“Saved by Samus” Painting by ValleyDweller Charity Auction

Inspired by the recent tragedy in Oklahoma, ValleyDweller had decided put his epic painting video game inspired painting "Saved by Samus" up for auction on eBay with all proceeds being donated to the Red Cross. The painting was originally created for Gallery 1988's "Old School Video Game Art Show" in September of 2011. It features Earthworm Jim being carried out of rubble by Samus Aran from Metroid. The original intent of the piece was to play up that Jim had a crush on Samus, but in light of the recent tornado disaster in Oklahoma ValleyDweller hopes that it becomes a bit more about the rescue itself.

“Saved by Samus” is a 12”x16” acrylic on canvasboard painting and comes framed. It’s been listed on eBay starting at $25 to cover materials, and everything beyond that amount will be donated to the Red Cross.

October Ch'Orb Resin Figures by ValleyDweller

Last weekend Toy Break held its now annual “Day with Toy Break”, a 24 hour marathon show held to raise funds to help produce the weekly internet show. Artists from around the globe donated art and toys to help raise funds for this awesome show. One such artist was Jeremy Dale aka JerO aka ValleyDweller, who created a set of 10 awesome October Ch’Orb resin figures during the marathon and offered to donate half of the sale price of each figure that sold during the marathon to Toy Break.

Jeremy created the original October Ch’Orb as a gift to October Toys, but after figure was featured on Toy Break he received so many requests to purchase one he decided to make an entire set. The Blot was lucky enough to pick up the October Ch’Orb you see above during a Day with Toy Break, and I love it! There are still a few left, and Jeremy is currently selling them blind bagged via his online store for $20 each. What’s even better is that as of right now half of the sale price is still being donated to Toy Break, so you can get an awesome hand painted resin figure and donate to a good cause all at the same time!
