Hey ! 

I hope you're all  doing ok ;)

I've caught covid in March with my whole family.

After a couple of days with high fever I was totally wiped out for almost three weeks and my moral was pretty low. I don't know if it's a symptom of the disease but the lack of moral was the worst aspect of the illness.

Anyhow, I regain slowly my strengh and enthousisam and I would say I'm at 80% percent of my normal game !

I had a real joy when I printed the Bloated Woman and the Sand bat this week. As ever, my sculptures are full of undercuts so I had to gently cut the mould to help remove all the pieces. 

I liked to take over the drawing of the pieces. 

I will share with you a pic when those two will be painted. 

I look forward painting the Bloated woman with all the soft and pearly colors.I will try to print and paint 4 pieces per week from now. 

My schedule has been delayed also with the audience I work with. After the pandermic, there is so much to rebuilt with already fragile populations. I'm sure we will get through this even if it takes time to recreate social bonds.

 I also dedicate a part of time to my "Smashup" paintings for which I already had two orders. I do ned indeed to find new financial ressources to survive.

That's it for today.

Take care everyone !

best,

Delphes

Tokens

We're in January. 

I don't know for you but for me, the relationship to time has changed a loooot with the pandemic. 2021 was quite alike 2020, and this begining of the year appointements are postoned again because of the Omicron. Despite this strange mood, It's still time to wish everybody a happy new year. I hope you'll have a lot of fun in 2022.

Look a the marvallous tokens I received from Campaing Coins ! It was the first token I've ever made and the result is very cool I think. 

It's a real memorabilla coin.

.. I know my schedule for this first semester: January - March : Idol of Cthulhu project's and coordination of our new artistic project in our neighborood ( which funds working time to complete kickstarters). Avril-June : Australia-Shanghai sculptures and artistic animations in our neighborood.

I'll try to make a first piece of the Sand bat sculpture though becase I'm looking forward to see how it looks whith the whole patina. The prototype was in clay so I couldn't experimented the true feeling of painting on the plaster, which is another pleasure..

Best wishes to all of you,

Delphes

Hi everyone,

I hope you had a wonderful summer !

Paper props for Australia and Shanghai are on production. 

I received the Tatttoos: here's a pic;  I hope you  would like them.

The artwork for the coin is done and completed with the work of Campaign Coin's team; I redraw some details in line art to improve the design. Now, Campaing coins is making the mould, then they'll send me samples. I'll send you some images as soon as receive the coins. 

My printer is back, so I'll get the Expedition's portraits this week..and I wait for my printer online to send the image printed on canvas then I can start to paint the Carlyle Expedition portrait for the Deluxe Set of props..  you'll get some pics as well.

Then now, I am able to start the sculptures production !

In sanity,

Delphes

Hey there,

I hope you're doing great all over the globe. 

Short update:

-I'm excited to receive the the two tattoos these days ! they won't be black after all, but dark red for the bloated  woman tattoo and blue for the sand bat's. I'll show you very soon..

- Campaign Coins had another disrupted month in Australia but now, they're working on a corrected version of the Memorabilia coin; I had to make corrections on the first artwork 3D render to improve the final design on each part of the coin.

Next :

1. I approve the art or ask for corrections and we continue until I approved.
2. When I approved, Campaign Coins make samples and send them to me 
3. We launch the production (or we make last final corrections if there is an issue appearing on the sample)

- the poster of the Carlyle's expedition is done and sent to my printer ( who promised to deliver before the 14th of July)

Talk to you soon,

Delphes
