Sword Kirby

Wielding a sword is one of Kirby’s copy abilities and is perhaps one of his most iconic powers. Sword Kirby wears a long green hat similar to Link from the Legend of Zelda series and wields a sword.

 

A year ago the Force awakened in Kirby when he swallowed a jedi. Now it is time to change his appearance again and I decided to go for Sword Kirby. This also gave me the opportunity to make some changes to Kirby’s design. The major change being that the round body is now tilted backwards. Why? Because of his (future) hats! The hat looks so much better when it appears to be firmly around his head instead of lying ‘flat’ on top. I also made his feet a bit smaller and they are more embedded with the body emphasizing the roundness of Kirby. I had a blast rebuilding the pink cute fellow.
