Ippon-datara
一本ダタラ (いっぽんだたら)
One-Legged Blacksmith
This shy monster is rarely encountered by humans, and all that is usually seen of it is a single line of huge footprints about a foot across, winding through the snowy mountains of Wakayama prefecture. Nonetheless the ippon-datara is thought to be a large human-like beast with one leg and one eye. It is also rumored to be an expert blacksmith(not sure about this part it may be a modern invention,but I like it), or perhaps the ghost of one.
Here's my 2nd Ippon-dattara action figure complete with his blacksmithing accessories.I sculpted his head from clay over a CTVT old man head,and for the body I used an Emce torso,leg,and arms(I dyed all the parts black with Rit),which I sculpted over with the clay.I sculpted all his Blacksmithing accessories from clay as well(the blade he's working on is tinfoil which I painted and sealed).All sculpted parts were painted with acrylics and sealed with modpodge.

More coolness, the staging of that second to last pic kills me. Really dig the accessories.

I prefer the monkey-butt of pic three. Man, you have made an EMPIRE out of these creatures. Great work.

Thanks Joe,Gary,Thomas,Dave,and PM!And Thomas I was waiting for someone to comment on his 4 nipples(finally,its about time) since the first one,but all anyone commented on was the fact that he had 2 butt-cheeks and one leg(even Dave didn't mention the nipples and he owns him now).
