![]() Howdy and Welcome! My name is Brad Gorby , and once upon a time I was an artist ; drawing , painting , sculpting , and animating . 24 hours a day and 7 days a week . Those days are gone forever , forced into early retirement due to the fact that the kind of art I liked doing couldn't cover the expenses of everyday life . I work now as a retailer of spirits : beer , wine and hard liquor which more than enables me to pursue the enthusiasms of my life , though not allowing me the luxury of time that I once enjoyed as a professional artist . Alas , all things come with a price . This website , Geeb-O-Rama , is my online gallery of enthusiasms , those esoteric bits of amusement and entertainment that I indulge in to maintain my sanity through the course of daily existence . Here you will find my art continuing , though in a different form than that which I once pursued . This is the ART I do for the sake of creative pursuits alone , and the mediums I indulge in for sheer joy . Geeb-O-Rama showcases my favorite movies and my favorite toys , as well as my current creative endeavors which in addition to computer generated imagery also includes custom action figures and sculpting featuring Takara Toys' Cool Girls ( Cy Girls here in the U. S . ) and Micromen and Shocker Toys' customizable action figures Shockinis . You'll even find Stikfas here as well , though at this time I'm a rather new convert to Stikfas . ![]() I fell in love with Takara Toys' " Cool Girl " line of super articulated action figures when I discovered them two years ago, and since that time have devoted a great deal of effort at collecting them as well as similar 12 inch action girls figures . My collection currently stands at just over 50 , and with the exception of the Ultraman Tribute figures of Akiko Fuji and Annu Yuri , I have kitbashed and customized most . The CG Luv Site is not devoted solely to Takara's groundbreaking line of action girls , but since they were the first and most influential for my reentry to the 1:6 scale hobby , I felt that in christening this section of Geeb-O-Rama their impact should be tantamount . I will be featuring my collection here along with posting featurettes on the work involved with my customs and kitbashes . Having built my professional art career as a " Good Girl " artist , most of the figures you'll see here will be my continuation of that preoccupation , though on occasion , a male figure will pop up , afterall there are some truly superb male action figures out there as well .Click Here to KwiKJump to the Cool Girl Luv Site ![]() Having spent most of my life sculpting and most of my artistic career producing miniature prototypes , I've learned a great deal about producing customized and original one-of-a-kind models . Here at Geeb-O-Rama I will be posting " How-To " articles along with accompanying pictures so that you too may learn and produce your own custom work , or perhaps just get some ideas for your own endeavors that you might not have tried yet . In the realm of custom figure modelling you can never know or learn too much . Click Here to KwikJump to Geeb's How To Site ![]() I like movies , with a special fondness for low-budget " B " movies , as well as animation . Geeb-O-Rama's Movie Madness section as well as " Matinee at the Bijou " I will share some of my all time favorite films , Tee Vee shows and actors and actresses . A word of warning : You WILL NOT find films like " Fried Green Tomatoes " or " Bridges of Madison County " at Geeb-O-Rama , you'll find films like " Liquid Sky " , " Forbidden Zone " and "Nightveil : Witch War " , as well as cinema classics like " Rear Window " , Seven Samurai " and " The Raven " . I won't leave out some of my favorite TV shows either , such as " Combat " , " Melrose Place " or " Millennium " either . Click Here to KwikJump to Movie Madness! ![]() There you have it , a brief overview of the contents to be found here at Geeb-O-Rama , certainly not the complete overview , but those sections that make up the primary focus and features . I hope you enjoy your time here , and hopefully will be inspired to make repeat visits ; this site is very active and gets continual updates and additions so there will most likely always be something new to see . I'm very big on graphics and imagery , and I break every rule concerning internet protocols on file size , though I do try to keep the images formatted so that they load fairly quickly with broadband ; dial-up users beware !!! And remember . . . Starving Artists Never Die ! All my Best ; C.
