacities to give the hammered junk metal look. I think the end results looked very good. 3d model by Jill Cope #props #replicas #riotgames #leagueoflegends
Was so glad to finally get out in my #alanwake2 cosplay. It was a lot of fun to go around at #dragoncon. Got some shots thanks to my friend @idspuds_ . I fell in love with this game, shout out to @remedygames for writing such a good story, and Def want to bring Alan out again in the future.

Had the honor of helping make this big cocoon for the Miquella statue for #eldenring and @bandainamcous . I did texture application and painting on the cocoon along with the other artist at @volpinprops

Armored Core display replica made by Volpin Props : I got to be project lead and lead painter, was a big undertaking, but I am really happy with the work of the whole team and the results of our effort. Had the help of @zerogprops@odinx269@nonbinate@matthewjlevin on bodyshop and paint work, @jill.c_3d for digital modeling, Harrison ( @volpinprops ) for co lead and having a hand in every step and welding the frame structure. @whimsydealer for project management.

It has been quite a while, but I am actually working on a new figure to add to the skullgirls roster. Ms. Fortune will be available soon-ish.

I finished up a special commission this week. This is a fully painted 11in tall version of my Squigly Figurine. I am really happy with how it came out.

Playing with colors on my bats. This clear and red swirl looks so cool under UV light.
