The 9th of April sees the forth annual Designer Toy convention happening in central London. This is the UK’s biggest and best Art toy and Toy Maker convention, and I will be there again.

I am furiously working on lovely stuff to bring and will have a few surprises. and a new figure or two.

Last year’s event sold out before the doors opened so I strongly suggest you pick up a ticket in advance online now, from the Toycon online site http://www.toyconuk.com

I hope to see many of the there. Please do stop by my booth (No. 35) and say hello.

Doktor A on Patreon

My big news this month is the official launch, today, of my Patreon page.

Patreon is a great crowd funding system which allows fans of artists to support them as they work, and in return get exclusive content and sometimes goodies direct from the artist.

I will be posting lots of behind the scenes, work-in-progress information and pictures exclusively on my Patreon page. Giving unusual detail on my working practice and methods which have taken me decades to learn and hone. A great place to pick up tips if you create yourself, and an interesting thing to see if you are a collector of my work.

I will also be giving Patrons first crack at new releases before they go to my online store, as well as the regular news and information.

There is a great Patreon App for Apple and Android which lets you follow your artists in an Instagram style. It’s fun and easy and I am excited to be sharing my work in this new way with you.

I hope you would like to support me in this new fashion.
