Project Synopsis
The Tiny Chef has been delighting fans on social media with his quirky accent and unique recipes. I got to work with him during his summer adventures, first on his wagon where he announced his latest plush toy, and next on the interior of his Ice Cream Truck.
Tiny Chef’s world is small but bright, and full of amazing gadgets. I’m constantly amazed at what he’s able to put together! It was a great opportunity to get to build things with him. Catch the Tiny Chef on instagram at @thetinychefshow !
Builds
PLUSHIE WAGON
The Tiny Chef needed to go out into the world and sell his brand new plush dolls. This is the travelling wagon he hawked his wares from. Constructed from lasercut MDF pieces, tongue depressors, and custom casted crayons. I took this build from start to finish, from construction, painting and dressing.
Final Design
I was very proud with the final build of the Wagon. The primary colors helped the whole thing pop, and the lights installed along the back wall lit up to create a very pleasing look! I also loved the yarn that connected the Crayon poles.
The Tiny Chef was able to use his best salesman voice to sell his plushie dolls, seen in this photo. I was able to use it for lots of great instances as he continued to sell his merchandise.
INT. SHAVED ICE TRUCK
I helped fabricate and build the interior of The Tiny Chef’s Shaved Ice Truck as well. Imagined as a kind of Airline RV Shell, the inside mimics stainless steel and wood grain design. I especially loved mixing all the dyes to create a rainbow-hue layout of the chef’s shaved ice shelf. Everything the Tiny Chef does is unique and one-of-a-kind!
