  • Army of Doughboy

    18May
    Categories: Brand Icons, Portfolio, Presentation Comments: 0

    These 8 inch tall maquettes were sculpted to be the official look of the Pillsbury Doughboy for licensing purposes. Producing silicone molds from the sculpture, multiples were then cast in house and painted. These are sent out to companies that want to license the Doughboy image for products such as this. Any reproductions are to be based on the likeness of these maquettes.

    Later we used the molds to cast hundreds of copies, but painted them gold. Attached them to thicker bases with engraved plaques. They were then handed out to General Mills/Pillsbury employees as an achievement award.

    LadyJustice

    This bas relief sculpture of Lady Justice and Child was created to help raise awareness of  The Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi Foundation for Children.  It stands about ten feet tall and made of EPS foam with a faux bronze coating to keep weight to a minimum.

    It has been on display at the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport since May of 2008 in the G Concourse. For more information on the Foundation and this installation, click here.

    Test Tubes

    Oversized test tubes made as a pitch prop for Periscope.  Tubes are 6 inch diameter acrylic with vacuum formed caps.  The rack is made of Sintra and PVC with an acrylic lacquer paint finish. Of course it needed to be shipped, so a shipping crate was constructed. Photograph by Kyle Johnson-MacPherson.
