Website Redesign
Hello, hello! I hope everyone is doing well. It's been so long since my last update, so long that my previous website doesn't even work on the new server anymore. So, here is the new look! It took me a while to come up with a logo design that I'm happy with. If you have been to my site before, you know I've always had an interactive logo. I like something fun and playful for my logo. During the redesign process, I scrapped a few static designs that weren't impressive, and my bear also evolved...
Custom Negora @ QPop
It's been awhile...again! Always great to be able to work on anything toy, and glad to be back at Qpop for another custom Negora(thanks Chris & Miki). Okina Negora is a little evolution of my last Negora, this custom design is growing on me, dropped a few toy design based on this custom, maybe we'll even see a new figure inspired by this project?! Anyways, it'll be part of the Konatsuya Exhibition opens on Friday March 16. ;) Exhibition goes from March 16th - April 1st 2018 Show Opening :...
Some New Phone Cases…
Since my first release of iPhone 5/5S/SE cases with COOP, I've got requests for Samsung phones and newer iPhone cases, so here they are, an updated line up of new phone cases for all your iPhone and Galaxy phones! Each design comes in 2 options, slim & tough. The slim case is a hard, one piece plastic shell that snaps right onto your phone. While it’s ultra slim at 2mm thick, it still offers protection. And the tough case is made up of two pieces for extra protection (a 2mm plastic outer...
Making of Aloha Lolligag Custom Toy
I was recently asked to do a custom Lolligag for an upcoming show at Qpop gallery(details at the end), thank you Lolligag & QPop for having me! It was fun to experiment some new stuff and the whole process went super fast, it almost felt like I'm familiar with this character or something, I guess it has some similarity to my earlier drawing style. So the process goes like this... Here comes the suspicious parcel... Material shopping was done before I even received the blank, I knew exactly...

Valentines Series JB
JB is back for Valentine's day, this is the first colorway(s) release since the original JB from 2010. Initial plan was to paint them all the same like most releases would do, but the process of painting JB is pretty time consuming, it makes me felt like a toy factory worker, so I decided to make this series a bit more exclusive(....and fun for me). Took this opportunity to explore some new color combinations, and the result are 5 one-off(s) with a not so one-off price tag. These JB will be...
