Patrick Wong "Miko the Crusher" Custom Ghost Girl

by
Latest custom from Patrick Wong...


Miko the Crusher is the latest customized vinyl figure by Patrick Wong based from MPHLabs' 6" Ghost Girl. The figure is painted both inside and out with black holes for the eyes against a white wall of a face.

She is an immortal being that is at odds with another abstract machine  known as "Prober". With each consuming the souls of other characters within the world through their eyes. She is the crusher of all characters and all other signs producing a population of spectators or what could be known as slaves. - Patrick Wong

The Demon Fett by Josh Mayhem

by
 Awesome custom...


Josh Mayhem presents The Demon Fett - A custom Boba Fett Lego Clock / Lego Hero Factory mash-up for the Designing Outside The Lines custom group show at 1AM Gallery in SF. Made out of 100% Lego Toys believe it or not (yes, even the cape). It stands 12" tall from the bottom to the tip of the horns and the cape is adjustable. 

Originally I was planning to do what I normally do and find a sweet Gundam kit to mash the Lego Man with. As I was shopping for said Lego Man I came across the Lego Hero Factory toy line. I thought it would be cool idea to use only Lego toys for a custom Lego show. Upon opening the Hero Factory package and analyzing the instruction book I realized that it looked all too familiar and that's when it dawned on me that Lego Hero Factory toys where in essence the Lego version of a Gundam Wing kit (albeit far more simple). So it all kinda worked out.  

This was a fun project because Lego's were one of my favorite toys as a kid. To see what they've evolved into lately is incredible. Lego's are way cooler now then they were back in the day (and they were already pretty cool back then). What I like most about this piece is that it is a designer toy made out of toys that have nothing to do with the designer toy scene. Everything you see here was found at a Target. 

Designing Outside The Lines opens April 26th from 6:30pm-9:30pm at 1AM Gallery in San Francisco CA. To be part of the preview, contact maya (at) 1AMSF (dot) com. - Josh Mayhem
