Custom-Showcase: Betso for Ganmetall Celsius Custom Show @ TAG

CLICK THRU for a quick Q&A with artist Bil Betsovic aka Betso's dagger-wielding "1/2 parrot, 1/2 quail-all pirate" custom-Celsius (along with a closer look at custom-images) ~ completed for the upcoming Ganmetall Celsius Custom Show @ Toy Art Gallery launching July 10th [blogged]. Pretty delightful voodoo-concoction of a character, IMHO ~ with no doubt loads of adventures to share with whomever dares listen in LOL ~ *Nice*


TOYSREVIL: Does it have a name? And what's it's "story"? (1/2 parrot, 1/2 quail-all pirate ~ hilarious! must have a great story ;p)

BETSO: no name...Born 1/2 quail ,1/2 parrot, his parents met at the local pet shop in Florida. From his beginings he was taught all the right thing, but ventured off to no mans land where he met his pirate buddy. Soon after the pirate had been killed, so he took the key to the treasure and flew away.

TOYSREVIL: What inspired the concept of this custom?

BETSO: The shape is what happened for this custom, it was the 1st thing that popped in my head so i immediatly cut out the mouth!


TOYSREVIL: And did it turn out the way you had planned it to? Are you happy with it?

BETSO: I'm def happy with how it turned out, it is what i saw in my head.

TOYSREVIL: Do share with us: Who Is B3T5O? And what can folks expect from you in the (near) future?

BETSO: Betso, a self taught artist from Las Vegas influenced by cartoons, graffiti, and the strange world of animals, he puts the love of all three into each one of his paintings. future....a few resin pieces, mostly canvas type work.
