Hieronymus Bosch Garden of Earthly Delights 5-inch Resin Figurines

 Dude. These are fucking bananas. Thanks to Go Hero's Steve Forde and the magical majick of Facebook, I stumbled across these pieces which were covered in this Dangerous Minds blog post. Apparently there are over a dozen of these insane characters from the famous Bosch painting which have been turned into resin collectibles. THESE are truly art collectibles in every sense of the word.

$45 each, and they seem to be available on Amazon. Way cool. Reminder that Garden of Earthly Delights was completed in the early 1500s, which means these awesome and twisted characters are over 500 years old. I see these characters as direct ancestors of the current monster / kaiju collectibles that are on the market today. We do love bizarre creatures, don't we? Yes we do. Always have.

Nugglife Hustling with NEW Apparel, Pins, Custom Toys and Paintings

Ian writes:

 

It's been a hectic past 2 months building the Nugglife Brand.  Making the first big move into expanding and becoming more than just an art/toy based company.  For almost 9 months prior to this past NYCC we have been in full motion, expanding into cut n sew clothing.  Expressing the brand in a premium urban designer wear inspired by the New York hustler. We keep the quality of the apparel on the same plane as our art. Relating the two is important to us, and as the series builds it allows us to fully expand bringing our characters lifestyle into apparel.  

Be ready as we have full collab resin pieces and customs dropping the next couple months, and a full winter drop.  Peep all the goodies dropped at NYCC this past month! NYCC 2016 was the first official launch of the Nugglife Brand as whole.

Luke Chueh's Dissected Kickstarter FUNDED

Huge congrats to the Clutter team and to this guy right here
for a successful Kickstarter!

This KS campaign funded the creation of a 6x6x5.5 inch vinyl bear head with a cutaway to reveal a human skull.

I backed this one, I've made it no secret that Luke is one of my favorite artists.

Just wanted to give him a shout and let him know that we are overjoyed with each of his successes.

To learn more about Luke Chueh and his hard-hitting and very personal artwork, check his site here.

Luke also has a show of his painting running right now at Rotofugi. A lot of the pieces have sold, but there are still a few remaining to pick up. Check the page here.

Hellboy 20th Anniversary Art by One-Eyed Girl

Artist Kasey Tararuj, One-Eyed Girl, sent over some pics of a couple of awesome Hellboy pieces. If you haven't heard of Kasey before this, be sure to check out her art and read more about her story. As for the Hellboy art pieces, the pieces were created for a Hellboy Anniversary Show being held at the Hero Complex Gallery in LA. Kasey typically creates works which involve her own created characters and critters, which are pretty awesome. Not one to limit creativity, Kasey is starting to also create pieces based on known characters, but in her own style. The Hellboy and Abe duo seen here, were created using a mini and micro munny. Each piece is well sculpted and seem to be combined(at the top of Hellboy's head) to become a single unique piece. The paint application is indicative of Kasey's style and is wonderfully done. Unfortunately for most collectors, this piece is already sold, but there is a One-Eyed Girl piece from the Hellboy show which is still available.

In addition to the sculpted duo of Hellboy and Abe, Kasey created a One-Eyed Hellgirl 3D painting. This Hellgirl piece is Hellboy in Kasey's own One-Eyed Girl style. Kasey created this fantastic piece using Magic Sculpt, glass eyes, and has been painted using acrylic paints. The frame also is a nice addition, which goes well with all the colors used in the piece. This 3D painting is still available for $225 plus shipping at the Hero Complex Gallery, here. Kasey also has quite a few pieces available in her online store.

Be sure to give Kasey a follow on all of her social media pages:

SekureD Finished Wall Mural at Nike HQ

SekureD has made a giant leap from painted toys to painted walls-  but it's not childs' play, Nike Australia in Melbourne commissioned a wall mural for their HQ. This was SekureD's first large-scale wall mural, spanning more than 12' across. He shares some thoughts on the project;

"Last week I was invited by Nike Australia to come down to their HQ here in Melbourne and paint up an AM90 Mural on canvas for an upcoming conference. Because of OHS concerns I only used spray paint on the initial stages of the background after which the rest of the mural had to be done by hand. The finishing touches were done in front of the conference crowd over a couple of hours and I am stoked with how it has all come together. " -SekureD

You can read more and see more progress shots on SekureD's page here.

SekureD's clean graphic linework translates expertly to large scale paintings, I look forward to seeing more of these!
