Face up weekend!

Postby landwhale » Tue May 10, 2011 12:15 am

I've been on a faceup spree! I'm practicing so I can get better. There are still many areas I can improve but overall I still like how these turned out.

Major areas for improvement
1. Eye crease line
2. Lip part line
3. Eyebrows still need more work
4. Eyelashes still need more work
5. Top eyeliner line is still hard for me.

Oh, I know the twins don't look identical, but they aren't. They're fraternal. Allen (CH Ren) is a blonde and Drew (CH Rena) is a brunette. I will post pics of them dressed and in wigs at some point.

EDIT: Another thing I want to work on, is doing very natural faceups. I feel like the lashes on my faceups are too lush. It's good sometimes, but not everyone wants to look like they are wearing falseys. Oh, and hopefully after I add upper lashes to Allen, he won't look so starey.

Thanks guys!

I forgot to say the first one is a CH Petite (about 26-27 cm or YoSD sized) Juriel. I liked her product shots a lot, but her head is actually very skewed. It doesn't show in the photo since it's only noticeable either head on or from a lower angle. I considered sanding her down to make her more symmetrical but it would be a lot of resin. I'm not sure if the skew is from a bad casting job or if the original was like that. Maybe it got pulled out of the mold too soon and got warped?

I'm going to blush her body so it matcher her face. I hope she won't look too cadaverish.

I can't get them strung until my ordered s hooks arrive :(. Custom House failed to send their s hooks and I searched high and low for small enough hooks since JS is out of the stringing kits. I finally ordered some from Antina's doll supply. Hopefully those s hooks fit. They look kinda big and weirdly shaped though.
