About me:

The Shiflett Brothers are living their dream. Their professional sculpting careers began in the early '90s with their maquette work on the hit video game "Oddworld: Abe's Odysee." For Glenn Danzig's Verotik comics The Brothers sculpted the Jaguar God, Satanika, and Dalkiel resin kits. Soon followed by their work on Draco the Dragonheart and David Mack's Kabuki coldcast porcelain statues for Moore Creations. Working with Bowen Designs Brandon and Jarrod sculpted the full size Incredible Hulk coldcast porcelain statue, the Venom v. Spiderman statue, as well as co-sculpting with Randy Bowen the Thanos, Juggernaut, Vision, Rhino, and Matt Wagner's Grendel Prime statues. They also worked on BD's Wolverine, Sabretooth, and Black Panther mini-busts. They were honored to co-sculpt, with Alex Ross, the Earth X Captain America for Dynamic Forces. Spectrums 5, 6, 14, & 15 featured pieces by the Shiflett Brothers, collecting the years best fantasy art. One of those years they won the Spectrum Silver Dimensional Award. Their work has been featured in ToyFare, Wizard, and Amazing Figure Modeler Magazine among others. They are, of course, most geeked up about their original designs and sculptures which so far include "Ol'Scratch", "Principia and the Serpent", and "Chloe: Aviator For Hire" and "Noynub in: Deal with the Devil". The Brothers' original concept pieces "Ol' Scrach" and "Noynub" have also recently been produced as limited edition bronze runs. Nine out of every ten sculpts The Brothers start remain unfinished and in various stages of horrible incomplete-ness. Hundreds of these pieces occupy shelves, closets, and cupboards around their homes. Others are smashed or thrown through walls in childish fits of frustation. It is now common knowledge that the older brother, Brandon, is a way better sculptor than his younger sibling Jarrod. Just ask anyone. Everybody knows.
