"With assistance from my buddy Debbie, we painted with kids, talked about Dragon Boy, and basically had a great time! The mom of 2 of the kids ended up buying the custom on the spot! They were visiting from Chicago and thought this piece would complete their trip. Amazing!
Korena, the store manager from Kidrobot SF hand sewed a Chrome messenger bag for the Munny. It was truly a team effort!" ~added Martin (Check out more images here) on his Facebook).
"My challenge for this specific design was to make this custom munny look as true to the anime's Unit 01 mech / monster as much as I can without taking out the signature cute chubby aspect that the Kidrobot Munny is known for, and of course my own Bulletpunk style to all of it.
I Hand Sculpted the custom parts using Tamiya Pla Plates as base support and then sculpted my way using epoxy putty. I Hyper-extended the arms outwards to make space for the Unit 01's signature shoulder blades. I also hand-sculpted the custom Progressive Knife it holds, using a cut-out pla plate as its base shape and a shortened wodden pencil as its handle, then shaped the epoxy putty around it for the final form. I used different metallic paints to achieve the blue-violet-pink hues to the finish, and Mr.Hobby's super flourescent green enamel-based paint for the signature neon green detailings that really pop out even on low-quality cameras." ~added QUICCS (www.quicccs.com) / www.quiccs.deviantart.com).
"Ryuunosuken, a disgraced samurai warrior. As wars between the clans became more and more brutal Ryuunosukes reputation for being truely gifted with his sword was only out stripped by his blood lust and brutality. When his master grew tired of fighting and called a truce Ryuunosuke became enraged and struck his master. Not wanting to commit Seppuku (ritual sucide) for such a show of dishonour, Ryuunosuke fled into country side.
Alone and with rage burning inside Ryuunosuke has become a true Ronin and will fight any war for the biggest purse or chance of the greatest kill."
"So after a three month hiatus after the birth of my second child, I am back with the "Sonic Support Drone" and in so the completion of the Drone Series. I have really enjoyed this set of customs and each has evolved one step more than the lost with the Sonic Support Drone being the most tailored piece yet." -shared Abe Viljoen aka The Given.
