Inspiration behind photo: I was actually inspired by the feeling of jumping into my grandmother’s pool when I was little. I always loved the way the air bubbles flew around you and caught the light. I’d jump in with my eyes open over and over. There may have been something wrong with me. This figure in general is the perfect mix of modern and retro, there’s a lot of nostalgia to mine here. I love the Baron.

Inspiration behind photo: My inspiration came from the cover of the Baron Bends And The Aquaticons mini comic included with the purchase. As a photographer, I automatically fell in love with the cover so I wanted to bring that to life through my lens. The figure provided an array of accessories to to help capture this scenery. Something about water type characters that challenges my artistic creativity to design an aquatic environment, to make you feel as if you were swimming in the same ocean with Baron Bends and his Aquaticons. The backstory told in the comic really intrigued me to dive in deep (pun intended) with the character and it’s addition to the rest of the Rumble Society lore.
