The eyebrows are neon green and they point outwards on the top and inwards on the bottom. He has turquoise eyes, but the eyes are slightly slanted, following the eyebrows. There is a black thickish line that goes around his eyes and a smaller line in between his 2 eyes, making it look like glasses. The nose is small and round, and the mouth is a smile with a slight fold on the bottom.
Clothes[]
Neon Green Inkling Boy wears a grayish-black T-Shirt and grayish-black shorts with black and green leggings underneath. The leggings appear to be a bit small for him, as it shows a bit of his skin above the shoes. The shirt has a grey logo and some gray writing. There is also a pink chip on the bottom side of the shirt. He also wears black and yellow gloves that don’t show his fingers and has white writing on eat glove. He has yellow shoes with a black sole and pink and black shoelaces. On the bottom of the black soles, there are pink grips that resemble suctions. There is also a backpack that Neon Green Inkling Boy wears and it was green and black straps. It ties to a thermos of neon green slimy goo and it has a clear lid and clear center. The bottom and top is black. In the middle, there is a black measurement line and a red arrow pointing at the top.
Stand and Others[]
Neon Green Inkling Boy holds a neon green and pink gun in his right hand. The gun appears to be a water bottle crafted into a handcrafted gun. The screw at the back and the ties that hold the gun together are pink. The handle that he holds is purple. The base and til of the gun is neon green. There is a part in front of the handle that is also neon green. The stand is grayish-black and it has a puddle of neon green inky slime. Neon Green Inkling Boy’s right foot is stepping on a small mountain of neon green slime. There are 3 separate tentacles of slime behind his right foot. 2 medium, and 1 small. 2 of them go off the stand while the other medium one goes inwards, almost touching his thermos. Behind his left foot, there are 2 small circles of slime. One is medium and one is tiny. The medium one is almost off the stand. In all of the amiibo from the Splatoon series, they all have grayish-black stands with goo based on their color, so the stand is basically just plain grayish-black but with that character’s goo.
Trivia[]
