Ok, I’m a fan of the Final Fantasy series, and one of the things that I like to do is convert chibi minis into some of my favorite videogame characters.

Naturally, one of my favorites is Auron from Final Fantasy X. He’s such a badass.

I started out with the Goemon mini from Ninja All Stars (which is a fine mini in its own right). Everything that isn’t Goemon was made from green stuff. All together, I think he came out rather well.

That looks bloody amazing! I'm a huge fan of Auron, and you did him justice here. Love the hair/face/glasses...just nails it!

Yeah, with a lot of FF games, there's one character that I just think of as the iconic center.

With most of them, it is the main character (Cloud, Sqall, Tarra). With 10, it is definitely Auron.

I agree with this. The piece is very professionally done and Auron looks amazing here. I especially like the "tone" of the colors. If that makes sense.

Very cool!

Thanks- and that makes perfect sense to me.

When I'm doing stock minis, I tend to do things wildly different from the standard colors, but with something like this, it is really important to get the 'mood' right for the character. I think that if the red had been more saturated, it would look less like Auron.
