So I got images of Mr Head the other day and I’m just too happy!! If you are wondering gabriel (doa) of lightlybattered modded this lovely boy for me. What a beautiful job she did! This is my first time ever sending a head out to be modded or even given a face up. Up until now if any of my boys needed painting I had done the job myself. But in this particular situation I wanted to have his eyes closed. This would entail the use of epoxy and airbrushing to blend. Two things that I had either never done or don’t trust myself to do. Miss Seijikat had recommended Jamie after having Natsuki’s face up done by her last year (talk about gorgeous). The mods themselves are so smooth and clean and the face up is amazing. So happy with the beautiful work Jamie had done and I can’t wait to get the head to put the rest of him together.

poor hito. i realized late last night that one of his lashes were coming out. i think it was that way saturday or maybe just from traveling. goodness, how embarrassing. tonight i did a little repair and used a stronger glue and he’s as good as new. i even took some time out to take some photos.

still on the topic of lashes i’m thinking of placing an order with volks to get some lashes (though i’m just asking for trouble… did i ever tell you that i hate putting lashes in?).
anyway, it is taking me every bit of strength not to order these shoes. how cute are they?

i’m not obsessed with this sculpt… not one bit;_;.
this is the third drayton in my collection. the mr wanted to try his hand out for the photo contest so he asked me to paint him up. he was asking for an assassin, katie suggested something very kuroshitsuji and i was thinking something the complete opposite of hito. mixed them all together and this is what i got. though if i aimed a little more towards the first two suggestions i think i would have laid off the lips a little. unfortunately i couldn’t help myself. lips are a weakness when painting heads. i save them for the very last and can spend as much time on them as i do on brows. draytons are no exception. these boys are all lips and i think they are the loveliest ever sculpted.
i used a lot of cool colors this time around. the recent trend for me have been warm colors though. lots of cool pinks, browns and plums. i also gave him smokey eyes… or at least as smokey as i can get (not saying much). he still needs lashes. i have some but not as dark and long as i want for him.

he has no name as of yet and i really can’t tell you much about him. he a total mystery for now but doesn’t seem to want to give up any info so it may take awhile.
