Becoming Official: Getting Closer to MWHC!

We are now officially on the list of Midwest Haunters Convention Vendors, we are looking forward to it!

We will be in booth 805 at the Columbus Convention Center, June 4-5, 2011 selling MWS merchandise: prosthesis, masks, props, etc, as well as taking orders and custom design orders.

Come out for good entertainment, classes and workshops, but most importantly: stop by and say hi!

Tony and I will be at our booth all day Sat and Sun to meet and greet, show off the 2011 lines and possibly sculpt in person a little, who knows.

Our booth design has been tweaked and construction has commenced!  We are excited to see how it turns out and ballpark completion by the end of the week! For those of you who cannot make it to MWHC this year, we will be taking lots of photos we will be uploading here and in the galleries at MetalWaterStudio.com
so check in after the show.

We are also bringing new designs for 2011, and we will see new color schemes from client favs like our little faun horns, a house fav for our customers. One of our 2011 schemes for all horn lines will be Gunmetal:

 

We also have designed a new Devilish scheme for 2011, revamped and more vibrant!

We are letting everyone know that if there are specific things they would like to see brought to the show, the let us know by the last two weeks in April.

We hope to see everyone there, come out and plaaayyyy ayyyy!

Arachnid Mask Finish

Here it is kids, nice and creepy, just the way you like it:

 

T. C. here took it to a very horrific level and it turned out great with the fit to the facial features. 

 

More photos and schemes to come.

No. 3 in ButtonEye: Arachnee A.K.A The Puppet Master Coming Soon!

The third in the series by T Colque here, is the Arachnee Button Eye as I've been calling it, a hybrid that takes on an eerie arachnid personality.

In Greek and Roman Mythology, as well as folklore from cultures all over the world, Arachne was a great mortal weaver and loomstress who's skill was so admired, people came from all over to see her. Her fame became so intoxicating, that Arachne boasted her skill surpassed that of the great Goddess Minerva (or Athena as most of us know her).

Arachne insulted the goddess by not acknowledging that her skill ultimately came from Athena, so the goddess in upset, pitched a contest between Arachne and herself. Ultimately the goddess became so enraged with jealousies toward the the mortal's weaving success (and not to mention the subject matter of her weaving--The Twenty One Episodes of infidelity by the Gods), that Athena tore apart the work and ultimately condemned Arachne to life as a spider.
"So you shall live to swing, to live now and forever, Even to the last hanging creature of your kind."

We hope to release this finished design in the next week, so stay tuned and check out the Etsy store, and our web catalog coming soon to our official site.

Website and Store Coming Soon!

Finally! MWS will have an official public site with a public store. We love Etsy, it gave us our first store and our first shot, and we are grateful and better for it. We will still be keeping our store there, however time and demand has come that we have an official domain and finally here it is, store coming soon!:

                    Designed by K Firor of MWS, we are very excited to have our public domain.


We will be releasing a catalog in our new store with the new designs so far from 2011, plus some things we haven't released yet. We have been working to release new prosthesis designs and have really enjoyed doing some things that we haven't seen yet.

We love these Black Gunmetal back spikes. They're great for many uses (we particularly like them on the arms, photos coming soon). They are very light, and easy to apply and use, T.C. here couldn't even feel them on in the photo shoot.
We sculpt the skin like we sculpt the horn, so they are easier to blend and a lot more realistic than your average appliance. We will be releasing similar designs, clusters, and other body appliances, as well as another mask line---or two!
