Oke, you want my opinion...
Well, it difficult to critique your work, because it's something that I also want to make... And we love the same stuff: sneakers.
Difficult, difficult, but here it is: I see the inspiration source in these two models: Michael Lau, but is this a bad thing? No, I love him to (got some of his vinyls).
You and Shin are the only papertoy designers (that I know of) that create simple "organic" shaped papertoys, with a hiphop flavour to it.
But only complements doesn't help you: you shouldn't repeat yourself, and experiment with different styles. Because I recognize the inspiration source (at least I think I did), you should be careful not to be to much inspired by others. Don't get me wrong: I love the models, but if I had to choose (and now I do) ....
These guys are unique!! Extremely cool, and totally Phil (btw if they are customizable: let me know! )
Thank you for your opinion. helps me know what you think.
some say that resemble a SHIN in style, but I very inspired to MICHAEL LAU. He is the king
I try to do some updates to my toys, from time to time. lately I'm working on other new toy with less round forms. I'm working on a more abstract concept of paper toy trying to keep my style. I try! :)
