Worked on a few new colors for my Moai and Reverb God pendants. Also, after mentioning here that I wasn't going to make anymore full color Max pendants, I have received several requests for them both here and on facebook. I have taken a few orders and listed it at my store (although current inventory is 0). I've priced it at $35 shipped within the U.S. I'm afraid that's the best I can do as painting this pendant in full color takes me quite a bit of time. A monotone version is available for $20. Also primed a few other stuff today!

Monster Cast. Used in the SFX industry. I use it all the time. It paints quite nicely, cures in 5 minutes, and you can paint it with just about anything. Also, it can be tinted easily with So-Strong pigment from Smooth-On. It's an off white to begin with. Almost a tan. You could dry brush it with brown acrylic and have at it. It drills well if you're careful while drilling, and is pretty tough. It's cheaper than the stuff you can get from TPI. You can get it from Monster Makers. If you'd like, I can snap a few photos of pieces I have at work tomorrow. |

Would love to see a few pics. How does it hold the paint though? The reason I don't want to do these in resin is that sooner or later the paint ribs off. The Dry Stone I use seems to hold up nicely. |

Hey Robert, are those metal signs likely to be "outdoor safe"? My tiki space is on the lanai which has kind of limited my art choices to ceramic and wood. It would be nice to have another option. |

I've been getting a few requests via PM's asking about a list for my mug. Initially I didn't intend to reserve any spots, I was thinking I'd just list them on my store when available. I've changed my mind on this and am going ahead and compiling a list of names in order of the date the request was sent. So here is what I currently have. If you'd like to be added please PM me and I will. The mug will be limited to the life of the mold and they will be numbered. If you are on the list and change your mind just let me know. No one will be asked to pay until the mug is ready to ship. 1.PROFESSOR G Thanks!

Received my metal signs proofs. I'm really happy with them. They are 12x18. One is on aluminum and the other is printed on wood. The wood print is much more faded and worn looking. I have another set coming in that is a more traditional tin sign. More details soon! |

Thanks guys! Appreciate the comments. The sign is made using the dye-sub process. It's an ink transfer that get's a dose of UV light to seal and dry it. It's very durable and weather resistant to some extent. The one in the pic has sold! |

Revised Mug List: 1.PROFESSOR G Here's some info on the mug: John Mulder is working on them as we speak and they will come to me in waves of 10 or so. The mug will be limited to the life of the mold, anywhere between 40-70 pieces. It will list at $49 + shipping. Being on the list does not commit you to buy. I'll invoice via paypal when they are ready to ship and you can pay then (or pass). I will also offer a hand painted version. Not sure of the price for that though... More info soon! Thanks!

"I'll be doing some of my Tiki pieces in metal." My vote is for Moolight Offering, Moonlight on Ku, Lava Falls, Fisherman's God's Dilemma not necessarily in that order. |

What a great concept! And if you don't like their color or tiki choice you could make your own from Sculpty clay. Hmmm... I need a new key for the Tahitian Cannibal trailer :D |
