Well, that looks really good now. I really like these figures with tattoos , they seem quite hard to make , even with decals. Rarely any female figure pvcs with tattoos.

Impressive.

Reckon her kneeling down just adds more contrast & dimension when displayed with standing ones, preferably same scale as Medusa's Gaze of cos (I noticed Golden Lover is mentioned as 8.25" compared to Medusa's 11.80", so hope they display well together)

Thanks for the additional info on Mr Yazawa too, I'm now officially high with anticipation for Dancer Of Pain
Hey guys! Any comments on Monica's Ax and Golden lover? They will come out soon in Nov.

RE: TOI

Unfortunately, she is a bit smaller than Medusa in scale. 6" as she is crouching. So, she would be appx 9" if she were standing.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Great photos!
I will definitely buy her even if she is in PVC.
Would it be something possible to make these beautiful statues in resin? I'm just curious...

So she'll be roughly "Golden lover"'s size (at 1:8~1:7.5 scale), hence the similar price.

So this is the final product mould? Any more improvements? As fine as it is, the head shape and size could still be improve upon to be more like L. Royo's painting.

Take, will TOI be distributed through Sideshow as well, or only through Yamato?

Dear Beast. I hear you. But we have done as much as we could and delay has been beyond our imagination.
SO, to answer to your q. I 'd say No. No more improvement.
I see the proportion may be a bit off. The head size is bigger than it shoudl be, but for this 9" scale, figure with all the details, if we had made it smaller, the details must have been hindered.
I hope you could forgive us.
But the biggest challenge was at somewhere else. Japanese sculptors in general do not know Latin faces.
At first, it looked like Bali dancer in Indonesia as we kept telling him she was not Anglo woman.
It went thro. at least 7 revisions. No difference between Megan Fox and Sofia Vergara.
