Illustration Revelation The Ghost Bride (fuzichoco Art Book Saigenkyo)

A world of beautiful colors like a fantastic illusion.

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here!

Today I’ll be taking a look at…

Illustration Revelation The Ghost Bride

The second figure in the Illustration Revelation series is a figure recreation fuzichoco’s illustration “The Ghost Bride” used as the main visual for her 2020 exhibition “Saigenkyo”. The illustration, featuring a beautiful bride from realm beyond our own dressed in a luxurious kimono and surrounded by tanmono fabric draped from a tree, has been carefully captured in figure form. With an incredible level of detail from top to bottom, we invite you to view and enjoy this awe-inspiring figure from every angle.

fuzichoco’s original illustration has been perfectly captured in figure form!

The pattern on her kimono is sculpted, giving it an absolutely gorgeous appearance!

▲ Even areas that you can’t normally see, like the obi belt tied at her back, have been faithfully created in figure form.

Even the scenery surrounding her hasn’t been forgotten. The tanmono fabric and lanterns hanging from the cherry blossom tree behind her have all been recreated.

▲ The figure captures the whole scene from the illustration!

This item is the second in a Good Smile Company’s “Illustration Revelation” figure series.

The new Illustration Revelation figure series revolves around the three-dimensional transformation of two-dimensional illustrations, with the fine details and captivating atmosphere of the works of talented illustrators reconstructed in 3D form by skilled sculptors, thus taking the charm and uniqueness of such original artworks to brand new heights. Enjoy a new hobby experience that provides a glimpse at the very core of figure creation with stunning 3D transformations of 2D art.

Let’s get back to this figure!

This figure has been produced as a non-scale figure, but in order to full capture the original illustration in 3D, the figure is an astounding 370mm in height.

▲ Here it is next to an iPhone 7 Plus for reference!

Even parts that can’t be seen from the front angle have all been created in spectacular detail, so be sure to take a look from all angles when you take her home!

(The support pillars of the bridge and tanmono fabrics draped over it all extend down far below the figure itself, creating an incredible overall atmosphere and sense of space!)

▲ Take a look at the blue gradation on the bottom of her kimono and on the cherry blossoms near the bottom of the figure! This gradation represents the reflection of the blue water beneath.

I generally don’t take photos of figures from the bottom angle, but I also want to show you how the silhouettes of the cherry blossoms above are visible through her translucent umbrella! This is one of my favorite shots.

▲ The biggest advantage of figures is being able to enjoy them from all 360 degrees!

One more thing!

Her wataboshi hat created with transparent parts can be removed, allowing you to display her with it on or off!

▲ The Ghost Bride’s charm has been newly recreated in incredible 3D form. Be sure to add her to your collection!

Sakura Kinomoto: Always Together ~Pinky Promise~ (Cardcaptor Sakura)

A promise that continues on into the future.

Hello everyone!! Kahotan here! (@gsc_kahotan)

Today I’ll be taking a look at…

Sakura Kinomoto: Always Together ~Pinky Promise~

This scale figure has been created as part of a collaboration project between CLAMP and Good Smile Company in celebration of CLAMP’s 30th Anniversary and Good Smile Company’s 20th Anniversary. The figure is based on an illustration specially drawn by CLAMP featuring Sakura Kinomoto from the manga series “Cardcaptor Sakura”, which is celebrating its own 25th Anniversary. Sakura’s beautiful dress featuring plenty of frills and pearl decorations, her gorgeous flower bouquet and lovely smiling face have all been faithfully recreated, capturing the charm of the original illustration. Be sure to add this masterpiece commemorative figure to your collection.

This special Good Smile Company 20th Anniversary commemorative figure is based on a special illustration by CLAMP, who is celebrating their own 30th Anniversary this year!

The figure’s clock that serves as a reminder of the time spent together, her lively flower bouquet, gorgeous frill and pearl adorned outfit and the freesia flowers extending into the sky…

All of these motifs have been brought together into one spectacular scale figure, with even parts not visible in the original illustration faithfully created in immaculate detail.

▲Just take a look at her dynamically flowing skirt and the freesia decorations!

The way the details of the original illustration have been captured in figure form is quite incredible, but the way these details are interpreted in 3D space is another overall highlight, and one entirely unique to the figure medium.

For example, I want you to take a look at her bouquet and the freesia on the base of the figure!

Both of these flower features of the figure are beautifully drawn in the original illustration, but in figure form, the freesia flowers have been recreated with translucent parts and glasslike paintwork, adding another layer of detail to the figure!

The freesia works to connect the large, heavy base and Sakura’s delicate, lightweight dress, giving the figure an even more gorgeous appearance.

This figure was created as a hand-sculpted and 3D-sculpted hybrid.

Sakura herself and her dress were both sculpted by hand, while the base, freesia, bouquet, crown, clock frame and the decorations of her outfit were all created with 3D sculpting software.

The hand-sculpted portions were handled by Takayuki Kawahara, while the production of the 3D sculpted sections was directed by Good Smile Company production team member Keroriso.

△Takayuki Kawahara also helped create Sakura Kinomoto: Stars Bless You!

The team made all kinds of minute adjustments to the figure throughout the production process.

A great deal of attention and care was required to bring out the strengths of this hybrid production process and make the figure look as beautiful as possible, but we are very happy to be able to present it to the world!

This product is a culmination of various important anniversaries, and one that showcases Good Smile Company’s level of skill and technical prowess.

Up until now and from here on forevermore, we hope our figures will always be close to help you enjoy your favorite characters and series.

This wish has been incorporated into the name of this figure.

We hope you add her to your collection!
