Not bad. Looks like a near perfect match to me.

Wonderful job! He looks like he was molded in that skin tone, I'd have never guessed he was dyed if you hadn't said so!

Nice flocking for the hair, too. Any specific methods/tutorials you'd reccommend? I'm plotting a minor dye job here - one of my dolls needs to be just a shade or two darker, so a quick dip should do it. I just have to actually get the head I'm going to use for him first. XD
