This is really nice. But it's still somewhat off in someways. I guess I'm used to his realistic look. But it's a nice piece.

I know you're British and have no bad intentions but . . . you might not wanna use that term around here . . .

I actually wasn't sure if Miyazaki would hate something like this, sorta "too cutesy." Unless he's for it being a fundraiser even like that . . .

I ordered one. I don't worship Miyazaki, he's not my favorite anime director (not even close, there are several I like more), but he is very good, and the model is really cute. Plus, it's for a good cause.

Look at what you just wrote, and think about it. Other than the moe genre, which he has gone on record multiple times to say he abhors it, nothing is too cute for Miyazaki.
