Sketch Heads

I started making these for something to do while waiting for...paint to dry, sculpey to cure etc. The only restrictions I made were that each one was to take no more than 10min to make. The painting is a later addition as I decided I couldn't see enough detail on them...

Here are the first few I made unpainted:

...and here they are painted up:

....and here are the next three:

...interesting to see in just these few how much they've improved from the first batch. I must keep these going, I might try using some paperclay on the next lot.

Toybreak x Oberth Colonist Competition

The competition is now up on the forum.....here are the rules:

Win one of two exclusive October Toys Oberth Colonists! To enter, simply post a reply here containing the following: Make a traveling companion for the Oberth Colonists. This can be a very simple sketch, a painting, a cardboard cutout, a 3D figure made out of pretty much anything, some digital editing of existing imagery....No great skills are needed for this just get the idea across in some way.

Deadline is October 5th 

And here's the two figures up for grabs:

There are only three of these October Toys editions in existence...and there will only ever be these three (the third one is in George and Ayleen's collection).
