WHAT'S NEW

Artmymind's custom Dunnys for "Most Wanted" show at 1AM Gallery!

The samurai obsessed duo of Guillaume & Julia Lachambre, better known as Artmymind, have unveiled their three amazing custom Dunnys for the upcoming "Most Wanted: Behind The Hype" gallery show. While I don't have titles for each piece, let's examine the individually to properly do them justice.
An 8"-tall Dunny beautifully sculpted to resemble a dragon warrior. The finely crafted lizard scales covering the face, the toothy grin, those piercing eyes, and — of course — the horned ridges on the back of the head… all cohesively assemble into one outstanding piece. And the finely crafted robe and armor? Pure icing on an already mind-blowing cake.
It's a little hard to tell, but I think that's the kanji for 'fire' (⽕) on the forehead of this 8" Dunny's helmet; and based on the orange & yellow skin coloration, this seems potentially accurate. The helmet and jawline sculpts are fantastic, with those penetratingly large eyes accentuating the whole, and that brilliant looking spear-sword. But, to be honest, the robe on this one is what really what makes it for me: it looks so carefully constructed and truly pops with that under-robe hemline showing.
And finally, mixing some of the best elements from the previous two, is an insanely well-made 3" Dunny. Yes, you read that right, this is a 3" Dunny. Look at the sculpt work of scales on the forehead, the defined jawline, the wondeful eyes, the tiny hand-sewn robe, the custom mace… and did I mention this is a 3" piece?!? C'mon, it seriously looks like Artmymind created a shrink ray and just took it to one of the 8" customs…
