Scott Wilkowski’s Skin Deep @ Designer Con

1_DSC_7636

Scott Wilkowski (above, on the left, next to George and Ayleen Gaspar) turned heads and put the hurt on credit cards with the first stop of his ‘Skin Deep’ touring show @ Designer Con. Presented by DKE Toys, Skin Deep showcases Scott’s sculpting and resin figure making prowess with his specialty – shimmering translucent figures with ghastly, detailed, embedded skeletal features.   This time around he’s expanding his reach producing limited-edition runs of six figures : – Gwin from October Toys ($50), Otis & Otto from Scott Tolleson ($50), the Sucklord carded figure from Suckadelic ($100), the Buff Monster 3” figure ($100), Frank Kozik’s 5” Labbit by Kidrobot ($150) and finally, Luke Chueh’s Possesed by Munky King ($300).  Each one is limited to 50 pieces split across two colorways.

Collectors made a bee line to the DKE booth as the doors opened to pick up a ticket, thereby reserving their place in line.  By the end of the day only a handful of figures remained from the initial stock of 10 per figure type. Success, by any measure.

Next up on the tour? Lulubell (Meza,AZ) in December and Screaming Sky Gallery (Portland, OR) in late February.
