Hand-carved Tiki Buzz – Buzz Lightyear #266
I carved this from a chunk of basswood a few years back. I made it based off of this Tiki Mug that was given to folks who worked on Toy Story. The mugs sell for $3000 plus online so I knew I’d never have one… so I made one myself!
Here’s the original Tiki Mug I based my carving on. Continue reading
Buzz Lightyear Chalk Drawing #265
This is a drawing I did on a boy’s bedroom wall using sidewalk chalk. Fun! Continue reading
Buzz Lightyear Easter Basket #264
The other day I found a strange little square shaped easter basket for a dollar at Target. I immediately saw the potential to turn it into a Buzz Lightyear Easter basket.
Buzz Lightyear #263 – Arm Cast Painting
Even this Buzz is just a bit of the hand and forearm, I’m still counting it. My daughter broke her arm a month ago and got her short-cast today. She let me draw on it. Then she let me paint on it! I used acrylic paint and sealed it with spray gloss. You should have seen us in the dark on the backporch, me spraying my daughter’s arm with clear coat. One of our neighbors walked up the steps while we were out there. I can’t imagine what he must have thought.
While working on this I got an idea for a possible project in two parts. First, become a cast painter. People would pay me to paint their kid’s cast! Second, to go to the local children’s hospital and offer my services for free in special cases as deemed by the hospital. We’ll see if I actually follow through with this idea. Doubtful, but fun to think about.
Next time she breaks her arm I’m going to make her get a white cast.
Buzz Lightyear #263 – The Claw Clock
I’ve been wanting to make a Buzz Lightyear clock for years. I bought the wood and clock movement 3+ years ago and just never got to it. Finally the stars aligned and I pulled out the materials and got to work. My original plan for years was to mimic the swinging leg type of clock like the Elvis clock I had back in the day.

Buzz Lightyear #262 – Buzz Lightyear Nutcracker
I never planned on making a Buzz Lightyear Nutcracker Doll. I was in Hobby Lobby, a local craft store, and saw some wooden Nutcracker blanks and thought, I wonder if I can paint that to look like a Buzz Lightyear? I took some pictures and decided to figure that out when I got home. Continue reading
Buzz 261 – Battered Buzz Lightyear
I drew this the other night with my finger and my iPad while suffering a depressive episode. I wasn’t drawing him to look like I felt… but the scribble style, yes, that’s how I felt.
I talk about this piece in my podcast Made My Day: EP 23 – This Thing I Do.
