Vinyl will kill - Actiontoys Buch
Neues Action Toys Buch von IdN. Ich habs auf der Pictoplasma Konferenz gesehen: Must-have! ;-) Kommt Ende November. Erhältlich bei Koppmedien.

Designer entdecken die Faszination von 3D-Puppen und -Figuren, neuerdings solche aus Vinyl gefertigt. ...und Sammler ebenso. IdN, die Kreativ-Schmiede aus HongKong, hat wieder den Finger am Puls der Szene und zeigt 3D-Vinyl-Figuren und den gesamten Produktionsprozeß vom ursprünglichen Konzept des Designer über das erste 3D-Muster zum (verkaufs-)fertigen Produkt.



Overview:
VINYL WILL KILL! is a book about the fascinating and growing genre of 3D Designer Toys, and the PROCESS from initial concept in the designer's head, through to how it finally makes it to the shelf, and to collectors around the world.

VINYL WILL KILL! is a transparent look at this often difficult and highly collectible medium, explored through a series of exclusive one-on-one interviews with some of the best 3D vinyl designers and producers on the planet.

VINYL WILL KILL! is a fascinating insider's look at the working processes of some of the most successful designers and artists in the world today: The ultimate backstage pass. A book for any professional designer, or anyone interested in how a great idea finally makes it to a finished product...and how much blood, sweat and pixels are spilled along the way.
