Big things are coming this year. It's Unico's 50th anniversary AND year of the horse so I figured while refining the garage kit I made, to also make it bigger (original print was about 5.5 inches (14 cm), this new one is going to be around 7.5 inches (19 cm), though with the base he could be around almost 10 inches (25 cm) tall!)

Update: Legs and tail have been printed and good lord he’s huge even without the base. Here’s a few side by side comparisons to a few figures I own

A rare WIP from me but I've been dabbling a lot into 3D sculpting and with the power of technology (a resin printer) I have the power to essentially make my own garage kits and models.

So I decided to start a bit simple with Unico, largely based on his appearance in the 1981 movie (which you should watch, it's up on the internet archive in both english and japanese). Right now he's super WIP as I've had to do a fair amount of printer maintenance recently but I should be getting back on track soon.

Finally gave this old guy a glow up! I was a bit hesitant since I wanted to keep him how he was, but I finally decided a new coat of paint would breathe life into GZ here. He has a cracked visor and one of his mouth guard pieces are missing, but I think it adds a lot of charm to him.

Originally I wanted to do more weathering, but I really liked how the paint came out and didn’t want to mess it up haha.

Gave an old bootleg model kit I assembled some TLC! I'm not the best when it comes to painting teeny tiny details, but I manage haha. Wanted to give my man Topjoy the best

Here's what he looked like before

Finally after much agony, allergies, and a broken knee joint, I am done with my first repaint/customization! He's a standard Blokees Bumblebee that has been repainted and customized.

I call him Lovebug 💌🐝

I didn't THINK I would do Artfight this year, but ended up doing it with one goal in mind: Draw any and all IL OCs I could find that had their users participating in 2025's AF.

And somehow I did it despite all odds. Character credits in order are down below with links

What's better than one leaguer? TWO leaguers!

More about these two under the cut

Sun Bright and Moon Light are two baseball leaguers designed to "fill the void" that would have been left by Gold Arm and Gold Mask's forced retirement from Dark Kings. Sun Bright would have been the unruly, bombastic batter that engaged in much more physical violence, Moon Light the quiet but calculating pitcher that engaged in more psychological and verbal tactics.

However because of certain events, this didn't come to fruition, leading the two to be sold off to another team to recoup lost costs from what was undoubtedly going to be a major sale for Dark. Violence began to lessen more and more, and the duo were shipped from team to team to try to make it work, but it was all a bit futile.

This resulted in a major breaking point for Sun Bright, who because of his stubbornness, doubled down on rough play extra hard. This made him unwieldy and resulted in him becoming a stray Leaguer, whereas Moon Bright was easier to get onto the fair play train.

Moon Bright, while a good pitcher, tends to wallow a bit in Sun Bright departing so suddenly and angrily. He knows his brother has a good heart deep down, but he's the only one who ever really saw it. So getting others to see eye to eye is quite the challenge.
