There is something anatomy really wrong with the placement of her head, and her right upper arm is way too long. Everything else looks fine :)

Yea i agree, the upper arm does look a bit long and the head position puts her in a forced position, very pretty model.
Eric ( United Kingdom ) \| 2010-03-09 13:10:07

Pretty! Besides what's said above I still think her right foot looks strained but since it's sorta true to the original artwork it's fine I guess.... I can't wait to see all the details, they usually bring ORI kits up a notch or two~
Kate ( United States ) \| 2010-03-10 11:29:13

There are a lot of anatomy mistakes in the sculpt that make her look creepy. I advise you to fix the head placement at least, otherwise you can sell her as "Saber - lovely Zombie", with that seemingly broken neck of hers. And: "Do you guys love Saber in this way?" No. She doesn't really look like Saber, you know :/.

Everything about this model is awkward to me. The pose is very forced, it reminds me of a carriage horse being made to pull with his head too high. I know that the model is based off of artwork, but it's probably better to adjust her pose to a more likely position. She doesn't look "flirty" or "sexy" at all, she looks rather painful...

ive been looking forward to this saber but as she is now she will not be on my wish list , As others have said : her upper arms are too long and the head placement and her neck looks too long also . please adjust these features of her and she will be a winner.

That is really awesome, the pose on her is really dynamic. I think the feathers may be a little big but i think overall it works really well. This is going to be a nice kit.
Eric ( United Kingdom ) \| 2010-03-05 18:41:48

The face have bad eyes symmetry - check 24 image. Her right eye is much further from center of the head that her left eye. Even if photo is taken not from perfect angle the differences is very oblivious. Please correct this :-)
Bubel ( Russian Federation ) \| 2010-02-26 19:15:26

Bubel is definitely right about the right eye symetry - but the face itself is a marked improvement. If the eye is fixed she will really be looking quite nice!
Kumama ( United States ) \| 2010-02-27 01:34:40

I noticed that too about the right eye, it's a bit too far to the right side of her face. It's sitting where her temple should be. But her face DOES look a lot better (the cheeks) and she is really starting to shape up!
seraph_phoenix ( United States ) \| 2010-02-27 09:16:01

She looks....strange yet.... ¬¬
Camila ( Brazil ) \| 2010-03-01 21:27:21

This kit is too adorable! I can't wait to see the finished product!

[ Elegance ] [ Ming Yue ] Latest News for Ming Yue

2010-02-23 17:20:09

Lets check upon the latest update of Ming Yue. Illustrations now show the fine details on her body and lower half of the body along with the head piece. Another news is that design of Ming Yue herself, we went through many reference and after series of discussion with our chief designer and the rest of the team, we concluded that our design is rather reasonable, and she does match the design style of other projects in Elegance.

On the other hand... the story continues...

We last hear from them was arriving "Jing Yi" and settling down in the bamboo sticks while Fei Yan & Jian Xue, come with a very cloudy impression for everything happened so far...

"They are on the dark while we are under the opposite, it WILL be hard to watch those three little kittens. There's like thousands of way they could strike in to take us... they could make a diversion, sudden attack, distract the girls and lure them out ..." Jian Xue cuts off Fei Yan's wording, "Forget about it, there isn't much we could do under every objective circumstances are going against us, using our instinct to judge could yield a much better result!"

Right, Jian Xue cut to the point, when every possible plan could still lead to disaster, it is best to just remain quiet and see how the things go. With their experience, this might actually a better option.

On the other hand, something happening at the back of the stage, and it doesn't look quite match to what suppose to be in an acrobatic team.

'Report! Fishies are here, but there is an extra one coming with them.'
'Extra one?'
'Indeed, we never see this girl in green before.'
'Weird, none of us heard of her so far, now keep the observation going.'
'Yes! Madam.'

Ming Yue is the one who make the command, which means the objective and intention of these people ain't that simple. Back to the front stage, light of the shack is waiving off and the show is about to start. Outstanding shows simply make everyone's jaw dropping on the ground! This apply for Qiao Yin & Wai Fung too, even they did see much stuff like there in their adventure! Meanwhile, actions are taken at the back of the stage upon Ming Yue's order, number of nimble people going in and out her place...

