It took me a while to get my Final Fantasy IV Chocobos finished up. I was waiting on some new white paint to show up in the mail. (I mix white paint into pretty much every color. No white paint, and I can't do a damn thing.) So, I've got a version of the yellow Chocobo, the white Chocobo, and (of course) the ever-elusive black Chocobo (spoiler alert: it's really more blue than black). Going forward, I've got toys ready to modify into the MacGiant and RedGiant, and I also picked out some toys to turn into the various food-based monsters (Jelly, Cream, Pudding, etc.) Not exactly sure which ones will be next, so I guess we'll both be surprised! As long as you're reading this, have you ever noticed a toy that made you think, "Wow, that looks exactly like a monster from Final Fantasy IV"? Yeah, I know. It probably happens every single day. Anyway, if you want to, go ahead and click the Contact link and let me know about it. Maybe it's totally different from what I'm planning, but maybe it's a fantastic idea that I'll totally steal. You never know!

I just finished a miniature action figure version of the TinyMage, one of the roving monsters from Final Fantasy IV. Unlike a lot of the monsters in the game, whose game sprites were recycled for use as other creatures, the TinyMage is entirely unique within the game, so I only had to put together one of these. I'm working on some Chocobos right now, but I need more paint (you'd be surprised how much white paint I go through; I mix it with everything). Can't find single bottles of Testor's brand acrylic paints anywhere these days (enamel paints are much easier to find) so I just ordered some on eBay. As soon as it shows up I'll get back to work on them. (It was over 100 degrees yesterday. Hope the paint doesn't evaporate in my mailbox!) |
