2nd Contest Entry
Blue Grand Prize
I imagined Gundam Barbatos fighting on the front lines.
I purchased HG Barbatos at viviON Blue. I also made the diorama at the same time to create a complete atmosphere.

The composition conveys the atmosphere of "Delicious in Dungeon" and the character. Marcille's obedient and expressive personality is shown off in the photo, so we have given it the "Best Shot Award"!
Idea Award

I painted it in the theme of Aogiri High School's Chiyoura Chiyomi in her live costume ✨The pose is inspired by the moment when a weapon like a spear is thrown ♪

THE "Idea Award"! Yuki posts various models made with unique ideas that are not bound by the default colors. This time the coloring inspire by Aogiri High School's Chiyoura Chiyomi's live costume is very beautifully expressed!
Runners Up
Standing on her hind liegs without using the stand!
It was hard to hold a pose and find the right balance to stand only using the hind legs.

Elena's loveliness is at its max. It looks like a painting with a composition like a hero. I feel like I want to be there.
It's been a while since I got an LBX, so I went all-out with paint! Please resell me!
The theme was "signature pose," so I tried to add effects...! lol

Despite the simple composition, when I first saw the photo my first thought was "I want it to protect me."

A custom viviON Blue spec. Gundam that tells the a story of shielding cargo. The "signature pose" theme is also captured here!
May you stay with me forever
It's okay that I've only built her up without detailing her. It's enough to have fun with the build and to be able to enjoy looking at the finished product. And it's enough if every time I look at her smile, it makes me happy.

Her personality is what shines through as a "signature post". I want to protect her smile.

Teacher, please treat Arona like a king!

The crown, cane, and chair are good, and the "signature pose" as "king" really comes out!

The texture of the wings is illuminated by light and is basically real. The black of the figure looks great in a varied atmosphere created by the lighting.

The flowers and trees in the background bring out the sense of the fae world, and the red lighting highlights crisis and tells its story.

The accessories are genius when combined with this figure. A story is told here, and the background of the character is clearly expressed.
It's a bizzarre adventure

Speaking of "signature pose", of course, it's Jojo! The background looks like retro Japan and contributes to the figures feeling tall. It's wonderful.
Zoids are great...

At first glance, it looks like a ruthless pose, but the light on her eyes stirs the imagination!

I can sense the story in the picture from the use of paint & the diorama. Even though it's quiet - and even though it's a photo - I can feel this pressure that I'd be done for if I got close. It is the first "Blue Grand Prize" because it is the best match for the theme of "signature pose"!
