After I saw many Fg-site member show thier Garage Kit 1/12 body, so I made up my mind to make my own 1/12 body.

I used Revoltech Alice's body, upper arm and upper leg, Figma Fate Movie 1 st's forearm and Figma Nozomi (sekirara)'s foreleg and upper leg to make my.

I used Epoxy Resin that more expensive than normal resin, this made resin body's surface nearly the original piece, more soft and elastic than normal resin.

The biggest problem is this resin pieces always have tiny void, so it need to use putty and epoxy putty to close it and need coloring. In Japan I see many garage kit nowadays become color resin, I curious how they made it without void.

Update leg Parts

I choose Alice's upper leg and Figma Nozomi (sekirara)'s leg to make silicone mold.

I grind some of alice upper leg off to make it has the same size as shinki and put plastic stick in upper part like shinki legs so I can switch leg with shinki

It's nearly finish so I put Figma Fate's head to check scale

Image

The body has same small shinki size, but it bigger than Figma child body

I made 2 type hip joint to check which type is better. The first one need to pull leg out to post some action, and it is cheaper than 2nd one. The 2nd one is fit and don't need to pull leg out to post action, but it may have scratch from post action and it has higher cost than 1st one

For now I just wait for joint that I order, after that I will start coloring
