Lol, so ever since my Flickr friend Giulia made a giant littlest pet shop Cat head/Licca body hybrid I've been hankering to make my own due to wanting a big head friend for my Pullip Fakie and just cuz I like monkeys due to it being my Zodiac.

I had a spare EB C tan body laying around since upgrading Griffin and thought since I would not have another tan head to plop on I figured this would be a good body.
To attach the head I cut up a Bratz head and cut it down until it barely fitted into the gaping hole of the LPS head. It can tilt and all that jazz now :D

Here's a few shots with it's original paint...

Also, I decided to test out zoom versus Macro + being physically closer. My mind was blown.

Yeah, the default face was HORRIFICALLY HARD to remove so I spent two hours on that... And trying out the thin layers of paint for about four hours. *faints* Never again.

Um, yeah, trying to paint thin layers and making it smooth is not my thing. So... this is pretty amazing despite how streaky and not-Giulia quality at all. Lols but I think it looks great considering my skill set with non eyes.

Also, LPS paint is evil.

Lols yeah, I had no idea what to paint in his eyes except make it as Japanese and stylised as possible. So there's a bit of Pose doll technique in there, some Anime touches and yeah.

Also, I laugh cuz adjusting the contrast makes the face looks decent xD

And yeah, sorry for lack of pictures due to his legs snapping and these pics being taken at 1 in the morning...

The paint doesn't have to be perfectly smooth, monkeys have fur. It looks more realistic this way. :lol:

I've been thinking about this guy...do you think a Hujoo body would work, too?

This is such a good idea! I think your paint job turned out great. I love the new design too.

That is such a fun idea. The cheek swirls are a cute touch.
