    Granox - Lava Demon

    It's been a dream of mine for some time to support artists creating original designs and help them promote their products. So over the last several months I've hooked up with some super talented guys and we have formed what I hope will be a successful venture into the collectibles field. We are pleased to announce our first product which is this insane lava demon named Granox. Sculpted by the super talented Furio Tedeschi who has done loads of concept work for movies and games including Del Toro's upcoming Pacific Rim. this statue is available in gray resin or pre-painted. Check out our site and make sure to keep an eye on things because we have some crazy stuff planned.

    Thanks man. I really hope we can grow this thing and include many other artists. I've been a collectibles sculptor for over a decade and I'm just tired of seeing so many wonderful and original designs go to waste. My philosophy is that if you pay talented people to do what they love, you can't go wrong. You'll get best results every time. There is no 'art director' for our little company. Just talented and motivated people doing what they want to do. I know I've said it before but your work is wonderful btw....

    that philosophy is extremely rare nowadays - its great to hear that such companies still exist, and even better news that new companies emerge with this art-centric point of view. I really hope you succeed - actually I'm pretty sure, seeing all those incredible artists i admired for many years now, I just can't see it going wrong . Also, thanks for you kind words .

    Great idea focusing solely on original characters, how many hulks and batman statues are really necessary?
    Granox looks great, both the sculpt and the paint job. I was going to ask if you'd considered casting it in translucent orange to enhance the fire effect but then looked at your facebook and saw its already been done and looks amazing. Any pics of the whole thing done like that?

    If I had $350 at my disposal right now, I'd pick one up. I absolutely love it!

    This is a fantastic idea. It's like the monster version of Fitchenfoo's Industria Mechanika company!

    Really hope you guys do well, I might have to pick up one of these statues...any chance to get out more original stuff in the market, the better.

    Thanks so much. I really admire what Industria Mechanika is doing. We love original design! Look at all the amazing concept art being posted on these forums every day. You don't have to draw Batman and Superman to be cool!

    Nice, looks very cool. More pictures please!
    And I totally agree with your company philosophy, that´s a very healthy view of the future.
