haha, Kev! Dolls are perfect models because they have endless patience. Although for being inanimate pieces of resin, they still manage to cop a diva attitude now and then. 😉

Take care and hope you're doing well too.

Nice pix chiquita. You are chocolate talent on a stick. You should do like ads and stuff.

Hope you are well!

Cheers,

OMG! haha That would be pretty cool. 😉

It's not too hard too do manicures. The hardest part, I think, is drawing/painting the white of the nail (I draw the line on with a white watercolor pencil, spray a coat of MSC then paint over it with white acrylic).

I didn't use any tutorials, although it has taken me about 5 manicures to get down a technique that I really like. Viktor's hands were actually the first that turned out exactly how I wanted them. I even ended up redoing Julian's hands and I think I'm going to redo Katriss' somewhere down the line.

The veins are fun to do too. Victor actually has raised veining on his hands anyway, so really all I did was lightly paint them with indigo pastels to emphasize them.

Anyway, I didn't use a tutorial. But I did just find a blushing guide that could at least give you a starting point (although I recommend completely unstringing your doll, or at least just taking off her hands if you're going to do a manicure).

They should be printed on those collectible card stickers (that used to be sold in gachapon-ish machines). Imagine a cult formed over your boys! XD

I've just realised (with the mask gone) that Akandos and Spinels have similar head/jaw structures! And the rugged look's brought out even more with the monochrome photog.

The hand blushing's awesome, too. Veins included. ^_^ Btw, was it hard to do the manicure? Is there a tutorial somewhere? 😀

Thank you so much, gals! I'm really having fun with this guy. Well, with both of them actually. 🙂

His tattoo looks great, and so does his face-up. They both look really handsome!
