Squink casting his own figures?Test pull photo from instagram
I'm sure most of you are familiar with customs from UK based artist Squink, everyone was clamouring over his ridiculous Time for an Adventure sculpt. If you scroll through his portfolio on Trampt you will see an amazing progression of whimsical, almost cutesy characters to his latest creations which are heavily sculpted and feel a bit darker overall. (definitely more my speed) This photo popped up on his instagram, and it looks like he's now making molds of his designs, which appear to be similar to some of his Dunny customs, but not sure what the final product will be. Definitely follow him on twitter at @squink for more updates.... [ read more ]

Update on our book 'Deconstructing Designer Toy'Potentially looking for new publisher to speed up release date
For those people unfamiliar with what I'm talking about, back in November I made a newspost calling for artists to participate in an upcoming book we wanted to produce titled 'Deconstructing Designer Toys'. In this book, toy customizers would submit some of their work, and then as part of the submission they would describe the process for one of their pieces ... triumphs, difficulties, etc. Hopefully, making this a bit more than a typical toys/portfolio book with pretty pictures. We put the book together in about 6-7 weeks from start to finish, in order to hit a July 2012/SDCC release date. Well, it looks like our release date is around early 2013 so we're trying to explore our options.... [ read more ]
