Entering the Dunny scene with Kidrobot, artist Chauskoskis brings us the Baby G Dunnys. Brought to life with the help of one of the other artists from the series we are excited to have Chauskoskis in a Dunny Series! Here is a little bit more about the artist himself and the Baby Greasebat Dunny:
What it means to you? It was a great honor to get invited on this series Jeff Lamm and KR, many people don’t know (many do) that I was the sculptor of the original sofubi Greasebat, worked closely with Jeff in getting the right look and feel. So later on I wanted to make a Dunny version of the Greasebat, so I called Jeff and asked permission to try it and that’s how the Baby Greasebat was born in a few small resin runs. Baby G as I call it for this series is slightly different than my resin run. Less cute and more fierce!
Why did they choose those colors and design choices? One color way is inspired on the third edition of the sofubi version, the Brown/Gold edition, the second colorway is a green one, my trademark color.
Are there any “easter eggs” or features of the design with a story or something on the piece that people might not notice at first?
Not on this one *wink
What is this character’s personality like?I bet the best answer to this one , you got it on Jeff Q&A
