Chou-Ho


"Chou-Ho"
(Super Shinken Red and Shishi Origami from Samurai Sentai Shinkenger)


Another Christmas gift for another friend of mine (although completed very late). I assumed a lot of trouble with the Origami since it's blocky and static by-design. I think despite that complication, I made it work. I decided on using Super Shinken Red rather than his other variations because it sets a different tone and allowed me to have him contrast the pose of the Origami better. The scan drowns it out, but the emblem in the background was colored using a Gold Sharpie, which gave it a really nice metallic look!
