Ryu Oyama
Born in 1977. Since his childhood, he has been interested in drawing and sculpting with clay. When he was in the first year of junior high school, he was shocked by the movie “Godzilla vs. Biollante” and made his first clay monster figure. With that as an opportunity, he started producing prototypes for garage kits and figures in earnest. After dropping out of art school, he made his debut as a garage kit sculptor at the age of 21. Since then, his name has gradually permeated the world of monster and creature modeling.
