Diego M. Montes aka Zinkete is an illustrator, street artist and always drawing kid from Sevilla, Spain, currently living in the World, with a long career as a mercenary artist for video games, cartoon series, and movies. He considers himself as a bipolar human being. He enjoys the summer as much as the winter, he loves drawing with pencil or digital media, and embraces both, 2D and 3D techniques. You can find Zinkete and his crazy characters in the space where the “cute” and the “awkward” join, somewhere between the critic and the absurd—always looking for the complicity and empathy with the viewer. 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.
