Topps Star Wars Galaxy 6 Base Card

2011-03-05T08:24:00.001-08:00

Here is my Base Card for the new Topps Star Wars Galaxy 6 set!!

This is the first time I've had a base card - and it's incredible to me.

I'm Card #34!

Here is the Front & Back of the actual card:

Star Wars Galactic Christmas Wreath

2010-12-22T06:34:00.001-08:00

I always like to get a real tree & a real wreath for Christmas.

A lot of times Ill decorate the front door wreath with just a bow and leave it at that.

This year I wanted something more fun!

I really wanted to do something Star Wars-y. I didn't want to have to buy anything extra BUT I also didn't want to ruin any of our figures or collectibles.

So here is a VERY easy, and simple way to have an awesome & fun Star Wars wreath, that also won't damage your figures!

Pick up a wreath from like the dollar store, get some fishing wire, a pair of scissors and a bunch of figures!

Using Galactic Heroes, I decided to go with a Hoth Theme. I thought (especially once it snowed) it would be very fitting.

Step 1: Gather your materials & lay everything out

Step 2: Wrap each figure with the fishing wire enough times around to stabilize the figure exactly how you want on the wreath

Step 3: Tie it to the wreath & snip the extra fishing wire off!

Step 4: HANG! You are done, it looks awesome & everyone is jealous.

They also made perfectly appropriate Christmas Galacatic Heroes, but ours were not opened, so we want to keep them Mint in Box! :D

Who Ya Gonna Call??? Slime Trooper

by Jay Cochran at 20:56:28 on 07/31/10

Artist extraordinaire Nicole Falk has created this very cool "Slime Trooper" helmet which will be on display and auctioned off at STAR WARS CELEBRATION V on August 15. The auction is being held by the 501st Legion TK Helmet Project, and the proceeds from it will go towards the Make a Wish Foundation.

Nicole's helmet is her interpretation of Slimer from The Ghostbusters using a Stormtrooper helmet. It even plays the Ghostbusters theme song. All we can say is way cool Nicole, we may even have to bid on this one ourselves.

Here is a video demonstrating the sound feature.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

They included the Video and all photos too!

Im astounded by the response!! :D

The White Album

2009-06-29T09:04:00.000-07:00

I was overjoyed and honored when I was asked to participate with 12 other artists on this amazing book. It is such gorgeous collaboration of art and music and everyone should see it.

I have 50 copies available for pre-sale $20 for pick up at Comic-Con OR $20 plus shipping for mailed out copies (ships after Comic Con). San Diego Comic Con runs from July 22 - 26 (I will be there 23-26), 2009. Copies will be for sale at my booth NECA-#4345

On February 7th, 1964 The CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite ran a story about The Beatles’ United States arrival in which the correspondent said “The British Invasion this time goes by the code name Beatlemania”.The fifteenth American album by The Beatles released in 1968 is commonly known as The White Album because it has no text other than the band’s name on its plain white sleeve, and on the early LP and CD releases, a serial number.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Forty-five years ago, The Beatles invaded America, bringing with them a sound and attitude different from anything any of us had seen or heard before. They challenged and inspired us, forcing us to think about how things could be if we would only realize the importance of love.
Its now 2009. Although ts been nearly forty years since The Beatles broke up, and yet their message is as relevant and influential as ever. The greatest band in history is still inspiring hope and dreams, still changing lives and fostering creativity, still shaping the way we look, listen and think.
Announcing THE WHITE ALBUM: A Collection of Images Inspired by the Music of The Beatles.
Compiled and introduced by writer and illustrator Russell Walks, and showcasing work by artists including Spencer Brinkerhoff III, Matt Busch, and others, THE WHITE ALBUM presents an exciting array of dynamic, emotional works of art, each of has been inspired by a song from The Beatles extensive catalogue.
THE WHITE ALBUM looks at the work of The Beatles through a kaleidoscope of artistic styles and viewpoints. THE WHITE ALBUM will be available for the very first time ever this summer at the San Diego Comic-Con (July 22 -26, 2009). Dont miss your chance to pick up a copy at the only location where every artist will be available to personalize your book.

Participating Artists Include:

Spencer Brinkerhoff III
Matt Busch
TC Cor
Nicole Falk
Grant Gould
Gabe Hernandez
Paul Michael Kane
Leah Mangue
Meghan McMahon
Jeff Pittarelli

"The TK Project is a charity event for the Make A Wish Foundation. The 501st Stormtooper Legion is inviting our Honorary Members, Friends Of the Legion and a few 501st troopers to create one of a kind Stormtrooper helmets. This project is similar to the Vader Project that Lucasfilm has done."

