Himitsu – DDH04 head customised
Friday was an extremely bright day and I itched to work on Himitsu’s face a bit. I managed to dug out some tools and started shaving/sanding and buffing her right cheek, and I touched up her make up a bit as well, below is the result :)
After I sanded her right cheek, I looked at her in person, and took some pix and looked again.
The weird thing is I felt that even tho it was only one cheek sanded, she still looked somewhat okay?
I used pastels for her lips, removed the eyeline below her eyes and softened her blush. It makes a big difference to work on the make up with plenty of natural light ^^;
Used photoshop to edit the eye colour, hmmm should have bought more different colour eyes *face palm*
Photos below are taken before the 2nd make over, I had dug around for a different wig and I think it suited Himitsu better :)
Her eyes (optical ones :P) reminds me a bit of Haruhi ^^;
The brown of the wig seems to soften her face a bit :)
For comparison’s sake, took a couple shots of current make up with the same brown wig ^^
ETA: On Sumika Times there’s a tutorial for DDH04 which is pretty detailed which might help you with customising your own DD head ^^/
uber kawaii!!! the red eye is somewhat freaky for some but for me, it just levels up her gorgeousness.
hehe I don’t mind it, I was picking a colour which my other girls don’t have :)
I really like the red eyes!
They actually look really cool, way more unique ^^ They give her cuteness a bit of an edge~
hehehe interesting how the red eyes have different responces :)
ah!! She does look like Haruhi~!!!! XD me like it!!
I like her in new make up much better!!! ^V^
hehhe wonder if I will find a short brown wig in future?
She looks best with the brown wig – lively with some gentleness. Her red eyes don’t really match with blond hair.
Thanks :D I guess the brown hair toned down the red eyes a bit ^^
I like the subtle changes you did on your newer face-up; especially the subdued rouge on the cheeks. Also can see the difference with the cheek bulge. Love that brown hair on her! I have always been afraid to do my own face-ups, although I have blushed and improved other parts of my DD body. I did add SD eyelashes to my DD heads though, and I think that little alteration looks great. I also have two Obitsu Grettel heads that I have had friends in the US and Germany help with the face-ups. They look absolutely gorgeous on the DD body! I use my DD heads when I want the anime look they have, and use my Obitsu heads when I’m going for a more realistic, model-like look. Anyway, I like the look you have achieved with her. ^_^
I think making face up can be quite stressful, I haven’t gotten to the stage where I can paint the fine hairs on the eyebrows yet ^^; The brush is difficult to control especially under artificial lighting.
