Hello, everyone! Iron-Cow Prod. is back customizing after a year hiatus to focus on painting. I am pleased to unveil my latest creation: Green Lantern in Autobot Armor. Click on either the image above or HERE to find out more details on this fun project and view the work. Don’t forget to follow Matt Cauley / Iron-Cow Prod. so that you receive the latest news, updates, and behind-the-scenes insight. You can keep up to date by signing up for the Iron-Cow Prod. Facebook page, the Iron-Cow Prod. Email Updates List, or follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter. Of course, feel free to follow them all, as each is has their own unique benefits. Oh, and that part above about me taking a year off from customizing? I lied. I’ve been busy the entire time, but when you’re working on a massive 86-piece project, it takes a bit of time to get them all done. More details in the new year. Happy Holidays, everyone! As always, would be grateful for any feedback you might have! Matt Cauley |
Hello, everyone! I FINALLY got around to photographing my HOUND collection. I can’t quite explain it, but ever since I was a child, I had a soft spot for this particular Transformer. Near as I can tell, this is *EVERY* Hound figure released so far (aside from the G1, which is represented here by the later re-issue). The jeep on the far left is a custom I made using a M.A.S.H. jeep, the tan G1 Hound is technically a Decepticon, but I’m pretending he’s “Hound in Desert Camo”, and the smaller Jeep towards the right is another custom. This image is about to be out of date with the movie and other toys coming up, but I’m having fun knowing (for now) my Hound collection is complete.

Hello, everyone! Iron-Cow Prod. is pleased to showcase its new additions to the Vintage Kenner Star Wars action figure line! These figures are meant to fill in some gaps, expand the line a bit, and generally have some fun revisiting childhood nostalgia. When possible, I left any paint scrapes on the original figures intact for any intentional visual aging effect.

Hello, everyone! This latest painting was both a commissioned piece as well as being a bit of an experiment for me. I had worked with Molly previously for one of my Big Heads portrait paintings. That painting was a personal success for me, and a project I very much enjoyed. Molly’s parents were fond of the painting as well, and were interested in purchasing it, provided I might make some alterations to the image (most notably painting out the Batman comic). I was happy with the painting the way it was, but offered a compromise: I would paint Molly a second time, this time crafting the painting more towards their sensibilities.
