Yikes. It looks worse up close. Looks like her leg was chopped off and glued back on. The texturing is awful. The sharp creasing around her breasts makes her suit looks like it's made out of tinfoil or paper mache.

Sad, I really like her pose and everything not covered by the suit.

Keep in mind that's a paint master so naturally the seams will appear more pronounced since the statue can be taken apart. The final production piece will have that area fused together with glue making it barely noticeable.

Appreciate the response. I am really excited about Mera and future DC Bishoujo pieces!

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Thanks for confirming. Though, I'm left to wonder why the seam wasn't placed along the hip line. Even if it was pronounced then, it would at least look like a bodice and tights that way, instead of a gnarly break.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Wow, $130. Holy mackerel. Guess it's another pass for me. Bishoujos are dying off from my affordability range in droves. And all the photos posted to the FB groups still show a terrible seam on the additional angles the came out.

On both legs, too.
I realise they may be less prominent in the final piece but I can’t help but wonder why it was necessary to cut it in that way.
