NYCC 2012: Kid Ink Industries
Located in one corner of the Tenacious Toys booth was Kid Ink Industries, home to artist Kris Dulfer. Kris' little corner was home to quite a few custom-painted pieces, most of them using Monster Kolor paints and some using established bases like the Dude from Dudebox. However, there were also quite a few monster miniatures that Kris had given the Monster Kolor paint treatment as well. What really caught my eye, though, was the large-scale diorama Kris had at his corner of the booth, featuring two pirate ships in combat on the high seas. Each one also had a little Dunny crew, and the whole thing was rather impressive. Check out the firing cannons, for example! Awesome stuff. Did you know?
