3 looks, one statuette - RELIC OF A JUPITER TOMB by Skinner
Switch-outs are often part of statue design and engineering. As passionate statue collectors ourselves, we do appreciate cool switch-outs, particularly when they add value to the overall piece. We don’t think every statue “needs” to have switch-outs, but when it makes sense, it can be awesome!
For Skinner’s Relic of a Jupiter tomb, we innovated a little bit in this regard…
Instead of having conventional switch-outs, we decided, along with Skinner, to have a 2-sided removable helmet, where the helmet could be flipped to present a different design on each side: Synthetic god & Biomorphic deity.
The helmet can also be removed and displayed next to the statuette, revealing the unmasked Relic in the process; the grinning skull!
We hope you guys will appreciate the ingenuity and the displayable nature of your Relic of a Jupiter tomb statuette.
This new release will not disappoint Skinner fans and House of Gog collectors!
And remember to tighten the latches of your space helmets, fellow space dwellers…

*fair estimations
Description:
-100% high quality polystone resin art statuette
-Hand crafted & hand-painted by master statue craftsmen
-Limited numbered edition: 300 units (worldwide)
-Signed by hand by Skinner (artist)
-Price: 325$USD
-Flexible payment plans available
-Worldwide shipping
Features:
-1 x Relic of a Jupiter tomb statuette
-1 x removable & displayable “two-faced” helmet: synthetic god & biomorphic deity
-Small high quality art print hand-signed by Skinner (9.5 x 7 inches)
-"Soft touch" collector art box
-Certificate of authenticity signed by House of Gog founders
Based of the original artwork of horror-fantasy Oakland legend and artist Skinner
This is an official collaboration with Skinner
Details:
To stay loyal to Skinner’s art style, each statue is “freehand” hand-painted (with brush) and airbrushed by artists, making each individual piece unique in its own way. Small variations are expected, adding to the “hand-made” nature of this high-craftsmanship collectible.
Remember that you are zoomed into a small 9 inches tall hand-painted statuette so any imperfections might be visible, but will be almost invisible in person!
The low edition size, intricate and “freehand” paint work contribute to the high production value of this art statue.
We believe that this new release is the right combination between a classic collectible, an art toy and museum-like art piece, elevating this original art statuette from a mere collectible to a true work of art.

RELIC OF A JUPITER TOMB - original artwork by Skinner
Reference artworks for our upcoming small scale statuette [also at a friendly price point!]
Statuette reveal is set for this Friday, Nov. 25th at 3pm ET/9pm Italy time, on our social media and newsletter.
3 in 1
The synthetic god
The biomorphic deity
The grinning skull (without helmet)
☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°
One of the most exciting and inspiring moments for us is the selection of the artwork from which our statues are inspired from. Our level of excitement never fades.
We hope you share this excitement today.
The challenge comes next; the capture and transposition of the style, the emotion and the vibe of the original art into a physical object. It’s never easy but extremely rewarding. The result is always a surprise to us, but also to the artist, and of course, to you, fellow collectors and art lovers!
These previously unreleased artworks by Skinner will be for our very first small scale - lower price point - statuette, which we hope will be the first of many.
Adding this new product type to the House of Gog is both to allow for different budgets to be able to own high-craftsmanship HOG art pieces but also for those with limited space to host new collectibles.
This art piece will be perfect for your working desktop or for a cozy niche on your shelves.
See you all this Friday for the statuette reveal! Pre-orders to follow afterwards very shortly.

Oakland-based artist Skinner is recognized for his vivid, psychedelic and otherworldly art - an agile mix of horror, humor, sci-fi and fantasy. His highly detailed line work, skillful blend of color and composition, make his art amongst the coolest, raddest and most immersive ever.
From the intricate patterns and flamboyance of french sci-fi pioneer Philippe Druillet to the dynamism and energy of the legendary Jack Kirby, the benign influence of the retro masters of the genre is also expressed throughout his work.
As fans of @theartofskinner, we feel honored and privileged to bring his amazing art into the realm of high-quality collectible statues once again, with this official collaboration.

GORAXX PRODUCTION UPDATE - SHIPPING Q1 2023
What’s up everyone,
Goraxx and his army of nightmare children are upon us!
Here are the first [ongoing] production photos for Goraxx, the monster maker from the original art of horror and fantasy Oakland-based artist, Skinner.
This is an official collaboration with the artist.
Production is well on the way and we are confident to be able to have Goraxx ready to ship Q1 2023 or prior! This means that if all goes well, your pre-orders should ship before Chinese New Year, during the month of January or February 2023 at the latest, so the wait is almost over *heavy breathing*
A friendly reminder to the new collectors out there, that in the toy and statue industry, in many cases, collectors can wait up to 2-3 years before their collectible is ready to ship from pre-ordering, so we are very happy to be able to keep this waiting time to around 6 months, which is a feat on its own (FYI pre-orders open less than 4 months ago).
Our production team is doing incredible work considering the busy production pipeline and how complex Goraxx is to produce (sculpt, “free hand” paint application, etc.)
At this stage, paint has been done on a large chunk of the pieces but there is a lot of paint work yet to be done. Next steps alongside paint, assembly and the first round of quality control will be the production of our deluxe “soft-touch” art boxes, foams, pedestal plate and the shipper boxes.
That being said, we are on track with Q1 2023 shipping for Goraxx (￣^￣)ゞ
Remember, it's our team, our production workshop and our passion; so it’s always hands-on and directly from the source!

