Glorious Halloween Remi

It seems my shipment from Amiami regarding Remilia hasn’t arrived yet. Change of plans, change of plans. Nevertheless I was insistent on pairing up the Halloween idea with Remi.

Mischievous grin you've got there.

It’s my first time carving a pumpkin, actually.

Running from the Rain

Sunday’s haul

I recall that episode of Arthur where the Read family was going on a beach trip, but it rained out for a couple of days.

I'm a purveyor of art too. Experimental installation and participatory, if you know what I mean.

Actar, “accurate representation”,Touhou. A list and more.

Very accurate character representation! Compare below.

The release of figma Reimu makes me feel two things: anticipation, and unease.  I’m feeling anticipation because it’s an accessible figure for reasonably high quality and the fun accessories, and unease because of an upcoming precedent that would happen because of it’s upcoming release. 

Early October Status

I’ve been pulling all-nighters the entire week, trying to meet school deadlines;  I’m under a lot of work for drawing and painting. Since I draw and paint slower than frozen molasses, the work takes up a lot of time and it’s only possible for me to only do 2 pieces a day before it almost hits midnight.

My arms are hurting pretty bad as well, must be carrying that heavy bag full of tools, paper, sketchpads and boards I need.

Quickie: Nuit Blanche, rain photos, etc

Just a quick heads-up on what’s to come:

• Scotiabank Nuit Blanche 2009 report
• Photos from shooting in the rain
• A lookback at the hiatus
• More shooting in the rain
• A bunch of Stradale photos
• Yet another round of shooting in the rain

It’s a ton of photos to deal with.

In the meantime, I’m swamped week in-week out with drawings, drawings, drawings to do. At least, it’s good training.

Nendo Crossplay

I know, I’m very-very late in doing this guest post. VERY late I know(I’m sowwy!!!). I kept forgetting and the when I remembered I couldn’t think of anything to do one on…. but I can now. And you can probably guess what by the title lol. But before that, a little introduction. I’m Meimi132. A 19 year old uni student. Live in the UK. Am doing a guest post here, my own blog is here, called Meimi132 no Itonami, I think it roughly translates as ‘The life of Meimi132′ or something like it. It basically covers all the stuff I love. Otaku culture; anime, manga, figures etc, plus tv, movies, actors I like. Pretty much anything and everything that interests me, even if it doesn’t interest the reader. But I do try to be kind lol, not like I write gushing lovey-dovey posts about Tennant every week lol. Only did that when I saw him live in Hamlet and Loves Labours Lost lol. SOOOO wanna see him in real life again…. I was in the front row for LLL… gawd that was good….*sigh* Ok, see, now I’m gushing lol. Must control oneself. Onto stuff you’re guaranteed to like!!!!

Here we start with Hatsune Miku. All cute looking right? But what happens when....

You wanna see the freakish results? Well, I say freakish…. more like :squeeee: cute lol.

New Plamoo video with Werkstra and Valona

Coincidentally, the weekend of Comiket was basically the weekend for the Obon Festival back in Japan! Plamoo makes a debut for Valona and Werkstra in this video.

scratchbuild gun revision and progress

Thought I was gonna hurl while working on this.

I’m not pleased with the accuracy gaffes I’ve pulled with that tiny wad of styrene, so I’ve tried to do it again, but in a more accurate way using a lot of guide lines.

Sculpting teaser, part one

Just so you know, it’s 0.5mm sheet styrene I used. As for the trigger area, I kind of got lucky where the drill bits hit, and carved out the rest with an x-acto knife.

For those in the know,
