here are some photos of our custom Qee for the upcoming “We Ain’t Plastic” show at the Public – opening on October 2nd. Instead of simply creating a design on the surface of the toy, or adding modeling clay to create new parts, we custom made a little zipper hoody. This was our first time sewing a tiny hoody, so it’s a little sketchy, but it works. We also decided to use both sides of the head for eyeskull and ms.eyeskull. We think it works pretty well.

eyeskull front and back, staged with mini-stickers, and ms.eyeskull side of the head. Yes those mini-stickers are real, printed out at a half an inch square. Cut out 320 of those suckers. Here is a photo showing the mini-stickers in relation to a regular 2.75 inch square sticker:

so what do you think?

this is a quick tutorial on how to turn a regular, off-the-shelf sketchbook into an intense idea collection device, quickly and easily! What we’re going to do is show you how eyeskull prepares a sketchbook for a life of abuse. We’ll show you how to create pockets, prep the spine, and add the ever important decorative elements. You really only need 2 supplies: a notebook and some tape.

PIMP MY SKETCHBOOK is totally happening here.
