Kamisato-Ayaka-Summer

[Walter2]

I've decided to start a new project: an anime figure named “Kamisato Ayaka Summer.” For those who are interested, I'll be posting progress updates again.

Im looking forward how this will turn out.

I am looking forward to seeing how it will turn out.

 

[Revell-Fan]

Wow! Will this be a bas relief or a fully "fleshed out" 3D model (pun intended )?

 

[Walter2]

It is a complete, somewhat complicated 3D model. There are four face templates, so I'm going to try modeling the eyes in 3D. Zathros suggested that once.

 

[Revell-Fan]

Do not use any tabs on this one. Glue strips only. And reinforce the innards, especially elbows, armpits and legs. And find a crate for storage and dust protection.

This is what the shoe (blue) is supposed to look like. But I'm going to make it again; there are some flaws in it. Following Revell's instructions.

 

[zathros]

I modeled the eyes in Rhino 5.0 64 and made them about 5 inches in diameter. I copied every line and segment, then color matched it. When I shrunk it down to it's tiny size, I was surprised by how well the detail look. Kind of like Photoshop, but leaving the "Flatten" command out. I felt it was to risque to ever post it.

Now you have woken my curiosity!

Corrected some spelling issues. Thanks Z.

A fresh start... These parts are a real challenge—they're complicated, so they're hard to fit; you can tell. I was about to give up, but I'm going to keep at it... Luckily, I'll be able to cover up a lot of it later with the accessories.

Lovely looking legs so....I mean. A well you know what I mean.

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

You are off to a great start. I am glad to see that you are not abandening this project. I am looking forward to seeing how it will turn out.

 

[Walter2]

That's it—I'm giving up. Parts B11 and B13 just won't fit the legs properly; they just don't line up...

I'm going to find a new project. The only option left would be to start the installation at No. 13 and work my way down...we'll see.

 

[mijob]

Oooo so sorry to hear that you have to stop with this project. It looked so promising.

 

[Walter2]

I call it “paper fever”... I just can't stop thinking about this model. I've now realized that it works better to work “from top to bottom”—the original instructions aren't always the best. Just the chest and the back left to go, then the upper body will be finished, and I'll move on to the legs.

Nice prograss I'm glad to see you didn't give up.

O and sorry for the spelling.
