it still amazes me how we went from a concept, just shooting ideas, almost a year ago and then actually taking that leap of faith. we even had one moment where it almost didn't happen, but we got through it. i know this is your dream bro, but i am honored that your letting jorge and I share this with you. It's going to be one exciting ride and you've got your friends, fans and family behind you all the way.

Hi Erick,

Just letting you know that you are my favorite sculptor. I love who you re-create the artist work and translate it into 3D. I hope you all the best. I know I would definately be picking up commissions from you in the future.

Cheers mate!

Wow man, I am sorry, you know every now and then I feel a bit of pain, but that is when I know I have to stop working... honestly I am afraid to work myself to death, so this is one of the main reason for this change.
So are you doing better now?
In any event, thank you!

Thanks man, well I am not leaving traditional sculpting at all, but more like using Cg as a tool ( mainly for Koto, but I will still make sure they look like they were hand sculpted) to do things faster, (build ups, posing, anatomy, accessories). Now, I wish someone asked me to do some large scale stuff done by hand, I've always wanted to do large scale busts.

COOL! Hope I can get tickets this year.


Any chance of doing king of fighter characters along with the Street Fighter ones for prototypezstudio? Industry is long overdue for a de-facto Terry Bogard statue
