Guórén (mini ver.)

Face-up artist(s):

Me

Date of acquisition:

February 22, 2024

Provenance:

Ordered direct from SartoriaJ

Reason for choice:

I wanted a fashion mini of the character's 75cm version, who's shelled as a Granado Noah.

Best Points:

Nice sculpting on the face. Very portable, reasonably easy and good to pose.

Worst Points:

His head yellowed considerably faster than the rest of his body, even compared to the parts that are not covered by clothes.

Also, the split "elbow peanuts" are a poor engineering choice, imo. Long sleeves get caught in them like there's no tomorrow.

He is the fashion mini version of Guórén.

Eyes:

The Secret Art Studio

Wig:

A Chinese brand ordered via LegendDoll

Favourite colours:

Blacks with sea greens, touched with gold

Fashion style(s):

More modern styles mixed with East Asian traditional (i.e. Japanese, Chinese)

Name story:

His name is written as 國仁 -- the character for "country" followed by "benevolence"

Character age:

Mid-twenties, 23 at the start of the L5R timeline

Character gender:

Initially identified as a straight male, but eventually exhibited bisexual tendencies where his more genderfluid partner is concerned

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

He is the fashion mini version of Guórén. His full character is better explained in his bigger version's doll profile.
