SOFT&FURRY™ – LOOFT and DOO and GROOND

By: Todd Berger

cypher13’s latest art/toy endeavor, SOFT&FURRY™ is moving along at a blistering rate.  The S&F™ logo design contest is in it’s final week.  Deadvolt of Copenhagen, Denmark dominated week #7 with a super awesome logo treatment.  Thanks Adam!!!

And so, It’s time to drop some toys – all handmade, all hand-cast, and totally “man”ufactured in-house.

Please say hello to the cast of SOFT&FURRY™: LOOFT and DOO and GROOND!

This is their tale…

The soft and furry are very, very old.
They have been since here was here.
When here was new, there were the three.
LOOFT helped all to breath, DOO helped all to drink and GROOND made all things grow.
The three were one.
Many creatures, both large and small, of water, of air, and of land arose.
They breathed the air, they drank the water, they fed on all that grows.
They took only what they needed.
But one such creature took too much.
This creature misunderstood the natural code.
Green things grayed, blue things blackened, and clear things turned to cloud.
Those who were soft and furry, hardened with gloom.
The three may be soft and furry once more.
But, for now their hardness has saved them.
LOOFT helps all to breath, DOO helps all to drink and GROOND makes all things grow.
The three are one.
None can live without them.

SPECIAL NOTE: Keep your eyes peeled for an extra-special S&F™ collab with regular JE contributors, artist extraordinaires, and mega-plush magicians, Josh Holland & Shannon Bonatakis!!!  Oh yeah.

 

ADAM HANSEL – DEADVOLT

By: Todd Berger

Adam Hansel aka DEADVOLT, ASH, ADAMSKI was born in Dubuque, Iowa but now lives in Copenhagen, Denmark.  He’s a wicked good designer and all around rad guy, I met him a couple months ago through my homey Pe.  He and Pe went to high school together back in Iowa.  Here’s some of Adam’s work, and oh, he happily responds to “Hey Asshole!” – just don’t ask him for a cigarette.
