Sephiroth by Play Arts Kai (Square Enix) - Born to Seduce

Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII is the exemplar of my soft spot for guys with long hair... I knew I had to get him after he went up for pre-orders last year (2017), despite never once touching the franchise. I totally broke my rule and bought home a guy I knew nuts about... To justify my purchase, I duly went to watch the movie Advent Children (2006) and confirmed what I already knew - he's hawt and ima getting him.

I mean, a one-winged angel... How many of his kind do you know?

So one day on the bus I went past this ancient ground called the Fort Canning Park, and since school excursions seemed to have left this enigmatic spot out I decided to check it out... at 7AM in the morning (for optimal sunlight). After scouting 1 round I was pretty disappointed by the lack of remarkable landmarks, and settled for 2 snow-white domes sitting in front of a field.

Cool history - structure without known purpose, apparently built by an important chad

As I'm convinced that no one reads these words, I shall let Sephiroth do the talking. Really, this was the first time I felt I did not have to try too hard to land a good angle; the only issue I have was balancing the figure, compounded by the slope I have done the shoot at.

This "Admiring Angle" is inspired by the top notch cosplayer (below) whom I came across while I was researching for possible poses.

Cosplayer: NanjoKoji

Occasionally I felt like I was photographing an actual cosplayer... That's how real this figure felt

Give me money power...

Without a tripod, it's a killer to capture this moving head shot, but the ability to do this sort of collage is why I like action figures

Enter: his gravity defying wing... + some feathers for dramatic effect

I need more power... and money

I'm watching you, wherever you go...

Guess this wasn't a wasted trip <3

Thanks for sticking to the end
