Kevin Smith...and thats all I have to say

Floored. Amazed. Excited. Speechless...err..Silent. Those are just a few of the feelings we had when we were commissioned to do custom "Clerks" themed Wii for Kevin Smith's Christmas Gift!! From what we understand Silent Bob is an avid gamer and this would be his first Wii - No pressure :).

The Wii was painted using flat gray scale colors to match the black and white clerks characters. The stand features the main characters each back-lit with two "stage lights" that beam up to highlight the custom 3D Clerks logo. The opposite side has a specially back-lit logo of his production company. Finally, the controllers were painstakingly hand painted letter by letter to feature his name one controller and his most famous alter ego on the second. As a most respectful nod to his writing, the font was meant to look like one an old typewriter might use.

All and all it was about 60 hours of very exciting work. It was a crazy experience to get the chance to create something for such and established and successful artist and one we will not soon forget. We're often humbled by some the opportunities we get around here but perhaps none so much as this one.

We were just informed that he and the family love it and that's a Christmas gift for us all on its own.

Modding like a Rockstar

It's been one crazy year for Morpheon Mods, but this has to be one of the biggest highlights for sure! I wanted to share with you a very special project we have been working on behind-the scenes for the great guys at Rockstar Games. Basically, they contacted us after seeing the our work online and wanted to know if we could collaborate on a Wii themed after the company itself. We've always been fans of the GTA series and one of my all time personal favorites is the noir series Max Payne so answer for us was an enthusiastic yet humble "hell yeah!"

The company just received it today and the early reports are they are really happy with it and we couldn't be more happy about that :).

The Wii itself features our new car like clear coating, a completely laser cut and hand polished Rockstar emblem, custom color matched paint, color matched controls and numerous LED mods that were, of course, calibrated to not be bright nor too dim ;).

It was an honor to have the opportunity to work with Rockstar and we hope it wont be the last. Enjoy the pictures!
