Achtung! Major girly-ness ahead.
Haven't updated in ages! I'm in such slump, work-wise and hobby-wise. ><
Well I got busy painting again this weekend after receiving my first shipment of Obitsu heads and bodies. I painted a Mamachapp Moko-chan doppelganger (custom #6) to put the Moko-chan outfit I got from Dollshow 20 to use. Her head's ginormous. (See comparison with Volks Neo Go after the jump.)
Those gigantic eyes too aaages to paint. Her "animal ears" are attached with elastic and wouldn't fit any of the smaller Volks/Obitsu heads I had. So I had to order a head similar in size to the original Mamachapp doll - the Obitsu #1 comes very close.
Obitsu bodies have tighter joints compared to Volks, which makes them easier to pose. Moko-chan uses a 23cm body and she's even capable of balancing on one leg. Neat!
I also wiped and repainted the blonde Volks Neo Go 3 head (custom #7), aiming for better results this time. He's retained his original sullen and pouty look. My sister mentioned she still prefers black-haired "Kanda". It's just that the Neo Go 3 headsculpt practically dictates the uber androgynous look. IMHO, Neo Go 2 heads make better-looking males, but I don't have a body for the one I'm painting next. Meh, I hope Volks will restock their Neo Go bodies soon.

No! I like how the blonde looks like now. He looks more attractive. I think you've gotten better the eyes look more alive! ^_^ Moko chan is so cute! Wish she could smile tho... hahaha... Her custume really fits her well. good job!
Costume, you mean? :P Thanks hon. The new brushes are working out quite well, it's now a question of refining painting technique. I think I'm lashes-challenged. :X
I'm not so fond of gigantic anime eyes, but I think you did a good job. And the blonde guy is so handsome!
Btw, thanks for adding my page in your links! :D
Thanks kizzychan. I'm not a fan of the huge-anime-eyes look either, but I'm susceptible to painting them on my smaller dolls, lol. Go figure. XD
