“Previewed by Mikatan” is No More as Mikatan Announces Retirement

Custom Nendoroid Mikatan

I was in the middle of a break from my work. I know that Mikatan usually posts an article to her blog around this time, so as usual I browsed my Twitter stream to look for her tweet.

....

Let’s see ………. ((((;゜Д゜))) W-what!?
She mentioned something about farewell on her tweet!

Yes, it seems that Mikatan will not be blogging for GSC anymore. (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥`)

Mikatan Shows How to Paint A Nendoroid Expression

Mikatan posted the first part of an in-depth tutorial about how to paint a Nendoroid expression. However, since the blog post uses some images from ImageShack, a few of them are only displaying ‘frozen frog’ due to the ‘domain unregistered’ issue, thus making the tutorial a bit uncompleted. XD

Our reader Kwang put a request to repost the tutorial along with completed pics (taken from the Japanese version of the blog post) … and I thought, “Why not?” as long as it would help many Nendonesian as well.

Well then, kindly read the tutorial after the break.

Yep, this custom-made Nendoroid is the one you saw on Mikatan’s letter corner a few days ago! It turns out that she is a custom Nendoroid Petit, not a regular-sized one. Regardless, the Petit rendetion of the famous GSC blogger looks really stunning – as if it was made by GSC themselves!

Well then, without further ado, go past the break to view more pics of her. ^^

Custom-made Nendoroid Mikatan?

Custom-made Nendoroid Mikatan?

Whoa … is that a custom Nendoroid Mikatan? She looks really adorable there, along with her trusty DSLR camera, chair, kitty-slippers, and a cardboard containing the reviewed product. DO WANT! XD

Unfortunately that photo has been removed from the post for some unknown reasons – perhaps she doesn’t want you to spam her with emails to ask about it. The photo popped up in my RSS reader along with the post earlier, but it seems that the real post has been updated, sans the photo.

In any case … what do you think about the revealed Nendo-info, Nendonesian? Any thoughts about the custom Nendoroid Mikatan as well? ^^
