TTC Beard
Unsurprisingly, the custom Superplastic Janky series by UK’s finest Doktor A sold out pretty sharpish this evening. As you would fully expect. A series of eight custom Janky, Dok A created the Airship Factory. Each one-off custom sold for £200. Each piece of each figure down to the last individual rivet has been carefully chosen, crafted and hand placed. So we figured, it definitely needs sharing with the wider world! Check it!
For the last three months I have been working away, putting this series of unique customised Janky characters together.
I have pushed the detail levels usually found on a 3″ figure. Adding tons of idiosyncratic, character building stuff. The inclusion of many props help add story to each piece.The Airship Factory in Retropolis has many moving parts and many skilled craftsmen. Each doing their part to create the large sky bound Mechtorians that float about the city.
