Shigure Asa 1/8 by Alter

Saku

– April 15, 2009Posted in: Figure

It was a long weekend in Toronto since we had a Good Friday so it’s a day off for majority of people. Not only that, it happened to be having nice and sunny weather in Toronto. It’s little bit windy though but there is no need for multi layers of clothing.

Asa-senpai and I decided to go for a date and we went to a well-known spot for tourism called Harbour Front. Asa-senpai was quite a klutz in the morning because she forgot that there is no school due to public holiday. Too lazy to change, she went on a date with a school uniform. Seeing Asa-senpai in a school uniform, I couldn’t complain, could I ? ^^.

Even when she is on a date, she will never forget to bring her little doll on her bag.

“Such a nice weather today, isn’ it?” She said.

“Lets go over there to the park” as she dragged me to go with her to the nearest park.

“Naughty wind…… you saw it, didn’t you ?” she asked. I was speechless and tried to find some excuses but no luck. At the same time, I thanked the wind for this rare chance ^^.

I was lost in my thought and said to myself how great it would be to see Asa-senpai in bikini.

“Look at the seagulls”

“I am so excited. This is my first time seeing a CN Tower. It’s so high” She said as she was admiring the CN Tower. Too bad I was not as excited as she was since I saw it too many times and I always thought, it’s just a tower ^^;;

I can never doubt alter’s quality. The frilly skirt looks amazing and not to mention the little doll on her school bag. As someone who loves the series, her uniform definitely looks like the one in the anime. A perfect match, I would say and her face is definitely pretty close to the real Asa so I think Alter has done a really good job on this figure (or any other figures).

For any shuffle fans or Asa-senpai fans, I highly recommend this figure. She is definitely worth buying ^^

Didn’t know Alter made this, and I’ve never seen this figure or character before @_@

Interesting dating photoshoot there. Definitely fits very well for outdoor shooting~

Nice shoot, as expected. I guess one problem with real sunlight is that the lighting often comes out uneven, but hey, it’s still worth it.

On another note, it’s been so long since I’ve seen a Shuffle character that I’d totally forgot that I genuinely like Navel’s character designs. I guess I’d better make another trip to Danbooru…

@Rin: Yah. The ones that are little bit dark were taken under shadow >.>

@Leonia: Thanks . Any version of Asa is cute ^^

@Q: Not a generally well-known character but it’s from my favorite series, Shuffle!. If you are into Da Capo or Clannad, I think you should give Shuffle! a try ^^

@Divini Fang: Yah some were bit underexposed and can’t control the shadow either. In addition to that, it’s kinda hard to judge if a photo is good or not from my dslr display due to the sun

@ETERNAL: yah, that’s the thing with outdoor photoshoot. I think I am going to try some places without sun or under shadow or cloudy weather. I even want to try photo shoot during rainy weather.
