*o* Oh, my!!! I always wanted one of these! I think you did a great job painting. It looks just like it does in the anime. There's tons of detail just in the colours. I think it's beautiful. The only thing I've been noticing in your works is that you can see a rough texture in the material used. I think a way to improve your works is to buy a little bit of the material and experiment with different sorts of paints. The gold paint has been getting to me, it looks... Fake. I recommend looking at something gold you own and try comparing the colours. Overall, I think you did a fantastic job on this. I'll be checking out your Etsy shop later!~

The Gold does look better in person, and I have tried several gold paints. Its more the material then the paint that is the problem. This Particular 3d sculpt came out super super layered in look, so getting it all smooth for a decent paint coat was quite hard. I have a metallic yellow I am starting to use, it's not necessarily a "gold" But it fits the colors of the anime better.

Ohmigosh it's perfect !!! I wanted to try 3D printing so badly when I found out about it if only it wasn't sooooo expensive U_U For now I gotta stick to regular sculpting, unfortunatelly *_* I dream of a day when 3D printing is widespread and affordable !!! I'm sure such day will come, same as cellphones and Internet dropped on price

unconventionalsenshi In reply to silverbeam [2012-03-11 22:42:59 +0000 UTC]

well yes, but it's still an option for smaller objects still Making something more to scale (like bigger figures for example) still would use too much material and raise the cost a lot

silverbeam In reply to moonlytmiko [2012-03-08 17:52:27 +0000 UTC]

Its not quite hand made but I did sculpt it. I made a 3D digital model then sent it to special printers to remake the model. It's a nylon plastic, painted by me.

ahh.. nice.. is it for sale? if it is, much would u sell it just in case?
its also nice if u would add varnish on it to make it shiny..^_^
1st i thought its made from polymer clay..or ..i forgot whats it called..the same they use for figurines.. but its relly nice and very well made!

silverbeam In reply to moonlytmiko [2012-03-08 21:28:34 +0000 UTC]

Misheru-Kuro [2012-03-07 23:16:26 +0000 UTC]

I love that you made this! Woot. The shape and detailing is right on. For improvement I'd say try and find a glossier paint to help hide the natural texture of the plastic, and go with a brighter gold or a yellow. It looks beautiful but it feels more ren-fair then girly super hero with the current paint job. <3 keep at it Nee-chan you're awesome.

i'm fat too, but that doesn't mean i wouldn't cosplay in a heartbeat. i've seen cosplays of fat girls, and not all of them are bad. you don't have to be a supermodel to cosplay.
