Gargamel mini based on a bootleg kaiju sculpt. Painted featuring Monster Kolor ‘Rolok’ colors as a test piece, which dry flat and have some more ‘stuff’ in them, so they don’t need sealer. The claws and details were painted with other MK colors and glossed, and the shiny and matte effect looks really neat on this guy.
This mini sculpt is based on the very rare vintage bootleg fullsize sculpt of one of the Somg Monster forms. I love the proportions and the stance, and the figure has some great texture.
I tried to really push my colors and sprays with this little guy. A trick that I’ve learned I can use is to bring up my highlights in white and then use a light squirt of clear colors to restore any fading. I used that on the body to re-saturate some of the colors that I thought were looking a little too light.

Good news!
The Neo Eyezon Hawaii two-pack I painted with Mark Nagata using the Monster Kolor Hawaii set just went up for sale to the Max Toy Co Club members. I am really excited to see this project completed, and had a great time with it. Working with someone I respect and look up to was a blast, and I think both figures in the set came out really fantastic, and complement each other very well!
Reports of mysterious new blight infections have been popping up around the Glyos system. It appears that many many warp travelers have been infected. This Warp Interloper Callgrim-pattern bounty hunter was reported by a traveler recently, with what appears to be a more advanced infection.
My brother made a custom Phanost build that incorporated some metal parts we got from the recent drop and other places that he wanted me to paint. One of the parts was a metal Crayboth claw, so he got a huge claw arm and I wanted it to be a focal point. It was such an unusual build that I couldn’t help but think that the claw must be some sort of mutation or blight this Phanost caught while exploring. Now, his blighted arm crackles with power even as it corrupts him.
Proper detailed pics of Kaiju Hunters Gary “Heat Death” and Steve “Infernus” as they meet the mysterious No-Mad.
These bad boys were part of veteran Cosmic Squadron painted by Dead Pre$idents for the Kaiju Bazaar show at Doubple Punch. More pics to follow, but here’s a shot of Troopers Gary “Heat Death” and Steve “Infernus” on patrol.
The other members of the squad are not available at the Cosmic Squadron Store!
The first post was getting long, so this will be part 2 of the Glyos figures in progress.
It was time for some details, so I got out a fine-tuned weapon.
