Today we breathe a sigh of relief… as our good friend Adam Pratt aka Small Angry Monster announces his return to the art toy scene with a whole slew of awesome new work! Joining the highly anticipated custom Tuttz and Monster Magnets which should be debuting at NYCC next month, Adam will be opening the new Small Angry Monster store this Friday at 10am EST with both Mechavirus and Rivet Wars customs to kick proceedings off… Originally featured as WIP’s a couple of months back (check them out here), Adam was given 4 Ammonaitos by Todd Robertson aka Mechavirus for a special custom run. Sitting alongside the beautiful fungus encrusted Ammonaito that we originally revealed here, Adam has painted the other single in a hugely contrasting style, choosing an authentic copper finish with turquoise copper oxide weathering… Now interestingly, the third piece, which combines 2 Ammonaitos to create the skull shape seen to the right, has incorporated both styles to create a truly unique piece.
Our first encounter with Adam way back last year was through Rivet Wars creator Ted Terranova, so it came with great pleasure to find that he’s been hard at work finishing off customs of the original 2 RW creations, the Vert Tank and oversized Grunt. Coming with a whole host of sculpted and kit-bashed accessories including new guns, pouches and even a cigarette in the case of the Grunt, the pair are easily some of Adam’s best RW work to date. Currently in talks with Mr Terranova with regards to future projects, we’re guessing it wont be long until we see more from the pair… (fingers crossed for a custom Rocket Bike and Mono Wheel 2 pack!)
