Here's Pepper - coming soon (with removable corn hair)
I meet the lovely Triplikid this weekend at the con in New York - top chat and I managed to score one of these sweet resins, LUSH! Had to get busy as soon as I had time to give him a coat of UME paint.

One thing that I will tweak is the length of the handle - an extra inch or so to help when the final is mounted.
Looking forward to casting a couple of these up for her in resin and making them up.

I'm always being told that I never make anything for the family, so as its Mrs UME's birthday coming up I thought I'd get in her good book. I'm making a Mary Poppins umbrella parrot head :-) I've already cut down the brolly and it's full steam ahead. Once I've nailed the sculpt I'll make a mould so I can make her 2 resin versions, one classic and another either a zombie or crow :-) I will post up WIP as I go.

As well as the toy making I must admit I do love to scribble :-D I don't get to do it as much as I would like these days. So the other night I took a couple of hours out to dust of the sketch book and get some lines down - this chap was for @argonautresins
