  • beaded Pokémon: Gastly

    The Pokémon games themselves aren’t really my type of video game. But I like a good challenge and how to bead Pokémon sounds like a lot of fun to figure out.

    So some time ago I’ve done a beaded version of #92 Gastly from generation I. They are a Ghost/Poison type Pokémon and fly around in a cloud of violet gas. The body itself was fairly easy to come up with, whereas the gas was a little bit trickier. So I stuffed some violet fibres in the body, pulled out some of its strands and voilà Gastly got its own gas cloud.

    They are kind of scary, aren’t they?
