[BONUS] 431, 432 & 433. Skeletube VII, VIII, IX

Three new additions to my Skeletube army of hand painted vintage vacuum tubes. These were created specifically for the Third Annual Group Show at Glitch Gallery in Richmond, Virginia.

[BONUS] 423. Skeletube VI

Another member of my Skeletube army of hand painted vintage vacuum tubes. This one was a commission for a good friend. See my previous vacuum tube creations HERE. And hey, want one of your own? They're for sale HERE.

[BONUS] 413. Skeletube V

I created a new Skeletube for the Think Small exhibition opening this week at Artspace in Richmond, VA. The show requires all work to be 3" x 3" (x3") or smaller and this hand-painted vacuum definitely fits that requirement.

See my previous Skeletube creations HERE and hey, if you want to own one, check out the Skeletube Store!

[CONTEST] Win A Skeletube from Noah Scalin

THIS CONTEST IS CLOSED! Thank you for participating.

Noah Scalin is of course the creator of Skull-A-Day. He's made hundreds of different skulls with various mediums over the years (366 in the 1st year of the project). Last year, Noah combined his love for skeletons and vacuum tubes, to create Skeletubes. He's painted so many of these little guys that he's made a Skeletube army. Since so many people love these fun creations, Noah is giving away one Skeletube to one lucky Skull-A-Day fan!

Occasionally these little guys like to get together and go on adventures. So far they've escaped to a mountain and had a snow day.

PRIZE INFO: One Model B bagged and tagged Skeletube. It is a hand painted skeleton vacuum tube that is packaged as shown.

[BONUS] Skeletube Snow Day

It's a snow day in the land of the Skeletubes, but it was too cold for me to document them for very long, so I have no idea what's going on here. Maybe you know? Add your caption suggestion as a comment below...

Want to have your own Skeletube adventures? You can get one HERE.

[BONUS] Escape to Skeletube Mountain

Recently I spent a few days in the mountains and three of my Skeletubes decided to come along as well. Here are a few pix I took of their forest explorations...

Want to have your own Skeletube adventures? You can get one in the new Skeletubes Store HERE.

Skeletubes!

My hand-painted reclaimed vacuum tubes are finally for sale online!



At the Skeletubes store you'll find several versions of the minimalist Skeletube Army in a nifty bag/tag package.



You'll also find the highly detailed one-of-a-kind brainac style tubes.



Be sure to check the store from time to time as I'll be adding new variations and packaging in 2013!

[BONUS] 405. Skeletube Army II

I'm continuing to experiment with painting vacuum tubes...

This time I created 20 larger size ones in special packaging for the upcoming Bizarre Market Holiday sale here in Richmond, VA. These will be available exclusively at the market November 23 – December 24 after which I will sell any remaining ones through the Skull-A-Day store.

Expect to see the next stage of this project sometime in 2013.
