Not so long ago . . . | Then she said . . .
Wow, so it has been quite a while since I posted! SCAD just kind of devoured me @_@ Anyway, at long last, I have completed my Mihael!
Well, actually, he's not just how I want him by a long shot, but I was pretty happy with how he turned out so I couldn't resist finally "formally" introducing him!
I tried working on his face-up down here in Savannah, but the humidity just ruined everything I did. Which is why I was amazed the face-up went as well as it did while I was back home in North Carolina :D This isn't technically the first time I've done a face-up, but until now I'd only done one on a 1/6 plastic dollfie, and it was years ago, and I didn't really have the materials I needed. That said, his first face-up isn't really what I wanted, and I messed up a LOT, but I decided to just treat it as a learning experience and I'll re-do it whenever I get another chance. It's kind of funny how the left side of his face-up turned out IMMENSELY better than the right side...and that's why his hair is covering the right side of his face XD
So anyway, here he is! Aravin Cousteau, my villainous little boy with an angelic face and a heart black as tar <3 You may call him "Vinny," if you dare ;)

And a big one, for the sake of being able to see the face-up a little better:
He's supposed to be getting some blue gumdrops eyes, too...I was hoping they'd be here by now, but they won't be shipping until January *sigh* So, he's borrowing Aurora's "antiquity" colored gumdrops right now, which I decided to leave in because they match his kitty shirt so well! hehe
Critique on the face-up is welcome, too, of course. This one was pretty much just experimentation. I'd like to keep his eyebrows the same style and color, but that's pretty much it. He does have bottom lashes, they're just very short (and they look really crappy XP ). I have a few pairs of upper lashes I planned to use on him, too, but because of his tiny eye-shape....I think he looks weird with upper eyelashes o_O Plus I want to avoid making him look too feminine....
