Shawn Smith Resketch Kickstarter
Tuesday, June 11th, 2013In case you have not yet heard about Shawn Smith’s Kickstarter for Resketch, I wanted to give it a mention on the blog. You’ll know Shawn best for his mustache and ninja character work with Shawnimals, and also his Pocket Pork Dumplings from mph labs (don’t forget to vote for those in the Designer Toy Awards!). Resketch is a sketchbook that is both eco-friendly and offers its user a artistic boost through creative prompts and different types of recycled, high-quality paper. Although the initial goal has been reached, there are still reach goals and new backer levels, including laser-engraved covers, featuring artwork from Art Baltazar, Andrew Bell, Chris Ryniak, Mig Reyes, and Shawn himself.
“It’s this non-linear way of drawing and sketching that will take your imagination to the next level.”

Battle Tails Teaser – Huck Gee
Friday, May 31st, 2013Battle Tails, a live action strategic defense game for Android and iOS that brings Huck Gee’s Gold Life character designs to life, has been funded via a Kickstarter campaign. I am a big fan of Huck Gee’s work and have been for awhile, so seeing his characters brought to life in a game is really exciting. It is always interesting to see toy designers bring characters to other platforms and mediums. Although this project has been funded, there are still stretch goals to be attained via Kickstarter. Check out the latest teaser of the game below!
And if you are feeling hungry for a taste of Huck’s work, grab his book “The Art of Huck Gee” or pick up his Post Apocalypse Dunny here.
