So making self-produced customized bootleg art figures and designer toys wasn\u2019t much of a stretch for me. Whether creating physical or performance based art, I maintain the goal to always create the highest quality of work with as little means necessary, wowing the audience with something they\u2019ve never heard or seen before.<\/p>\n<p>In toy making I remain true to my process by doing everything myself \u2013 handmade, hand painted, hand poured and designed using my own twisted commentary on the entertainment culture that shaped and inspired me growing up in the 80s and 90s, mixing multiple pop-culture references into my own abstract concepts. As I continue to develop my sculpting, molding, and casting skills further I rely heavily on my own artistic experience, techniques, and abilities\u2026 not so much on bootlegged parts from Star Wars or G.I.Joe toys, although that definitely adds to the fun as well!<\/p>\n<p>Looking toward the future, I have begun designing my own series of collectable designer art-toy figures based on original characters and storylines I\u2019ve developed and performed on stage at festivals, bars, galleries, and even street corners while traveling in a converted skoolie bus. Currently I have many prototypes in development and have had figures featured on \u201cToy Geeks- Behind The Counter\u201d (S2E07 published March 27th 2018).<\/p>\n<p>If you can\u2019t make it to NYCC please email dketoys@gmail.com to be placed on a waitlist for any leftovers after the show. <a title=\"IMG_1148\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/dketoys\/44599640641\/in\/album-72157700369708064\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1846\/44599640641_6466478322_z.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1148\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n==========================================================<br \/>\n<strong>Scarfield by Viktor&#8217;s Vintage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We have been collecting Viktor&#8217;s Vintage stuff for a while now and we finally convinced him to make something for us.<\/p>\n<p>Scarfield is $45 Hand cast and painted 3.75&#8243; scale carded figure Signed and numbered edition of 20<\/p>\n<p>Most of the time Viktor is the lead singer of The Retro Mutants in Iceland<\/p>\n<p>Card art by Justin R Olsen or Olsisaxart<\/p>\n<p>Instagram: @viktorsvintage<\/p>\n<p>If you can\u2019t make it to NYCC please email dketoys@gmail.com to be placed on a waitlist for any leftovers after the show. <a title=\"NYCC_scarfield\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/dketoys\/42835868620\/in\/album-72157700369708064\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1841\/42835868620_3e9721a5c5_z.jpg\" alt=\"NYCC_scarfield\" width=\"599\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><a title=\"lg_scarfield\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/dketoys\/44825801852\/in\/album-72157700369708064\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm2.staticflickr.com\/1921\/44825801852_5627ec579e_z.jpg\" alt=\"lg_scarfield\" width=\"428\" height=\"640\" \/><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DKE Toys will be set up at New York Comic Con at the Javits Center October 4-7.
