No flowers, no diamonds, no expensive gift this year for my girlfriend on her birthday. Cuz she already have all those before. So I need to do something extra special to give her the surprise. Also becuz I am broke. =P This is the 3rd month in the anniversary-christmas-birthday-valentine-combo. I planned to make this clay model of a character from one of her favourite anime. So last month I bought a packet of DAS modeling clay from Art Friend. But only started making the model last week. =p Afterall, it wasn't that difficult to model a lump of clay. Wahahaha.
Update: Added this picture of the clay used, cuz a friend of mine (you-know-who-you-are) wants to make some lovely clay ornaments for his girlfriend as V-Day gifts)!
Anyway, below is a pictures of the model. The front before painting,
The back, notice the tail? ;Op
After painting the model,
The painted model with the screenshot from the character in anime. I used it as a reference for modeling.
And finally, my dear with the finished product!
Eh, so hopefully by now, you know what is the character I made for her? Or are you thinking, "What this that lump of black black thing?" -faints-
If you do watch anime or read manga, you should seen it before bah. Heh heh. Its Mokona Modoki from xxxHOLiC.
From the manga,
and anime,
Now that you know what it is, you must probably also be thinking, "Why do you actually waste your time to do it, when you can easily buy the figurines or plush Mokona, which look and feel much nicer?". By the way, there is also the white Mokona from the Tsubasa Chronicles.
Well, the reason is I made it with my heart and hands. Sincere enough or not? Heh heh.
We had celebration together with some friends at Ramen Ramen. I had recommended it in a post last year. They have a new outlet at the Atrium beside Plaza Singapura. The ramen was still delicious, but the side orders were only so-so.

Happy Birthday dear! Hope Mokona will keep you happy and bring you good luck this year! Time to crack my brain on the gift for the final month of the combo. 哎呦哎呦喔喔!
