Graduation isn’t the End

Recently joined Nendoroid Splitz.ph ‘s Photo Contest: “Graduation Day”. That took placed from February 26 – March 7,2015

My entry for the contest was a recreation of this scene from K-ON! ‘s movie.

I gave it the title “Graduation isn’t the End”. I got that from a translated line from the lyrics of “Tenshi ni Fureta yo!”.
Actually, this wasn’t really my original concept for the picture it just randomly pop-out of nowhere, most probably because I only had a only few hours to make an entry(lol). (ノ*゜▽゜*)

The criteria for judging was:
Total number of likes (70%) 1 like=1 vote
Relevance to the theme (15%)
Composition (5%)
Overall impact (10%)

I struggled to get likes for the picture. It was hard for me because I personally don’t like people asking me to like their stuff. When I see someone who messages me to like their stuff I just ignore it and carry on. And it’s pretty embarrassing to ask people to like it given the fact that I don’t post anymore of my Nendoroid stuff on my personal Facebook account. I luckily had friends who were willing to help me ask people for likes and an alternate account(I don’t mind being friends just give me a beep) to ask for likes on pages and groups. – =͟͟͞͞ ( ꒪౪꒪)ฅ✧
Thanks to everyone who helped me as for likes and people who liked the photo. I appreciate everyone’s help! CHEERS!!! 且_(ﾟ◇ﾟ；)ノﾞ

I landed on 2nd place and also won a special award! Thank you very much Nendoroid Splitz.ph!! ((┌|o^▽^o|┘))♪

Here are little bit of behind the scenes pictures:

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE! ⊙﹏⊙

Finally had some use for those bootleg Nendoroid boxes (￣□￣)

I had to cut the holes for the window and I placed clear plastic on it for the glass. This gave the shadowy effect on the picture. Also used a incandescent bulb for the sunset effect on the lighting. If you look closely the area around the window is a little bit warped due to my mistake of using glue instead of tape to stick the plastic in the paper craft. (／(ｴ)＼)

Here are the links to the paper crafts if you want them.

I bought the neck connector(middle top)
