Overall Impression

Katsuhisa Yamada has a unique style. His models tend to
be very angular, and sometimes look a little unrefined.
Still, his creations have this certain "cuteness" that has some appeal.
They all start from the traditional bird-base, manipulated in strange
and original ways to create all flaps needed.
