Finally I can reveal a project that Metin has been working on last year. The project was super secret and the toy production company had a strict deadline to meet the release of the movie. That’s why Metin asked two other designers to help and he participated in the project management. I’m very proud of him and think the end result looks really good, so without much further ado I’d like to introduce the Minion pencil caps ^_^:

These are two of the Minions that were created by Metin and secretly they are my favorite ones of the complete collection of 16 toys. He carefully modeled the Minions in 3D, with their characteristic looks and enough space inside to fit a pencil. The actual toys were produced in China. Below you can see the rendered design proposal:

I couldn’t control myself and used some Re-Ment props…

How cute is Minion Bob?!

If you live in the Netherlands you might have heard of these Minions, they come for free with a purchase of €15 at the Plus Supermarket. Sadly these Supermarkets are a bit unevenly spread so if you haven’t got one in your place, just stalk relatives and friends, or try your luck at Marktplaats.
