Captain Tsubasa

I received an interesting request to paint up the anime football team "Captain Tsubasa".

Captain Tsubasa, also known as Flash Kicker, is a popular long-running Japanese manga, animation, and video game series, originally created by Yƍichi Takahashi in 1981. The series mainly revolves around the sport of Association football.

The story focuses on the adventures of a Japanese youth soccer team and its football captain Tsubasa Oozora, whose name literally translates to "Big Sky Wings". The series is characterized by dynamic football moves, often stylish and implausible. The plot focuses on Tsubasa's relationship with his friends, rivalry with his opponents, training, competition, and the action and outcome of each football match.

Here's how the figures turned out on the little plastic men.
