noirioko Posted September 16, 2014 OMG after waiting about 2-3 months.. she arrived... *fangirl scream* I took a few photos of her.. Only a few like always, because I'm bad at taking photos.. it's just so hard to find a good focus, had to retake countless time.. I almost want to just sell her. I simply couldn't take her charm with my camera.. which is so sad, I see other can have good pictures of her, while in my hands, she isn't so photogenic at first.. at least I managed to have this shots.. miracle. (This one is put in front of the back of a big poster.. much cheap background eh.) (These two are even worse, I put it in front of a screen much cheat ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creationdss87 Posted September 16, 2014 She is gorgeous! I love the faceup on her, it's very light and feminine and so Rise ^_^ Your cheat backgrounds are brilliant! I couldn't tell and they turned out great ^_^ p.s. your not really considering selling her Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cauldroness Posted September 16, 2014 I love the sweet touch of the beauty mark on her cheek -- small and subtle, but so elegant. Ahahaha, people have to stop posting custom Rises on the forum, it's tempting me to have one of mine repainted. They're all so gorgeous! Who was the artist for your Rise?

noirioko Posted September 16, 2014 p.s. your not really considering selling her Thanks! I did consider it! I love her irl but, I felt very stressed when I can't get good photos of them easily.. out of frustration, i thought about it. but after a serious thought, i don't think i'll ever sell her . I might regret it 1000 years I love the sweet touch of the beauty mark on her cheek -- small and subtle, but so elegant. Ahahaha, people have to stop posting custom Rises on the forum, it's tempting me to have one of mine repainted. They're all so gorgeous! Who was the artist for your Rise? Should get yours, she is pretty whatever custom you do to her~ Artist is WDS !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aile Posted September 16, 2014 oh god she's so pretty . I love the Rise sculpt, and I love custom Rises even more! And yours is no exception; that sweet look on your rise is super cute, it's actually tempting me to repaint my second Rise as well :'D (I'm holding back though because I love the default faceup as is ahuhu unless I can get a third rise to keep in default stock HAHAH ) CREW: Haruna (Alter V2 remakeup ver) ☆ Nyx (Rise remakeup ver) ☆ Senka (Rise ) ☆ Aila (DDH-01) ☆ Nero (Saber Extra) ☆ Sora (Miku) ☆ Anemone (Sasara V2) ☆ Beauvoir (Sheryl Nome Remakep ver) ☆ Nymnir Nyven (Yuriko & Liliru) ☆ Jeanne D' Arc ☆ Y'shtola ☆ Leucothea (2b Remakeup ver) IG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love your 'rise' too hehe looks really like persona4 drawing comes alive~ somewhat I can't get the default faceup to be photogenic (i have terrible time taking good photos of her, so i had her repainted).

foo Posted September 16, 2014 She's beautiful and your photos are great! Don't be discouraged, taking photos is much harder than it looks. The photos I take are usually the result of a lot of iterative shots until I can get something I like, and I've learned a lot over time and I'm still getting better. I've been doing photography for a very long time but studio photography of dolls is like something entirely new, and it can take me an hour to get a single decent photo as I try stuff out. A couple times I've just given up and ended up composing a completely different photo in frustration, and ended up with something nice. And I've done more shoots and ended up with nothing at all (。-_-。) Edit: Actually, another example is this photo I took for the TTYA vendor feedback thread. That took me over an hour of post processing trying different methods to get the shadows and colour cast correction right, nevermind how much time I spent taking the original photo (after a bunch of takes, I found that an 8 second exposure worked best). All I wanted was to have an acceptable photo of Yaya's jeans (-‸ლ) I put Sakuya in there to make the photo more interesting, but she ended up being short-changed with an awkward pose... she looked good from another angle, but that wasn't the angle that the camera was looking at >_< Your photos are WAY better than mine, be proud of them! The effort is worth it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baldylox Posted September 17, 2014 Like others have said.... She's gorgeous! I love the eye and wig choice you have for her, it makes her so different from others and it makes her look super perky and fun. And your photos are EXCELLENT! How you can say they aren't good is beyond me, I'd kill to be able to get photos like these of my girls. The easy backgrounds look wonderful and are great ideas. Who cares what you use for one if they look so nice? It isn't about what you use to get good pics, its the end product that makes it. Thanks for sharing these and congrats on getting her!

AceZeroX Posted September 17, 2014 I AM SO JEALOUS. i want Rise too.. She is just amazing! It looks so much different than the default, truly brings out her expression!

Ayuuya Posted September 17, 2014 * A* Don't be too hard on yourself, I think these photos of your lovely Rise are absolutely beautiful -- so the other pictures you took must also be lovely~ QQ Pretty faceups like these make me tempted to change the look of all of my girls;;; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noirioko Posted September 17, 2014 Thanks everyone for the words It's just me , often beating myself too hard.. orz. She's beautiful and your photos are great!

The effort is worth it Thanks for your words! Your photos are so great!! I followed your flickr! Really love girls wearing kimono hahehe. Yes I know that too haha taking photos took me hours, that's why I felt a little frustrated.. Sometimes even after hours I can't get any good ones. It's just so hard to do the manual focus right!! It's like if her right eyes are sharp, the other eye is blurred LOL. *need to learn more* Like others have said.... She's gorgeous! I love the eye and wig choice you have for her, it makes her so different from others and it makes her look super perky and fun. And your photos are EXCELLENT!

Billy Awww thank you so much! Made my day just that I was really tired to keep taking picture and changing the settings for hour to manage a few shots.. But I guess it's part of a learning and can't be discouraged by that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
