Ohhh you just gotta love that smile! Say hello to Makinami Mari Illustrious, one of the newest addition to my humble collection! You just got to admit, she's a gorgeous vision in pink! She's one of those Fraulein figures by Revoltech, which is as far as I know, is really hard to acquire lately so I was so happy when I scored Mari within minutes of having it posted on the Revoltech Philippines group! Such a steal! ^_^

A little background here, Mari is an Eva Pilot and she appeared on the Evangelion: 2.0 You Can Not Advance series. I'm a fan of the said anime and Mari's just my second favorite, actually. I'm a big Asuka fan. :P But heck, she's pink, so I still love her!

I also got a new camera and an 18-200 zoom lens which I used here and I'm pretty happy with the quality of the images. I sooo wanted to have primes coz I didn't achieve the depth I like, but as I always say, maximize what you already have. ;)

Haha! This shot is so me. I always, or well, will never be seen without my cellphone! Even at home, it's the first thing I look for in the morning! 

Mari likes her selfies XD

The Angel Killer wants you~

I like the details of this figure. The pearly-pink satin finish of her plugsuit compliments the color of the other parts. This is my first fully articulated figure and I'm happy that I can pose her in so many ways I could think of! She's so pink all over so I choose this cold white balance setting for this set. 

Also I just found out that there's a Figma version of Mari. I wish I could see it and compare with Revoltech's line.
