Ohhhhhhhhh really good guess!! But not quite...... as an additional hint for today I will say you are getting warmer

Today's hint (and probably the "dead give away" hint you've been waiting for...) The origins of this practice are believed to be rooted in china but many many moons later became militarized in Japan which reflects its more common and modern day incarnations practiced  stateside.

And for today's post we have "The Professor"!!

[Bytor]

NINJA! martial arts expert :)

[kyuusei]

Geisha. ;)

stay at home mom

[Wild Armor]

Martial Arts Master.

So, you can chop a bullet?

[Klyde Chroma]

NINJA! martial arts expert :)

And Bytor wins!!! Though the career was "Martial Arts Instructor/ Chinese Kickboxer (lei tai fighting)" and not quite "expert"... close enough....

Yes, for 7 years I trained in Pai Lum Tao Gung Fu, Bok Leen Pai Kenpo, Pai Yung Tai Chi and spent 2 years studying some Wing Chun (loosely) and doing full contact chinese kickboxing.... The last 2 years were also spent teaching my primary curriculums which was a practice I fell in love with.... however I developed a horrible thing called an "ego" that got the better of me and starting making some poor decisions in life which eventually led to the undoing of this opportunity for me.... you live you learn I suppose.....

Well congrats bytor! I am in the process of crafting more pieces now, as typically they are all made on an order by order basis at this point because I cannot keep up with the demand.... So be patient with me and as soon as your piece is crafted, I will let you know and ship within 24-48 hours. You pay nothing, I take shipping on the chin so to speak :)

Wild Armor, I'm sorry bytor beat you to the punch.... But fret not my friend, a new contest will begin within a few days! Stay tuned!

Very Nice, last thing I won was a chalupa from taco Bell many moons ago, lol

Sorry I haven't updated the thread recently guys.... been working like a demon... but I just wanted to quickly say fret not... more creepy-clockwork-creations are on the way!

In fact, I have recently been approached to be featured at a steam-punk ball by way of my art, so you can expect to see quite a bit soon! And as promised, another contest! So keep your ray guns in their holsters and your goggles on hand and stay tuned!

Got mine in the mail a few days ago, seriously neat looking creature, mucho thanks Klyde

WELCOME TO THE REVIVAL OF KLYDE's STEAMPUNK AND CLOCKPUNK THREAD!!! Mwaaaahahahaha!

I, Klyde Chroma, welcome you....... and apologize for slacking off and never running more contests or continuing to update this.... But I'm trying to make amends here......

I'm gonna cut right to the chase here.... The good stuff... the NEW stuff... the for sale stuff  :)

These are all part of a new series I am doing called "The Taste of Time Collection".... why you ask?.... simple... They all feature real human teeth.



Here we have Vamp-Tockula! Just in time for halloween! And here is e-bay auction if anyone is interested... http://www.ebay.com/itm/321012925449?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649



Next, Count-Tickula!.... Human eye teeth just make great fangs... expect a few more vampire-esque creations in the future.... and the ebay auction.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Steampunk-sculpture-with-REAL-HUMAN-TEETH-handmade-Direct-from-artist-/321013439587?pt=Art_Sculpture&hash=item4abde45c63



Last, but certainly not least, Molar the Tank!... and the ebay auction.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Handmade-Steampunk-Sculpture-with-REAL-human-teeth-Direct-from-Artist-/321013101562?pt=Art_Sculpture&hash=item4abddf33fa

NOTE ABOUT EBAY AUCTIONS: I really doubt these are gonna sell on e-bay only because they are my first auctions.... as such however they are discounted a bit.... if you have your eye on one and can't afford it ATM don't fret... that which doesn't sell will either be relisted or thrown on etsy.

NOTE ABOUT CONTESTS: I do intend on doing more contests in the future but right now the schedule is a bit tight......

LAST NOTE....... I hope it was appropriate to revive this thread rather than start a new one.... if it was improper forum conduct I am sorry.... please don't hollar at me... I am very sensitive....

EDIT: I screwed up when I sized these images.... they were supposed to be a bit smaller than this specifically for the forum... If this is a problem let me know and I'll resize them.
