That looks fantastic. Too bad about the movement restrictions :-(

Tri-Gate Creation's store has one of the Final Fantasy type swords for sale. Dunno any details further than that. :-/

I'm floored by this one. If someone told me this was a preview of the new Microman Final Fantasy line from Takara I'd believe them. You captured him to perfection. This is exactly how I imagine a retail release of this figure would be, right down to the swappable hands and different swords. You couldn't have done it any better than this.

Holy wow! Your sculpting looks amazing! Only critique I can give is that the shoulder pad looks a little big or the bolts are too small. Everything else to me is spot-on, and love the Ultima Sword!

Yeah ... the shoulder pad in kinda hindrance 2 certain movement but it's removable. Most poses are possible unless cloud starts singing YMCA.

Not sure why but Takara won't do hi detail sculptings on their Microman lines ... mostly are standard material force base molds ... I'm sure if they get more licenses and more detailed sculpting in, the line will sell very well cus the articulations rocks. But then again I the standard fare body works very well for customizing ... ;)

Yeah ... I only realised and regretted after I finished painting the shoulder pad ... it's soft plastic so it's not really hard 2 make it smaller .. It's removable so it's actually quite easy for me 2 redo it ... but just 2 lazy ... ;)

Yea, "Tekno" is one bad Mo Fo (excuse the French) but when your talkin about a custom that looks better than what the manufacturer can produce......well what else can you say? ;-)

Great job as always!

Tq again for the comments... :)

Tho I post mostly completed works here ... every comment/critique helps a lot ... eventho I don't make changes 2 the current figs due 2 laziness ... I take into acct on future works those things that I make mistakes on... that's why I always post them here ... :)

I'm almost done with the oth sword -> ultimate weapon.

ImageImage

The painting is done in a way that shows kinda like a dispersed light source in the sword. The 2 pics above are angled and shows that.

The pic blw shows the painting scheme clearer.

Image


I still have 2 clear coat the sword 2 make it more shiny. This is an in-game shot of the sword.

Image


Actually after completing the sword I feel it looks pretty stupid and cartoony for my liking ... will see how it comes out with a few clear coats... ;)
