A preview of my custom toy pieces for The Vinyl Thoughts Art Show 4: Free For All!

I've been invited to be one of many artist to have work featured in a one night vinyl toy show called, "Vinyl Thoughts 4: Free for All" in Dallas on September 12th 2013. If you plan to be in the area, stop by and check out all of the cool custom vinyl toys. With that being said, I will not be posting anymore finished custom toy entries on this site till that show is over. I want the new finished pieces to be a bit of a surprise. Also, I will be taking a bit of a hiatus from a regular art and toy posting schedule till the show is over. That way I can focus my time on finishing pieces for the event. For now, I can offer preview pics of some of my pieces that will be there and some work in progress pictures on some social media outlets. Enjoy. And if you want to see more, follow me on twitter and instagram @barnlord. 

At the show, all of the custom toys I have there will be on sale to the public. I also will have two pieces of custom Loose Tea toys that have been made for the show to use as raffle items. I will also have 47 or so Sweet Evil handmade pins on cardback. If you are there, you buy a pin, and want me to sign it that night, I'll be there... you'll just have to find me.   :D 

I did buy a table for the Dallas Comic Con: Fan Days on October 4th-6th. If you are wanting a pre-Fan Days 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:
