Iron Man Mode Blog Child's Play Fundraiser

by
  


The fine folks over at the Iron Man Mode Blog are raising funds for that most charitable of charities, Penny Arcade's Child's Play.  For those unfamiliar, Child's Play "seeks to improve the lives of children in hospitals around the world through the kindness and generosity of the video game industry and the power of play".

Last year they raised just shy of $5.1 million that goes directly to helping kids.  Even a buck makes a difference so dig into your PayPal accounts and send 'em something if you can.

All Stitched Up by Carson Catlin

by
Another hottie for the Art Without Borders show, this time from Carson Catlin!





All Stitched Up was created for the "Art Without Borders" show being put on by Art Whino. The challenge was to create something based on a medical theme. My choice was to use the 8" dunny platform with the iconic red cross on its head. The cross was extracted along with all the other pieces. A coat of red paint inside with a bright white exterior followed along with a medical theme. To tie it all together I used red thread and reattached the red cross from earlier. One my favorite pieces. It will retail at $600.00 USD (a portion of the proceeds will go to Doctors Without Boarders) at Art Whino on February 23rd.

Chuck Berry & Coco by Bash

by
Love this one so much, hit Bash up for a Mascot, he has some in stock!

Coco loves to eat sweet berries! That's why she loves to pick Chuck's brains.

Chuck Berry is a wooden boy that lives in the woods of Nersville and is born without a great head of leaves, so his berries are always in the open.

With Coco
stealing his berries... he constantly has to find new ones to keep his head and stay alive!
