A brief history

This will be the first post in almost exactly 7 years. The reason for returning here will soon become clear. This is more likely to become a very personal history of all the shit that's been dragging me to a point in last November (4th), where I seriously considered ending my life. A touch melodramatic, but an honest statement nonetheless. So what exactly 'dragged' me to the edge of the abyss? One word... Matalan. Or to be more accurate 5 shit stained years at the whim of the megalomaniac harridan at the helm of the chaotically mismanaged store 300 in Edinburgh. I can state that because as of july 14th 2016, I ceased to exist... that's a story for another time. My intention is to display the evidence I collected over my 5 torturous years at store 300 to back up my claims that the store management held a bitter grudge against me, I'll also show the statements of those involved admitting what they did. Am I bitter? Absolutely. Is this spite of a disgruntled employee? Why yes it is. Right now you're wondering why would a current employee risk their job with such a blatant infraction of Matalans social media rule? Oh that's easy to answer, you see Matalan have pretty much abandoned me. This is another thing I'll back up, but for now I'll just say that after a period of sick, I've not had any contact with my 'employer' since April 1st 2020, it is now July 31st. Abandoned. Anyway it's late, so more details soon, for anyone that actually bothers to read this.

chang31ings the webcomic NEW PAGES

As the title suggests there are more pages now up on the chang31ings webcomic, simply click the link at the top of the page to get there(>:))

Just had to share this image of issue four and the final issue in the first story arc of the chang31ings.

For anyone that is interested, a new chang31ing is now available on the ebay store....it's the Vampire Bride, she comes boxed and sealed with a certificate of authenticity and is now looking for a new home.

Yesterday I received the cyborg arm for the 1/3 scale dolls.

I had already decided to give it to the doll we now call Lilly.

I replaced her brown eyes with some lovely blue ones, the only problem was that the cyborg arm had a slightly different elbow joint to the doll itself.  Using trusty old Milliput I made a basic elbow joint to do the job and sprayed it silver.  This was the result.

The last picture shows her standing next to a 30cm/12 inch doll to give you an idea of scale.  

The new doll and character Lilly.  She will appear in issue three and four of the comic and brings with her something of a surprise to the story.

This gorgeous creature arrived this morning.  We haven't named her yet and this may not be her final look, but she will be part of the changelings story, around issue four around November and will be instrumental in bringing this story arc to a close.

Too late Detective Mackie realised he was out of bullets and Derna was closing on him brandishing an antique WWII blade.....

Two of the dolls that will be going up for sale in the coming weeks, pictured here from a scene that plays out in issue three of the changelings comic.

Below is a picture of the teen version of Derna, again we will visit her in a future issue of changelings, this doll also will be up for sale relatively soon.

4 variants of the second issue cover for changelings....I know which one I like does anyone have a preference?

Changelings at Bristol Comic Expo 2013

Over the weekend of May 11th and 12th, we took the changelings to the Bristol Comic Expo for the first time. A range of dolls and an accompanying comic book. The reception was amazing to say the least. Not only can you get yourself a one of a kind doll that is hand created, YOU can decide exactly what it is you're getting. Always wanted a doll/action figure of your very own character, then we can do that for you. It takes up to four weeks for you to get your boxed, certificated doll, and should you want it we can also do a unique one page comic to go with it. You could even get a doll that bears more than a passing resemblance to yourself....one possibility is to have the small bland couple on your wedding cake replaced by dolls who look like you as a keepsake of your big day. The possibilities are endless, and no, we're not as expensive as you may think. Simply drop us an email for details or if you have any questions....or visit our ebay shop to see what's on offer.

Well the first day of the Bristol comic expo is almost over, and what a day. Changelings will be going fully live as of this coming Monday. So come back then to see what dolls we have on offer.

Been very busy with the final stages of the 30 cm/12 inch dolls, at the same time we have a few new dolls that will be with us at the Bristol Comic Expo on May 11th and 12th. Including a massive 70 cm version of Derna that just arrived yesterday, who towers above the others. Here are some pictures.

Today we have the final look of mercury, complete with nher custom made sidearm and headset.

The final image for the Droogette(>:))

New picture of the large doll in a hand made kilt to match her red boots. The top of her has still to be finalised, however it looks like this outfit will end up on another doll.(>:))
