Ara? Who’s this shorty? *gets beaten up* x_x
Finally my Taiga (from Toradora!) Mini Dollfie dream is completed! ^^;/ To see some progress for painting the head you can check out this entry - Painting a 3D head on my art blog.:) This entry here is mostly for the completed doll:)
Taiga is glad that her body finally was delivered today:P But as I found out with some online research,her knee and feet are kinda floppy,making it difficult for her to stand on her own ^^;I managed to balance her for a moment tho,and she looks very short and tiny:P I purchased a 2nd hand wig and trimmed the bangs a bit to make it closer to Taiga’s hair style. But my husband felt that her hair colour probably could be a bit darker still?
Borrowed the little tiger from a Taiga figure:3 Taiga also borrowed the armchair made from Matin sensei‘s kit:3 Her clothes and shoes are actually also borrowed since I don’t have time to make new ones yet ^^;I think the top fits Narae,skirt was for a Bee-A body and shoes probably Bee-A as well ^^;
Rawr!
Leaning on the mirror:P
Palm top tiger ^o^
Nyron?
Love her attitude:P
Okay maybe not so much:P
Standing short:P
After all that posing,have to bribe her with something yummy:P
Nyaaaaaaaaaaa! Where’s my spoon?!
If you’re interested in the Mini Dollfie Dream body,there’s a discussion about the “floppy knee issue”going on at my post on figure.fm here,you can find out a bit more information if you read Chibichibiusa’s comments:)
Bonus,Mirin picture ;P

huhu how cute she is and lol @ lightningsabre’s “no L bust for this little lady?”XDD
[Reply]
@yamada,err no. Unless you want her hair put up as big round things…lol.
@chun –You have earned a new achievement XD. ( though frankly,if taiga has animetric eyes or even better,it will be hard to keep away from looking into the eyes:D.
Like this one in the middle:p

Thanks! I feel that she still can be better but I’ll leave it for now ^^;

Wow,she’s incredibly cute! You did an excellent job with the face painting and the hair seems to be a great match ^^
I’m so jealous xD I still haven’t made the plunge with Dollfies…

wooo!!! She is done! Taiga is amazing ^o^/ The hair color looks pretty good to me and her bangs are very close to the character. Hope to see more of the Tenori Tiger! Great job ^^

Thanks! I am glad you think so:) I think in most of her artwork her eyes (optical ones:P) are bigger ^^;sanding down her lips/nose took a bit longer than expected too ^^;but it was a good experience ^^
[Reply]
woooo!! Taiga-chan XD! How big is mini-dollfie?
now you need to make Ryuji for her so she won’t feel lonely XD!

Oooh she’s about 38 cm tall apparently ^^ And naw no Ryuji for her mwahahhaha:P

She looks so cute! I think this is the only head with painted eyes (rather than eyeholes and installed eyeballs) that I’ve actually really liked. I think the fact that the eyes are sculpted in makes the biggest difference;something about the slight inset and curvature makes her face seem that much more alive compared to a flatter head.
Bummer to hear the floppy knees are MDD-body endemic.:( If I ever decide to get an MDD,though,now I know I need to get those kips too.
And lastly,are those new eyes for Mirin? They look bluer than previous pictures.

Thank you:) I have heard differing input about her lol! I’m hoping I can find other type of material to be a replacement for the kips ^^;And yes! I need to take better pix of her new eyes ^^!
