| The Gaurdian of Devotion by Deeten |
This unbelievably detailed and intricate custom Munny is the brainchild of Deeten. Created for the Heart Strings Valentine's Day show at SubUrban Vinyl, the figure is made from vinyl (obviously), metal, wood, clay, acrylics and even clam shell! This piece is still available at SubUrban Vinyl. Get it for your sweetheart. Or you.

B.A.L.D. is now accepting preorders for a Valentine's Day-themed limited series of customs he's calling "Crazy Love." The customs will be composed of Super Sculpey, leather and acrylics.
For those who know, love is crazy and it sometimes breaks you...
The pieces can be preordered here in the CTU store. Only 5 preorder slots available, so if you're going to pick up a special custom for that special someone, act quickly!

Just arrived from I Heart Guts is this much-enlarged 11-inch tall version of their extremely popular Heart plush. I Heart Guts makes plushies that are actually in the shape, approximate size and sort-of general color scheme of each organ in your body (I think they take a few liberties with the colors to make them brighter). Their Heart plush consistently sells out in our shop and they've recently reworked that plush to enlarge it (no longer is it actual size; the new Humongous Heart is about twice as big as a healthy human heart!).
The best part about this new version is it's actually LESS expensive (by $1) than the old version: $18 for an 11-inch plush heart. This version even has some heavier material in the bottom so it wants to stand up in the proper way. The Humongous Heart makes an excellent abnd affordable gift for your special someone on Valentine's Day. Don't you want to show them how humongous your love is for them? Buy yours here.

For that very special someone, artist David Foox has created a work of art that is limited to a very small number of pieces. His own heart painted using heavy duty acrylic (hand mixed from powder to liquid by the artist,) on top of an X-Ray of his chest. The number of pieces are directly related to the amount of radiation he is able to withstand in a year and are done for this year's Valentine's Day. "I hope I don't get sick and need any more X-Rays, cause according to my doctor I am not allowed any more radiation!", says FOOX describing his Valentine's Day special series of Hearts.
With his heart broken so many times, FOOX has decided that his heart would be best kept in the possession of someone else. "Since it keeps getting broken and stitched up while in my care, I thought it best to hand over to the next guard," says FOOX of the motivation to create this work of art for Valentine's Day.
In addition this series addresses the immediate and pressing concerns of today's healthcare demands on society and acts as a bell weather for the changing state of US healthcare. Artists like making statements about society and here FOOX says "Don't ignore the issues of US Health Care, deal with them head on and make a difference!" He continues in his lilting Kiwi accent. "You can't give more than your heart to someone - and this is as raw as it gets"
Each piece comes framed in a backlit box and exudes a very spooky and personal quality about it. "Imagine having your very own heart painted on top of an X-Ray of your body," continues FOOX in talking about his work. This project is limited to only eight X-Ray films, each hand painted and unique. If you are interested in giving one of these to your true love, move fast, they may already be sold out. With a price tag of $3,000 per Heart, they're nothing to sneeze (or cough) at.
PS: FOOX reports that as soon as he is able to withstand more radiation, he will do a 4th of July series of eight back x-rays with the spine painted. “America needs a little back bone right about now,” says FOOX.
Edition: 8
Dimensions: 20" x 17" x 3"
Medium: X-Ray Film, Acrylic, Light Box
