here is the first of the paperboxworld dinos; morris
get him on the dedicated page for this new paperboxworld family
designing this toy was a very different process than all the previous paper toys on the site. it's the first papertoy i've made starting from a character design, and not starting from a shape. it turned out to be quite challenging, but fun.
i hope you have as much fun building morris as i had with designing him.

I came accross a blog of someone who accidentally killed the paperboxworld cat.
But, before everyone starts boo-ing; apparently she likes it so much she still managed to make something out of that crumpled mess. 
I say: RESPECT.

i made these clocks for two little boys who will celebrate their 4th birthday in a couple of days. they are made from 'colour your own clock' kits on which i spray mounted my own design.
i personalized them with their names, and a big 4 to mark the occasion.
i hope they will like them

My holiday has just started, and during the first quiet sunny afternoon, i made one of the dinosaurs i mentioned some time ago in fimo (a brand of polymer clay, i believe another one is called sculpey). i like the bright and even colours of the stuff. all in all it turned out OK.

A preview of the paper toy i'm currently working on, i still need to set some technical details straight. But the basic shape of the model is ready.
Then I can get started on the drawing for the building instruction, which (hopefully) will not be too much work for this toy.

The subject for this month's Computer Arts Projects is character design. There is an article about paper toys in it, that features quite a few of the designers you can find on nice paper toys
Some time ago they asked me if they could use some of my toys to put on the CD. I must say that i was surprised that such a respected graphic design magazine would be interested in me.
Now i have a copy of the August issue of the magazine and I'm pleased to say that 14 (fourteen!) of my paper toys are featured on the CD that goes with it.
How cool is that?

My oldest son (3) is crazy about dinosaurs, i had already made a paper toy dinosaur for the site, but he doesn't really like it.
So now i made these characters, and he likes them a lot. He even knows the scientific names of these animals, whereas i don't have a clue (he is teaching me the names, but i'm a slow learner).
I'm very enthousiatic about these guys, and foresee a great future for them on paperboxworld, although I'm not really sure at the moment in what form.
These guys don't have names yet, perhaps you can help me, if you have good names for them, let me know, or use the comments.

 
 

I just reorganized the site. I joined all the boxes on one page, and the other, unconnected toys on another, it seems to make more sense. It's also to make space for things to come. I'm working on several new ideas at the moment, so stay tuned.

Let me know what you think, or if anything on the site doesn't work, your feedback is important.
