Of course I wasn't really dead at all, unless you count my zombie on Facebook...

Awesome! I gushed to you on DA already, but this is seriously amazing. I wonder... I wonder if we could get an art gallery showing somewhere. Several of my art friends live and work around the area that Dollfair is in. One goes to college really close and the others live in Akron. I'm sure I could get info from them.

My only critic about the whole doll is that her head seems a little large. She's got really realistic features and I've found that smaller head to body ratio works better with realistic features.

You know... if you want a head that's more stylized I still have the fishboy head rolling around.

A gallery showing would be awesome!! Something to think about once I (or someone else we know) start cranking them out.

I agree about the head, but it's a lot smaller than Embla which was my first head ~ dunno if I posted any pics of it. I might do smaller heads in future, but I guess we'll chalk it down to sticking to the BJD aesthetic. Have you seen the new SoulDoll boys?? They are peanut heads.. seriously they have MSD size heads.

So does Viola actually... XD She's a 60cm narae. I think the other balance is does the head look too small for the neck... a lot of the souldoll boys the heads look too small for the thick neck. I'll talk to catrina about a gallery show... maybe she'd have some ideas.

Yeah Narae60 is a small head, but these Souldoll boys... eeeep tiny, srsly.

Forgot to say... since I already am working with a few other artists who are supplying headsculpts, I don't have a problem with trying Fishboy out, or if you wanted to sculpt another... more feminine head for this body, I'd love to add it to the lineup.

Cool, I'll keep that in mind. I might just pack him up and send him to you.

You could do that XD ~ speaking of postage, have you got a tracking number or anything for Bastian 2? I was hoping he'd be here this week....

I meant to get them all out but with the computer problems I haven't. I'll try and get him in the mail tomorrow. >_<

That's okay then... gives you a chance to throw Fishboy in if you decide to. Is he ready to cast or am I allowed to play a little with the sculpt?

He's pretty much ready to cast except that his head cap and insides are messy. And he needs a mouth part or to have teeth sculpted in. X3
