Sketchbook find: Logo for Bay Area Power Violence trio SPAZZ. Drawn on a whim in a van in 97, multiple versions ensued, the final drawing approved but looking back...another face-lift is needed!?! Most would agree. Mostly. Regardless, sweat to this oldie:

Mike Sutfin x Rumble Monsters Handpainted Entity 13 for SDCC 2009

Rumble Rumble!! From Toybot Studios:



Another shocker for SDCC, didn't even see this one coming! MIKE SUTFIN gets robotic on this RUMBLE MONSTERS ENTITY 13 HANDPAINT. Being introduced during the PUSHEAD event at TOY TOKYO on Thursday July 23rd, Mike will lay out quite a few of these handpainted beauties. The detail is insane! Mike just seems to know how to exceptionally apply paint to RUMBLE MONSTERS vinyl figures...it just keeps getting better. Each one has hand brushed detail, carefully and meticuously added over a painted base. Be there for the unveiling...then start crying. Someone pinch me, I must be dreaming....SUTFIN and PUSHEAD HANDPAINTS at SDCC... brain overload!









The story goes that this Entity 13 crushed the skull of an enemy with his mighty sledgehammer and all of the demons were released and started to take over the robot's body and making the 13 a demon possessed mecha monster!

The Filth and the Fury

A mysterious package arrives, return address: 'Lando Calrissian'. Once open, it's understood that the talented artist I met in NYC Halloween 2k7, Kostas Seremetis was the true mastermind behind this cannibalized toy creation! Why it was sent, why why why? At this point it's still unclear, but the fact he decided to send it to me is like listening to both the Rocky and Karate Kid theme-songs at once. Permission granted to post these images. Enjoy my good friends, enjoy.