They send me a life size prop replica stormtrooper helmet and I paint on it! :D

Later it'll be auctioned through make-a-wish..and it *might* be involved with Star Wars Celebration 5! Which would rock my socks.

Im very, very excited about it - scroll down on the page and you will see me!

501st TK Project

If you're feeling generous this holiday season, the 501st is looking for sponsors for funds to help ship the helmets to the artists, and leftover funds will be donated to Make A Wish. If you wanna help out, head over to 501sttkproject.com for info. Any person or business that donates will be added to the website as a sponsor.

*in other news I am currently working on cards for another upcoming trading card set - TOPPS Star Wars Galaxy Set..They haven't done a Galaxy set in like 13 years or something. Yeay!

TAGGED!

A fellow blogger Rachel at Cherry Tree Lane tagged me (soo long ago), to answer the following 5 questions and then tag some friends!

1. What was I doing 10 years ago?

Wow...lets see I was in between Freshman and Sophomore year at college..most likely working somewhere. geez I have a bad memory..?? Ummm, indulged in art possibly? And learning to play the guitar and bass..Oh wait yes, My budding acting career! I was trying to be an extra on anything I could, I had management - some really horrible place in Lincoln park, which was sooo worthless. I got a couple gigs (on my own) as a extra. One thing that had molly ringwald which was neat, "In the weeds" but it wasnt in the cards. They called me to come in for more days but they were like be here at 5 am I was like what ? thats too early, no thanks..haha guess I didnt have the heart for it..oh well, laziness overpowers all. You know I had hung out with that day or 2 I was there, that girl who eventually went on to be in Sex in the city (Bigs last wife - Natasha) it was one of the first things she did i think. See, if I would have stuck with it, I could have been on sex and this city..haha, no. I was in a restaurant scene..sitting at a large table. I should totally go rent it to see if i made it in.

2. 5 things on my to do list today?

*Finish Conan Packaging
*Draw Star Wars Sketch Cards..need to get those done
*Get pics from this weekends Iron Maiden concert up on Kodak Gallery
*Maybe clean the house later?
*Really need to finish those Star Wars Cards

3. Snacks I enjoy?

Fruit, Chips, Tostitos and my layered dip, Chocolate

4. Things I would do if I were a millionaire?

I would draw, publish books, sew like crazy, possibly make films, have funky art shows, buy a really big house, do light traveling, be even more happy cause my husband and I could just hang out all day with our pug and not have to work, playing video games and watching movies, bike rides...picnic...*sigh*

5. Places I lived?

Little Falls NJ, Garwood NJ, New Providence NJ

I tag: Jen JensBlog , Jordon GeorgiaGrace, Jeff JeffsBlog, Colleen Froggie!

Thanks to Rachel for tagging me! i love reading your blog!

IF - Forgotten

2008-06-11T09:19:00.001-07:00

Forgotten...I haven't posted an IF in so long! I have been busy with illustration projects and things..and I really got into sewing - so I was posting stuff on my other blog...So I am in fear of being forgotten..but I hope not.

ALSO - to me one of the forgotten arts that I used to adore was making Dolls. This one in particular "Little Red" was made for the Living Dead Dolls Art Show a couple years ago (ldd show)..and she sits forgotten on my office floor (she deserves so much better), in need of me fixing her up (having been damaged in travel) and then she needs to become a great fixture in my house.

She is a blank doll, that I sewed the clothes for and sculpted the hair, then painted her..Painted a shadow box and glued in the trees and moss, sculpted the basket and glued that in. Placed her in and created my 3d illustration! I had always hoped to do more of these beauties..but it was VERY time consuming, one day, perhaps.

Sorry ive been away!
Thank you for all your comments!!

ATC traded cards

2008-03-13T15:47:00.001-07:00

I am on a couple sites (like MondayArtday ATC) where some online friends and I trade cards, they come up with a theme and we draw cards and send 'em in to each other.. its great for drawing some fun characters and the ATC size is totally fun, plus you get someone else's beautiful art! Here are some that I have sent in, in the past..

2008-02-10T12:03:00.001-08:00

For Illustration Fridays "Choose" theme..

Who comes to mind when there is an option of choice? Alice...that's who...

I created this with my sewing machine..it is an ATC sized piece...all lines are sewn...and color is with markers..

An awesome artist on MondayArtdays ATC trading group made a few sewn ATCs and hers are AMAZING! Sewn colors in and everything..well i love the idea of combining illustration which i love with sewing which i love..since i started sewing i had always wanted a way to combine the 2...and when i saw her pieces i was like DUH!!! haha

Thank you for comments..
