"Hikari-kun" wip sculpt from LilJapan!

Hiro Hayashi aka LilJapan has just sent over some really cool shots of a figure he has been sculpting! Entitled "Hikari-kun", this is a Japanese lantern Yokai and according to Hiro "He has traveled all the way from Japan to look for a new environment that does not use electricity. Because of electricity he has been pretty much forgotten. With no use of a lantern he ventures off all over the world to find the one place he can light up with his flames and make friends. He hopes that he can meet many new friends that will accept him, but you know, who isn't scared of Yokai's. Its going to be a long adventure." Once cast, this figure will be resin and will stand about 5" tall. Hiro mention that he is shooting for a D-Con 2013 release... and if you would like to follow the progress of the entire process from concept to completion, hit up Hiro's Facebook and Instagram! I really dig the direction of this piece... super creepy, and I can't wait to see the final product!
