Kirby Touchdown by seenew Kirby Touchdown by seenew
acrylic painted Super Sculpey figure. 14" tall (9.5" without sword).

this is a project for my 3D design class. We had to hybridize two existing characters. I chose the contrasting personalities of cute, pink Kirby from old school Nintendo fame, and new school badass, Travis Touchdown from No More Heroes.

Here's an image of Kirby: [link]

Here's one of Travis: [link]

And here is the original concept I whipped up in Illustrator: [link]


details and in-progress shots to come.

:icontso1: This has to be one of the most bad ass pieces in the history of bad assery- I mean, you can't help but love Travis's cool and goofy demeanor, not to mention, Kirby is just as awesome in such nostalgic fashion. Put them together: Kirby Touchdown... 'Nuff said.

Fantastic piece of art, I am truly envious of your craftsmanship!

I remember commenting that I saw this in Nintendo Power. Now that I think about it, them talking about your sculpture was the first time I'd even heard of No More Heroes.

I don't think Suda has any say in the Smash series, unfortunately.

He actually wrote the entire story line for Brawl. He's pretty good friends with a lot of major game developers actually. Shigeru Miyamoto and Hideo Kojima included.

Ah, the sweet pleasures of having a DA. Now I've gotta find that Nintendo roller-coaster.... :iconimthinkingplz:
It's really cool; I love the detail on the mouth and hair. (Kirby with hair--that just sounds so funny to me~)

The first issue I ever got of Nintendo Power and this was in it. I've stayed a suscriber of it for a long time, yet I still have yet to see something as badass as this.

...How long did this take you to do, if you don't mind answering?

thanks!

I am afraid I don't really remember how long it took exactly. I'd probably estimate somewhere around 30-40 hours. :) That's from concept to finish.
