Been lacking updates recently. What have I been doing lately? Well, still working on my figurine, only at a slower pace. At the sanding and finishing stage now, which is pretty boring. Been watching a few animes too, like Strike Witches, Bleach and To Love Ru.Anyway, let's see some pictures of my WIP. One of the things that I've been working on are Faye's pair of boots. Sculpted them and here's

Been lacking update on my blog lately. But I'm still working on my sculpture. Only recently I've took less photos. Kinda forgot to take them when I'm working on the figurine. So here are a few more photos I took. This part is about some carvings that I've done.First, I was doing the crease on the dress. This part is on the area near the chest. This is the initial stage without any crease on it

Just a short update for today. Added the vertical lace on the dress. Still a rough pattern.I have yet to decide the final pattern on the lace. Thinking of drilling some holes on it to make a flower pattern.For this part, I've also tried playing with different backgrounds and editing the colour and levels in Photoshop to experiment with different effects.First is a white background:And this is a

As mentioned before, I will redo the skirt especially the pleat because it didn't look natural enough. This part was a pain to do. Took me like 4 hours to get the right pleat. Even though it's tedious, I must say I've learn a lot from it. Doing folds and pleats is really another challenging part of figure sculpting.Well, here's how the skirt looked like before. Stiff and doesn't look like fabric,

Recently I'm watching Ikkitousen Great Guardians. I haven't really finished watching this series. But thought I'll write something about it here (a discussion, maybe?).First of all, one character who seems different in Great Guardians is Kanu. As I remembered, she was a cool and hard-to-get lady before. But in Great Guardians, she start being desperate for Ryuubi. And she fantasizes, about

Another update of my sculpting.This time, I did some sawing on the figure to break them up for easier sculpting. And oh, sawing is actually fun! Lots of dust, but cutting off the parts makes it look more like a garage kit that is waiting to be built :).Let's look at some photos:I've started to resculpt the finger with putty, which was broken by me before. The putty is too liquid and it's a tricky

Apart from sculpting, I also love to draw comics. Today, I will take a break from anime figures and post some manga created by me nearly a year ago (at the start of this year, to be exact).I remember that I created a rough storyline and some characters for this manga. It's been ongoing for some time but I had to stop for some time because of busy life. The manga was then stacked at the bottom of

Some more updates today. Today's progress is mainly on her skirt. Trimmed a few milimeters off her skirt to make it shorter. Had to carve the pleats at certain places to clear up the mess done when putting together the clay. So, some photo updates:A few shots of her in her skirt:Hmmmm, maybe the skirt will need to be shortened some more. But that's for the next update. And when I was doing the

Today has been pretty busy but luckily I manage to find some time to post this short update.I've made the pleats for her skirt yesterday. After I finished adding the pleats, I found that the whole skirt is too long compared to what I intended. That means more work is needed to shorten the skirt.

Finally, I've decided the name of the anime girl that I'm currently sculpting.Her name is:Faye

Part 3 of this WIP is up!For this part, I did a major change to her pose because I found the pose that I had was not natural and a little boring. I cut her body into two parts using a craft saw. Then I twisted her upper body a little to the right and arched it backwards. This make her pose more energetic and lively.This is what I mean:Same girl, new pose:This part of modification took me about 3

Continue with my sculpting. Left off after cleaning up the fringe in the previous post.This time, I carved the face and eye sockets and drew in the eyes to get a rough idea of how the expression should look like. Here goes:Not very happy with what I have. Wanted a cheerful smiling expression but somehow she looks lost/innocent/puzzled now......Then, I tried bring up the mouth a little closer to

Finally set up a blog to display my work. Here is my second try at sculpting(the first one was stopped because I chose a wrong type of clay). This character is a random anime-style girl created by me.These are the main tools that I use in my work. Just some basic sculpting tools plus a toothpick:And a sketch I made before starting the sculpture. I've used some references from the internet in

Finally I have a blog to share my art works.I like anime and just started making my first anime figurine a few months ago. Currently, I have a female anime figurine WIP. Still practising my sculpting. It is a lot of fun and I wish to share the joy with everyone.I also occasionally draw comics and build garage kits. So check back often and enjoy your visits on my blog.
