So, the other day I was messing around and decided to make myself a little toy of 2B from NieR: Automata. You know, the cool android lady with the sword? Yeah, her.
I started by gathering some materials. Nothing fancy, just some basic PVC stuff I had lying around. I wanted to get her look right, you know? So I spent a good chunk of time shaping the PVC. It was kinda tricky, making sure all the pieces fit together nicely to form her body. Bending, cutting, heating – the whole shebang.
- First, I shaped the body, kind of like a rough draft.
- Then, I worked on the details of her outfit. I really tried to capture the mechanical style.
- The sword was a bit of a challenge. I modeled it separately, trying to get that signature weapon look.
After getting the basic form down, I painted her. Mostly black and white, just like in the game. It was fun, but man, my hands were a mess by the end of it!
Finally, I put everything together. It was so satisfying seeing all the parts come together to form the final figure. She turned out pretty good, if I do say so myself. A cute little chibi version of 2B, now sitting on my desk. It’s not perfect, but it’s mine, and I made it. Pretty cool, right?
It’s not exactly a professional-grade Nier Automata 2B Bandai figure, but I’m proud of my little creation. It was a fun project, and now I have a unique little piece of NieR: Automata to call my own.
I mean, I’m not gonna sell it on some anime toy store, or anything, this was just for me. I like it. It made me think of the game. It’s not like a Square Enix or Form-ism high-quality type thing, but it’s something I made with my own hands. So, there you have it, my little adventure in toy-making. Who knows, maybe I’ll try making other characters in the future.
