Juu-Yuki Faceup Corner 6: SQLab Haruka

Sorry for the spam ;~;

Last one for this week, I promise T^T

 

Custom SQLAB Haruka Commission.

The owner wanted top Lashes like Rina, bottom like Yuki. She came out like Sasara in my opinion. I hope the owner will still love her >~<

 

I don't like working with resin since my paint and blush doesn't like to stick and will come off in flakes if not handled properly. A lot of work went into this one and scared me away from resin for good.

 

Feel free to give critiques =)

 

Commission included:

- Head cleaning and faceup removal

- Custom design and painting

- 2 coats of sealant

- Pinky Orange Blushing

- Glossed lips (extra bonus)

She is very pretty! Nice clean work!

When I saw her in the Twin Snow thread I thought at first that she *was* a re-made-up Sasara! I think a lot of it is that mouth in the head mold though, not solely your faceup. She looks fabulous.

I LOVE her!!! Also, that last pair of eyes is wonderful!! May I ask, where you got them?

I wish is was as clean as if I was painting on vinyl. I always do a messy job on resin XD

But thank you, glad it looks clean ^^

Hehehe~ SURPRISE! LOL

The mouth does remind me a lot of Sasara though XD

They are from Twin-Snow:

Woww she does look like Sasara (which isn't a bad thing at all!) but like Poofiemus said it's likely due to that cute open mouth.

 

And she has a very sweet and demure look . And I'm sure no one will mind your picture spams of pretty face-ups lol

Another gorgeous custom! She does look just like Sasara, but I do see the Yuki/Rina influences there as well. With those 3, you can't really go wrong~

Super cute!

 

Resin is a different beast from resin. My sister prefers working on resin heads o_0" But maybe it's because that's what she's worked with more initially?

 

I love the SQ Labs heads though. I hope you get the chance to work on a few more!

She's really cute! I like the pink wig with grey eyes for her

That's funny you have trouble with pastels, it's usually the opposite for me. Maybe it's a matter of using more sealant, I tend to use not enough sometimes which makes the surface rougher.

Maybe its because I don't use any sealant underneath the paint ^^" I find MSC a pain to take off if I make a mistake >l

 

The paint and stuff just doesn't go on as well as if they were on vinyl. It's easier to make those thin lines with vinyl.

Silly question then. Have you ever had any problems with staining without having the sealant underneath? Or has there never been reason to change a faceup after you're done and have sealed it?

I have redone my faceups a few times. And no, never had staining problems.

so good

 

how do you get the lashes so symmetrical!

Trial and error ^^"

It took a lot of removing and redrawing.
