Lake Monsters: Chris Ryniak’s Big Muscamoot

lm001-02

 

Now this is cool.  Rotofugi and Squibbles Ink are readying a new artist series featuring original monster figures.  In an interesting twist, Lake Monsters will feature rotocast vinyl produced in china that will then be hand-painted in the States.  If that’s not a first, it’s certainly very rare. 

Painter, sculptor, and mad man Chris Ryniak has been taped to do several of the sculpts for the series.  A great choice as Chris has an uncanny knack for brining the macabre, strange, and well wondrous to life with a startling real unreality.   His imagination and creativity are on full display for the first figure which he designed and sculpted – Big Muscamoot. This is Chris’s first (and well-deserved) original vinyl fig.

The first drop is slated for sometime this spring.  We’re definitely looking forward to it and whatever else emerges from the slimy depths. [Source: Hi-Fructose]
