Welcome to the November edition of Reactor-88's Custom Corner. This month we're highlighting Kong Andri. Kong hails from Jakarta, Indonesia, where he’s a creative partner in a small graphic design studio. Kong has been painting custom toys since 2009.
He gets inspiration from his 5 year-old son, so a lot of his creations lean towards cute themes, happy people, and robots. He also likes to utilize bright colors to evoke a feeling of happiness from everyone that sees his work. I must agree as I really enjoy looking at his creations. Obviously others do as well since Kong has a production piece in the upcoming Android Series 4.
It’s hard to believe that some of his custom works are not production toys- the precision in his Christmas and Uncle Chop Dunnys are amazing. Then there’s things like his Snap Kit Munny custom- growing up as a model kit builder that brings back memories. While Kong does not take commissions, if you’re interested in purchasing his work keep an eye out on his online store, as that’s where all his fabulous creations end up. If you’d just like to follow his work, you can check out his website or find him over on Instagram.
