Oh hey! I live!

Thu Aug 6, 2009, 4:49 PM
I know, I've been MIA on deviantart for almost a year now. Very few free moments when you have a family to take care of lol. Just wanted to post a few things so I don't feel too guilty.

I entered Sailor Jupiter in the county fair this year. I was planning on entering Xianghua, but she broke on delivery to the fair. Don't worry, I just have to make a few adjustments and she's good as new.

So the judges decided to give me first place on Jupiter! I was stoked to see that my hobby can do so well in a contest. Though I didn't get grand champion in the craft division, I'm still happy. I posted the ribbon and Jupiter here: [link]

I also have work in progress pics of Sakura in her nurse outfit. She's coming along well, though I'm having trouble with the stripes. I'm having to do most of the details by hand and masking off the bulk of it. It took me 3 days to get the upper half of her body done. I'm hoping that since her dress is long and mostly flat that it'll go faster. I hope to have her done before the month is out.

I also started prep work on Nakoruru and Chii. I got all the flash and extra resin bits off them and am trying to get the pieces to fit properly.

I've also been considering my next conversion. Though Sakura was originally going to be the base for an Iris figure from Megaman X4, I couldn't bring myself to alter the figure. I've considered doing either Beatrix from Final Fantasy 9 or Splash Woman from Megaman 9. Any suggestions are welcome. :)

Your figures are amazing. You make them from scratch..!?

Thanks for the comment! Rei is a "kit bash". I took an original sculpt of Rei Ayanami from Neon Genesis Evangelion and cut and shaped the figure to resemble Rei Kurosawa. The other kits are casts of resin that need to be assembled and painted, similar to model cars.
