Head maid Sakuya Izayoi from Touhou 5: Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil.

This took about a month to finish as I worked on it pretty consistently. I finished it around April of 2020.

Notes: I had to paint the outside of the clothes with their corresponding colors because the printer I used was not an ink-jet, so the ink did not fully get into the paper fibers, meaning the cut edges and fold lines stood out against the dark skirt and bow. The benefit of this is that the model is much stronger, though fairly top-heavy.

The braids, bows, and fingers were all very fun to make. The fingers in particular were extremely delicate and intricate, so I often had to glue them in place with tweezers, building out the hand as I went. It was an engaging challenge. 

(Side note: touhou fans are absolute maniacs and have produced some of the greatest templates out there. I'm not a huge fan of the video game, but I love the music and I enjoy a complex model.)
