Simple shaped softies

Inspired by my earlier post about Z's dolls I came over all childish and decided to go toy hunting... and look what I found! These plush lovelies are made by toy creator and street artist 'taklu4she' from Russia with love (well, Moscow to be precise).

These soft creatures, as well as Taklu's urban style doodles and artwork, prove that simple shapes alongside the correct colour concoction and only a drop of detail can go a long way.

If you'd like to adopt one (okay, buy one) then contact Taklu4she through her (or his) flickr account.

If you're a poor artist that can't afford a Taklu original, check out the flickr page anyway... the work, which is fresh and fantastic, is sure to get your inspirational clock ticking! Besides, it may inspire you to have a go at creating your own (probably less cute) plush toys... After all, someone has to take care of the ugly ducklings (we can't all be cute and squishy!)
