One of them was doing some multilayered effects lik… Continue

Mobile Agency mascot: Mobi

Recently I was asked to design a papercharacter for a new company called Mobile Agency. Initially it was meant to serve as the logo but we decided it would be better just to serve as a mascot. So in the end a variation on the eyes of the model was actually used for the logo.

If you want to download the M… Continue

New website, new blog!

On the new site I will slowly shift the focus a bit more from my free toys to my professional work and other projects I participate in.

I am a Dutch paper engineer, based in Arnhem, and my work mainly focuses on the creation of papertoys. I either create completely new characters from scratch or I transform existing characters into papermodels. My speciality is one-piece papertoys, models that consist of a single flat piece of paper, which by intricate folding is transformed into a 3-dimensional model. I also create more complex templates consisting of several parts that are glued together to construct the final model. I've have done commissioned work for the toy industry, for promotional purposes and for books and magazines. Growing up in the seventies and eighties, my personal work is heavily inspired by retro design, videogames, movies, bright plastic toys and TV cartoons. Most of this work can be downloaded for free from my site. So get your knives and glue out, download some of the models and start building. Enjoy!
