Black & White
Well it's been a while since I last wrote something on my blog, but hey, moving out to Lille and everything is so exciting! There's so much to do here that time flies without me realizing it.
Here are some pics of my "black & white" figure collection ; these belong to my favorite ones, especially Momohime by Alter who won the 2011 Best Figure Award:
Momohime is so lovely that you can hardly take a bad pic of her. Obviouly I took her with me to Lille to decorate my appartment !
Velvet is one of the reason I fell for buying gathering figures: her eyes, her outfit... Evreything in her is charming, except for her being way too skinny.
The portly Saber Lily is one of best Goodsmile creation, picturing her in a elegant yet dynamic pose.
Sakura has an element of old world charm about it, her gentle stare has to do a lot with it.
Raquel, a Vispo original creation, and the first gathering I bought. Looks like she's staring at Velvet's chest haha...
Here's Yami-chan, a blonde-haired devilish girl who can transform her left hand into a sharp blade.

And finally, the super cute Melissa in her "nendoroized" form, which makes het even more cuter!
I love the black & white atmopshere, it makes the pics somehow nostalgic. Hum, I really need to invest in a mini-studio so as to do photoshoots in good conditions... Well, I'll think about it when I come back to Paris! :D

Yagyu Jubei - Hyakka Ryoran [Alter]
Since my competitive exams are over, at least the written ones though, I can go back to doing photshoots and writing reviews, yay!
Here's Yagyu Jubei by Alter, in my opinion one of the 2009 best 1/8 scaled figure with BRS and Saber Lily.
Jubei is a blue-eyed red-haired samourai girl from the series Hyakka Ryoran, which I don't know anything, except for having a rather nice character-design.
Her blue eyes are really pretty and she's wearing a slight red make-up on them that fits perfectly her hair color.
The details of the white ropes on her back is stunning: it does look so realistic!
Ropes on her hair... unexpectedly a nice touch, with a lovely red pearl.
Ropes on her thighs, ropes on her katana, ropes everywhere!
Is that supposed to be a tongue? guess so, since the artwork Jubei comes from represents her sticking out her tongue. :o

Here's an official overall pic of Jubei, since I tend to prefer taking close-up shots (taking macro pics is so much fun, yay).
Yagyu Jubei is definitely a must-have, and if you don't own her already, now's your chance since she's getting a re-run by next August!

Black ★ Rock Shooter [GSC]
Today I was lent a Canon Ixus with a nice macro system that I wanted to try on one of my favorite figure: Black ★ Rock Shooter, the very 1st and only worthy version for me.
