Dunny

KidRobot Company has created them. Both characters have been made for budding artist to create their very own. Dunny the rabbit version has already been done and you can see a few designs by artist like below.

Getting a familiar action hero and turning them in to a Dunny is a clever one because it makes the artist think of how they are going to fit and design the hero on to the figure. The extra accessories on the Dunny look very cool and cute just because it’s a smaller version of the custom.

The use of the metal grid makes the piece look a bit real in a way that it may actual move its eyes or move. The artist used the black version of Dunny because if he or she used the white version it may of taken them a long time to get to the final design and wont be soo harsh looking. It really looks rusted and old that another reason why I like it.

In this piece I like because of just using 2 colours to make it so interesting to look at. The characters catch your eyes and draw you to the biggest character on the face of Dunny. It also makes you want to look on the back just in case there was a change to the way the artist did the characters.

This one tells a story of some kind. The bright colours make the piece cheerful and cute at the same time. I don’t really like it because there aren’t that much detail the piece but it has a piece in my mind why I like it.

I really like this because the artist may of though hard to make to make this Dunny look different to the other artists. I think that artist may of gotten the 20” or 11” Dunny to do this piece because to place a little Dunny like that or he or she could of created their own Dunny to put in the middle or just got a smaller version.
