Marking Paul Smith’s iconic mascot Julius’ leap into 3D vinyl form, Toy Art Gallery will play host to a number of customs from the art toy/low brow scene’s finest next month, the latest to be revealed coming from none other than Bob Conge aka Plaseebo… Entitled Mummy Julius, the rather macabre take on the super-cute monkey figure offers a wonderful contrast, featuring a mix of grimy hand cut rag, a gruesome skull-head sculpt, plus Conge’s usual array of faded sprays and hand brushed weathering. Displaying alongside a huge selection of other customs at the Julius Toy Art Show’s opening on August 3rd, any remaining pieces will be available online soon after…
