This is my new sculpt that I’m working on. The first painted versions will be available at my next gallery show in Chicago.

Some progress shots of the making of Sookie La La who may be here as early as next week.

Check out the sculpt for my new toy Sookie La La which is about to be molded. I haven’t 100% figured out the release details, but if the molding goes well, he will be available by the end of the month. Though he’s been through quite an evolution, Mr. La La was the first character I developed under Hello, Brute back in 2005. He was made into a few different plush forms in 2006, and now he’s making his debut in resin. Keep your eyes peeled for more details in the next week.

I’m finishing the remainder of the outstanding orders, so thank you for your patience if you’re waiting on a package from Hello, Brute.

There’s a lot in the books for 2010, so be sure to keep checking in for surprises. You guys are the best! Take care.

My custom Hoophy, a collaboration with Shin Tanaka, is revealed today! It’s a paper toy that you can print at home and assemble yourself. Other artists for Hoophy include David Flores, Superdeux, David Horvath (Uglydolls), Skwak, Jon Burgerman, and Travis Lampe. Many thanks to Shin to inviting me to participate in this awesome series!

As of now, Charlie is almost sold out and I wanted to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for your support – the bloggers, re-tweeters, and especially the collectors. I can never say it enough — THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I have new stuff lined up for 2010 and am looking forward to an exciting year!

Love,
Jon Knox

Here is the second custom that will be available on Thursday. Everything is now set up in the shop, and you can check it out by clicking here.

Here’s the current tally for Charlie. Still haven’t decided which one will be the second variant. Might try and squeeze in a few more customs before the release later this week!

Here’s a look at a candidate for the second color variant of Charlie. Gotta get a move on, still planning to release him on Wednesday!
