BLIND BOX TOY

2 week project

This turbo was to create a small toy that could be used as part of a mystery blind box toy series. I used my own original idea of 'Rock stars' as a theme, and subsequently made my own 'Shell-ton John' prototype. I ended up rushing it quite a bit in the 2 week timeframe, so I could improve on the paint job, and the feather ruff didn't fit very well so I should redo this in time, but I feel the sculpted arms and sliding mechanism (a lever at the back makes his head pop up and down) were a success. I used Rhino 6 to digitally model the body, which was then 3D printed. The head was sculpted in Zbrush and 3D printed. The rest was made traditionally using various gluing, filling, sanding and sculpting techniques. Please click on the image to view it full-size.
