    Custom figures and dioramas

    Okay, it's the Toy Story image found on this page: http://gwgumby.110mb.com/Art/VariantContest/pagegumby.htm Which I found at this site: http://gwgumby.110mb.com/Sketch-Art3.htm Alex

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Trying again... And for some reason, when I did that, the previous post's image works, too. Sorry for those reading this in the future who don't understand why it's on here twice. If we could only go back and edit our posts after the first hour expires, I'd have just fixed the one above. Alex

    Dearth/Alex's Customs and Dioramas v2

    I was on the phone with a friend earlier and described the Snake Walker costume to him, he suggested this figure from the Shadowrun line, although it's only about 5" tall. This is the Street Deacon Vigilante. And wouldn't you just know it... my buddy had one last week but just sold it on eBay...

    Gonzo Vinylmation

    Cool. Did they use a dimensional nose on the 9" figure, or was it just painted on? So, they sell just blank Vinylmations? Alex

    Custom figures and dioramas

    I gave my Steppin' Out Lew a little rose on his ruff collar, to make it a tiny bit closer to the way he looks when dressed like this in The Muppets Go To The Movies. If I come across the little bag of fabric roses from Hobby Lobby, I'll mail you one for your Lew. I was doing a search just now...

    Dearth/Alex's Customs and Dioramas v2

    Snake just seems like such a broad character, almost a living cartoon or a human Muppet himself. With Doc Hopper, I'd be worried about finding a good likeness of Charles Durning. Another dream project of mine is a set of Manhattan Melodies customs. I just found this image in Jim Henson: The...

    Would like to see the Lew custom. Got any pics?

    Need help finding Jim Henson looking in mirror with Kermit in the reflection picture

    The book is a weird shape to scan, so I had to do it in two pieces and then reassemble them. I also painted out the page number, which was inside a six-petaled flower shape. In the original book, it's slightly crooked and oddly cropped, so this is about the best I can do with that source...

    Dearth/Alex's Customs and Dioramas v2

    I had this idea two nights ago at work, and it keeps nibbling around the edges of my consciousness... I want to make a custom Snake Walker action figure! So, I'm thinking he needs to be at minimum about 6.5" tall, but he could be a little bigger. My first thought was an old Gabriel "Lone...

    Muppet/Star Wars figures revealed at SW Weekends

    Sorry, Rowlfy, these are Disney Parks-exclusive merchandise. Even for those of us here in America, it's tricky to nab them. To illustrate, even though I am only one state over from Florida, where Walt Disney World is located, the bulk of my theme park exclusives come from a friend in California...

    "The Muppets: Fuzzy Pack" Teaser Trailer On-line

    So as I went to bed last night, I noticed blearily that my youngest son had scrambled the Rubik's Cube that's on my nightstand. When I woke up just now, I spent a few minutes restoring it back to solid, using muscle memory and the steps in a book that I memorized in the 80's and still recall at...

    Dearth/Alex's Customs and Dioramas v2

    Once they're uploaded, just cut and paste the image, that works too. I like ToyStory-- in fact I like most Disney movies and pretty much all of the Pixar ones. Most of my Disney collection, though, centers around the theme park exclusives. I've got complete collections of the Haunted Mansion...

    Dearth/Alex's Customs and Dioramas v2

    Never seen those! Neat! He's got a few details on the helmet looking off-model, and the body proportions could be better, but I gotta give him points on using an egg slicer for the chest box. Alex

    Wanted: Pigs in Space Computer Screens

    I have some extras, but not a complete set. I bought three Swinetreks from Amazon for $16 each, just to get the First Mate Piggy's as custom fodder. Two friends of mine wanted the playsets to display their Dr. Who Cybermen, bought those off me for $10 each, so it was like getting the Piggy's for...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    Thanks for a quick analysis, especially in the wee hours of the morning. Prior to biting the bullet and doing this in video, my first attempt last week was a WordPad document with frame caps where I was figuring out where things went. I titled it 'Muppets 2011 - Connecting the Dots'. I did...

    Muppet/Star Wars figures revealed at SW Weekends

    Hey guys, remember those official pics that I linked above? Well, in the article (http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2011/06/the-force-is-strong-with-the-muppets-at-disney-parks/) it mentioned that the pics were taken on the desk of a guy for whom-- simply by chance-- I already had the...

    I finally just had to 'customize' the four trailers for The Muppets (2011). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSYQewcJLKY Alex

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    Okay folks, I finally just had to do it... I recut the four trailers into more or less linear order, based on the announced plot and mainly the visual cues. There's a lot of speculation involved here, and several clips that had no definite spot just wound up going wherever I needed filler...
