Lala Lolita Posted March 3, 2012 Hi guys! So I just bought an Obitsu 50cm head, because it was a good price, to practice face-ups on. I know it's not a DD, but do you think showing samples on it would suffice? Also, who else buys practice heads? Are they always DD? @blushingbjd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mitsuki Posted March 4, 2012 I think if the vinyl is similar, using an Obistu head sounds like a great idea for practicing. I have seen a couple people say they were looking for practice heads. It sounds like the best way to get used to doing faceups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lala Lolita Posted March 4, 2012 Yeah that's what I thought. I saw it for $25 and I said to myself "PERFECT" I won't mind scrubbing it of time after time. @blushingbjd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GothicKDM Posted April 11, 2012 I think the only difference is that the Obitsus feel softer, where most DD are a harder vinal, but now there are a couple soft heads. I was also a beginner when i got to paint a friends DD, so I really didnt get to paint it like anything special, but it was what she wanted XD. I do want to start just painting head again, i just right now keep putting off getting them. I have a wonderous plan for one..its just destined for a DD head so i need to just set aside the 50 bucks. I do have a gretel i can practice on hmm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GothicKDM Posted April 20, 2012 This is my work for a commission on a gretel head. I do feel at times its easier to use watercolor pencils on the vinal (which i dont though have any in this pic) but i have use them before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taidai Posted July 23, 2012 I got a practice head from a complete derp moment, I was ordering my DD's wig and I somehow ended up in the 'attached wig' section. Soooo I got a wig attached to a head. Needless to say, it's ruined from my faceup fails now Be sure to check out my misadventures in the Dollfie Dream world: I have NO idea what I'm doing and my Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
