Thor BARG! model tweaks. UPDATE



This model has a name plaque and a few small tweaks. Time to get quotes now.
This will be my first go at rapid prototyping. I'm looking into Offload Studios. They come highly recommended!

Final tweaks submitted for quote! This version has a few more nods to my original design for Thor BARG!

The Thor BARG! Model has been cleaned up and is ready for protyping!

Ra BARG! is next. I'm planning on a series of figurines ranging from
2-8 inches tall. Thor and Ra will likely be 8 inches talk if my
budget allows.

Early Sophia Pistis prototype

This version was a little too drugged out for Sophia but there is
something I like about it. Nothing goes to
waste in the Iszyverse! Pencil and ink on Bainbridge board.

Iszard.com Update Coming Soon!

I've been burning the midnight oil to get my portfolio site updated. I'm working on a complete re-work that will make it much easier to update in the future. I've learned lots about CSS and the spry framework in the process. Within the week, the new site should be up!

The BARG! site will be next! Once I get these updates out of the way I can get back to drawing!

Inking Father Eli from Big Ass Robot Gods

I use a Japanese ink brush that uses replaceable cartridges for most of my inking. It has real bristles and comes to a very nice point. I'm not sure of the name of the manufacturer but I have two different brushes that I switch between. More to come!

Welcome to the Iszyverse!

Consider this the Big Bang. I'll use this space to keep you up to date on my latest work and upcoming events!
