Artist Project of the Day -
"ULTRA IRON MAN" by ULTRAMAN, Founder of Ultra Design, superfans of Tezuka Osamu, specializing in advertising illustration, character design and toys production. He also collaborated with Hot Toys for projects such as Astro Boy, Black Jack & Pinoko.
His design concept combines elements from his favourite Astro Boy and the Japanese robot in 70s, so that the Iron Man he customized has a strong feeling of robot of earlier times. He also incorporates environmental ideas in his design, so 80% of the parts of this project are from recycled materials.
Ultraman always participates in exhibitions and charity auctions of Art Toys in different parts of the world. In 2007's Sotheby's auction, he was one of the Hong Kong people who auctions the custom-made toy for the first time.
