Description do you love Tokidoki? I do!


but .. since these toys are really expensive (at least in italy) i decided to make one of these dangerously cute monsters by myself. woo^^

as you can see in the pictures it's super-tiny (about 2cm -or 0.7874 inch- tall)

ok, here's the tutorial .. i want to add a few lines for the ones who want to try, though. First: i think it's probably better if you take your time to take a look at an actual picture of Tokidoki, before you start working .. carefully paying attention to the details and so on. It will help you to keep in mind the very shape of your object and to avoid mistakes. I personally got inspiration from the pictures of these two deviantArtists: [link] , and [link] .. i think they are cool! But of course you can choose the shape / colours you prefer .. just take a look around
Secondly: have fun

PLEASE READ:
if you want to post my tutorials outside deviantArt, just drop me a note asking for my permission. I'm going to allow you to do that, yes, but I'd like to know where my works are going to land
If you have any question please let me know .. and .. I'd be glad to see your creation if you've found my tutorials helpful


TRADUCO IN ITALIANO, VISTO CHE EVIDENTEMENTE GLI ITALIANI NON SANNO L'INGLESE
gradirei, qualora vogliate postare i miei tutorial su un blog/forum/community/qualcosa, che me lo facciate sapere. Non ci vuole nulla a lasciarmi una nota da qualche parte. Ovvio che vi darei il permesso, ma ci tengo a sapere dove i miei lavori vanno a finire. E' l'unica cosa che chiedo, e visto che metto a disposizione una risorsa, vorrei che fosse rispettata.
Grazie!

hehe grazie! si a farli in fimo ci avevo pensato ma poi venivano in rilievo, e se guardi il tokidoki originale Γ¨ piuttosto piatta come figura
