I have so! I've seen your little freaky clay guy, for one.
How to make HKIB:
Go to the store* and buy cheap plastic Hello Kitty figure**. Take it home, remove packaging, etc. Paint it with acrylic craft paint (in this case I used black, black pearl, and a little white). Patience and small brushes are your friends. Add a coat of matte acrylic varnish to stave off the inevitable chipping.
*Or your closet. **You may substitute Pokemon, Curious George, Fisher-Price Little People, Powerpuff Girls, fast-food premium toys, etc.
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaa! That was SARA that made the little clay dude! I just make like cardboard armchairs and collages and other such stupid stuff.
If I ever find a big Hello Kitty thingy, I make one in your honour.
A very easy thing to do is buy a big thing that is packaged in polystyrene and they put little card bopard half cubey thing on the corners of the polystyrene to stop it crumbling. You take one of those and paint it like a chair.
Yay! (Kitty is like 2 inches high, so no hugeosity really.)
...buy a big thing that is packaged in polystyrene and they put little card bopard half cubey thing on the corners of the polystyrene to stop it crumbling. You take one of those and paint it like a chair.
At a guess, the price of your Kitty figurine of choice (they're on clearance @ Target right now for 75 cents) and a pot of black acrylic. Matte varnish optional but recommended.
You really ought to try it yourself, but if you don't wanna, how about you find a Kitty (or whatever) you like, send it to me, and I'll paint it for you? (My local's out of these guys. I grabbed the last of them today since the price was so low, but none were MIB-compatible. Though one might make a neat Kitty Bowie.)
Cool. If I find a suitable one, I just may take you up on it. I mean, sure. I could do one myself--I used to paint Warhammer and Warhammer 40K figs--but I really like the work you do. :)

I don't care. You can still do it. I have declared that it is so.
Oooo, cardboard armchairs??? Any tips for making a pair of chairs for the MIB bears?

If I happen by the other Tarzhey, I'll see if they have this figurine (even if you don't want it, I can use it for something), just in case.
