MANY TIMES HAVE PAST BY BRENT NOLASCO

Introducing "Many Times Have Past" by Brent Nolasco







"This custom was a lot of work. It seems like it demanded and wanted my full attention like a child. The concept behind this custom was to sculpt a little more then I use to. The paint job is to be abstract and defined all at the same time. So when you are look at it you visually go from things being transparent ,translucent to defended. To construct the piece I used Ave Sculpt to sculpt the head and other parts of the body. With all my custom I like to use a variety of objects and materials to make the custom." - Brent Nolasco

Many Times Have Past is to be released on March 27th, 2010 at Crewest during the Bic Buddy Custom Show.
