She is one of my favorite characters in the Pokémon anime because of her sassy personality and the headache duck that always messes up the team 🤣
About the figure, firstly, I don't make Misty 10-year-old version. I want to express my artistic about sassy, charming, confident, free, independent and mature. So the kid stage definitely doesn't fit that. I decided to age her up to an adult, because I found it more suitable. The only original things that my figure is based on are her concept and her pose (as you can see in the first picture). Another reason I chose this pose is that it looks like a volleyball-ready pose, and I want to build the volleyball beach circumstance for the figure, because I think it matches with her water gym leader theme. With all of those, my figurine looks like my own version of Misty, rather than a fanart of the original character. So please, keep an open mind about it. 🥰
