Welcome to the “blank” issue of II LOVE, the last one in this year. Seems that all this time the focus on paper toys was on finished products, admiring the “skin” on certain shape. We can all witness how good skin design can impact even on simplest forms and how some shapes function well with any decoration. In the process of creation, these are two different phases which are easily separated. When you see large number of paper toys together, on certain shows, photos or in home collections, they are usually with “make-up”. In this issue we will remain on the first phase of creation, the form. Here the accent is put on the sculptural aspect of denuded paper toys, giving an impression that each one of them represents it’s own species. Here is shown a selection of more than 50 paper toys, but of course, there are lot of other different kinds of paper toys out there. Many great designs are left out because of various reasons and I feel really sorry for some of them. This issue brigs you also an unique paper toy art-project “H-man“, from Italian artist Vinsart and the exclusive paper toy this time comes from young Australian designer DMC. In addition, there’s a paper toy contest by Castleforte to keep you still busy, before the end of 2009, so hurry up and win cool prizes (like this skate deck here)! Hope you’ll enjoy it!

VINSART H-man PROJECT
H-man è un modello studiato per funzionare bene esteticamente sia da solo che associato ad altri H-men. Insieme gli H-men possono essere accatastati e disposti in torri o piramidi, come se fossero acrobati o equilibristi. Le libere composizioni degli H-men permettono una buona disposizione degli elementi adatta a mostre pubbliche. Il modello può essere anche ribaltabile, restando sempre adatto a formare le piramidi di modelli. Questa connessione con altri elementi dà la possibilità ad un creativo di realizzare una grafica su più modelli associati fra loro, oppure di fare un solo modello e collegarlo con quello di altri autori. Ho voluto inserire nel template bianco anche degli elementi opzionali per personalizzare il modello, anche questi elementi combinati fra loro possono assumere nuove forme e numerose scelte diverse.
H-man is a model designed to work aesthetically well , both unique and associated with other H-men. Together, H-men can be stacked and arranged in towers or pyramids, as if they were acrobats or jugglers. Free compositions of H-men allow a good arrangement of elements suitable for public exhibitions. The model can also be reversible, remaining always suitable to form the pyramids of models. This connection with other elements gives a possibility to the artist to realize a graphic on multiple models, or to make a single model and connect it with models from other authors. I wanted to include optional elements in the blank template as well, to customize the model. These elements, combined together, may take new forms and offer different choices. VinsArt
