Self Portrait

Hello! I wanted to have some time to start illustrating again because I miss it. I wanted to make something that I thought that was challenging, so I did this. Why my freaking face? Well its not easy at all to be self aware of your face and painting a face is not easy too. Besides I tend to mess up the grey shades, and then need to correct them, then I get bored.

In other news, I've been making polls and questions for you to vote and help me to make a Soft Kriture based on your voting. So jump to facebook and vote there :)

Resin Update

Hello there :)

As has been asked, here's some eye candy of the new resin Kritures. When my stock of clay kritures is over, it's official, all collection will be made of resin :).

For those who have the possibility to see Kriture at Mercado Quebra Costas (Coimbra) this Saturday (9 Oct) they will can purchase them there.

I need some time to finish the whole collection and take new pics so they can always be accurate to the original figure. Until then, my online store will have only the Kritures that I still have on clay, so if you require one of them already in resin, contact me at saveus@kriture.com (mailto:saveus@kriture.com), but please note that they are not as good as I want them yet.

Test #1 Mould Casting

Just posting a quick update :)
Theese are the first casting experiments on a Wittz. They didn't turned out that much bad, considering that the original was a bad and quick sample.
Still need to work on the weight, the smell and color, takes time to find out all these kind of stuff that in the end, you really can't see the effort.

I've started making some prototypes, its very hard to achieve symmetry, and make some parts without showing that it once was made by hand. Yeah a 3D printer could be awesome, if the price for a single Kriture weren't an absurd, and you still need to sandpaper it in the end.
I'm still on testing, so I can't really tell yet what material will I use in the future, depending on the material, I still need to think if a rotocast machine would help, and build one.
There is so much work behind the scenes, you don't have idea! <3
