New Dimensions

One of the most exciting things to happen this year
will be the collaborations between myself and Michael Fichtenmayer at IndustriaMechanika
These scale model kits will feature some of my mech and vehicle works of late,
but randomly it starts with a character I designed over seven years ago, 
back when everything was on paper.
He was called Freaky Gothic, and he was some sort of alien trapped sometime in the 1800's.
Anyway, here's the original (2005) and the recent model sheets I created. 


 He'll form part of one of Michael's kits and will be modeled by
David Richardson. There's a possibility of a standalone 12" version though!
I will keep you posted on this and the other future model kits.

Do you still have the sketch somewhere (the thing you see to the left of the character at the IM site)? I love the linework in the sketch, so I'd be happy if you could link to it.

Mr. Caw,
This is a bit off topic, but I was looking at your portfolio website and I saw that you had some graphic design work in there with the concept art.
I was wondering how you have balanced both disciplines over the years?
