The Houston, Texas artist known as
Kid Rico has been collecting Designer Toys for several years and, during that time, he's also explored customizing them. Above is the 4-inch Mini Foomi known as "Doc Fury" while below is a 4-inch Mini Raffy based on the classic stop motion animation "Rudolph." As a journeyman entry into the scene, these do reveal some of Kid Rico's inexperience; the color swaths are flat with no tonality or shading and the line work shows hesitation stops & starts. But everyone starts somewhere and these are actually most impressive for an early entry into the customizing gambit. If he continues to grow and learn, honing his craft, I can easily see Kid Rico being one to watch in the future! Both of these pieces will be released into
Kid Rico's online shop on Friday, January 18th, 2013 for the reasonable price $40 each.
