FINAL FANTASY IV
EDWARD PROJECT #509 CREATED: 2013 "Father, Edward is the Prince of Damcyan. He was disguised as a bard when he came to see me in Kaipo. Forgive me, Father, for running away. But I love Edward." Edward Chris von Muir was a poetic and gentle soul, heir to the throne of Damcyan by birthright, but preferring to spread his love of song throughout the land. He was traveling as a wandering bard, telling tales of heroism and assorted blunt silverware, when he found a kindred spirit in a girl named Anna. They eloped, despite the strong disapproval of her father, Tellah. When tragedy struck and the Red Wings air fleet, controlled by Golbez, decimated Damcyan, Anna shielded Edward from the bombardment with her own body. Edward would later join Cecil in his fight against Golbez, and later proved vital in defeating the Dark Elf, breaking his magnetic control over metallic weapons and armor. I started with Kid Flash, mostly because he was the right scale as my other Final Fantasy IV projects. I replaced his comparatively tame locks with the hair from a broken God of Rock toy, who also donated the bottom of his tunic as well as his hands (they were already sculpted as if they were strumming an instrument, which was perfect for Edward). I borrowed the hat from a Green Arrow action figure. The cape is from the TMNT Turtle Titan figure. His harp is made from various pieces I had laying around. |
