Socha a King Ken custom by MAp-MAp

So many details on such a small piece. I personally think that this platform is not the easiest to work with since it is quite hard plastic. Awesome piece!

Socha
Built to defend the forests from the two foots Socha has completed it's task perfectly. So perfectly that now it performs more basic tasks, such as shaking fruit trees, digging up Ant colonies. Some may say it now completes all tasks. Custom 3.5" King ken using epoxy putty and acrylic paint

Gardian Tequila Custom by MAp-MAp

Amazing custom Tequila from MAp-MAp...


Slowly roaming the land with a thud, Gardian wanders around the edge of cities plucking any orphan he comes across, and plopping them on his back. Once in the tiny community of Gardian's gigantic back these orphans don't really have much to do, following the same daily routine. Stare at the world that plods and rumbles around them, maybe draw what they see, then roam in the small gap between sunset and nightfall when Gardian sits down for some sleep. This slow life almost forces all of Gardian's orphans into consuming ever drop of knowledge they can find, from the bookshelves inside the backshack, along with Gardian's slow but insightful words.Once an orphan grows up and becomes a little too heavy to carry they'll normally jump off at the next city Gardian skirts past, and live a content life. The rare few carry Gardian's torch as a wandering carer, although what they care for varies wildly depending on their size and strength.
