Sushi Inu W.I.P – Part 1
hello! its been awhile, i've been busy with the family and preparing for some DCon releases, Sushi Inu is a completely new toy design based on one of my Sushi Kaiju drawing, and most challenging piece i've made so far(technically), anyways, this is how it was made... starting with sketch and foil skeleton... briefly warped up with super suclpey with some help from the back of a marker pen, i was able to press the holes in even size...or close enough, these are for the legs! shaped the seaweed...
