Papertoys, the Internet phenomenon that\u2019s hot among graphic designers and illustrators around the world, now comes to kids in the coolest new book. Created and curated by Brian Castleforte, a graphic designer and papertoy pioneer who rounded up 25 of the hottest papertoy designers from around the world (Indonesia, Japan, Australia, Italy, Croatia, Chile, even Jackson, Tennessee), Papertoy Monsters offers 50 fiendishly original die-cut designs that are ready to pop out, fold, and glue. The book interleaves card stock with paper stock for a unique craft package; the graphics are colorful and hip, combining the edginess of anime with the goofy fun of Uglydolls and other collectibles. Plus each character comes with its own back-story.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;m proud to present the monsters I have designed:<br \/>\n<strong>Scorpion Robot<\/strong><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.matthijskamstra.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scorpion_Robot_wp500.jpg\" alt=\"Scorpion Robot\" title=\"Scorpion Robot\" width=\"500\" height=\"354\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1651\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matthijskamstra.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scorpion_Robot_wp500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.matthijskamstra.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scorpion_Robot_wp500-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><br \/>\nand<br \/>\n<strong>Squidbeak<\/strong> (formely know as &#8216;Octobeak&#8217;)<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.matthijskamstra.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Squidbeak_wp500.jpg\" alt=\"Squidbeak\" title=\"Squidbeak\" width=\"500\" height=\"337\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.matthijskamstra.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Squidbeak_wp500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.matthijskamstra.nl\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Squidbeak_wp500-300x202.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>You won&#8217;t find a lot of images of these Monster papertoys around on the Internet, I&#8217;m not sure but I think my paper models are rated <em>advanced<\/em>.<br \/>\nAlthough you can see a part of the page where Squidbeak is at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boingboing.net\/2011\/01\/17\/papertoy-monsters-a.html\" target=\"_blank\">boingboing.net<\/a> (check the first page of the book you see).<\/p>\n<p>Here a promo of the author <a href=\"http:\/\/castleforte.wordpress.com\/\">Castleforte<\/a>:<br \/>\n<object width=\"640\" height=\"390\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/T3_XQ2aSx4s&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;version=3\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/T3_XQ2aSx4s&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;version=3\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allowScriptAccess=\"always\" width=\"640\" height=\"390\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p>The Papertoy Monster book has also a site:<a href=\"http:\/\/papertoymonsters.tumblr.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">papertoymonsters.tumblr.com\/<\/a> so check that out for more pictures of the monsters.
