Randam's random pics

I have got two other Selene figures, but I kitbashed them. I didn't know this one. It is looking great. Where did you get your great accessories like this gargoyle?

Quality figure! lovely pics.

@GF, Sky, Dal
I'm glad that you like her. I hope that her pleather outfit will stay okay for some more time.

The "gargoyle" is part of a Batman diorama stand from Toy-Box. You might still get it at Actionfiguren-shop.com, if you are interested. You only see the head of the statue of the diorama, because the whole thing rests on an ugly cardboard box as support, which I did not want to depict

Here is just an update on my custom figure of "the Major" Motoko Kusanagi (triggered by Valentin's cool figure)...

Thanks for looking!  

This is the best way to get "triggered," Ralf. Absolutely gorgeous (both the figure and the photography)!

Beautiful figure. And really cool photos.

I know I said it in my thread. I just wanna say it here too.

It's amazing!

Very cool! she looks amazing!

That”# an absolutely beautiful Motoko. Very nicely done!

Thanks. I like your figure also very much. Actually, I was wondering where you sourced the swimsuit top for your figure? I know it must be from Jiaou Doll, but could only find sweaters and normal tops.

@Mark, Ian, Dal, Xavion
Thanks for the kind comments. I also feel that it turned out a to be striking look for her.

Actually, I payed around a little bit more with the outfit and went in the Blade Runner direction. Somewhat, I ended up with a character who is a mixture of Pris and Zhora from the original movie...

Running from the police...

I should have also added some rain effect and sprayed the figure with water, but had too little time at hand.

Thanks for looking!

Excellent work as always, Ralf!

It's same maker as Rei's and Asuka's plugsuits on taobao.

Did a google image search.... and found one on aliexpress... didn't expect it to be twice the price i paid for.

Thanks, Valentin! I will check whether I can also get such a swimsuit.

As far as I can see: A mixture of Pris (head), Zhora, both Blade Runner 1982, and Joi (raincoat and boots), from Blade Runner 2049.
Great use of the screen as background and a mirror (?) as ground.

Beautiful shots as usual, and the figure looks great! I love the rain coat, and that head is beautiful! I don't think I recognize it. Mind telling us which one it is?

And thanks for the reminder that I wanted to play with a glass floor for the reflections. That just looks fantastic!

You can get it on Ebay, too. I've been watching it for months.

Very nice Blade Runner addition. She looks awesome.

@all
Thanks for the kind words!

It is actually a piece of plexiglass with a black plate beneath it. I have not tried a real mirror yet, but I would think that the reflection could be too prominent.

Sure, I have no secrets.  The head is from the Haoyu Toys Imperial black female warrior. You can see it here at BlackopToys (at a very expensive price):

I transplanted a red hairpiece onto it (the blonde hairpice went to the "horned" headsculpt), giving it a different vibe.

Thanks for the tip on the availability of the swimsuit. I have checked Ebay, but did only find it a shops of questionable sellers. Could you maybe share the seller where you found it? Thanks!

I've been thinking the same thing. What you have done works very well -- here and in other sets.

Hi folks,
I played around with the horned head a little more. I thought that it may also work as a Fey creature similar to Disney's Maleficent. I tried a flying pose in the twilight...

Thanks for looking!

The photos (and the figure) look excellent!

That’s really cool. Very effective use of that backdrop and the lighting.

Brilliant!

Wow! Are the clouds made of illuminated cotton wool? Where did you get these fantastic wings?

Yeah your backdrop extension with the cotton balls is great. Excellent pics of a very cool figure. Still a fan of the horns!

@Bundy (Wings look like from tbleague Goddess)

Thanks, guys! I'm happy that you like the pictures.

The clouds at the bottom are indeed cotton balls placed on a plexiglas plate, illuminated from beneath with an orange light (you can see it on the last picture). The wings are from the Tbleague black Aset-Kit. They charged me an arm and a leg for them It turns out that Tbleagues' decision to make the connector pins thinner (compared to Lady Bat) rendered the pins extremely fragile. I immediately broke one connector, when the figure got out of balance, and a wing tip touched the ground plate. I could fix the damage, but the used material strength is really not sufficient to support the wings. Take care, if you manipulate them!

The cotton worked remarkably well. It also works for bath bubbles.

Wow, that photography really captures the mood! When looking at most pics, I see something. When looking at yours, I feel something.

The lighting really has that hellish heavenly atmosphere, like judgment day is coming and the heavenly hordes are about to clash with the freedom fighters of hell...or something. Beautifully done.


Summon the angels!

Wow, I love how you did those clouds! Beautifully photographed!
