My kit arrived last week - I've finally unpacked and deflashed it. This was an impulse buy - I loved the dress and could see so many possibilities with it. It's a very simple kit - not many parts and they're broken up at natural joins with most of the parts needing only one or two colours. The necklace will be the biggest challenge as the chain around her neck is very fine. She's a pretty figure and I'm looking forward to working on her. Her packing was bad. Her larger parts were loose inside a tough plastic bag with.her smaller parts in two lighter plastic bags inside it. She was shipped with two other kits and her bag was simply stuffed in the box with one of them. While there was enough room for it, I was not happy to see it done. I paid full price for her shipping so I expected her to be packed with E2046's usual care and in a box of her own. This is an older kit and it's not without related problems. The resin is yellowed and harder than E2046's usual resin. The cast is reasonable, but details are very vague - her hair is not crisp at all and her plaits are almost featureless. The seam lines haven't been handled well, either - they're either over-sanded so details are lost or badly done so there's a lot of fiddly work needed on her. The parts fit is fine except for the excess resin in the join areas. There's also a lot of flash. The reference photo that comes with this kit is not a photo - it's a print out. It's also a terrible image - all blurry and pixelated with a large logo on it. Not a good reference image at all. Thank you for the kit, E2046. Yamirose
