Alien Mercenaries Season 2 starts NOW!! O_O!!

The wait is over, September is upon us and that means Alien Mercenaries Season 2 is all set to kick off the "new fall season".

Okay, real quick a note on the episode numbering from here on out: the episodes numbers will continue from Season 1 (i.e. the 1st episode of Season 2 is episode #24) but have the "Season 2" blurb before them to let people know what season it's a part of.

So, without further ado, here's episode #24 "Hard Landing"!

































Expect Episode #25 sometime this month, as I'm currently looking for an apartment for my fiancee & I so my time to do photo shoots will be limited. I wanted to stick to my promise of having season 2 start in Septemeber so I buckled down last night & cranked these 15 panels out. I hope everyone enjoyed it & trust me the rest of Season 2 will only be getting better. Take care gang!

Monstrokk Hunters- #3 in a Three-Episode Limited Series!

Finally got this story done. I would have finished it sooner, as I hate leaving projects hanging around unfinished (HUGE pet-peeve of mine), but being busy in life AND getting a bit of writer's block towards the end didn't help it come out sooner. I had the first 6 panels scripted for a few weeks now, but then had to cut about 5 photographs/panels from the comic as they just didn't help with the story. They were cool shots, but having them in this episode just didn't work. The last 3 panels are photographs I literally just shot less then 2 hours ago (as of this writing) as the idea just came to me how I wanted to wrap up this story. So, without further ado, here's the final 3rd part in the Monstrokk Hunters mini-photo-comic! I hope you enjoy it & it was worth the wait. :-D

























Fans of Alien Mercenaries will notice a certain familiar character in the last 2 panels, but he doesn't "sound" (i.e. his font is different) the same & has a different name. You all know him as Zov'rass, but...who is this "Ur'mond" person then??? The plot thickens! Pieces of this story will be revealed in time, possibly in another Limited Series photo comic OR in Alien Mercenaries Season 2.

OH, that reminds me. Expect a sneak-preview episode of Alien Mercenaries Season 2 to "air" here on the blog in the upcoming weeks. I want the general feel to be like Saturday morning cartoons from the 80's/90's, where a TV network would show a new/sneak peek episode the Friday BEFORE the new season started. As I have all the photos shot already for the 1st episode of Season 2 (I shot them while shooting the 4-part season 1 finale to save time), it's just a matter of me scripting them & posting them up for people to read.

Until next time, be good guys & stay tuned for more weird & wacky stuff. 8-)

Must...build..STUFF...O_@

So I got an Armodoc today, but it's technically my fiancee's as I didn't think they'd sell out so fast & didn't order the standard one for myself. BUT..I'm allowed to play with it before I give it to her next week.

With this new-found glyos toy at my disposal, I decided to muck around with it a bit. Seeing as I can't really build too much with it having only 1, I decided to see what I could do with using standard glyos parts AND the Armodoc. Using Matt's salvage mech custom as a guide, I put the following mech together. Beth's Red Rabbit is the pilot in these shots, with a wolf/dog character I made her being the "victim" of the mech...



"You didn't think it'd be THAT easy did you!?" (Robot Chicken reference)




Close up of how I connected the glyos parts to the Armodoc pelvis. Same way as Matt did it; just take a complete Gobon blaster & insert the disc-end into the pelvis leg socket. It actually holds up pretty well.


I attached the Armodoc's head & fist to see how it would look. The result? AWESOME. O_O!!


Currently in the process of sculpting some stuff, re-configuring the arms & legs from the Armodoc Mech to amp-up a figure & watching a movie on the computer. Where DO I get the energy?? O_o???

MORE new Stuff & who is this new character for my avatar???

If you look at my avatar/photo on the message boards OR here on my blog, you'll notice the picture changed. The last picture was of another character of mine, called "the Slaurian" (you also see him in this blog's logo, hanging out in the middle of the picture), but he acted as more of a place-holder for my current avatar/photo. This character is the face behind the name "Bah'glenn" and is a caricature of myself in a way. I've been meaning to get around to sculpting him, but finally got the time while on vacation this past week. I had a lot of fun sculpting his head & am very pleased with the result. So far though, his body is not 100% done yet, so keep tuning back here to see how his construction is progressing.

