New TTL Girl:
When pictures of this girl started popping up on ebay, I started to get a bit hesitant due to photos. But after getting it in hand, it is very nice. The pictures on ebay had the hair looking really bad, super shiny, and even looking like they had rooted metallic highlights into it. But in hand, the hair is no more shiny than other heads, and these were all just cases of poor picture taking and camera flash. The hair is very nice, super soft, which for a short cut, makes it lay very nicely. I'll be doing an eye repaint on this head soon. I'm thinking of going rather anime with her, for some reason she is screaming for magenta eyes to me... so we shall see. I'll have more pics including before and afters.
Headplay Angelina Jolie / Lara Croft Head:
I ordered this on ebay and received this in the mail recently. This is a very nice sculpt, with great paint application. It's not a dead on likeness, but is a fair likeness for Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft from Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. She had the ponytail braided higher on her head than she did in the first movie. So I will be taking an older custom of Lara Croft and upgrading it with this new sculpt. I am quite happy with the paint applications, but I probably will still custom repaint the eyes... It's just what I do... I'm rarely happy with the eye paint on any head I get anymore since I learned how to do it better... lol
So I should have posts of these two projects hopefully soon, and I have a few other things in the works, as always, and I'll have posts about those in the near future as well.
On a side note, If you get a chance, swing by my good friend Corsetkitten's Blog... She recently had to say goodbye to a very special friend, so if you would, send her some love.
Thanks for following.
