Rathi
Many activities associated with Rathi is always to do with "maturing" her. Her faceup, hair, and all this while, a mature body. But her head is much too big for the mature bodies out there. I came to the conclusion to sell her, and get a MNF Lishe, who looks similar, and whom I've always wanted (just for the pleasure of having her around, not for any chars).
See?
Could work.. right? Lishe eyes are also smaller and adds to the mature feeling. Hmm.... I guess I feel bad because Dana has been my dream doll, and my first love. (Ok, Shiwoo was my first love but he was a big doll and I didn't want any big dolls...) I feel that its better to pursue the look that I wanted (aka mature mini) with the right propotions of head-body without looking strange than holding on to a dream face and disliking that she is on a childish body. I worry that I may grow to resent her one day! Besides, its 3yrs she's here and I'm not inspired to do her story at all! Everytime I wanted to make her sari , I go, "But she has no boobs yet!" XDDD With Kali's MNF, I find that I like the posability more than the Little Fair body. And I just love how slender it is and yes the chest too ^_~
Alitos
Secondly, since Rathi's going to be a MNF, Alitos would have to be a smaller headed doll too, and I was thinking of a white-skin MNF Shiwoo. He has the smirk and his faceup could be modded to look like Alitos.
Like this!
In fact, the faceup is nearly perfect. I just want shorter and less thick lower eyelashes. The rest according to this colour scheme I photoshopped.(Silver eyebrows, eyelashes, nude lips and no red blushing!) I think it'd work well, plus even if I haven't handled the MNF boy body, I think it'll be as wonderful as the girl's. This is good news because I don't have to go thru the OFY (AR is being really slow atm) and just...less hassle overall seeing how MNF Shiwoo is a standard.
Downsizing!
In other news, I have decided to downsize and not have extra characters anymore. So, Ryu (cute boy) & Nine (little girl) are for sale, and I won't get DIM Sergei/KD Hoodoo (planned Yakuza boy). I'm sticking with my original crew, two sweet and two gothic. plus little boy. (who can be my little girl too). The original crew is all what I need, actually.
Sweet girl to represent my alternate self (wearing frilly dresses/pink) cause I dont. My girly girl (aka What If I was never tomboy?)
Sweet boy to represent my tomboy self, my love for Legolas (XD) and having a masculine boy in my crew. Hehe.
Gothic girl to explore the dark side of life, my experimentation with gothic/punk style faceups, clothes sewing, props, photo composing etc.
Gothic boy for my love of vampires, vampire lifestyle, vampiric behaviour/habits.. (haha enough said!). He'll be the mischievious, silly fun, kooky and pretty boy in the crew.
Little boy cause I want a cute boy to dress in overalls with! (Can be cute girl I wanna dress in adorable dresses Rathi wouldn't be caught dead in! Like ladybug prints/buttons)
...I hope this is final reshuffling...
