Hi friends, welcome to Custom Paper Toys! This is home for all the little paper creatures I make. There is a list over to the right of all my free paper toys you can download and have for your very own. I'll post a new free Paper Toy of the Month every month. I'll also be posting a stray paper toy here and there as well as my paper toy commissions and collaborations.

Hey Matt, caught your stuff over at Flickr. Truly amazing toys here. I teach high school kids about Paper Toy customisation sometimes and will have to show them your work as a role model!
WONDDDERFULLLLL.
How do you make a toypaper? It's so great! I don't understand how you make this! Is there a freeware to do this or what!! thanx a lot!
I just kinda make em by trial and error. I just try something build it, make changes, build it, make changes, build it, make changes... etc until it's right! I use Adobe Illustrator to do most the artwork and to get the lines matching up. I also build lots of paper toys by other artist and that gives me ideas for my own.
Hope that helps!
Excellent stuff!!
big props!
if you should ever be interested in doing a custom of my own papertoy, i would be honored..
keep it up!
many greetings from germoney!
Hey Nick I'd love to do a custom SIZZA! Where can I get my hands on the template I can't seem to get on the nickknite.com site today. It must be down.
great!
how did it get to be June 5, 2009? Do I have to wait a whole year and a half to get these models? :D ... LOL

Hi, im new to the paper crafting gig and i was wondering what people are using to print these. thanks
Great designs btw
I'd recommend either card stock (110lb) or I use matte photo paper. It's a little thinner but the colors look great.
thanx a lot

Hey Matt
do you think you could design toy boxes in your style of my characters? George Liquor, etc?
John
Yeah Man! That would be awesome, I'd love to do that.
I love this blog ! Thank you very much to share with us your amazing works !! ^^
I just love your paper toys! The bunnies and robots are adorable. I would love to get some for my daughter but I think she is too young now and would just chew on them!
Very cool though!
Where did you buy your time machine? My local electronic store is always sold out
I made my own time machine, out of paper of course!

Gotta love the paper toys. These are 'cuttin' edge! Dope!
Love your works! They're such an inspiration I've been trying my hand at papertoy-making recently.
I just finished a series of MacKintosh chairs as a personal project. Here they are if anyone wants to check them up:

You pwn me.
Hey Matt What is the reason Arnie have a more big pupil than the other.
Hey when are you going to put a new paper toy?
Very soon, I have several toys that are almost ready to release. At least one will be up this coming week.
I just brought it in Hong Kong. It was AWSOME!
Compliqué à faire celui-là ? En tout cas très drôle !
Woah..... nice....
love this one,
What is the name of the spiky fellow that is at the top of the blog on June 5 (?), 2010? I'd love to make him!
Oops! Never mind - I found Arnie's page.
Duuuuude - you are brilliant. Just had to tell ya.
I came across your site while surfing and looking for inspiration for a new hobby for the year, you are an inspiration! Thanks! You are an amazingly talented artist. Aside from helping me keep my hands (and mind) busy, you've also inspired me to start designing my own figures. Keep up the good work and I would love to see more of your work in the future (without having to disrupt the time-space continuum).
