Red XIII was made for AeraCura for a video game swap on the Arena. He was based off the character of the same name from Final Fantasy VII. The design I used was from the video game as opposed to the that from the movie Advent Children, as I thought the style of realism from that would not translate to a pony nearly as well.
Red XIII was made from the body of a Lullabelle and the head of a fakie. Ironically, Lullabelle's head had previously been used in the making of Cloud Strife, another FFVII character. He was changed from pony to cat-thing using Apoxie Sculpt and Fixit Sculpt, and then painted with a variety of high quality model acrylics. His leg bands were also accented with gold leafing.
