For the gradient I use 2 external flashes. One below the subject pointing at the background and one one the subject.

Cake Bake Off!
First up is Kaito. Channeling his Actor Yutaka's baking skills. he makes a desert called Crazy Monkey. Chocolate mousse surrounding a center of roasted bananas layered on top of chocolate cake with of course some dried banana's on top. though he might lose points for stealing the top... Next up is Jounouchi. Using his skills he got working under Oren at Charmant his desert is called the Hulk. Green tea mouse over chocholate cake and a hazelnut crunchy bottom. True to the deserts name one needs a bit of strength to get past the chocolate dome on top(though isn't using a Hamer more Thor's thing ). So...who do you guys think should win (Deserts courtesy of Houston pastry shop called Dolce Delights)

So I just got this in today to fill in for Femme for the time being:
Siren (or Femme) does look pretty nice, but the figure just feels cheap. Maybe I've been spoiled by Figuarts, but it just doesn't feel like a quality figure. Right out of the box, her arm is already falling off. I'm also not too fond of the greyish pants. I think the figure would have looked much better if it was straight up black, to better compliment the white. And I also don't like the wires on the cape. I really wish that was implemented better because the cape is hard to work with and then there's just these wires ruining the overall aesthetic. She's tiny but I can deal with it since she's a girl, and it's really not noticeable when she's on her stand anyway. Overall, not a bad figure, but I'm still holding out for Femme. Let's just hope mine doesn't break any time soon like I've heard from many others.

The weapons and cape are what you should worry about. Whereas Figma Knight's cape was done perfectly, Siren's is just terrible and is cheap. The wires can indeed come off fairly easily with her. Also the weapons are some of the weakest ones ever. They are so brittle.

Figured I'd give a shot at taking a picture of my Arms Change figures next to their respective lockseeds, the backs of their boxes made a good wall to block my keyboard in the background. =P Also man posing Zangetzu with the Sonic Arrow is a pain, especially getting his other arm to grab the 'string' of the bow.
