 “Body-chan” Cedar Park, 2017

Hello!

Today I received a “Body-chan” poseable figurine for drawing. It’s pretty cool and you can pose it in so many anime-style positions. It even includes props like a laptop, cellphone, sword, gun, etc. And maybe about 10 different hands. The bummer is that a critical piece is missing: the piece that connects the support to the stand. Without it, the figure cannot be held up vertically. 😤 I’ve contacted customer support to see if I can get a replacement part, but I’m not too hopeful since it was imported from overseas and it took so long to receive in the first place. I guess I need to figure out a new way to rig it up.

I hope you had a nice day!

Just like the title says!

For tonight’s sketch, I looked at a reference photo of Koshiba Fuka 小芝風花 for the hair, but the face I drew from scratch. I’m happy with how it turned out! 😄

こんばんは。Tonight I did this little sketch. I’m satisfied but not satisfied with it. Satisfied because I think I made progress and identified a lot of things I have no idea how to do. But not satisfied because it looks a bit “off” to me. But, as the first one like this, I’m more happy than not. And I had a lot of fun sketching it!

In other news, I was informed by good ol’ WordPress that it’s been 11 years since I joined WordPress.com. I’m not exactly sure when I started using WordPress as my blogging platform, but I’ll enjoy the award nonetheless. 😀

こんばんは。Tonight’s photo is of yesterday’s sketch, but scanned and printed. I removed the hair, though, and will use this to trace and then practice different hair techniques. I need the practice, that’s for sure! 😀
