Cakes with Faces x Fans of Tea: Custom Lunartik Teas at ToyCon UK
Amy Crabtree of Cakes with Faces shares with TOYSREVIL her customed Lunartik mini teas for Fans of Tea series 4, which will be on display at ToyCon UK (April 25) this weekend - including a making-of video!
DESCRIPTION: "Cakes with Faces has made two custom Lunartik mini teas for Fans of Tea series 4, organized by Flatties. The teas are called Oc-tea-pus and Tea Tone (because puns are irresistible!). Cakes with Faces are based in Coventry in the UK, which is also the home of two tone ska music.
Watch the making-of the teas in their video, showing the whole process including sculpting the tentacles and other parts from Super Sculpey, painting, re-assembling and varnishing, sped up to three and a half minutes."
PRESS CONTINUED: "This is the second time Cakes with Faces has been part of Fans of Tea - their Buzzing Bumbletea was part of a previous series.
The teas will be on display on Lunartik's stand at ToyCon UK on Saturday 25th April. ToyCon is the UK's largest event featuring designer vinyl figures, with exhibitors including Tado, Jeremiah Ketner, Minty Fresh and Fugi.Me."
