A beautiful scale figure of Hatsune Miku based on the winning illustration of the Hatsune Miku 10th Anniversary Illustration Contest! The winning entry was Pomu's "Reaching Ever Higher", which has now been transformed into a gorgeous figure at the hands of the esteemed sculptor, Takayuki Kawahara!
Each and every detail of the figure has been meticulously to faithfully capture the theme of the original illustration - the past and future of Hatsune Miku. Her unique dress, the accessories that adorn her hair and the microphone stand at her fingertips all incorporate motifs from the numerous songs Hatsune Miku has sung in the past.
Her hair has been sculpted with translucent sections which not only create an ethereal appearance but also bring out the perfect hue. The charming expression on her face has also been perfected in figure form, filled with hope for the future to match the title of the illustration - "Reaching Ever Higher". This work of art challenges the limitations of what is possible for the world of figures, and can truly be called a masterpiece among Hatsune Miku figures! Be sure to add her to your collection.
This figure is based on the winning illustration by Pomu in the "Hatsune Miku 10th Anniversary Illustration Contest, so I set out to capture as much of the atmosphere of the original illustration as I could in the sculpting.
The most difficult thing about sculpting the figure was probably gathering every piece together to make a well-balanced appearance from every angle. When transforming the illustration from the second to the third dimension, elements of the figure like her hair, her skirt and the large ribbon tended to look quite scattered. It took a lot of readjustment of each part to really capture the ethereal aura of the original illustration.
As for the paintwork, the original illustration features a soft, complex color palette that took quite a bit of thought to figure out how to properly recreate. While referencing the illustration, I carefully adjusted colors to improve the look of the figure. In a figure with a lot of fine detail, I took particular care to ensure the complexity of the colors without making it appear disjointed.
With motifs from various songs incorporated into every aspect, I hope you can enjoy looking back at 10 years of Hatsune Miku history with this figure.
Notable Works: "Sakura Kinomoto: Stars Bless You", "Hatsune Miku: 10th Anniversary Ver."
Originally I had thought that if I were making an illustration for a figure, I want to create something special that captures the important milestone that is the 10th anniversary. So, my illustration focused on everything that incorporates the past and future of Hatsune Miku.
When I saw the figure for the first time, I really felt like everyone involved in making it really loves Hatsune Miku. So I believe this figure, overflowing with love from the creators, is truly incredible.
I am very proud to have been a part of the making of this figure. Thank you so much for selecting my illustration.
