"Hot Date" Pin-up Girl

Hi there, my name is Kronk. I am an illustrator/toy designer/graphic artist and human being based in Cape Town, South Africa. I live to have adventures of creativity and I am über-passionate about my craft. Besides world domination, I also enjoy lengthy and snug sleeps, birds, biltong, rainbow colors, helping my friends, pints of lager, projectile weapons and a good laugh. I like to have fun times and I hope you do too. Self-produced art toys are designer collectibles created and manufactured independently by the artist or small teams without the backing of a large toy company or mass-market brand. These toys are often highly personal, artistic expressions and are usually made in limited runs. Key Characteristics include independent creation where the artist is in control of the entire process from concept, sculpting, and painting to production and packaging. These are usually made in small batches, often 10–100 pieces, which adds to their rarity, made using materials like resin, sofubi (Japanese soft vinyl), or 3D-printed components.
