The Little Guys Will Participate in the Lunar New Year Festival!

 Hey Gang!

The little guys will participate in the Lunar New Year Festival!

Julian, Auggie, and Rin.
Auggie: Get over there!
Julian: No, you get over there!
Hiroshi clears his throat!

One of the key things in martial arts is discipline!
The outfits are scrapbook stickers!
I had to remove the stick stuff on the back of the outfit.  It is two pieces. I used a blow dryer to remove the adhesive from the sleeves of the jacket and open up the back seam of the pants. I use yarn to give them a white belt. Later, I plan to add a waistband to the pants. This outfit works better for the narrow SIS kid bodies and the articulated Chelsea size bodies from Five Below. I have used the sticks before, so I knew that they would work.


OK, Thanks For Looking!

Japanese GI Joe!

 Hey Gang!

In 2001, GI Joe released twoWW1 Japanese action figures. One is the Air Force Officer, and the other is the Zero Pilot officer. 


Air Force Officer!

If you follow my blog, you will know Hiroshi Takada!

He is the "Air Force Officer".

Zero Pilot Officer!


I found the Zero Pilot officer in a thrift store and was going to sell him until I realized that the figures had different faces.

Out of the box.
I thought this would work as a snow outfit, but I'm not sure that's how I will use it.
Side by side, look at their faces!
These guys have the older Joe feet, which are larger and can't wear Ken doll shoes.
New Feet.  Old Feet.
Faces!
I am making them cousins!
Tatsuki and Hiroshi!
And their wives!
Ai and Tatsuki.
Hiroshi and Akira.

OK. Thanks For Looking

Projects For The Month Of July!

 Hey Gang!

I want to do more dioramas/stories.  What I realized is that I need more props, backdrops and items that give detail to dioramas because I have tons of stories The first thing I do when looking at a story is look at the background the clothes and the little details in the post! I feel these things give the dioramas/stories texture and interest! I sometimes find things that I didn’t know were available 1/6 scale! Then I am on the hunt for those items.

 One of  my plain shots!  Hiroshi Takada

I often take a plain picture while planning out my diorama to see what it looks like and what I need to add to give it that texture that I want and love. I have been blogging long enough to up my game on dioramas and other things doll related. I am taking this time to also organize my 1/6 items. I can’t tell you how many times I want to do a post and can’t find the items I want to use.  So I will organize and remember to put things back after I am done too! * I am still waiting for my AA Signature Looks male to arrive.*

One of my favorite male characters is Hiroshi Takada.  His character and storyline is well developed in my mind! If he is to be ready for my next series of post for Chinese New Year, he is going to need a dojo!

So here is a simple post of a story as I take some test shot of the layout of the dojo. Hiroshi is joined by a few others of my favorite characters Thomas J. and Chet Chang.

DoJo Test Shots

 


Hiroshi gives martial arts instruction at his dojo!  He has be working with Chet as one of his private students.

 Chet: Good morning Sensei!

Hiroshi: Good morning Chet!

Chet: I have been practicing my forms.



Hiroshi: You are been working hard and it shows. 

You still need to do some running to build up your wind! You need to spar with a partner. 

Chet: I have been doing sparring with you!

Hiroshi: No, I have been instructing and correcting your form!  I will be better                                   able to do this if I can observe you with a partner...an opponent.

Thomas J. Woo

Chet, meet Thomas J.  He is also a student of mine.  

I think having you two spar together will be good for both of you!

 


I am trying to decide if I will want the walls black and a light floor. I have seen wooden floors but not sure if that is what I want. I want to add some art work, posters and a trophy case to the scene.  I like the idea that My Froggy Stuff had of the free standing punching bag. I have my shampoo bottle ready. I am also thinking about a mirrored wall. I want to be able to have more than one thing going on in the dojo at the same time. So one of the walls will fold out for more space.

How Hiroshi Takada Starts His Day!

How Hiroshi Takada Starts His Day!
Hiroshi Takada likes to start his day off right! First, he
practices Tai Chi which is very good for his body!


Then he practices writing! This is good for his mind! He
has been doing this for years.


He keeps in writing supplies in the cabinet behind the screen.


Then he prays and meditates in silence. Last is breakfast.

All these things help him to have a productive day!

It is his morning ritual!

Only one thing or should I say one someone can break his
peace!

Hiroshi: Mariko! There is fruit in the kitchen!

His daughter Mari. She is a teenager!

Pray for Hiroshi. He will need it!
