2025 highlight reel!

Toad the Wet Sprocket in 2024

Working with Toad the Wet Sprocket in 2024 was an incredible experience. Their music has deeply influenced me throughout my adult life, and it was truly rewarding to collaborate with them on several projects, including music videos, interviews, and tour promotions. Here’s a quick recap video I produced of the Toad 2024 tour:

Office Hours Global interview

I had the distinct pleasure recently to be a part of the Office Hours Global channel. We talked all things production, animation and filmmaking! It was such a pleasure to chat with the team at Office Hours! 

 

A Decade in the Making!

10+ years since I've posted here! Life takes you down so may roads and along the way you have to enjoy the ride as best you can. My resolution for 2025 will be to post more often ... hopefully. No pressure ;)

The Green Hornet: Part 2!

Just got my latest model back from the 3D printer!  Can't wait to paint him . . . if I can ever find the time!  #3Dprinting  #TheGreenHornet  #VanWilliams

My Latest Nerd Hobby!

It's the next adventure in my new venture.  There are two things that I really love: action figures, and the adventure shows that I grew up watching on TV.  Batman, Star Trek, The Green Hornet, Wild Wild West, Superman, Zorro etc.  Of course, they were all in re-runs at the time and there were no toys out there for me to further their adventures in the backyard!  

There were the action figures made by the Mego company - and I certainly loved my Mr. Spock doll, as well as all of my apes from Planet of the Apes!  But the other ones like Batman and Superman didn't look like they did on TV.  I wanted Adam West and George Reeves, not the generic comic book versions!  

Meanwhile, thirty-some years later I suppose little has changed.  I'm still that same kid and I still want my action figures!  My latest custom figure I have in the works is Guy Williams as Don Diego from Disney's 1950's Zorro TV show.  

I love this show and Guy Williams is perfect as Zorro. It's definitely my favorite portrayal of the character to date.  There are a few toys from the show that had come out during that era, but none that are cool action figures that really capture Guy's likeness.  

So using the rapid prototype process I began working on my own.  You can see more on the process in this post: http://imtoddgrimes.blogspot.com/2013/09/rapid-prototyping.html

I kind of like the way he looks in black and white.  Maybe I'll paint one like that!  Now how am I going to make that suit??

More Rapid Prototyping!

Below is one of my latest models created from the 3D printing process.   It's Bruce Wayne!!