Here's a larger picture for you guys to check out as well.



Next up! My cousin is a big fan of sharks so I wanted to make him a little shark guy. It started out just being a head & then I began thinking "hey, why not just make it a body?". Only problem was, I'd already baked then head & never put a peg inside it. SO...I just had to sculpt a torso & attach the head to it with Sculpey. I at least made arms & articulated them, so it's more like a large Battle Beast right now. I didn't get the chance to make his lower half before my vacation ended, so right now he's using a Pheyden pelvis & legs.





Okay, that skull-headed figure on the right of that picture is/was another character I was trying to make. I wanted Rott'n'dekae to have some undead troops, so I was trying to make another skull-headed guy...but it didn't come out exactly right (to ME anyways). Sooo this gave me another idea: What about a character who SURVIVED a direct encounter with Rott'n'dekae?? I took some sculpey, and formed a face around the head, leaving the skull exposed on his right side...forever scarred from his encounter with that skeletal monstrosity.





Those above two pictures are before I baked him in the oven, this picture below is after he was baked & pegged into a home-made torso for this photo:



Still need to make a better body for him. I may or may not give him a custom torso with skeletal damage on it; I'm picturing his right shoulder & ribcage being exposed, so he's literally half alive & half dead. Again, will post more pictures of that as I'm working on it. Expect to see him in an up-coming mini-comic or in some sort of role in the future, probably once I finish making his body.

That's all for right now, I just need to take some pictures of the other stuff I made, so expect them to be up here soonish. :-D

I'm back! And I've made a LOT of stuff over my vacation

Okay, the final part to the Monstrokk Limited Series will be up sometime within the next two days or so, I just have to sit down & script the last few panels & then we'll be good to go.

In the meantime, I'm going to share with you guys some stuff I made while away on vactation. As I had an entire week without any work & plenty of free time, I made sure to bring my sculpey, tools & misc. other components to make customs with. I got to make a few Alien Mercenaries Season 2 characters that I'd not set time aside for, as well as learned how to sculpt a few new types of animal heads(I'll be showing a few of those below).

Okay, so here's the first new animal I made, a Duck-Billed Platypus. My fiancee had made the suggestion & wanted it as a glyos head & I instantly thought it was a fantastic idea! I hadn't thought about it before either, so I'm glad she made the suggestion. I actually made two as I liked the one I made for her so much I wanted one of my own LoL; the one with silver eyes is her's & the one with blue eyes is mine.

I even sculpted a boomerang accessory for them to use, as it seems kinda fitting for an australlian animal. Don't be surprised if you see more australlian animals popping up on the blog soon...











Next, another custom head for my fiancee (she gets the coolest stuff from me LoL) was 100% her idea. As I'd made an awesome rabbit head (you guys might see it soon, but not just yet ~_^), she requested I make one in red & with a monocle on it's eye. I'm not sure why she wanted it to have a monocle, but people just look cooler with monocles anwyays LoL.





More cool stuff to come, so be sure to keep looking at the blog for updates. When I get my new glyos product order in, you'll be seeing a LOT of cool customs popping up here.

Monstrokk Hunters- #2 in a Three-Episode Limited Series!

Hey guys! Here is Episode #2 of "Monstrokk Hunters", fresh off the presses! Enjoy! ^_^

The conclusion to this Limited Series will come up when I return from vaction next week (ooo suspense! O_O)....unless I have time before leaving in 4-5 hours & finish Episode #3 (but I don't like to rush it if it's not ready just yet).

Let me know what you all think of the new & improved Monstrokk. Is he more scary now then before? I've wanted to re-do him for a while, as I wanted him to have some sculpted parts. I actually made this upgraded body back in June/July, but kept his looks a secret until now. After seeing the new Rothan colored Buildman that's coming out, I may have to get a couple of those & swap-out Monstrokk's phase green parts for the light green ones (as they match his skin more), but I'll have to wait & see when I get some. I need to also post some pics of the new & improved Monstrokk up here on the blog, as he's changed ALOT & is much bigger too.

While on vaction I'll be spending some time sculpting & such, so expect lots of updates when I return next Friday. Until then, enjoy the week guys! :-D
