Hi Folks, Matt Hawkins here in my first post on Paper Forest. I've been a big fan of this blog for a long time and I'm real excited about contributing. I love the idea of paper toys online. It's like a matter transporter. An artist creates a 3D object, flattens it, sends it through cyberspace, it crosses the globe as ones and zeros and then it is built back into a 3D object!
Shin Tanaka makes some of the coolest graffiti/urban paper toys and art around. His spiky babies are a free download.
He does a lot of great collaboration with other artists. Click on the "OTHERS" tab on his site to get blank toy templates you can download and customize yourself!
Get your graffiti on!

This is a really cool website! I loved the element of surprise by clicking to open the box and getting a random design each time.
In fact, I am suffering from repetitive strain disorder!!

You are spot on with the "matter transporter" comment! There is something magical about the bits-to-atoms translation that really does make you feel like you are on Star Trek. And to boot these models are incredible
