Nendoroid Ika Musume prototype

OK, the title might be a little misleading – this is a pre-prototype of Nendoroid Ika Musume, since I assumed that prototype Nendoroid should not be this “rough”. ^^; Anyway, Yukiwo Ageta tweeted another shot of Nendoroid Ika Musume, updated with her tentacle hair. Yep, it is still far from perfect, but at least it shows you that it is no longer a mere dream – it is getting into reality soon … hopefully. ^^

Another view of Nendoroid Ika Musume prototype

Well … I am getting excited to see her final version – at least the uncolored one – soon. What about you, Nendonesian ~ de geso? ^^

Dec20 by animaster

Nendoroid Ika Musume (customized?)

So you have been waiting for Ika Musume to be made into Nendoroid? Here is a (supposedly) good news for you: Yukiwo Ageta, my fave Nendoroid sculptor/designer, has just tweeted a picture of some rough draft of Nendoroid Ika Musume. Yep, he had only sculpted Ika Musume’s head roughly and used Nendoroid Al-Azif‘s body there, but it should be enough for us to grasp a general picture of Nendoroid Ika Musume, right? ^^

Rough sketch of Nendoroid Ika Musume design

… and here is Ageta-sensei’s Nendoroid Ika Musume design sketch which he tweeted a few days ago. Well, hopefully she would be made into a Nendoroid real soon. What do you think, Nendonesian? ^^
