Wren and Darryl

[kiyakotari]

I broke out one of my photography backdrops, and finally got a chance to take a couple of shots of the new Wren and Darryl together. Still getting the hang of this DSLR. It's a doozy, and way more complicated than my previous cameras. It took me ten minutes today just to figure out how to turn off the flash!

I really need to start on the backdrop stand that I've been intending to build. These things make my photos look so much better. I want to get more backdrops, too.





Darryl's head is quite a bit more yellow than his body right now (though the difference is more pronounced in pictures than in person), but I have no doubt that will change as the body mellows. It's currently still paper white.

I know, right? For too long, there has been a complete lack of buff female dolls in this hobby. In my opinion this body didn't really achieve the "body builder" look that Humbug had originally asked for, but I love how she turned out! My only complaints are that some of her seams are a bit too prominent (like, "didn't line the molds up correctly" prominent) and I can't remove them because of her skin color not being through-and-through, and the fact that her abs look a bit overdone in comparison to the rest of her sculpt. Well, and her hands are terrible, but I plan on getting her jointed ones, anyway, so that's no biggie.

I love the variety in this hobby so much. A fashion doll will (almost) always be a topheavy nuisance to sew for, but a BJD? CAN BE ANY CRAZY BODY TYPE OUT THERE.

Jointed hands a total must in this case. She needs to be able to hold firearms!
