Leap back the clock, Drossel style

November 1, 2009 by ishokuosero

"Hmm, it's leap back time again?"

Drossel’s list of doom suggests that she turn back her clock, but I think she got the entirely wrong idea about it.

Double figure post tonight after getting back my computer from a friend’s house. He fixed it for me since it fried last week, and I hadn’t been able to post when I wanted to. oTL

Either way, tonight’s post features the Vocaloid ‘twins’ Rin and Len!

Little too much fun with editing

Little too much fun with editing

Here it is, finally another figure review by me. This time with my brand new light tent setup, and one of my new favorite figures, Lala. Lots of obvious first time light tent images after the jump.

For now though, here’s some of the stuff that you might see in reviews within the next week or so~ Read the rest of this entry »

Yep, it’s that time of year again. Not the holidays, exactly… but the time when I end up with new shelving. This is the third year in a row, and it’s showing no signs of stopping… it’s becoming a tradition!

Koto’s 1/8 Saber

Quick post today from a quick shoot. It’s a bit chilly outside, and since I still have some achey symptoms from my cold, it wasn’t a good idea to be out too long. However, I wanted to get at least one photoshoot of one of my figures before the flowers out front wilted. I chose Koto’s 1/8 Saber, because I love her pose and I thought it and her outfit would be the perfect match for the colourful flowers.

I’ve been wanting to try papercraft for a long time now, but I hadn’t gotten around to it due to both being lazy and also constantly doing other things. I’ve had a cold for the past couple days and was at home all day today, so I figured since the sun had already gone down (and I shouldn’t be outside where my allergies can act up on top of being sick ), I would try it tonight.

Venturing into non-figure anime merch

September 21, 2009 by ishokuosero

plushiessept21

Anime merchendise outside of just the figures – it happens to a lot of people eventually. After seeing tons of other merch, I actually quickly ventured into quite a bit of it all at once, getting everything from magazines, to plush, to pillowcases (the three in the background there are from an artist at Acen this year who was selling all sorts of cool things – those included ), to quite a bit of other stuff. Hit the jump to read on ->
