Yosuke's Figure Silliness; Photography is a form of art...right?
Topic Started: May 27 2011, 02:28 PM (1,752 Views)
Yosuke

It's pretty well known that I collect action figures and take pictures of them as a hobby. Of course, I'm still learning the ropes of the photography deal and trying to make my shots look better outside of my nominal conditions, and the only way to get better is constant tinkering with camera settings and practice.

So this is where you come in!

You can access my photos here on flickr, and my sig has a link to an online list of what I own. I need some more creative scenes and poses for my guys (I have a bunch in mind already and take them when I have time), but I figure it's also good to ask the people I show them for input.

Keep in mind I am limited to whoever is listened under Owned, and I will not buy a a figure specifically for your shot requests (if you wish to provide one though...). Other than that, everything is fair game.

I remember you having problems earlier with using direct flash, so what if you tried diffused light (using a light source with a cloth or something in the way)?

Also /r/ Altlene German Suplexing Shirou or whoever your current buttmonkey is. Audience watching may vary. :x

So I asked Yon where I should put up shit that I took, and he said it was okay to dump them here since they're pretty much figures too. One day, Yon and I will do a figma collab and do terribad things together.

One day.

IN THE MEANTIME, HERE IS SOME SHIT I GOT FROM AX 2011

Posted Image
YO DAWG, I HERD YOU LIEK DOGS, etc. The Command Wolf is old, but not the Busou Shinki Howling that I got from Bluefin.

Posted Image
100% SYNC DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY. On the left is a 1st wave Busou Shinki Arnval, and next to her trying to become Eva 02 is my Maochao. Maochao is <3 mostly because it's a catgirl and is way too cute in Battle Masters.

Posted Image
GODDAMMIT YOSHIKA. I got Figma Nanoha Takamachi (Movie 1st version) last year, but the Figma Miyafuji Yoshika from Strike Witches and Mirai Suenaga are new. It was actually part of a promotion they were having: Buy a Mirai and get the next Figma half off. I figured I would get Yoshika and get myself a pair of Figma groping hands.

I wish I was kidding.

Posted Image
BATTLE OF THE FATES God that was terrible. Fate Testarossa (Movie 1st Version) is also not really new, I got her around a couple of months ago at Frank and Son's. Black Rock Shooter, on the other hand, was from AX. It's also convenient how the Figma legs are actually removable so Yoshika's Striker Unit can be used by... pretty much any other Figma. I just need to be careful with the black paint, since it has a nasty habit of rubbing off on other legs.

Posted Image
Kamen Rider V3 was a SHFiguarts that I also got roughly around the same time as Figma Asuka I think, but the EX:Ride bike and Figma Miku aren't. I got the bike for a pretty good price at AX, around $15 (it usually retails for twice that, or so I've been told) and I bought Miku off of Ayane Isuzu.

Posted Image
DYNAMIC GUN POSING GO. Faiz was another SHFiguarts that I got quite a while back at the same time as Fate from earlier. The item of interest on the far left though is my 1/1 scale (yes, she really is 1/1 scale) Ichigeki Sacchu Hoihoi-san Heavyarms Nightmare Version. Unlike the others which are action figures, Hoihoi-san is more of a model kit instead, so there was some assembly required. She also kind of makes for a great Terminator.

Posted Image
Dynamic Gun Pose part deux, this time with all the other girls who wield guns.

Posted Image
Another funny thing of note: Figmas can be disassembled. which make for interesting situations like this.

Posted Image
Warning: The stunts you are about to see are done by professionals. Do not try this at home.

Posted Image
Faiz: OH SH*T, IT'S ARNVAL
Arnval: TABLESIDE, MOTHERF**KER

... Of course now, I just HAD to give them a slick new ride. Mostly because Arnval was bugging me for it.

Posted Image
As demonstrated by a lot of action figure enthusiasts, the McFarlane Toys Halo Warthog makes a great ride for your Figmas and Shinkis. Of course, the one thing I wasn't expecting though was...

Posted Image
HOIHOISAN CAN HOLD THE TURRET PROPERLY. She truly IS Heavyarms Nightmare.

Posted Image
Dammit Nanoha, why are you using Arnval's cannon.
Posted Image
Escort Duty for the Warthog. Also Howling's Grenade Launcher makes for a hilarious not-Spartan laser.
Posted Image
Another pose.
Posted Image
Posted Image
Posted Image
DRIVEBY SHOOTOUT GO

We also decided it was high time to do MOVIE NIGHT, since I haven't seen the Nanoha Movie yet.
Posted Image
DAT ASS
Posted Image
... We also had to stop at some point because Fate had a traumatic episode.
Posted Image
DAMMIT YOU TWO THE MOVIE'S NOT OVER YET - MIRAI, STOP TAKING PICTURES!
(I swear, Mirai's gonna be my Otaku Figma who always keeps taking pictures of shit along with Faiz.)
Posted Image
The movie was good though, so they had to reenact some scenes.

