Lift Detroit Summer Munny Show #2

     So this is the flyer for my first official show that I've submitted a custom to.  See my name by the munnys right arm and they even had it "ALL CAPS" when you spell the man's name!!  The Bar B. Q. Munny went there and is currently being displayed.  This is actually the second show I signed up for, the first being the Montreal Munny GID show which I failed to finish my piece in time.  Check out the info or photos of the show at www.liftdetroit.com.  While your there help support the artists by picking up a munny or two.  There were a lot of awesome submissions.

     I'm already slated to submit a couple of customs at the upcoming September Coalesce Show in New York and planning to submit a custom to the Me Mad*L custom show hosted by Delicious Drips in San Francisco at the end of October.  Be sure to check back for what I come up with at those shows.  It's going to be a mad rush for the end of the year.  I got some crazy ideas flowing in my head, which are dying to be let out on some poor vinyl toy.

Bar B. Q Munny for Lift Detroit Summer Show

So this is my new munny for the upcoming Lift Detroit Summer Show, which takes place Saturday August 9, 2008. As you can see it's a BBQ Munny with fully functional vents and removal cover. The grill is actually wood dowels painted in silver. The gloves and part of the apron are sculpted on as well as the rim of the cover and the coals that are inside. I had a great time creating this even though towards the end I ended up rushing to make the deadline. The tongs could have been sculpted better as well as the paint on the dunny burger, which it was suggested should have grill lines on it. Oh well, more ideas to play with when I finish the Gas Grill Dunny I am currently working on for the Coalesce NY show at the end of the month. At $200, I hope that this little fellow finds a good home.
