Post Dallas Comic Con: Fan Days 2013 Fun!

I had a fantastic time at the Dallas Comic Con: Fan Days 2013 this last weekend. Everyone that stopped by to chat with Jeff and I were great and I would like to take some time out to thank all of you! I had some great commission pieces, I met Jason David Frank, aka, Tommy the Green/White Power Ranger, and got to see my convention friends. My friend and table neighbor, Drew, kept me from slacking on my commissions, as always, and I made enough to get the next Dallas Comic Con: Sci-Fi Expo table. With some of the extra money, I might try my hand at Helio Con in January. I had a blast and can't wait to do it again. Now, here's some pictures of commissions and stuff!

Thank you, Karri for this pic with Reese!

I will have a table for the Dallas Comic Con: Sci-Fi Expo, February 8-9th. If you are wanting a pre-Sci-Fi Expo commission, let me know and I'll get it ready for pick up at that show. 

Issue 5 of Xenex the Bug Man is available on indyplanet.com! I have all Xenex the Bug Man comic books available for print on demand. You can see that listing here on my store's tab for comic books. 

I have posted some new shirt designs in my Cafepress store. Head over to my Cafepress store and get a shirt or a couple! 

Just to let you know all know, I am taking commissions. If you would like to commission me for original artwork, head over to the commissions tab in store to see how. 

If you have not heard about the Podcast called, "Talking Toys with Taylor and Jeff", then it's time I let you know! Jeff and I are on the show where we talk about toys! (Go figure, I mean Go action figure!) Seems simple enough. We pick out a toy line to discuss in each show. We share our childhood memories, our favorite five, and talk about the one toy in the line that got away. Jeff talks about how he cherished his toys and I talk about how they ended up in the garden! The other two shows are The pilot episode, where Jeff and Josh Taylor break down the Pilot Episode in TV series, and The Loosely Based Podcast where Brynna and Jeff compare the book to the movie adaptation! The shows are great! If you are interested in what we got, go to Marvindogmedia.com  and give us a listen. You can subscribe to the shows on itunes and get up to date info on upcoming shows on facebook:

Post Sci-fi Expo 2013 Wrap up!

I want to start off by thanking everyone that stopped by the booth to chat and to those that came by to commission me for work or to get art from me. Thank you all! Your visits to the site and purchases help keep me going to these conventions that I love so much! Jeff and I had a blast at this last Sci-Fi Expo! I didn't get anything signed by anyone famous, but I did end up picking up a Y-Wing Bomber that is in great condition and a few vintage He-Man action figures from the Darth Mall guys. I was really happy they let me hold an actual Savage He-man! I did an print trade with the excellent artist Devin Kraft an got a print of his ever awesome Boba Fett that you can see in his gallery! I gave Reese an art piece to celebrate the first year anniversary of her stopping by my booth and getting the full run of Xenex the Bug Man! I did have some interesting commissions that I ended up loving. The first was a Mikey as Harry Potter. I then did a Dr. Fate as Doctor Who. After that I made a Deadpool as Marty Mcfly, Michonne standing on a Umbrella shield, and a Queen Amadalek which I ended up giving to Gloria and her amazing chainmailer jewelry designer that were sitting next to me. You can visit Gloria's site here. Here's some pics of the commissions. 

Again, thank you all! I did purchase another table for the Dallas Comic Con, so I will be back in May! Can't wait to see everyone then! 

I have posted some new shirt designs in my Cafepress store. Head over to my Cafepress store and get a shirt or a couple!

Taylor and Jeff: Action Figure Buddies for Life!

Action Figure Friday- Playmate's Nickelodeon Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle's- Foot Soldier!!

Recently, I got a chance to pick up the Foot soldier from the new TMNT toy line. All in all, I am rather happy with this toy, but make no mistake, I do feel as though more could have gone into him. This guy has 10 points of articulation. He has a swivel head, ball swivel shoulders and thighs, and swivel hands, waist and elbows. He has one long sword, one short sword, a scabbard set and two throwing stars. I like that the swords can stow away in the working scabbard. I do kind of wish that there was a peg to do the same for the throwing stars. He boasts a black plastic with a primer grey paint application to his legs, red band painting to his head and has grey plastic for his arms. He looks a lot like the comic run of foot soldiers or even the way that these guys looked in the original film. They have a more realistic appeal over their original playmates release versions (I still have quite a bit of love for that original toy design). Now here's my problem, and has been my dislike for some of the pieces in this line; lack of articulation. I really feel that we could have used a ball jointing in the neck that would made posing a load better. I also feel that we could have used some more articulation in the legs. The articulation could have been in the knee, or even just a swivel in the foot. With his foot already being pre-posed in action form along with his legs, the only one way to really stand pose him is how he is shown above. That usually urks me greatly, but is toned done a little due to the fact that he does look cool and has a working scabbard. 

You can find this guy pretty much anywhere including amazon. Here's his listing:
