Doug Lockyer

Pressman Toys commissioned Doug, through Studio Designs, to design and illustrate packaging for nearly a dozen toy and game products between 1994 and 1996.

Mancala is a no-rights game, meaning any toy or game manufacturer can package and sell the concept. As such, only the packaging distinguished the product. Doug created the carved wooden border in 3D Studio Pro and retouched and illustrated the"gemstones" with the aid of original photography to create a compelling pack which, notably, is still stocked as the Mancala game of preference by Toys-"R"-Us today, ten years later.
