A 4-pack of Micro Bews by Scottoons

With the new year comes a new Scottoons character figure… Bew. Bews are fun-loving spooks that like to play, laugh, and sometimes cause mischief. The first set, Micro Bews, are 1 inch tall resin figures. No two Micro Bews are ever the same. Each one is hand-cast and hand-painted with an expression of its very own. Pricing and availability coming soon. Keep watching to see what else comes out of the Scottoons Bewery!

It’s high time for an update. I’ve been busy busy busy. The Monmouth Museum opening was fantastic!
The Summoner is still there. If you are in or near New Jersey, go check it out! There are some very cool pieces in this Art from Found Objects juried show.

Some new Scottoons pieces are in the works for some upcoming events. The main one is a custom piece based on the Sketchbot blank by Steve Talkwoski. My piece will be just one of many in the Sketchbot Custom Show V2 which features over 70 artists! Sketchbot is a cool figure in of itself, so the show should be phenomenal I can’t wait to see all the different takes by all the participating artists.


Here are some sneak peeks at my customization:

The Summoner v2.0 by Scottoons

Gnarlie Brown and Friends is the third Scottoons kidrobot Mini Munny Custom figure. His closest pals are Stoopy and Stoopy’s little chum, Woodblock. Gnarlie has been the most modified Mini Munny figure I’ve customized so far. He is made from the kidrobot white Mini Munny base figure, Magic-Sculpt clay, scrap fabric, thread, and acrylic paint. Stoopy and Woodblock were hand-built from scratch using Magic-Sculpt, and acrylic paints.

Gnarlie Brown and Stoopy on the rocks by Scottoons

Stoopy doesn’t fetch. Stoopy doesn’t sit. Stoopy doesn’t speak. Stoopy doesn’t heel. Stoopy doesn’t keep up. Stoopy barely remembers to keep breathing. Stoopy does get on Gnarlie Brown’s last nerve, quite often, but they are still best buds anyway.

1. Drawn and quartered. Post-op neck-ectomy.
2. Chest carved away to make room for head.
3. Clay support for head added to the body. Holes drilled in the head to allow the clay to get a better grip.
4. Head is attached. Bottom lip added.
5. Aluminum foil glued on to head to create horn positioning and to become the underlying form.
6. Experimenting with horn shapes. Hunched back added.
7. Adding Magic-Sculpt to foil horns.
8. Horns almost covered.
9. Another view.

“Snooty” the Panic Bot is a robot assemblage sculpture made from recycled found objects. Snooty detects surrounding situations which register on his Calm-O-Meter. He warns everyone when danger is present. He even taught Doctor Zachary Smith’s Robot how to panic. Ironically, when Snooty blasts his vuvuzela-esque warning horn it causes his Calm-O-Meter to detect more environmental chaos making him freak out even more, throwing him into an infinite loop of pure panic.
