Laxie - Waifumon, Pin Up Figurine, 1/6 Scale Collectable

Laxie is a stunning 1/6 scale pin-up figurine from the Waifumon collection, arriving as a fully cast physical resin collectible with supports already removed and surfaces cleaned ready for assembly and painting. This piece captures a relaxed, reclining pose with expressive detail across every curve, from the flowing teal hair styled into signature twin buns, to the delicate lace trim of her turquoise lingerie set. The sculpt rewards close attention, with subtle skin texture, naturalistic fabric folds in the draped red satin beneath her, and a coy, half-covered expression full of personality.

Standing at approximately 280 mm in length at 1/6 scale, Laxie is a sizeable display piece that will command attention on any collector shelf. The figure arrives as a single or small-part assembly, depending on the variant, making her accessible for painters of all experience levels. Whether you are building a themed display or simply want a striking centrepiece for your hobby space, this figurine delivers excellent sculpt quality and satisfying painting potential.

Waifumon figures are designed with the serious adult hobbyist in mind. Each cast is produced in high-detail grey resin, capturing the fine linework of the original digital sculpt and translating it faithfully into a tangible, paintable format. The result is a collectible that bridges fine art and hobby craft in equal measure.

This guide is aimed at intermediate painters looking to bring Laxie to life with a clean, vibrant pin-up finish that honours the original colour scheme.

1. Prime

• Apply a thin, even coat of grey or white spray primer across the entire figure.
• Allow to cure fully before handling to avoid fingerprints on the surface.

2. Skin Base

• Basecoat all skin areas with a warm ivory tone such as Vallejo Pale Flesh or Scale75 Fair Skin.
• Build up depth with a thin wash of diluted flesh tone in recesses around the collar bones, abdomen, and knees.

3. Hair

• Basecoat the hair with a mid teal, such as Citadel Sotek Green or Vallejo Jade Green.
• Layer up highlights by adding increasing amounts of white to the teal, focusing on raised strands and bun tops.
• Pick out the hair ties and bead accessories in deep purple and a soft green respectively.

4. Lingerie and Fabric

• Basecoat the bra and underwear in a rich teal matching the hair palette for a cohesive look.
• Highlight with a lighter turquoise mix on raised areas of the cups and waistband.
• Paint the lace trim in near-black with a dark navy edge highlight to add depth without losing contrast.
• For the draped satin beneath Laxie, use a deep burgundy red basecoat and layer up with a brighter scarlet on ridges and folds.

5. Face and Expression

• Apply a careful flesh wash around the eyes and cheeks, then build up a subtle blush on cheekbones and the nose bridge using a diluted pink glaze.
• Paint the eyes with a warm brown iris and finish with a gloss varnish dot to add life.
• Carefully define the lips with a rose pink, highlighted with a small central highlight in pale peach.

6. Finishing and Basing

• Seal the entire figure with a satin varnish to protect the paintwork and unify finish levels.
• Apply a spot gloss coat to the eyes and lips only for natural contrast.
• The included base platform can be painted in a deep charcoal or left black for a clean gallery-style presentation.
