Comic Book Sculptors from Texas who live in dark caves, only venturing out into the sunlight on very rare occasions
Pirate King 2.0, this version is much larger than we usually work and will end up significantly different from the original, smaller Pirate King sculpture that was featured in our book, Clay Sculpting with The Shiflett Bros #claysculping #traditionalsculpture #traditionalsculpting #shiflettbros

Our Chupacabra sculpture, sculpted in J-Mac Classic Clay for monumental work. Biggest piece we’ve ever done, ended up as a one-off bronze with help from our awesome friends at Pyrology Foundry. Installed on a private ranch in West Texas. 😊#claysculpting #claysculpture #chupacabra #shiflettbros

The mighty Apocalypse sculpted by hand (as always with our old asses!) in Aves Apoxie Sculpt, a private commission created for a huge X-Men fan. We love the X-Men too, those characters and comics are what got us started sculpting 😊🖤 #xmen #apocalypse #claysculpting #comicbooksculptingnerdsfromtexas

Wolvie rough in Super Sculpey. We’ve sculpted more Wolverines in our spare time than is even remotely reasonable over a 30 year period. Like triple digits haha. We’re ridiculous 😊🖤

I believe this was in Amazing Figure Modeler Magazine 🖤

As long as Ben Oliver keeps making Blade Runner art, I’ll keep re-posting those pieces. This deal lasts until the end of time in my mind 😊🖤

Super Sculpey. An 20+ year old piece that we pulled off the shelf and refurbished. This shot is somewhere mid-way in that process 😊

Young me with the iconic master, the late, great Yasushi Nirasawa at my and Jarrod’s table at the San Diego Comic-Con in the early 1990s. For us, it was like meeting Elvis in person 😊🖤
