Not just cool, really fucking cool. This set of wooden robots by Tyler Jackson are no exception. Set in a post-apocalyptic world, the BLANKS series are created from found wood and other objects, reflecting Tyler’s need to spread awareness about how our lives effect the environment as well as reducing his own robot shaped carbon footprint.

There is a man who paints both of these things so well, so beautifuly dark and dynamic, that whenever I look at his work it makes me want to never touch a paintbrush again as I know I’ll never get near this guy. His name is Ashley Wood.

He’s been one of my all time favorite artists for years now and apart from painting THE most awesomest women, robots and monsters he also puts out the most high quality, hand finished scale replica robots I’ve seen so far. A while back I treated myself to his last release, Deep Powder Bramble and I’m so glad I did. The thing sold out pretty fast and when it arrived I couldn’t believe the size, quality and finish.

Well today has seen the release of the next in the series, Large Martin. These things are pretty pricey but if you find yourself a bit flush and your into this kind of thing, you will not be dissapointed.

More Ashley Wood niceness HERE , HERE and HERE.
