Lip Detailing...

 

i have been into 1/6 scale, 27cm. size OBITSU BODY-based Anime dolls for about a decade now,

(MegaHouse, Azone, TAKARA, VOLKS Ultimate Figure Series, all have been converted over to an OBITSU, if they didn't come with one already)

- and i was never happy with the "unfinished" look of their faces.

for those with sufficient resources, of course, the obvious answer is to step up to 50/60cm. ultimate detail dolls such as the Dollfie.

for those of us without hundreds and even thousands of dollars to burn at any one time, however,

lowly old 27cm. character dolls are just about as good as we are likely to ever get.

 

that in mind, and with some fantastic dollfie face-up details in mind for inspiration,

i spent some time attempting to get good enough to apply fine, delicate details, mainly within the sorely lacking lips,

to bring out the delicate femininity in my girls' faces, and make it all pop;

Well done! Especially on the eye detailing, small details are huge challenge, and you've done juuuust enough to really make those features pop!
