Neapolitan Negora

Last week, we blogged about being invited to the Konyatsu Dai Kaiju show at Q Pop. We had a chance to look at the preview photos and it looks amazing. The problem with participating in shows like these is you spend more money than you make! This is the toy we created for it:

It's a candy cat!

It’s Neapolitan Negora, the candy cat! We knew the sprinkles on the back would really bring this piece together so we bought some polymer sprinkles (no time to make them) and sealed them on using Mod Podge. The Mod Podge gave the brown a shiny, melted chocolate look that became a happy accident.

As we’ve discussed earlier, we love Japanese monsters. We love all monsters, but the Japanese have a particular flair for creating great beasties. This extends from medieval folktales of trickster yokai to modern depictions of giant, destructive kaiju. We put a lot of thought into it and we think Hideaki Anno designs some of the best kaiju. The way they look, the noises they make, their special attacks; the man clearly puts a lot of thought into his monsters.

Kaiju biology, it’s a well-researched field of made up science.

To celebrate such great cosmic monsters, Magen designed these Evangelion necklaces based on Sachiel and Sahaquiel. They were created to be fan art, but they were designed to be aesthetically pleasing to everyone.
