This is a commission for a current client, who has three kits
commissioned through me, all Yokos XD She was completed mid-December
but I kept her under wraps so I could enter her in the contest. She has
a lot of pieces, some fitting issues and I had to replace a few pieces;
the barrel of the gun with the red stripes is replaced with an aluminum
rod, raised red stripes were added to barrel with aves, triangular
piece on gun magazine was very thin so it was replaced with sheet
styrene, added raised metal parts to triangular piece with epoxy glue,
trigger finger wasn't included with the kit, so I sculpted one and
attached it.
Matched colors to customers specifications. I did candy colors on the red for Lagann's hand; it was my first time
doing candy colors =D The hair has a light mist of pearl pigment
sprayed all over and a bit more concentrated to highlighted areas. The
black lines on the bikini top, hairpin, boots and belt are hand-drawn
with a sakura pigma micron in 005, though I did a wash on the gray part
of Lagann's hand. I did some distressing/drybrushing on the gun and
added some drybrushing to her hair to make the edges stand out nicely.
Finished satin on the gloves and high gloss on the boots. Base is
wood, painted black, with white flames (made using a french curve set),
then sprayed clear green over it to give the feel of the neon green
flames from the show.
Anyway, please enjoy my sixth completed GK, Flipping Yoko.
