Hell yea!!!!! that thing is gorgeous man, Simon rocked the house on Ol' Scratch!!! It'll look fantastic next to the full figure Scratch on my shelf. Thanks you J & B for hiring Simon to do this commission! What scale is it in? how soon do you plan on casting it up?
Can't wait to see what Angela does with Principia!
Hope you guys don't mind I posted a link to this at the Clubhouse in the sculpting forum.

Hell yeah, drop me an email at brandon@shiflettbrothers.com.
The original fullsize "Ol' Scratch" is actually Jarrod's though (doesn't matter...I take credit.)

DAMN!! That’s BADASS!!! I swear Simon must be cheating somehow... I think he must have an extra set of hands or something... Wait a minute... a few of his sculptures do tend to have an extra set of limbs somewhere... could they be self-portraits?... You b@astard!!! I figured you out!!! You're a creature sent from another planet to make the sculptors on earth feel bad about themselves then... something, something... TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!! Well not on my watch buddy!!! Me and Will Smith are gonna fly a plane all up in your mothership and foil your evil plans by crashing your sh!t with a virus from our Mac powerbook!!!  Great work as always Simon. That really does scream Ol’ Scratch. Check out my deviant art gallery!

Very cool simon!!!! Love the face expression, so intelligent :-) As usual, great texture, it's so alive! Great work. Did the bro leave you alone with your own vision, or were they actually really hard ( badass.. ) art directors? :-P MIKH. http://www.myspace.com/mikhb

this was based on the bros' design, so all credit goes to them. I dont know what scale this is - with the base, it'll be about 9-10 inches tall. Walter dude, I wish I have two sets of arms - I mean the more I sculpt them, the more they make sense :) well, maybe not with human anatomy - but think about it, when you draw, when you sculpt, when you fight.... damn! that'd be awesome MIKH, the bros are really cool art directors. they give me complete freedom. it's me who got intimidated right out the gate- I mean I'm a little fan boy in front of them... I do have more work to go on this, but it should be ready soon. thanks again friends! Simon Lee / Spiderzero http://www.BigBlueTree.com (new site now live!)

We are absolutely hoping to release this bad boy in resin. We'll also have it painted by somebody really good...if not Simon himself!
