Ray Blaster

just finished this Ray Gun and wanted to share it. It's made out of an old Ramset nail gunfrom the 1960's. Solid aluminum with a stainless steel barrel..the muzzle is an inverted mallard 1911 muzzle break. This thing is solid ..weighs around 5 lbs. Super cool and displays even nicer!.. Enjoy!

Archers & Regulars

Quick concept for my own project. Sometime ago I started working on my own graphic novel..a historical fiction story grounded in the real history of the Romanian people and their struggle against the invasions by both the Ottoman  and the Austro-Hungarian Empires.

Words..

I do not usually make comments on world news but in the wake of the Paris shootings at the Charlie Hebdo satirical paper.. I will voice couple comments from the perspective of someone in the art world. Someone smarter than myself said: "Words have consequences..so does Silence".
Art, music, poetry, prose, political commentary, satire and ideas in general must not be allowed to be silenced.  Silence allows tyranny! For those who feel that their politics, religion, social status, race or culture is above criticism or satire ..Please step into the 21st century.. Humanity has sent men to the moon, descended into the depths of the oceans and broke the speed of sound.. your mentality needs to step into modern times. Say NO to ALL CENSURE. Be open to all ideas for betterment of all humanity not just your cause.
STAND UNITED AGAINST CENSURE!
 I am Charlie! Soy Charlie! Sunt Charlie! Je suis Charlie!

Create! Voice and Open up the world's eyes with ideas! Do Not Be Intimidated! Silence has far worst consequences than words.. think about that for a moment!

Lost Teeth

Somewhere in the night a vampire is missing his teeth! Just wanted to share a pair of prop teeth I have made last week for a photo shoot. They are to scale and about 1 inch tall. I made them out of sculpey, hot glue and paint. The shiny part is clear silicone brushed on. Enjoy!

Machete Kills ( art and props )

Machete Kills rolled out and went!.. and thought that I would show off some of the things I designed and built or painted. From the Retro guns to the Hummer paint job and the Masks worn my Mel Gibson

. I will also post some of the post vfx work I did in the following days. It was a lot of fun and lots of work. Enjoy!

Old Old Pepino

in 2005 a friend of Troublemaker Studios asked me to paint him a Pepino ( the studio mascot and character from Los Hooligans ) so he can hang it in his office! I just found this photo...2005 so long ago!