About 2 two hour passed and the show reaches its climax. Ming Yue coming down like a fairy flying off the moon under light music, she keeps glaring around for the little 'fishies' she is after. All of a sudden, the entire place goes dark and what worry Fei Yan & Jian Xue finally happens...

上次的蝶舞很好，这次的明月很期待，细节服饰更精致了，看了下插图，前胸甲似乎较容易设计成可脱版本，如果成品是可脱的，一方面涂装方便了，另一方面增加了情趣和卖点，我想有更多人愿意买单的。。至少我第一个预定。。呵呵，希望采纳
思杨 ( China ) \| 2010-02-24 18:37:26

Of course it is consistent with the rest of the Elegance line: what we were saying is that one of the sleeves is flying in the wrong direction and that the high heels make absolutely no sense with this outfit... army boots would work equally well as these high heels sandals you are giving her at this point! I don't understand why it's so hard to accept that such small things need to be changed to make sense and that changing them doesn't mean that this project is going to be inconsistent with the rest of the line. You are only at the drawing stage here, still plenty of time to make such minor adjustments. Otherwise why do you ask for our comments? Only to hear "WOW, nice work!"?
ai_amano ( Italy ) \| 2010-02-26 00:52:35

It's sad that ORI doesn't care about what the customers have to say...nobody was complaining about her relevance to the Elegance line... she DOES look elegant. What doesn't look proportional or correct is the fact she'll break her feet, her top torso will fly off because she has no support, and her arms must be broken and twisted backwards to have those sleeves flying that way. I don't think ORI really cares about the sculpting or the body proportions anymore, you guys just make up even more pretty designs and detailed clothing to try and hide the basic flaws of the figure. Designs are pretty, basic figure not so much. That's all I have to say, I hope nobody takes it TOO seriously. :/
Kate ( United States ) \| 2010-02-26 05:40:51

感謝閣下之建議。這個我們暫時未有定案，但我們會在最後生產時積極考慮。
E2046-Kitchell ( Hong Kong ) \| 2010-02-26 16:55:40

As soon as we gather comments from different channel, we've discussing about it a few times. While someone wish to see her with shoes, some other don't, but still we have to make a choice, and we can only take the comment from one side. In fact, we can always make her goes without it, which actually make it easier for us, but we already have Dip Mou goes without it, we would like offer her something on the foot. For the sleeve, this issue had also raised at the meeting with the chief designer. And the fact is our designer actually has a scene on his mind. She is jumping up and raise her hand after she is up in the air and thus the sleeve should make sense.
E2046-Kitchell ( Hong Kong ) \| 2010-02-26 17:10:09

"She is jumping up and raise her hand after she is up in the air and thus the sleeve should make sense." No, it`s not - the fabric is soft and with movement and air density the sleeve should have curved form. Always
Bubel ( Russian Federation ) \| 2010-02-26 18:24:34

She is jumping, but she's still moving in a direction, and that would make the sleeve flow toward the rest of the dress. Even if it is flying upward, it should still be angling toward the rest of the clothing. No one is complaining that it's flying upward, only not at such a stiff right angle to the rest of the outfit. As for the shoes, it just doesn't make sense from a design standpoint for that type of dancer. Even broadway dancers who wear high heels wear CHARACTER high heels, and they're much lower and made for support than that. She can wear footwear without it being incongruous to the character - just look at all the beaded sandal suggestions laid out earlier.
Kumama ( United States ) \| 2010-02-27 01:31:06

I agree that some flat-footed sandals would work better. I have never seen a dancer wear high heels who jumps around in the air like that. I DO like all the little details and decorations you have drawn up so far, they are very pretty. I do like that we can now see that her top does wrap around her back....but If her long necklace were to extend down to the cups of her bra, it would look really elegant and also give the sense of realism to it that her breasts wouldn't fly out of her top after she started dancing XD Maybe someone should draw a quick mock up of how the sleeve should look, I don't think the team understand exactly what we're getting at with the angle of the movement and the type of wispy material those dancers wear.
