Lost - Hand Painted Custom Taweret Resin Statues

Lost Underground Art Project at Gallery 1988 - Unpainted Custom Taweret Resin Statues
16 blank 8” resin Lost Taweret statues (also known as the mysterious “Four Toed Statue”) were created by hand in an original mold and given to some of The Blot’s favorite artists to customize in their own unique styles. These awesome Lost resin figures debuted at last Tuesday night’s Lost Underground Art Project at Gallery 1988, and the results were amazing! I’ve included a few of my favorite hand painted Taweret statues below, but you can see all sixteen figures here.

The Lost Showdown Series by Scott C.

One of the highlights of this week’s Lost Underground Art Project at Gallery 1988 was the 24 piece Lost Showdown series by Scott Campbell. Each Lost Showdown is a watercolor painting on 5” x 5” archival paper. The Blot’s a huge fan of Scott C.’s work, and I make it a point to read his webcomic Double Fine Action Comics on a weekly basis. If you love pop culture as much as The Blot, you’ll love Scott’s imaginative work!

I’ve been wanting to buy a Scott C. original for a while now, and when I heard he was going to be a part of the Lost Underground Art Project I thought my moment had finally come. Sadly, it didn’t happen as all of my favorite Lost Showdown pieces had already been sold! With 24 pieces it’s definitely hard to pick a favorite, but I’d have to say Echo vs. Smokey or Sawyer vs. Polar Bear are definitely up there as 1A and 1B.
