Here’s an updated look at the Bone Ghost Agents previously mentioned in 2009. Working with our friend Eric Nocella Diaz (aka Argonaut Resins), Sam created the Bone Ghost Agent limited-edition resin figure. Sculpted by Eric, while designed and individually hand-painted by Sam, the Bone Ghost Agents have been a tremendously successful project: selling out all sculpts to date. Adding to collector value, each figure was sold packaged with a signed print and Certificate of Authenticity. See pics below for 2010 product development.

Here’s a look at a new image Sam prepared for ACME Archives and Lucasfilm. Meticulously built in vectors, and colored in Photoshop, Sam’s image portrays popular characters from the Dark Side in this striking commemoration of the 30th anniversary of Empire Strikes Back. Dave helped complete the image by working with Sam on re-producing a four-color-process printing effect as found in the Marvel Star Wars comics. Officially released at the Star Wars Celebration in Orlando, signed Artist Edition prints will be available soon at our sister site, Moon Toad Productions.

In keeping with our previous posts on past events, here’s a look at our show at the Wootini Gallery way back in 2005. Sam pulled out all the stops with a huge body of new work. Working together, we created an enormous selection of merchandise for the show including shirts, posters, stretched canvases, toy prototypes, pix-cels and more. Pretty amazing, eh? (Especially considering we could scarcely work a digital camera in those days!) Enjoy the gallery below.

Along with our commercial work, Royalties Media regularly invests considerable energy in the development of our own intellectual properties. While it wouldn’t be prudent to share with you closely guarded secrets and pitch bibles, we would like to use this post to give you an overview of some of the incredible character design Sam has come up with. (Image samples below. Full-screen slideshow may load slowly: please be patient.)

Here’s a look at some illustrations Sam did for the Johnny Ramone Army. Working from concepts by JRA Chief of Staff John Cafiero (Osaka Popstar), Sam delivered a set of illustrations which have since appeared on apparel, VIP passes, buttons, patches and lots of other great merchandise. To see the animation we worked on for the Johnny Ramone Army (under Executive Producer Linda Ramone & Producer John Cafiero), please click here. To visit the JRA website, please click here.

With character design by Royalties’ co-founder, Sam Fout, 800lb. Gorilla is another merchandising concept we developed in 2007. Working with Diamond Comics and a sculpting partner, the line garnered considerable interest at the 2007 International ToyFair in New York. Though it is yet to be released as a full-scale merchandise line, 800lb. Gorilla remains at Royalties among a respectable list of optional properties.

With character design by Royalties’ co-founder, Sam Fout, Lemon Lime is a merchandising concept we developed in early 2007. Working with Diamond Comics and a sculpting partner, Lemon Lime gained considerable acclaim at the 2007 International ToyFair in New York. Though it is yet to be released as a full-scale merchandise line, Lemon Lime remains at Royalties among a respectable list of optional properties.
