Anyone who has been following my work has likely seen images of the melt knuckles just as early as they saw images of the Ice Scream Man. There was a time a little over a year ago when i was developing a lot of images of melted stuff... Ice cream, skulls, knuckles, grenades, bombs, switchbades, guns, all sorts of ill melted shit.
The Ice Scream Man was the first piece i tackled as a production
project, it has been an absolute blast and i am continually humbled by
the support i receive for this piece. It has also been an incredible
learning experience in materials, process and even customer relations.
This single design has taken up way more time than i could have ever
expected and that is not a complaint... i am incredibly thankful that it
has been successful enough to allow me to pay off my initial investment
in machinery and fund the purchase of more. For the record, Brutherford
Industries now has 2 rotocasting machines, 1 small injection molding
machine, 1 thermo-forming machine, a complete vacuum/pressure casting
setup and a bunch of other crap.
If you've been paying attention you might also know that we are
releasing an Asian inspired 3 pack of Bite Size Ice Scream Men at NYCC
with My Plastic Heart. Green Tea, Red Bean and Black Sesame, I'll be at
booth 3313 on Friday October 12th from 12-1pm for a signing. If you're
in town come on out and boost my ego a little more you might even find
that i've got some other wacky shit for sale that you just cant live without !?!?!?
