I didn't like how it turned back then so I re-adjusted some stuffs to make it better in my eyes. This model was made in 2010 (I think) and was second completed model after Cocona model.

To be honest, this model initially was just an attempt to recycle failed body mesh because I felt bad to scrap it. I ended up working on this seriously and enjoyed throughout the learning process. This model was even featured in local blender magazine. I was proud and happy

Back then when I was looking for anime-styled model reference, l found an Indonesian Blender Forum where I saw this particular model of Touhou character (Kazami Yuuka, I think). It looked rather... how do I say it? Pitiful might be the right word. Yes, I was that arrogant and that alone sparked something inside me.

"...What's this? I could probably do better if I try!"

And thus, my pursuit of anime-styled modeling began. It wasn't smooth journey at all. Often I aimed too high only to hit brick wall and ended up abandoning the project (my older watchers probably still remember what those were). It took me a while to realize that I was nothing but an amateur who thinks he knows something.

It's been a few years since then, but I don't feel that I've improved that much. I guess I spent too much time on MMOs, haha..
