Craft Adventure (Castor & Pollux)

Heya hello there,

Castor and Pollux are my two hybrid SD boys; Castor is a Leekeworld Adolf head on a 68cm dollzone body and Pollux is a Leekeworld Mihael head on a 65cm body. Since they're new, I've been working heavily on their bodies, outfits, faceups, etc... I figured I'd put some progress shots here (most of which are on my instagram - mishaverse - already).

I'm also really glad that the resin match is about 80-85% and you can't really tell there's a difference at all when they're wearing their clothes and wigs; I was quite worried about that when I put the money in for their bodies..

The hellscape that is my work table 99% of the time.
I like to have multiple projects out at one time. That way, when one head is drying, I can work on the others. That, or I can redress boys, play around with posing, or even just disassemble them to see if I can make them less sassy and stop snapping me!

I included this picture especially, as well as the following, to show off some of the non-permanent modding I had tried out. Pollux's character has gone through some physical trauma and I needed a convincing way to show scars without permanently altering the body (because I am not that confident yet). All that goes into the scars is pastel and glue with a tiny bit of colored pencil. Layering the color really gives it a 3D affect that looks very much like scarring.

Pollux's screaming skull scarification.

Thanks for reading & I'll see you next time,
Nat
