I love the Kikwis of Skyward Sword. So much. They are too adorable. The noises they make, especially Bucha (the elder) make me giggle every single time. I particularly like his questioning "Kee-Kwee" and his "Shoooo!" noise. I now randomly make those noises at my family.

In a burst of inspiration (I haven't made something from clay in a long time), I made every Kikwi except the Hermit, who may be made later. My brother got a really cool little portable white box to take pictures in, so I decided to try it out. I put in a random tree from an old Barbie zoo play set to spice things up. The grass is a fuzzy blanket.

I really like how this came out. I might upload a size comparison shot later, because the smaller Kikwis are only a tad bigger than a penny. Originally, the small Kikwis were going to be the just a little smaller than Bucha ended up, but I wanted to be decently accurate to the sizes when they were compared to each other. I realized Bucha would have to be gigantic, so I decided to go a different route.

See Lopsa, the one with the grass crown-looking thing to the far right of Bucha? His face was the biggest pain in the butt to make, because getting a thin enough piece of clay and being able to place it was a major hassle. But I'm very pleased with how they came out.
