Includes an official iron-on and sticker from Mani Yack Monsters and each copy will be bagged, tagged, signed and numbered. Limited to 25 copies.

Devil's Workshop 2021 Recap - DW25 Releases

 While I am on hold from regular posting until Summer Break, I wanted to share some of the 2021 Yearbook images that I posted on the Devil's Workshop Instagram page...

 

This will be the last of the Year Book posts that have reflected back on the goings on inside the Devil’s Workshop in 2021...

The DW25 Resurrection sets were my personal favorite projects this past year for a few reasons... 

#1 2021 was the 25th anniversary here at the Devil’s Workshop and the DW25 series gave me the opportunity to revisit some of my favorite original designs from the past 25 years. 

#2 These were wearable sets and seeing the photos that you maniacs took and shared was the COOLEST!!! I was blown away seeing these masks in the wild!

#3 I love any chance to design packaging for masks. I’ve done some bagged and tagged masks in the past (Gayle House Ghoul, Monster Ghost) as well as the Moon Mobster boxed sets, so it was awesome to once again combine my love for design and masks together.

The response for these was incredible, and I thank you all for the amazing support. In 2022 I will continue to look back at some past original designs for additional bagged releases. I don’t own copies of most my old original designs from 1996-98, and I’ll be making these as much for myself as I will for you.

Devil's Workshop 2021 Recap - Cover Projects

 While I am on hold from regular posting until Summer Break, I wanted to share some of the 2021 Yearbook images that I posted on the Devil's Workshop Instagram page...

 

Up next is a recap of the Cover Projects from 2021. For the past 10 years the Devil’s Workshop has created an annual cover project and 2021 continued the tradition with the release of the Monster World Lagoon Monster. By mid-year I had been approached with a commission to create the Black Cat “Melting Man” series followed up with the Chamber of Chills “Ghost Girl”. After sculpting this gruesome two-some, I couldn’t resist creating the Tomb of Terror “Blasted” series. The year came to a close with a whopping 4 Cover Projects and each was a ton of fun to bring to life in three dimensions.

Thank you all for the amazing support on each of these projects. I have some very cool plans for the 2022 Cover Projects that include another commission project that will begin in January. Stay tuned Creeps...

Season's Creepings

 Hey Creeps! The next two weeks will be super hectic over here while I push hard to get two large runs of masks finished up before the holidays. During this time posting will be limited to short bursts of holiday hootenanny featuring festive freaks...
