one-of-a-kind art pieces by shultzo
Shultzo, the Israeli-artist who created the CompatiBalls [tagged / available @ ToyTokyo], has been quite busy creating new works and here are some samples of his new art figures. These are one-of-a-kind 3D sculptures - modeled on a computer and then 3D printed in plastic or metal, and finished with chrome plating or car paint. (Click images to embiggen) And personally speaking, they look amazing.

As a one of a kind art pieces they are quite expensive to buy (runs in the thousands of dollars) and you can contact Shultzo directly (email: info [at] shultzo.com) for inquiries. There are also plans to produce some of them in limited editions at lower prices. You are welcome to email Shultzo and let him know which one you would like to see produced. Do feel free to leave your choice in the comments section of this post too.

The part I like the most about designers
ReplyDeleteusing computers to design their toys is
that sometime in the future everyone will
own a 3-D printer and so all of us will have
every design available through online
sources. We just pay for the download to
our 3-D printer. No more limited runs! Yay!
Everyone would have the chance to get the
toys that they want. I guess some designers
could keep the actual diagrams/schematics
to themselves, but once someone bought
an actual toy it would be available to be
scanned and those schematics would
become available on the black market.
It would be the 3-D version of old Napster.
Imagine all the old toys (that cost so much
right now) that would become available to be
"printed" out in 3-D. We would be looking
forward to the new toys coming out and we
would be looking backward to the old toys
being newly scanned by fans.
This would not only open up the old toys
to everyone, but even no-name designers
could make their designs available just like
YouTube lets no-name actors/writers have
access to everyone.
The future looks awesome for us toy lovers!
