Making Enky's the Art of Enkydu

I've been working on Enky's for the last few week during the night. My sewing machine has been working non-stop as well. I made so many Enky's and I'm very tired, but it was awesome experience working and finishing my plush toys. It was pretty awesome weekend as well having Free Comic Book Day on Saturday and Mothers Day on Sunday. I went to the Golden Apple and Meltdown Comics on Saturday and got myself some cool comics and autographs.

This is me and David Peterson creator and Artist of Mouse Guard great guy and awesome art work so good to see some traditional drawing still happening in the comic book world. This was at Meltdown comics which also had some of the Dark Crystal puppets on Display.

At the Golden Apple they where giving away Green Lantern Rings and hot dogs which made waiting in line extra fun. I also got myself some $1 dollar comic.

This is me and Rorschach in front of the Golden Apple before we took off to Meltdown Comics. I wish I could had gone to all the Comic Book shops on Saturday but with Gas being crazy expensive it these where the closest comic books shops near my house.

 Like I was saying earlier I've been staying up all night sewing and finishing my Enky's Here are a few pictures of the process. I have a pattern that I use to trace on the fleece then cut all the pieces out and get them ready to  sew. It's a long process that I've been getting faster and faster at. A few nights ago my Sewing Machine got busted and slowed down I took it apart and oiled everything but I don't have the speed I used to have. So if anyone out there knows anybody that can fix sewing machines give me a shout out at Tiragomas@Gmail.com I need to fix it because its my lively hood right now. So thanks to anyone that can help me out. In lighter news you can now purchase the Enky's that I made at the four different location.

Lucha Enky's have always been my favorite to make and one thing that has been difficult to use is the vinyl for the mask design. Most people always ask me how I'm able to sew them on so here is my little secret I put tracing paper on top of vinyl and sew right through it. It makes it easier and the tracing paper tears away easily without damaging anything. These wonderful Enky's are for sale at Monkey House Toys.

New Designs (Enky Revolution)

Hello Enkyskull fans It's been a while since I've written in my blog but now i will start posting new updates. If you want to check out my other blog go to Redbaronkustoms.com you can see more of my art work and up coming shows. I have been busy creating some new Enkydu's designs for the shows and the stores. Here are a few new designs that I made and I hope you guys enjoy it. 

Here are my Enky TMNT "Cowabunga Dude" I'm a big fan when it comes to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ever since I saw the cartoons and tried to collect the toys. I wanted to pay homage to my favorite characters and like Vanilla Ice said "Go Turtles Go Turtles GO" .

I introduced them at the Pink Parlour Show and here are the pictures of that show. They are currently for sale at The Flock Shop in China Town so if you want these limited edition TMNT Enky's go visit the Flock Shop you can also place an order there for more.

In other news the material i used to make the Enky-Vaders has ran out at the store where i bought it at. It was a one time deal so whoever bought an Enky-Vader at the shows or at the stores is very lucky because Series 3 sold out at the Pink Parlour. Series 1 Enky-Vaders can be found at the Brat Store in Santa Monica and there is only one left. One series 2 Enky-Vader is at Enid and Edgar in Silverlake. So if you didn't get Enky-Vaders please go to this places and buy them. Thanks to everybody that bought a Enky-Vader.

Here is a new design which is my Enky Tron " I fight for the user!!!" I'm only going to make four of them because I'm using the same material as the Enky-Vaders and I only had enough for four. I will make them this weekend during the spring brake time.

In other news I'm going to start making some Star Wars Enky's here is Enky-Troopers "Dark Side" its going to be a fun brake as i bring these clones to life.

Here is Enky-Fett and this one is going to take a while tomake but once it is done its going to be epic so I hope you guys are ready for the Enky Star Wars Series.

Lastly i'm making some blank Enky's for the Designer Series in which artist who are interested in customizing one can just E-mail at Tiragomas@gmail.com for more information.

I will keep people updated on new designs and shows so thanks for reading