Posted Image
Maochao, on the other hand, was going FU*K YO COUCH and desired a bigger one. We decided to look for some furniture. Of course, me being poor as hell at this point, decided to build their room.

Pikachu_Fragger: When I got my Figmas and Shinkis I decided to google papercraft room and it just went downhill from there
HiroTsukasa: hahah
HiroTsukasa: you'll have to post a photo of the finished result
Pikachu_Fragger: I will XD


Posted Image
Posted Image
Well, I decided to start with the entertainment system and another couch. I think Howling and Mirai love it.

A few days later...

Posted Image
Hell yes, new room.
Posted Image
Oh! Who could it be!?
Posted Image
V3: Guys, I want you to meet my girlfriend, Miku...
Posted Image
This did not sit well with Faiz. Being drunk didn't help either. (The sake was Hoihoi-san's, oddly enough.)

Posted Image
... Dammit, I KNEW this was going to happen when I found Yoshika's groping hands.
Posted Image
The only proper reply. Maochao also acting as referee.

I'll probably rename the thread I guess. Let it be known I still take requests, more so since I got a bunch of new figs lately for this month....

So, uh... in the meantime, before Skull does terrible things, Mirai and V3 thought of worse things.

"The M12 FAV Warthog is the UNSC's primary ground vehicle, used for its scouting and reconnaissance capacity, or as an integral part of a mechanized infantry unit; the M12 has been a part of the UNSC's armored vehicle fleet for fifty years, and is the most recognizable vehicle in their arsenal. It is a highly mobile, all-wheel-drive, all-wheel-steering, ICE-powered (Internal combustion engine) vehicle equipped with a contuously-variable transmission."

Posted Image
"The M12 is a four-wheel all-terrain vehicle capable of going over any obstacle without difficulty; under the hood the M12's power is generated by a forward-housed low-profile liquid-cooled hydrogen-injected ICE I/C plant, coupled with an infinitely variable transmission (IVT). The hydrogen fuel is burned at very high temperature with a synthetic carbon/silicon catalyst to achieve even better fuel consumption. This hydrogen engine is the standard among all UNSC ground based vehicles, replacing fossil fuel-based engines some 400 years ago. The M12 features a Graf/Hauptman solar/saline actuator, and will convert up to twelve liters of fresh, brackish or salt water into hydrogen on the fly, detritus is compacted on board, this allows the Warthog to travel 790 kilometers or 490 miles before it needs to be refueled."

Posted Image
"The M12 is a huge, unwieldy, difficult to steer vehicle – until a user learns how to drive it properly. With proper application of the hand, or "e-brake" the M12 can actually turn on a dime. Massive disc brakes and its automatic braking systems allow the vehicle to come to a near immediate, but controlled stop should the driver be ejected, or choose to leave the vehicle. The Warthog's tires have moved away from previous inert-gas pocket inflation with equally burst-proof single unit nanotube skeletons. They provide the buoyancy and ride of gas-pocket tires, but are almost indestructible. The relatively massive tires are a joint project between Michelin-Vance and AMG."

Posted Image
"The M12's design places it into the jeep family of vehicles; it has no doors and has a total seating of two or three. The M12's description as a reconnaissance vehicle is, at best, an understatement; the M12 has both offensive and defensive capabilities. The M12 can be configured to become a troop carrier, armament carrier, ambulance, reconnaissance vehicle, or communications vehicle. All M12-based vehicles are designed to travel both on and off-road, in all weather conditions."

I - goddammit guys.

So many figurines....it must have cost a lot to acquire them all, eh? My request is if Shiro and Rin would sit down on the couch and hugging each other in a comforting embrace. Is that okay?

... So, I ordered a few things a while back.

Posted Image
My package from HLJ finally arrived!

Posted Image
YES! My two newly ordered Busou Shinkis! The one on top is Partio, a ferret-type shinki. The other one on the bottom is Pomock, a squirrel-type. Unlike my Arnval, Maochao, and Howling, these two use the updated MMS3 body, which, tl;dr, means they're sturdier and their heads don't fall off as much. These in particular also have smaller bodies, since they're using the MMS3 Small type.

Posted Image
Now to see what we-

The fuck?

THE FUCK!? HOW COULD THEY SEND ME A BOX WITHOUT THE-

"Teehee~"

...

Posted Image
... Goddammit, Pomock.
Pomock: "U mad, goshujinsama?"

Posted Image
Partio: *bonk* Stop that.
Pomock: "Awww, k."

Posted Image
I'll have them go on ADVENTURES later on after work. For now, they can lounge on top of my laptop.

start of the new year always means changing poses you haven't~

Posted Image
SRCs, misc stuff. Not bothering with Kuuga side of things since its the same barring Luka being moved to a more visible spot.

Posted Image
Shinkis and SHF precures. This shelf is the "bitch to change poses of" so I left Arnval Tranche2 and Altlene the same.

Posted Image
Heisei Rider shelf. I guess the theme is base and final forms for the most part. Plus two secondaries. Surprise guest: Gorilla candroid in the milk can

Agito shelf.

Showa shelf.
