(A not-so-misterious package from Volks, Inc. arrived home just yesterday)

Image

Kiriane: So the boys you have promised are in those box?
Faye: How they can breath without holes?
Me: Let me open the box and you'll see...
Skellanimal Kit (caught in the photos against her will): ...

Image

Faye: Mysterious writings! And someone's thanking...
Me: Volks guys are really kind...
Kiriane: Can I make a Decipher Arcane Writings check?
Me: You don't have it trained... and can you two go away from this box, please?

Image

Kiriane: ...corpses?
Faye: What'd you order two dead guy for?
Me: ...just give me a moment...

(After some minutes and a fight with silly Volks head attachment...)

Image

Faye: This is just a mannequin, Mistress.
Kiriane: Not funny at all.
Me: He lacks his face, is like not having a soul.

Go and paint him! di NekoDollieDee, su Flickr

Faye: Then go and paint them!






Notes: I'm a bit angry because Italian custom charged 30 euro on the package, and made indirectly know my parents how much the dolls were paid (and about 100 euro for two "bambolotti" seems them an enormity). i don't like to much the "softness" of the Neo Go joints, and their hands and feets are shinier than the rest of the body, but the head sculpt is great and they seems really good partners for my girls. They have already additional hands and feet, and I appreciated it a lot.

Waa! You got extra hands and feet? Did you have to order that separately? Sucks about customs charging you like that. :/

Can't wait to see what you do with the guys!!

Extra hand and feet were included in the same package of the Neo Go body, so I got them without ordering them separately ^_^ they just need a bit of sanding, because they have rough molding marks -_- Volks has gloved hands too, but they are sold separately.
The blonde guy in the photos is going to be my dhampyr sorceror, Adel des Geist (slightly inspired to Castlevania's Alucard). I'm a little anxious because that's the first male head that I'm going to paint, but surely it will be fun.

@Paladinari and landwhale: my girls pressed me so much and I cannot procrastinate XD

Ooh, congratulations! XD
I love the alternate hands and feet you can get for these bodies; the hands and feet they come with are too small and not detailed enough. I need to get more of these boys before Volks decides to "discontinue" them again!
