Akkorokamui. Made from polymer clay and hand painted. This is for a contest entry.

The Akkorokamui is 3 inches wide by 4 inches long and 1.5 inches high. He is hand painted and there are tiny little ships broken up in his tentacle with fisherman on them.

Akkorokamui (アッコロカムイ) is a gigantic octopus-like monster from Ainu folklore, which supposedly lurks in Funka Bay in Hokkaidō. It is said that its enormous red body can reach sizes of up to 120 meters in length. Due to its coloration and immense size, it is visible from great distances. It is possibly a giant squid or an octopus.
