iLLUMINOIDS : arriving by the start of next week





Hi All,

Its been a little while from the last post. I've been slowly working away on my new resin and gocco bulb toy. :) And Im happy to say they are finished!! All that is left is to make the little badges to go with them which I will be doing this week. The boxes are gocco printed and constructed and the iLLUMINOIDS are sitting in them waiting for their adventures to begin.

There will be 6 pairs on sale hopefully at the end of this week. I'll have to dust off my web knowledge again to update the ozzelorium page haha.

There is only 6 pairs for sale this time because I dont use that many Gocco Bulbs, and i've only managed to save 12 from the bulbs i've used in the past. I used to throw them away before I thought of using them to make little characters. whoops.

Anyway, enough rambling for now. If you are on the mailing list you will receive an email about them going on sale and I will also put an update post on here by the end of the week with photos. :)

You can see some of the early prototypes and castings here : my flickr page.

Speak to you soon.

Porlzilla is on Twitter!



Hi everyone, I kept hearing about Twitter from people at work and my works website going on there I thought I would try to get Porlzilla.com on there too. With a little fangling and questions to my web developer friend the RSS FEED is now running on Porlzilla's new Twitter page. :)

I just thought it might be good for the people that use Twitter to get updates from Porlzilla on there. So if you want to get Twitter updates from the site then follow : Porlzilla's Twitter

Catch you later

2 Custom toys now available in Customs Shop





Hi everyone. Im running a little short on space in my bedroom so I've decided to put two of my custom toys i've painted for shows up for sale in the Customs Area of the Ozzelorium.

The first is a Mini Munny called Mr. Hyde which I painted for the "Show Me the Mini Munny" show at Go Go Plastic in Birmingham last year.

And the second is a Plushform that I customised for the First Annual Plushform Show at Shoparooni in Ohio, USA. I added 2 extra material arms and a tail to turn it into the little cheeky monkey from my Monkey Loves Oranges Gocco Print. One of the prints will be tucked in with the little monkey's box too ;)

Anyhoo, hope you guys like them.

catch you later.

The Resin Collective : Resin Toy Show





Hi all, I thought I would give you a quick update on whats been going on in the world of Porlzilla. Well updates have been a little quite as I've been slugging away trying to get my new toy : The iLLUMINOIDS all made up. A little update on them if you havent seen them on my flickr photostream they are a mixture of resin bodies with used Gocco PG-5 bulbs for the heads. Im really pleased with how they are coming along but they have been slowed slightly because of the Resin Collective show shown in the banner above. :)

We were asked if we would like to submit some peices to this show at Red Hot Robot's shop in america (if you click the banner you can shoot over to their site) which is showcasing loooooads of amazing Resin Toy artists that are down for making their own toys and getting them out there. :) Unfortunetly Jon is major league busy painting customs up for people, check them out on his flickr photostream, so im submitting 2 peices for it.

I've been doing a custom iLLUMINOID and a new toy i've had half finished for a while. More updates soon as I need to get them finished off haha.

Anyhoo, a bit of a longer post than i thought it would be. Head on over to Red Hot Robots site and check out the full artist lists, and from what i've seen from some submissions already there is gonna be some amazing stuff there!

Catch you later :)

Just like the Ozzels before them they are handmade in resin plaster and hand-painted. Each one is an individual, no camo pattern, black oil or blood splatters are the same. :)
