NYCC 2010 Exclusive Brent Nolasco x Blamo Mijo Resin Figure

The Brent Nolasco x Blamo Resin Project will be introduced to the world at New York Comic-Con 2010 at the Tenacious Toys booth # 2878. This project was created as a way for Brent to express himself with a series of non-conventional releases. Brent wanted the process of making figures and products to be more fine art than mass production. He wanted a more "hands on" approach to making his next figure, which brought him to the medium of resin.

The first resin figure in the Brent Nolasco x Blamo Project is Mijo (My Child). This 5.5” figure was painted with acrylic paints and will retail for $300 each. Brent first sculpted the Mijo figure by hand, something he had never done before. The figure consists of 6 pieces that are hand casted separately and each piece is then hand painted by Brent, so there is slight variation in each paint job. This ensures each piece is truly unique and has its own characteristics that set them apart from other figures in the release.

Brent likes that they are more organic and free-formed than pieces from a factory which pumps out products for the masses. It makes each release more personal. The runs on these upcoming figures are going to be limited quantities, while others will be just "one-offs". Brent is looking to do some sculpting and other interesting things with these figures to keep the ideas fresh.
