    Ittan-momen(いったんもめん)

    Ittan-momen (一反木綿, "one-tenth hectare of cotton") is a ghostly phenomenon from the folklore of Kagoshima Prefecture in Japan, which flies through the air at night and attacks humans, often by wrapping around their faces to smother them or around the neck to strangle them.
    The ittan-momen became well-known throughout Japan as one of the main characters in the comic series Ge Ge Ge no Kitarō.
    Ittan Momen has also been featured as an enemy in the video game Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja, as well as its sequel, Izuna 2.
    Ittan Momen was also featured shortly in the movie Hellboy: Sword of Storms
    Here's my Ittan-momen figure.I sculpted his body from clay.His arms are some 80's GI Joe arms that I had in one of my parts boxes.Painted the entire figure with acrylics and sealed with Modpodge.

            He reminds me a bit of Gumby. I love that he flies through the air and smothers people
