Iron Giant bust and January News.
Greetings friends and i wish you all a happy new year.
Last day of the year comes with a bust i decided to make just a couple of days ago. The Iron Giant is a character i wanted to make for a while and i thought that the timing just hours before 2025 is a very suitable one. I hope you enjoy it.
First published in 1968, Ted Hughes's classic tale is a powerful tribute to peace on earth—and in all the universe. Of it Madeleine L'Engle wrote, "How grateful we should be for Ted Hughes's brilliant The Iron Giant. It speaks to all ages, and we need its message even more now." Philip Pullman called it "so gripping that when you begin to read it aloud, everyone stops to listen, young children and old people alike." Whether you think of it as a science fiction fantasy or a modern fairy tale or a tall-tale parable for today, you will never forget it.

January news
First of all i want to wish a very happy new year full of health , love and peace to everyone. I want to thank you for supporting me for yet another year that had many ups and downs and i hope i returned the favor as best as i could.
2025 for me will hopefully be a year that i will manage to improve my skills and take them to the next level and i will keep bringing you quality models like i always have tried to do since i became an artist. Therefore i will try to start sculpting bigger and even more detailed models starting next month.
My first attempt for a full figure for 2025 will be the Witch King riding a fell beast. The plan is to start creating much more complex models every month combined with releases i will be commissioning with other great artists like we already started doing during 2024. The amount of original concepts will keep being more of course compared to the fanart ones. Since i am in the process of recruiting more artists , my intention is to increase the amount of releases we will be having each month, but there is no way i will compromise the quality of the models in order to bring more quantity. I just want you to know that i am doing my best to invest in new and old artists to bring you more quality content on monthly basis.
Talk to you again really soon
Peace
Fotis