Goraxx pre-orders are still open exclusively at houseofgog.com.

GORAXX PROTOTYPE UNBOXING by Skinner
The unboxing experience is always a very important moment for any collector. After having waited for their toy and or statue for months - in a lot of cases, even years - finally getting their collectible in-hand is the ultimate reward.
Luckily, House of Gog collectors do not wait years for their art piece, but it is rewarding the same!
From a statue maker and artist’s perspective, the experience is quite similar.
Although we are usually “fast”, making statues can take a long time (ex: 2-3 years, from original idea to shipping to collectors). So laying eyes on the final prototype for the first time is one of the most incredible experiences possible for us too and even more so, for the artist, seeing his or her work in a 3D physical form for the first time.
Here’s a peek into the depth of @theartofskinner’s lair, when Skinner received his Goraxx prototype in-hand earlier this year.
A delightful moment frozen in time.

GORAXX - ARTWORK VS ORIGINAL ART STATUE
As most of you know by now, House of Gog is specialized in bringing to life the rich universe of the world’s best and coolest artists by creating high-craftsmanship original art statues.
As such, this “alchemical transmutation” process from the original artwork to the art statue is at the center of everything we do.
The challenge is not only to bring to life the artwork but also to transfer its energy and emotion into the statue, making sure the final rendition is loyal to the reference artwork and worthy of the artist’s signature.
Skinner's 2D analog intricate line work, vivid and psychedelic color treatment, led us to new grounds and innovation with Goraxx.
We believe the final product is not only a great statue, but also a true Skinner art piece in every way.
//
GORAXX is available to preorder exclusively on our shop at houseofgog.com
Payment plans available (no mark ups)
Worldwide shipping with top tier rates
Limited numbered edition (150 units)
Each statue is hand-signed by Skinner
This is an official collaboration with the artist with royalties, so you also support the artist when buying House of Gog products.

GORAXX SCALE & SHELF FOOTPRINT
What’s up everyone,
Toy and statue collectors know the importance of shelf space pertaining to their ever-growing collection. In no time, your favorite Batman collection can spill into the bathroom, allowing for batarang choking hazards, even in this bastion of solitude!
The scale we selected as our main scale at House of Gog was well reflected upon before we settled on it. Not too big or too small, we like to think we chose the sweet spot that neither hurts nor tickles.
The art of Skinner
GORAXX, the monster maker
Original art statue
Dimensions: 16H x 13W x 17.5D (inches) | 41H x 33W x 44.5D (cm)
With 2 separate bases, Goraxx art statue’s depth is on the thicc side, but know that you can always display the giant, summoned from his lair, as a separate art piece, if you want.
You want Goraxx? You NEED Goraxx?

GORAXX, THE MONSTER MAKER
Original artwork by Skinner
(⇀‸↼‶)⊃━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ
Fellow collectors and art lovers,
Every original art statue we make starts with us connecting with a specific artwork from artists we love. This is where the vibe and the magic stems from first. Today, we share such an artwork with you guys, hoping you will experience a similar feeling of connection and wonder.
This is the reference artwork for our upcoming original statue release by Oakland-based horror and fantasy artist extraordinaire, the mighty SKINNER.
Skinner being a 2D artist, this new official collaboration enabled us to push ourselves even further into the transposition of original art into 3D physical format/high-end collectibles.
We had no idea how rad this statue was going to turn out. We hope you will share our astonishment!
We are looking forward to the full statue reveal set for next week, Thursday July 7th 2022 at 3pm ET.
Make sure to keep your eyes peeled and your lungs ready for hyperventilation.
See you all next week for the big day.
All love,

SKINNER UPDATE!
What’s up you beautiful ghouls and lich queens?
This is to let you guys know that our prototype for our next statue is almost completed!
The wait is almost over. We are happy to finally be able to commit to Q1 2022 for the reveal and the launch of the preorders of our first “The Art of Skinner” original art statue.
Skinner has approved the paint and we think we managed to make him speechless in the process.
(∩｀-´)⊃━☆ﾟ.*･｡ﾟ
Making these types of high-level collectibles is no easy feat. What you guys see as an end result went through a long pre-production process as well as a considerable investment in both “sweat & blood”.
From conceptualizing, to designing, to sculpting, to printing, to casting, to sand and polishing, to painting, etc. while having to deal with our workshop’s schedules and prior commitments; it always feels insurmountable, yet, here we are today.
Not only will this one, we hope, blow your mind, but as creators and artists ourselves, we also managed to push our limits even further with this new stepping stone, in the House of Gog story.
Thank you for being there for us, and brace yourself, the dreadful Conjuration is upon us…
All love,
Team House of Gog
