It occurs in Tokyo Big Eyes, twice a year, in august and December, and until now keeps an Otaku* tradition as pictures inside the convention are forbidden. Nevertheless you can find numerous photographic on Flickr as outside cosplayers enjoy to show their creations.

Body Chan, Former version pale orange.

Two figures were created for helping amateur and professional drawers in their work. With a female and male aspect, they are respectively called Body Chan and Body Kun. After their decorative aspect and their aestheticism (for recent version – DX) and for a few other uses that professionals can find, their main utility is concentrated in a system of more than 30 joints. These joints are able to create almost identical movements as those of a real human being for a perfect realism.

It is with no doubts a must have to facilitate the work without a human model thanks to its morpho-realistic appearance. The booklet explains how to practice, here come a slight view :

The DX version comes with a variety of hands and accessories making scenery easier to create, and unlimited imagination.

To draw, the gray version is preferred, even if the pale orange version looks good. Both let appears a bigger variety of shadow. The black version is the beloved one for artist who which to paint it as their tastes, as their arts, guide them.
