Tried to fave this last night and DA wouldn't let me! Excellent work. It really gives the impression of the early japanese artform. There's fluidity of the pose and musculature that mirrors the folklore paintings. Incredible work!!

Thanks Dave, yeah I really want to give that traditional 'scroll work' kind of feel, so it's nice to hear that's coming across.

I love Japanese folklore as well so this is fantastic for me!! Your work just rocks all the time! I'm working on a doll based on a Japanese Kirin that's slowly progressing...but who knows if it'll ever see the light of day. Definately can't wait to see this Tengu finished!

Hey Eva, thanks for the kindness . Of course you know I adore your stuff, and I would love to see your Kirin.

Great expression, I look forward to see him finished!
On what kinda story is it based or is it a mythological character?

AliasGhost In reply to Harkon72 [2009-02-07 02:54:23 +0000 UTC]

Thanks brother, he's based on the Japanese Tengu myth, a deity found in the Shinto and Buddhist stories of Japan.

Dan! Thanks, I appreciate that man, I hope the final piece holds the same appeal. Dude, I just checked that flyer on your page, that sounds like a bangin show congrats. My little brother did some shows with Chet out in LA.

Very welcome. I'm sure it will kick just as much ass when you finish. I'm looking forward to it! Thanks man. I'm pretty excited about it. Should be really cool. Does your brother post his work here? I'd love to see it.

That is one wicked Tengu! The tree branch base is a nice touch. Can't wait to see him finished since I have a knack for Japanse monsters

Are you sculpting different tengus? Or different monsters? I MUST KNOWWW

AliasGhost In reply to Whitey594 [2009-02-07 00:24:31 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Scott, much appreciated brother. My plan is to do a full line of Myth based kits, the Tengu will be the first and we'll see where sales go if anywhere. But between you and I, I doubt this will be the last Tengu I do, I'm a huge fan of Japanese folklore.

AliasGhost In reply to Whitey594 [2009-02-07 17:37:09 +0000 UTC]

Oh Scott, wheres the fun in that? Well, I'm not restricting the line to Japanese Myth though there's more than enough subject matter there. The Monkey God/Hanuman is currently working his way out of my head.
