Giyu Tomioka is a member of the Demon Slayer Corps in the Demon Slayer Anime. For more information about him, check out the fandom wiki page. For more information about the nanoblock builds check out my collections page for links to other reviews.
This nanoblock build is split into 2 parts. There is the head and the body.
The head is lined up straight so it is an easy base. Then you build the head in layers like a normal nanoblock build. As you build the head, you will add the details of the eyes. One of the most noticeable things about this head is the hair. In the anime, his hair is messy in a ponytail. As you build the head, you add these defining details to the model.
Next, you build the body. This is notable because there are several different colors on the top while most of the tops are single-colored. In creating the build, first, you build the edges of the top which is basically a bar of several colors. You build the bar up until you add the arms and the rest of the body. Then you add the hips and the legs. There is a clear brick to keep the build from tipping over.
The final steps of the build are to attach the head to the body and to build and attach the sword.
Things I liked:
- The detail in the hair was a nice change of pace
- The added detail of having the various colors in the jacket
Things I didn’t like:
- A downside of the colors in the jacket is less study than a normal nanoblock build
