Blog posts are like buses...

You wait for one, and three come along at once...

So, after I'd finished planning out lots of cute, little things to try and make... I decided to not make any of them yet.

I got distracted. By this cute little guy...

That face...So cute.

So yeah, while I was looking through my image folders of things to possibly make, I stumbled across Tantarian, an optional boss monster from FFIX, which I must have saved an image of ages ago. He looked at me, I looked at him...It was fate.

He's too big for my normal little photo nook corner...

The book pages are actual paper pages I made, which smell of coffee [eww], because the teastained style just wasn't cutting it. His ribbon bookmark, page finder, thing, is actually made of a tube of ribbon, with a wire inside to give it the shape. Everything else is made of Polymer clay as usual. He's...not quite the same proportions as the ingame version...Maybe this is a baby Tantarian. I'm thinking of painting him a library backdrop to sit in front of when he gets his proper picture taken.

I still think he's cute anyway. Plus he has re-awoken my enthusiasm, and the Bravely Default project is back on!

The front/back of his book. The flash seems to have highlighted all the shiny fingerprints you can't see in real life.

Why yes, I did decided to make the front and back covers of his book as well, even though no one will ever see them... Why? Because I am a lunatic and making the parts that no one will actually get to see is one of those irritating little quirks I have. Woe is me.
