Description: I was the 3D designer on this pioneering project. I sculpted the entire figure set of knights, royals, wizard, and dragon. I also sculpted the distintive decorative gargoyle trim on the castle towers as well as the dragon cave feature.
This project was a significant milestone for a young toy department. We trailblazed the design to production pipeline for the company's first large scale play set which was completely designed, sculpted, and engineered in-house. Our efforts established a strong collaborative spirit between the creative, educational, and engineering teams. This play set proved successful in intial sales and product longevity, still on sale today more than 15 years after it's initial release. Its success later prompted development of a sister product the Over the Rainbow Enchanted Castle.
