Above is a cake topper I made for a friend of a friend. After sculpting the original out of Sculpey to closely resemble the wedding couple, I made a silicone mold of the original, then cast final piece in plastic and painted/airbrushed the final details. I made a tiny pair of glasses for the groom as well. The finished topper was about 5 1/2 inches tall. Final assembled, painted cake topper.

Above is the finished headstone in situ, Halloween 2012. It is made out of pink insulation foam and Foam-Cote. This was a fun personal project, and someday I will build a whole cemetery from scratch!
In 2004 I was asked by a friend of a friend if I could do some pinstriping on his lowrider bicycles for an upcoming show. I said I could, though I really didn’t know how. Learning to do it on the job is tricky, but I loved it and hated it at the same time. I completed 4 bikes for him including airbrush work, mural/illustrations and pin striping, the airbrushing was cover up of old artwork as well as new, additional artwork of my own. I sculpted parts here and there on some of them. Below are detail photos of the bloody skull in the clutches of the evil Predator on the Predator bike. A small detail, but fun to sculpt and paint nonetheless.
