Profiles in Villainy 

Machine Head 

A cyborg of unknown origins, Machine Head is a ruthless gangster and criminal kingpin who runs numerous drug trafficking and protection rackets throughout Chicago.   He recruited the naive powerhouse known as Titan to steal for him a special microchip.  This microchip contained a powerful probability algorithm that Machine Head used to predict the future with great accuracy.  This prognosticatory ability enabled Machine Head to not only keep Titan under his thumb but further consolidate power and influence throughout the city.

Some time thereafter, Titan was aided by the young hero, Invincible, in a plan to take Machine Head down.  Unfortunately, the robotic gangster was able to predict the attack and was prepared, hiring Battle Beast and Magmaniac so to defeat the heroes’ plan.  

Although he succeeded in fending off Invincible, Machine Head’s actions garnered the attention of more well-equipped heroes.  Ultimately, the Global Defense Agency utilized a powerful electromagnetic pulse to fry the circuitry of the probability chip, thus disabling the gangster’s future-predicting powers.  He was quickly apprehended and incarcerated.  

Actor Jeffery Donavan provided the voice for Machine Head, with the villain first appearing in the fifth episode of the animated series Invincible, airing on April 9th, 2021

It's hard to get a sense of scale but this sculpture is 80cm wide!

Every bristle is selected and glued individually, often using elk, reindeer and dog hair. Her models take 3-6 months to finish. As a model maker and bug fanatic I can't get over the attention to detail and how well made the wings are??

Dragonfly requested by @stargod , and below I've added my personal favourite, her 10:1 May beetle model ❤️
