Miaka Yuuki
For some reason it's actually difficult to find several versions and different angles of official or fanart of her school uniform with or without the jacket. I know she's not very popular with most people but the hatred is so strong! XD Anyhoo, I'm doing her as a request for Burrito breath who might be lurking around right now. I was planning to do her Suzaku ceremonial gown too but I'm not sure what kind of material would pull off the transparent lace effect. O_o

Ibuki from Street Fighter
I just really love the look of this character, not to mention that she's badass! The first problem that I already know I'm going to have to deal with is the slits on her pants and her bare feet combined with the puffy pants. I'm sure I can use the Momiji pants tutorial but I'm not sure if the best way to do her is full body or two piece. O_o I'm sure if I ever solve the problem I can use the same trick on an Inuyasha custom. T_T

Hsien-Ko / Lei-lei from DarkStalkers
I absolutely LOVE Hsien-ko and this is probably a good opportunity to go fan girly mode on her XD. Anyhoo, I'm not really sure what kind of material best suites the bulky sleeves and blades but I know it'll probably involve a lot of putty T_T. I'd really appreciate some guidance on the best type of material to be able to shape it because I want to get away from using moldes or make-your-own-plastic-pinky parts because there really is no place for that where I'm residing at the moment. T_T. I can only keep it to a minimum of molding clay or putty type material. I think the slit skirt from chun-li or Mai figure might work for her though her skirt seems a bit more rounded than a straight piece of cloth.

These are the only pinkies I can think of that I'll be working on in the future but if you have someone on the list, or ideas on how to produce the parts, thoughts would be very much appreciated ^^.

I was really aiming for male pinkies but I can't really think of any that I like right now except maybe Kyo from Fruits Basket (Since he's my best friend's  favorite character) and InuYasha.

Some pictures for Miaka <_<















I just bought model enamel paint but for some reason it won't stick properly. It just sticks like gunk to the pinky's plastic surface. T_T. Is there a base coat that I need to apply first before I can use enamel paint? Do I need to use a spray in order to get a smooth finish?

I used regular ceramic paint for Rider's parts and it came out just fine but I had to seal it with varnish so that it wouldn't rub off and get chalky when it dried and got old.[/img]

She looks great so far!    I can't wait to see the end result.  If you need more pics of her school uniform, I could try and take some screencaps for you

Wow! She looks great so far. I can't wait to see more.

Ooh ooh, finish her soon. I can't wait to see the finished result.

Shame about the pics. I didn't know people hated Miaka a lot. I don't.  

Looks awesome! I can't wait to see her finished!

Miaka is done! I had to strip the paint several times since it was my first time using MrWhite Base Paint and I had to stop myself several times from poking it to remove the bubbles only to make it worse T_T To make it worse, Mr Clear would do something similar and it would end up looking like a blemish on the surface but somehow in the end, it all looks ok. And so I present pinky Miaka ^^.















I couldn't make a blue ribbon for Miaka just like her original uniform since there were no pinky ribbons available in blue and I didn't have the right tools to actually paint it.
