Limited DD face make-up?

Recommended Posts

smallpotato

Hello fellows,

 

I wonder how Volks did for all the limited DD face make-up. They look very well done/sharp and symmetric. I doubt they were done by hand-drawing.

My guess is they use some technique like decals to save for the labor and cost.

 

I'd like to hear your opinions about it. Thanks

I've been curious too because I've never seen a Volks faceup in person. I always guessed that it was screen printed.

I read somewhere that they use plates to paint the very specific shapes on--which is why every once in a while part of the eye makeup will be perfectly shaped but too low or too far over. Kind of like how kaiju is painted, if you've ever seen a video of that process.

Thanks for everyone.

I think it may be the same technique used in Danny's interview: mold plate+airbrushing or printing=make-up.

If so, Volks will have at least 2 sets of the same head's mold: 1 for producing the head and the other one for make-up.
