Signed and numbered, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The price of the print is $300, shipping in the US is $20, $50 international.

  • aotd: “Pretty Strange, Strange Pretty”

    pretty_strange__strange_pretty_by_meluseena.jpg
    Today’s piece is from French artist Lisa Falzon, otherwise known as Meluseena. She works both digitally, as well a traditionally. I think her style transfers over quite well.

    I really dig the look of the piece, the face being so stylized. It really is a unique looking face. I love portrait work, and when the artist can make the face look like something we have never seen before, it’s even better.

    Check out the rest of Lisa’s work here:

  • Ashley Wood’s “World War Robot” preview

    desert_bertie_piantjob.jpgI’ve been watching Ashley’s blog for a while, to find out exactly what this “WWR” project is. Well, they now have a preview image of this very cool collectible.

    It will be called “WWR Release 1.0 Rothchild Mechanics P-57 AKA Bertie the Pipebomb”. This robot will hit the stores April 2008. I really dig the paintjob on it, it’s 14 inches tall, and the killer part is that it has 43 points of articulation.

    The pic says Desert Bertie paintjob, does this mean that there will be more than one paintjob to choose from, or how cool would it be if it was like the Dunny? Design your own Bertie.

    Keep watching this page for info: World War Robot

  • aotd: “Children Should Grow on Trees”

    Children_Should_Grow_On_Trees_by_tubam.jpgEvery once in a while I find an amazing artist, that just seems to have disappeared. No way that I can contact them. It’s especially hard when they use a nickname.

    So todays piece is from Matt, or Tabum, whichever one it is. The artwork is amazing. The picture clearly shows the brushwork going on the painting, I really dig the whole color scheme. The expressions on those elephants are great.

    Matt’s whole gallery is quite amazing, it’s too bad I have no where else to direct you. So if you want to see more, head over to his profile. If anyone knows where Matt is, let me know.
