Mini Munny Contest - Honorable Mention

Well, the results have been posted, and my Tin Man was awarded an Honorable Mention in the Mini Munny Custom Competition at KidRobot:

I have to say that I am pretty honored to have been awarded a prize amongst the 200+ entrants, and will use the 20$ Gift Certificate for a couple more Mini Munnys. I can't say that I totally agree with all of the winners, but that's the beauty of a subjectively judged contest. I think they got 3 of 6 big winners right, then missed on the rest. Either way, I'm glad that the contest inspired me to get something done for a change, and happy with the result. I hope Wolfie displays the Tin Man proudly.

Tin Man- Day 11 - COMPLETE!

I wasn't sure if I could pull it off in time, but I am officially done with the Tin Man. This one is based of Jack Haley's classic portrayal from the motion picture Wizard of Oz. I have to admit that I am very happy with the results, I wasn't sure if I could pull off the face, but I think it's worked out fine. This is probably my best work yet, and will be entered into the MiniMunny Contest at KidRobot. Wish me Luck, and I'd love to hear your comments.

Tin Man - Day Ten

Well, I've got less than 27 hours to finish this custom for the Mini Munny contest, and I have to admit that I'm more than a bit nervous. After a good coat of Automobile Primer, I've laid down an even coat of Aluminum paint, all the way around. The final step is in the details. Stay tuned. I just hope that I don't mess it up. Matter of fact, I think I'll take final shots of this piece, since it doesn't look too bad like this. Wish me luck.

Tin Man - Day 8 - New WIP

It's been a week since I got started on this project, and things have come along fairly nicely. Unfortunately, the deadline for the Mini Munny Contest is coming up on Wednesday, and I'm starting to worry about timing. The sculpting is done, and I'll be laying down primer tonight. If you see anything that might be improved on before final paint, I'm all ears. Please leave a comment here.
