Finally Josh Mayhem has created a piece of art in the 3.75” action figure format.
Blown Away Trooper by Josh Mayhem
Hand painted customized vintage 3.75" carded figure
Signed and numbered edition of 50
$125
Bio: Josh Mayhem's lifelong habit of collecting children's playthings has fueled his passion for transforming said toys into objects d'art. Embracing both order and chaos as inspiration points, Mayhem's mixed media 'art toys' tend to be created in two contrasting styles: intricate, detailed assemblages comprised of Japanese model kit parts, and more free-flowing, expressionist sculptures. Among his best-known pieces are those constituting his “Blown Away” series, in which mass-produced forms are covered in strands of resin and layers of acrylic paint to create gravity-defying drips that give the impression of the work being deconstructed by a strong wind. The popularity of this direction has led to Mayhem being nominated for Designer Toy Awards, participating in TRASHed: Art of Recycling at Coachella Festival, representation by the Corner12 agency, and continuing partnerships with the premiere worldwide creator and dealer of limited edition art toys, Kidrobot.

The 3D Hero himself (Tavvon Reynolds) has gone completely insane with his new fascination with terror and villainy, combining it with his first loves of all things cute & all things mech. Sticking to his very industrialized and dystopian style Hero sculpted these critters atop of 2 Dunny cyborg bases. Word has it that these are the first in a new series that the Hero is creating; each one to be more mind-blowing than its predecessor. If the Battle Bunnies are just the tip of the iceberg, may the gods have mercy on the citizens of 3D Hero City.
Cobalt Battle Bunny and Scarlet Scrapper are both available for purchase here. For the latest updates follow The 3D Hero on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

Italian based pop surreal painter Simona Candini created an exclusive collection of new work for PIQ of her favorite complex women that will hang from 09/29-10/12. Applying her signature theme of the light vs. dark and meticulous painting style, Simona selected her favorite pop culture hero and villains to express the power of femininity. The show features ten original paintings, six oils and four mixed treatment watercolors. Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman, Danerys, and all of her ladies show confidence, conflict, and a fighting spirit in their large expressive eyes.
To compliment the details and energy of each canvas, Simona hand painted one-of-a-kind ornate frames that become part of the story of each subject. In addition to the original paintings there will be six more pop heroines in limited edition glicee canvas prints. The show opens 6:00 Friday Sept 29 at PIQ Grand Central Terminal and will continue through October 12.
Preview the show at PIQgifts.com, where Simona Candini's paintings will be available for sale starting the 28th at 7:00pm.
