Thinking on producing these bad boys(different sizes and what not), what would you pay for something like this?

BADASS!
Jay: That reminds me a lot of how much I want a Harkonnen chair.
Is that resin, cast metal?

It's made from a whole bunch of stuff.
MDO board
metal rivets
posts
bondo
chain
kit skulls
These pics were taken when I moved, I cleaned it up and gave it a fresh coat of paint. The top is one piece and the legs bolt on. It's my day to day workstation, If you can see it now it's camouflaged in crap(papers, toys etc.)....I really need to clean out my office.

Whether it's your style or not, ya have to admit it's pretty well done! Jay, you should do movie sets or something - although it sounds like your current gig is pretty cool already. Hmmm... I wouldn't want one just like that, but kind of along those lines minus the skulls. How much would you be willing to deviate from the original design? I'd basically be looking at some different posts.
I love to draw and I do it all the time. Will have to post some pics but I'm trying to finish several first, and I'm so picky I do about 10 versions of all of 'em before I'm maybe satisfied. Pretty limited to graphite and basic pen and ink right now but want to experiment with other mediums. Usually fantasy art I guess you'd say - swordfights, people with weapons and armor... but what is increasingly interesting to me is working in 3 dimensions, which is why the desk is so interesting. Never had thought about trying to make myself a desk until now. I need a unique and interesting way to display my sword collection too... like two parallel posts that could mount to a wall. I like wolves - that would be a cool theme.
Someone mentioned gravestones. I saw the wildest one the other day out near the beach. I swear it is a granite wheel complete with a tread pattern and working spinner rim. I am not kidding. I'll get a pic for you all.

I'm working on putting together a desk for my new place thats going to be built mostly from all the spare boat parts I have laying around.
Should be interesting.

There's a whole series of fossil-looking knives out there that are quite similar. Not sure who makes 'em off the top of my head, but not either of those. One of them is a pretty cool sabertooth skull, with twin blades, obviously.
