[advice needed]

Post by p0etiq » Wed Jul 18, 2012 11:46 am

So Tekken is my all time favorite fighting game, and Lili happens to be my favorite character. That being said, I would LOVE to be able to make a custom Shinki (or other figure) of her for my collection. My attempts for an Oorbellen have been rought, so I am looking for ideas using others Shinkis or figures.

Does anyone have any ideas they could toss my way?

Are there any cheap figures of Lili you can cannibalize a head for? If the fig's in roughly the same scale you can rig that to attach to a blank body.

That's the thing... most (I tried looking) of what I've seen for Lili comes in statue form -_-

Oh well. Thanks for the advice though ^ ^

The statues and gashapons are too far off from 1/12. You'd better of kitbashing similar looking head parts and painting or building from almost scratch.

That's why I've been trying to get a hold of Oorbellen for her head and body shape... it's sooo close =(

Oh well, lol, the search is on!

*googles to see what Lili even looks like, Tekken isnt his main game*
Hmm. IF you liked Oorbellen for her head shape, an Arnval (Not the Mk2) might work. She's got a long hair option that's similar to Orbellens and the same general face shape. You'd probably want to paint the eyes to narrow them and would need to modify the hair a bit.

Zyrdarya might work too. Her bangs match pretty well, but you'd want to lengthen her hair in the rear.

I have no idea how hard she'd be to get, but you might want to consider one of the Beatmania girls, too. http://www.konamistyle.jp/item/70254 Her head and outfit looks pretty close, but would need some modification.

Splendid! I'll look into this ^_^

Thanks again Caterwaul!

The Beatmania and Quiz Magical Academy MMSs are always avaliable at Konamistyle, just ask a proxy to get it for you.

I'd go with Zyrdaria for the face and bangs and Iroha for the body and back hair (which would need modification).
