KRANG! in 3-D!

My recent obsession with TMNT's Krang led me to many amazing finds, first is Speedlee's custom Krang & Android toy -visit his site to see many more awesome customs, including several more custom Ninja Turtles toys.

it seems NECA announced several forthcoming Ninja Turtles toys. Here is a closeup of their version of Krang.

searching the web for "Krang" yielded this clever version of Krang + walker in LEGOS! by oneosendai2600



And lastly, paperfoldables.com has a fantastic downloadable PDF to make your very own foldable Krang + android, click! download! make! *and if anyone is clever enough to make a foldable MACRODON, that would be pretty freaking awesome!

quite fitting, right?

071 - DIA DE LOS MUERTOS

after completing this MACRODON, I envisioned him, more squat, shorter, and stockier, so I Photoshopped it some:



This is what I have been up to the past few days: paper-mâché He-Man Hair,
in stiff-looking, plastic-like, bowl-cut, page-boy fashion!



After all the fun with the PUMA shoes, I could not help myself,
this MACRODON's Halloween costume: HE-MAN!



and my wife's costume this year was Amelia Earhart, with some great vintage Wilson welding goggles, but in this case, visually perfect for an aviator costume, as fashionably sported by this Macrodon:



Okay, that was another, fun, ridiculous post.
I always assumed Macrodons had eyes, and well, really any other body part not previously represented in these illustrations, but putting goggles on it's "head", over it's "eyes" (and whose to say it's eyes are on it's "head"), a sword in it's "hand" (obviously gripped with fingers), etc., was a little disconcerting at the time... I prefer the vague anatomical visual description I have previously given them, so for now, I don't think we'll be seeing any paper-doll style dressing of Macrodons anymore...

062 + VARIATIONS

I noticed, most (if not all) MACRODONS don't have very prominent feet, so this one is inspired by the PUMA shoe exhibit at DWR, and my designs for a MACRODON PUMA RS-100.

I was conflicted about giving this one arms... so I made some arms I could add or remove, painted on paper attached to a piece of clear acetate.

And also, my wife said something about "The Thinker", so I had some fun with that too. The removable appendages (and accessories):





(with arms, above)



("The Thinker", above) No disrespect to Rodin, but I'd like to think his work has a certain influence on my interpretation of a MACRODON.

And, at this point, the silly is on, going full circle, back to the PUMA sneaks:



With shoes this sick why would a MACRODON not wear shoes?
