Custom-Feature: Bufo Emilio / The Cyberhypnotoad - Jumping Brain by Cris Rose (for TAG Sept 16th)
Cris Rose customizes a Jumping Brain for the upcoming September 16th show at Toy Art Gallery, and it is a return to fine-custom-form from the UK artist/creator! We've been seeing a whole lot of self-produced and collaborative-produced figures from Cris for a while, so seeing this build is a treat.

For the entire backstory to the piece, check out his Flickr-page. Meanwhile this is what else he had to share:
"I was asked to produce a custom Jumping Brain by Emilio Garcia as part of the Toy Art Gallery Grand Opening at it's new location on September 16th. I am also producing a large number of resin bots for the opening and releasing 5 new sculpts. In total, there should be at least as many pieces as i sent to Metallic Machinations last year!
Along with the resin Jumping Brain, i've also incorporated an 8" Egg Qee and a sizable custom build to make up the raygun on the front. There are also two painted Bits n Bytes to keep it maintained, making the whole thing 1/24th scale instead of my normal 1/12th. Standing 9" tall and 9" deep, he's a big chap!" ~mentions Cris.
