The work of Jimbob-Wan: Bringing Back the Visual History (NSFW)!!!!!!!!

NSFW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FIRST OFF, THIS IS NOT MY WORK...I REPEAT THIS NOT MY WORK                

So, you just seen Jimbob-Wan above. I don't know how many of you are familiar with him. I used to follow him way back in the middle/late 2000s but seemed like he was becoming very distant towards being known. I should have e-mailed him and all that back then because now it seems like he is gone from the web...in fact it seems like all if not most of his work is too which is extremely pathetic   That is the purpose as to why I am making this topic as a record for the great 1/6 customizer known as Jimbob Wan! Like a lot of things, most of everybody goes with the new/current trends and forgets about the past thus making it all go into limbo, how great it was and what we once had...this really irks Me quite a bit to be honest

It was in My early days of wanting to make My own figures cause as much as I had and the variety of it all in many scales as a whole, I wanted more and something different so I had seen many people making their own kit-bashes & customs and I was like yeah, that's what I want! Looking for ideas by experts and so forth, the best one I had discovered was Jimbob. I thought his work was incredible. I loved that he had a made most of it from scratch and had an edge for women, busty babes and sci-fi & fantasy action! The thing is, he was phenomenal at it, in fact he is the best that I had seen at the time and I loved his creativity. I find it amazing that years later companies like Hot Toys & Phisen making seamless bodies where Jimbob made them years beforehand I must say that I really love his style and they look arguably even more realistic IMO. His number 1 babe was Gretchen Gazongas which the first time I saw her I flipped out and I was just in awe as I couldn't believe how hot she was   I was like wow, he loves how the women looked in the 90s which were the best IMO & My faves. I never knew who his inspiration was but I believe it had to Be Julia Strain (more on that later) which was an excellent choice!

And by the way, I sucked at being a sculptor and creator like that but I am happy with My kit-bashes however;)

So here she is: GRETCHEN GAZONGAS    



I will showcase in similar fashion like I do My own showcases

Holy WOW: The Magazine!




The Army Seductress!






The Snake Tamer: NSFW    

Fantasy P1: She went into the past and has some fellow warrior babes!







Fantasy P2: WHAT It's Heavy Meta meets Star Wars meets Metropolis



Accessories



Gretchen Gazongas/Julie Strain connection As I noted earlier, I believe Jimbob was a fan of Julie Strain and who could could blame him If you don't know who she is then look her up, I must warn you, she is very heated erotically so Viewer Discretion is Advised. I mean she was like the babe to go to for action, super salacious acts & poses and cosplay. So I don't know for sure but if you compare her there are a lot of similarities here  



So there it is! Does anybody remember this guy's awesome work I sure do and a good thing I saved his pics because if I didn't I am afraid his work would have been totally forgotten visually indefinitely by pathetic means.

If your reading this Jimbob, your number 1 fan has tried to bring your hot babes and extraordinary work back as best as I could

Jim Bob was a true master

Interesting thread.

I heard of Jimbob some years ago, talk of how great his customs were.
This is the first time I've seen this figure. I saw photos of a couple of others
that he did from collectors, but they were completely clothed.

Man, what a delay replying to this topic

JohnnyE4 - Yes he was indeed!

Daryl - Glad you heard of him and oh yes, he was a pioneer & precursor of today's customizers IMO. Yeah, I'm sure there is other great and wonderful work that he did but just got lost in limbo due to many things . Thanks Daryl
