Gizmos and Gadgets Show

Deanna and I drove up to Brooklyn yesterday for the opening night of Bottleneck Gallery's Gizmos and Gadgets show. I made it to the show with my sculpture about five minutes before the doors opened. We had traffic and got turned around on the way up, so it was a race against the clock. Everyone at the gallery was super understanding and extremely helpful. We got the piece put up just in time. The show looked great and the gallery was jam packed the entire time we were there. Big thanks to Josh, Bob, and Chris for coming out and supporting me. It made the night a lot of fun. Prints and my original piece from the show are now available on Bottlneck's website. There is a lot of fun stuff to check out.

More Data photos

Here are a couple more angles of the final sculpture. It measures about 10.5 inches tall by 6 long and 6 wide minus the Pinchers of Peril. I'm looking forward to the opening tomorrow night at the Bottleneck Gallery in Brooklyn.

Data gadgets

I've been working on a sculpture of Data from Goonies for the past month or so. It's just about wrapped up. Here are a couple details of some of the gadgets that will be strapped to him.

Movie Trailers!

Here are two movies coming up in 2013 that I am dying to see.
The first is a no-brainer. Guillermo del Toro's latest movie features giant kaiju monsters fighting giant robot mechs. Throw in Idris Elba, Charlie Day and Ron Perlman... what more could you ask for? Pacific Rim looks like it will be non-stop action and fun with some sincere heart thrown in knowing Del Toro's work.

Next is a much smaller movie called Upstream Color by Shane Carruth. This one looks like you'll need to bring your thinking cap along with you to the theater. Carruth has only release one other feature previously, a movie call Primer. Primer is one of my favorite movies. I've watched it many times and always think I have a handle on it, but I know I don't. It might be the best time travel movie of all time. It's scope is so big, but really its a very small film. Reported made for only $7000, it took the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance in 2004. So here is his new one, and it doesn't look like he's going to take it any easier on the viewers.

New sculpt update

Here are a few progress photos. Forgive me for the first face being horrifying.
