A.I.M. Soldiers ATTACK!!!!!

Will Captain America lead our heroes to victory?
Could the Thing be crushed in two? …hmm… not likely.
But things are looking a little dicey for our neighborhood superheroes in my newest diorama!

Aw Shucks, I’m jumping ahead! Let’s go back in time to when it all began (*reminder: I don’t just pull these out of my tussie people. I spend long hours of sculpting, cutting, gluing and painting. Heck, sometimes I think I’m in kindergarden!).

In the beginning:

Is it a lunar landing? Or is it toooooons of plaster & styrofoam sculpting?

Cactus Pup getting into trouble!!!! Ack! Too close to the edge! (I’ve seen cactus pups die from less…)

After coating everything with green paint & adding some scenic “accouterments”, the tentacles decide to give me a hard time. I showed them who’s the boss tho. Me and my 18 megatons of hot glue!

Feats of acrobatics to keep those puppies up. You def didn’t want to mess with me that day… hoo boy, I was not a happy camper.

Step of obviousness: take pics.

Add a wee bit of filters & lighting effects in Photoshop:

And you get a kick a** Marvel Diorama!

My personal favorite is above…maybe cause it reminds me of Delacroix’s Liberty Leading the People. Yep, my ego just imploded.

Next stop! Perhaps BSG? Or Ghostbusters? Yippie!

P.S. Hey People! Word just came down that I’ll be joining the inmates the SDCC booth! Stop by & gimmie a holla & some comments! Feedback = happytime
