Welp... I was going to go outside and take some awesome photos in the garden and sunlight... buuut it's windy as hell so... We got some awesome desk photos! ✨ These are the next three figurines I will be releasing on Monday July 20th. And no... That is not a baby space marine. It's a minifigure roughly half the size of full size figures (about 2" tall). ✨ All of these figures are in editions of 4. They come with a stand, extra ties and one of my awesome new stickers! Save that cheddar for Monday if you want to grab one! ✨ #taylorhicksart #twistoffate #twistoffateart #twistties #twisttieart #dothetwist #actionfigure #toy @handmadetoy #handmadetoys #handmadetoy #spacemarine https://www.instagram.com/p/CCtf1u8jS8K/?igshid=v3df5j67jhaf

Well times have been busy. I recently got a new job and started doing multiple projects around the house. In the time that I've actually been able to do art, I've had a few commissions and cleaned up a bunch old pieces. I have a few big things baking in the oven. One of then being that I have accepted that I will never have one set style. And that's okay.

I read an article by the illustrator @kyle.t.webster about being a professional artist with multiple styles. It has been a challenge for him but has ultimately worked out. It's definitely something that I struggled with all through school and I never got into a good swing. Untill now... I will be embracing all of my creative outlets from this point on and I have no plans on turning back or turning it down. Posting consistently may be a challenge for me but it's not nearly a hard as surrendering to a single style. These images are a glimpse into a few of my styles that I will be focusing on. I will be updating bit by bit and it'll be quite a journey. But if you'll indulge me, I'm sure you'll have a good time as well. Thanks guys.

This may look like a menagerie to you…but I see battle torn space warriors with jetpacks and laser rifles who have encountered numerous enemies on the field of battle.

Some of these are over 10 years old 😮 ••• #taylorhicksart #twistoffateart #twistoffate #sculptures #figurines #spacemarine #twistties #bagties #3d #illustration https://www.instagram.com/p/B1EWvmcAwHN/?igshid=16cdyr1zib1hu

But maaan...there are some gems in here. ••• #taylorhicksart #twistoffateart #twistoffate #twisttieart #twisttiecraft #twistties #3dillustration #figurines #tabletop #imagination #art #614artsts #columbusmakesart #ohioartists https://www.instagram.com/p/B8ophYxg3uq/?igshid=3qyov343j9ld

A sneak peak of what's behind every Twist of Fate figurine. The first picture is my old stamp that I used on my sculptures and bases. I now have an awesome "TF" specifically for my twist-tie figurines. Each figure will have a stand with that has the series and edition number. Additionally, I put together a little guide with instructions, handling and warnings. These figures will be decked out! ••• #twistoffateart #taylorhicksart #twistoffate #3d #3dillustration #armeture #figurine #twistties https://www.instagram.com/p/B8J5ZERgroy/?igshid=7mtdbgq2foxl

⚡TWIST OF FATE UPDATE⚡ ➖ So I've been working on a users guide and manual for my figurines. I'm still trying to square away all of the info that someone would need to know about how to properly handle one. This is a page of icons and design that might get turned into stickers. Thought it looked neat so I decided to share it. More updates soon. ➖ #taylorhicksart #twistoffateart #twistoffate #dothetwist #twistties #3dart #sculpture #graphicdesign #illustration #vectorart https://www.instagram.com/p/B3xcqeHAKjF/?igshid=12gw5xb3df8ij
