Phu! just finished dominating his S&F™ handmade DOO. When it comes to customs, Phu! is pretty tough to beat. He took DOO to a whole new place… Rumor has it he’s even got Kluver a little nervous… and he’s not an easy guy to rattle when it comes to custom shit. Awesome.

Phu! just completed his 10″ custom YOKA Panda for Cardboard Spaceship’s upcoming exhibition ‘Beasts of Burden’ at Subtext in San Diego. The Avatar 7 patrol spacecraft comes with 2 Rebel Pilots. Avatar 7 was brought to life utilizing cardboard, cable ties, hose clamps, plastic bottle camps, plastic hose, wire and of course Phu!’s signature extra-nasty paint steez. Wicked.

Phu! has been busy customizing loads of new toys in an effort to keep up with the crazy number of commissions he’s been receiving. He’s started posting before and after pics of all his work on his blog, and it’s pretty amazing. He just finished up a custom Fatima (one of Sam Flores’s little ladies) and totally took it to another level. It’s great to see Phu!s interpretation of some of the toy worlds modern classics. Yeah Phu! - totally Phuturistic.

PhuEK, or Phu!, is in my humble opinion of the best 3d customizers of vinyl, sneakers, and just about any object that has more than 2 dimensions - period. “3D art is Phu’!s pursuit, especially in the realm of vinyl customizing. Phu!’s Phuturistic concept is a manifestation through his artistic form of thought and personalized treatment in which he exercises the habit of recycling. It’s with this Phuturistic niche, Phu!’s customed vinyls have been commissioned and showcased in various international exhibitions and shows namely in Europe, USA, Canada, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Indonesia.” Keep your eyes on this Singapore based artist/designer cause there’s no end in sight! Check out Phu!’s latest custom Luke Chueh “possessed” and his “REBEL/RESIST” kicks for New Balance.
