Check Out our In Progress Santa Sleigh VW Bug Mutant Vehicle!!

By


  HOHOHO!!! Christmas Time is Near!! And we are busy, busy, busy building Santa's New Sleigh!! 



 Can't you hear those sleigh bells jingling!!

Our full fabrication is almost complete!  Can't wait to see this baby hit the street!  Full engine and all, this VW Bug Conversion will make one sweet ride. Our Tremendous Themimg Crew has been working day and night to complete Santa's new whip!!! 
As soon as the base casshi of the car, in its raw form, arrived at the shop, we have been welding and sculpting away like little elves until all the pieces fit just right. 


 These reindeer where a fun challenge to sculpt but nothing that THEMENDOUS could not handle!! Joe and Eddy rocked the form and texture to the tee, but a lot of hard work was involved.  Soon they will be leading the sleigh down the local roads of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee for Fee Hendrick Family Entertainment. This vehicle is going to be the star of their parade.

With the reindeer complete, all we have left is to rock out all the finishing details of the sleigh and paint it a stunning red with gold trim!  We all can't wait to complete this one and watch her take the streets by storm.  Although a long process of perfection, we are eager to continue making more mutant vehicle automobile conversions in the future for more clients as well as personal use on the playa during 2015 art festival in the desert. Stay tuned for more details and sneak peaks!!

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2011 PREVIEW

One of our latest projects: Our Victoria's Secret PINK dog mirror balls make their appearance in this youtube video at 4:19 in. We made a total of 8 dogs at 3ft long each. We then scored the internet for pink glass tile suppliers and cleaned up everything out there. Yes folks, there are NO MORE pink glass tiles available. This was a great and challenging project to say the least, as there were the usual delays that happen when you take on not only a custom project, but a prestigious one as well. Everything had to be spot on to Victoria's Secret Pink Brand. The usual multitude of emails, texts and conference calls between our shop, the local production studio and the VS France office took place. Once we were off and running with our sculptures, we needed to find the pink glass mirror tiles and as mentioned above, there were not many out there and all needed to be special ordered and cut to our specifications. Those tiles then needed to be overnighted, or we would not b...

Beard styles to chose from

By
So this is where you guys get to have some fun. Remember, the style with the most votes wins and I will hold on to that style for at least 1 month (maybe more, if I like it). But remember the rule is that you have to donate directly to Give Kids the World . They have a several easy ways for you to do so. One last thing... I am a publicly seen person in several places. I am also a member of my town's school board of education so, I WILL have to "sport" the look that gets the highest vote. To register your vote, simply make a comment on this post and the tally will be there for all to see. Now go. Go and donate whatever you can. As little or as much and don't forget to spread the word to all your social network friends! Thanks. Giovanni Calabrese This is what I used to look like before the beard! Man, I need a shave!

Top Secret Project - Episode 2

By
If you were to Google "Custom Creations", you would find that we excel in oversized props, 3D styrofoam sculpture and black light miniature golf to name but a few of our abilities. (BTW, we also have the ability to walk through walls and doors...shhhhhhh!) Anyway, when this TOP SECRET internationally known company Googled us, they knew they were knocking on the right doors (it was almost as if they knew we were about to walk through them. Hmmmmmmm) Day 2: We ran a hard day and made some serious progress with this and other projects going on at the same time! Maritza is tied up in the office (she was a bad girl) and I took over the camera...
