Sofia Bali Custom (Barong)

My first custom ever. As a big thanks to 3eyedbear for designing Voodoo Stubey custom, I decided to custom his Sofia paper toy with Balinese touch to it. Bali is definitely my super most extra favorite island so far.

Focusing on 'Barong', the king of the spirits and also representing the good side. Balinese like to tell share their culture through dances and performances, as for Barong usually the story is about the battle between the good and evil. Balinese also believe that besides the good and bad, there is also the 'not so good & not so bad' aspect in life. Thus represented with the gray color in the checkered flag like pattern.

It would be cool to see designers from around the world introduce their culture in a funky way.

Fatboy

Here goes me first post... Behold 'The Fatboy'! I have been keeping this little dude for quite sometime. My first paper toy design attempt that I did during my leisure time at the office a few years back (ah, history). Thanks to pepakura and 3dsmax, now I can focus more on the sketchbook while petting me rabbits rather than measuring strange cutout millimeter by millimeter...
