While on vacation I don't have a sewing machine.... so I decided I could paint in my spare time. This is my first abstract painting. No title yet, but I do see wedding rings, the word "Love" and a lovely little island. :o) Feel free to help me out with a title for these two little 8 x 10 paintings. :o)

Jump From Paper will be a new vendor at Designer Con 2012 (Booth 201). I had to do a triple take at the images on their website, as the cartoon bags they create look like they're Photoshopped into each picture. If you're looking for a bag...I'd probably hold off if you're going to D-Con.

New figma, Nendoroid photos show up at Dengeki Festival screenshot

Earlier Good Smile Company and Max Factory teased what they would be having at the Dengeki 20th Anniversary Festival. Now that the event is here, the company is in full tweet form revealing everything they have teased and then some.

For figma figures, we're looking at Mami from Puella Magi Madoka Magica in her school uniform. A surprise reveal also shows that Sayaka will be putting on her school uniform for her figma figure, too. Okay, not really surprising. Kirito from Sword Art Online is shown and another surprise is Yuno from Hidamari Sketch x Honeycomb. Though not on display in figure form, Max Factory also displayed a sign for a figma figure of Fuyato from Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere.

The Nendoroid side of things see Asuna with Kirito from Sword Art Online. Yuno from Hidamari Sketch x Honeycomb shows up again in Nendoroid form. Also, the ladies from The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls make a set for the Nendoroid Petit series.

Is that all Good Smile Company and Max Factory has? We'll have to see as the event is still going and spans two days. So anything for you to get excited about?

The Dengeki 20th Anniversary Festival continues with more new figures to check out. We've already seen Good Smile Company and Max Factory show off their wears. Now it's time for Wave Corporation to show off their 1/10-scale Beach Queens series of figures and boy do they have a slew of new figures coming!

Two prototypes were on display for new Beach Queens figures. There was Chiyuri from Accel World bringing a very chipper attitude and Ichiko from Binbougami ga! who is reaching out to you cause I am assuming she's falling. Though, I guess she's too happy for something like that.

In display teaser form only there is Aoko from Mahou Tsukai no Yoru, Marii from Joshiraku, Kanako from Star Driver, Kimi from Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere, Miho and Saori from GIRLS und PANZER, several of the ladies from Hidamari Sketch x Honeycomb, and the girls from Tari Tari.

That's a lot of new Beach Queens! Fans of this series of figures, you have your hands full and a very empty wallet come next year. So, again, anything you're excited to see when it comes to these queens of the beach?

Nendoroid and figma keep rolling in at Dengeki Festival

Nendoroid and figma keep rolling in at Dengeki Festival screenshot

[Update: Nendoroid Alice from Momoiro Taisen Pairon and figma Black Gold Saw TV version added to the gallery.]

I can't keep up! Earlier we saw a handful of new and upcoming figma and Nendoroid figures coming down the line from both Good Smile Company and Max Factory. Now there's even more to look and and more to get excited about.

Probably the biggest news to you folks is the figma figure of Labrys from Persona 4 Arena and she is looking ready to kick some butt. Yikes! The one that has my attention is a figma version of Super Sonico in her tiger hoodie, the outfit I adore the most for this character. With this and the Nendoroid happening, I can only hope they'll finally release a PVC figure version of her in said outfit.

Also on display for Nendoroid figures is Kanna from Ano Natsu de Matteru which I just finished today (and I cried a many manly tears). Fate from the upcoming Nanoha movie makes her appearance again along with Horizon Ariadust from Horizon in the Middle of Nowhere. Muv-Luv Alternative Total Eclipse sees Yui put on the chibi suit as well as her figma uniform.

Cripes! This event just keeps getting better and better. Well, for me. Is it getting better for you?

The Tamashii Nation grows with Durarara!!, Another, more screenshot

More news is coming from the Dengeki 20th Anniversary Festival with Bandai on the floor with figure news of their own.

Durarara!! is back once again with Bandai bringing Izaya and Shizuo to their S.H. Figuarts line of poseable figures. Also coming to this line is Mei from Another. The Figuarts ZERO line of static figures will see Asuka from Senran Kagura get a couple of new coats of paint. It also looks like she'll be joined by Yomi.

However, that's nothing compared to the news that fans have been craving. It may not be a figma figure from Max Factory but Archer is finally getting a poseable figure as a part of Bandai's Chogokin line! That is, if you are looking for Archer from Fate/Zero. But, hey, I heard that Gilgamesh fellow is some swanky guy! ...

Dengeki Festival brings out the warrior in Haganai's Sena screenshot

Little seems to be coming from Griffon Enterprises at the Dengeki 20th Anniversary Festival but that doesn't meant they don't have anything swanky. Fans who have seen Yozora from Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai dressed up as a monster hunter but been wanting Sena instead, your wait is over. ...well, sort of. You have something to at least be happy about.

At the event, the 1/8-scale Sena -Monster Hunter ver.- was on display with the painted version of Yozora. Here outfit is not looking as ridiculous as Yozora and from what can be seen, looks rather nice. The butterfly wings are a nice touch and the hair looks fantastic. And yikes! That sword she's carrying! No other details are available but it's safe to say you'll be seeing this one in 2013.
