CHANG DA PUNK

barratatouille-ChangI had to find other ideas … very quickly, I turned to the skate world, through my friend Christophe with whom I was graffiti for many years and which for me is a true reference in this environment because Is simply his life. So I had fun making this little character: Chang.

As in all my achievements, I try to make a composition by adding one or more elements without overloading the scene, just a small element to balance the whole. In this case, no head cut;) but a simple bar attached to the base gray bitumen to make a good old Frontside lipslide …

I also wanted to give him a little punk side, a few pics of black color is enough to give him that look (with a work on the pants prince of galls that goes well and a little wink to the brand Vans that l ‘No longer presented in white letters on a black tee-shirt). As you can see, Chang is just standing on his skate more precisely a fingerboard for the novices, it is a miniature wooden or plastic skate (which is also customized with the creation date of Vans (1966) realized With my cutting plotter). With the retreat, I could also put a chain on the side of the pocket …

Like all my figurines, I will find one day a little an evolution (look, playset …) to be continued

PS: for the record, the Fingerboards were first made in the 1970s as keychains for skate enthusiasts. Subsequently, they were made in much better quality and with more resistant trays. People then realized that these small boards can be used to simulate the figures they would make on their skateboards.

CLUTTER MAGAZINE

barratatouille-Clutter-Magazine

That year, I was not at the end of my surprises. When I was interested in the middle of the toy, I documented myself via the web of course but also with the specialized press. This is where I came across Clutter Magazine … A really cool and cool magazine to watch.

For each issue, a different format, a highlight of the universe of a toys creator, the discovery of talented artists, information on sites and stores dedicated to this world that fascinated me more and more.

In 2012, the magazine organized for the second time an international contest on toys via its dedicated site designertoyawards. That year, it had selected the 100 best international figures … to my surprise Candy my little rabbit had been selected among the best specialists in discipline ! Of course, I had no chance of winning against these GIANTS.

(But I had a great visibility of my work … I explain, as my pseudo is Barratatouille and since the site had put the figurines in alphabetical order of their creators, I found myself on the front line! Miss :) just next to 64colors a big artists. As expected, I did not win but it encouraged me to continue in this direction.

SPANKYSTOKES (part II)

barratatouille-SpankyStokes

At the end of my second realization, I had fun to do a little research of my pseudo in Google. When, I typed Barratatouille in pictures … There in the middle of the pictures of the famous dish Marseille! I see my Candy figurine associated with John’s blog. I had the wonderful surprise of seeing that he had made a complimentary article on it but that he had not told me anything about it.

In the wake, I thanked him and I sent him the picture of my second realization Lili Rose that I had just finished. What gave another article on his blog just as friendly.

Since that time, I send my achievements (when time permits) to feed his blog (on my small scale) and show my latest creations!
