mangaemi Posted January 16, 2013 So does anyone have this head and have made customizations to it? Granted it's a closed eye head, and you'll have to remove the eyes - but it's hard to find images of people making this head into a male or even of people opening the eyes and making them into an anime face (as most faceups I've seen of the head do a very resin/feathery faceup). considering nabbing this one and make it into a male then put it on a 50 or 55cm boy body to finally have a boyfriend for my Yumiko MDD ♥ ★ ✮ ~ Amassing an army of Anime Cuties ~ ✮ ★ ♥ The Family: Sheryl, Ranka, Kirika, Arlex2, Yoko, Snow Miku, Haruka, Student Mariko, Prisma Illya, Akira, Maria, Cirno, Noumi, Asuna Titania, Sakuya on the way: want: Sailor Moon, Miki, Yukiho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ozaki Posted January 16, 2013 Have you tried using Photoshop to have an idea of what he could look like? If you had any references of what you have in mind I could paint a quick mock-up for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mangaemi Posted January 16, 2013 well I was hoping for more physical photos b/c the slope/contours of the head can look a lot different in person with a face up - that and I'm looking for photos of the head with the eyes opened and how different eyes fit in on that head - b/c it looks like it might take 20 or 22mm but I can't say for certain just from looking at it. i can make mockups in photoshop but wanted some insider opinion before I try to order from parabox and pay double for the head b/c of the ems shipping lol ♥ ★ ✮ ~ Amassing an army of Anime Cuties ~ ✮ ★ ♥ The Family: Sheryl, Ranka, Kirika, Arlex2, Yoko, Snow Miku, Haruka, Student Mariko, Prisma Illya, Akira, Maria, Cirno, Noumi, Asuna Titania, Sakuya on the way: want: Sailor Moon, Miki, Yukiho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ozaki Posted January 16, 2013 Oh I see. Well just wanted to be helpful, but by the looks of it, I think he'll make a really good male anime looking doll; a serious, sneeky or grumpy one depending on brows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lumirei Posted January 16, 2013 My obitsu male uses this head :3 I have him in one of my figure.fm posts but I can try to take a better picture of him later http://www.figure.fm/en/post/33203/Update+and+Halloween.html He was one of my first attempts at a faceup so his faceup is not the best XD Happily at home:Lumière, Yoko, Nia, Lily, Vivienne, Altria, Lilith, Claire, Sakuya, Sakura, Haruhi, Aurelia, Melty, Miyako, Unnamed 03, Mariko (student), Momo, Miku, Snow Miku and Asuna.

Error-Chan Posted January 16, 2013 My obitsu male uses this head :3 I have him in one of my figure.fm posts but I can try to take a better picture of him later http://www.figure.fm/en/post/33203/Update+and+Halloween.html He was one of my first attempts at a faceup so his faceup is not the best XD With the eyes opened it does look better ^^ I'm to scared to open my ones eyes haha I dont her the equipment for it..

Lumirei Posted January 18, 2013 Here is a better look at his face. It isn't the best because it was one of my first attempts at a face up and i took the picture with my phone XD Stephen my obitsu male by Lumirei, on Flickr For this head opening up the eyes wasn't all that difficult because the vinyl at least on the one I got is thinner around the eyes than a closed eye DD head.

katnaper Posted January 19, 2013 I use this head as a practice head of sorts and here are a few shots of him modded with eyes opened and mouth modded. Not very good examples as I'm a total noob but the whole process was fun. He remains as floating head to this day and will likely stay that way. We have our own BLOG.

katnaper Posted January 19, 2013 Oh and here are other ones I did for this head. No mods, kept eyes closed: Here are ones with modded eyes and mouth: (disregard the modded gretel head on the second photo) We have our own BLOG.

SisterKyoya Posted January 19, 2013 Awesome! I don't know how someone would deal with a character like this over time. But he would be fantastic for jokes every one in a while, like a bit actor. OMG!!! He is SO adorable! If his skin was green he would make the most moe dino boy EVER! I just want to hug him! I really should stay away from these forums. Checking them 4+ times a day makes me spend too much money. I do think this sculpt is pretty dang awesome. And with that nose he looks like he would be a perfect little brother for the 04 head too. *adds to want list* ~Sister Kyoya Forum Blog: Badger Pocket Tales (Family story from the beginning) | { Old Family story reboot: Start Here! } Follow me on Twitter, Flickr & Instagram Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(can't believe they are only 1200yen... that's really economical) ♥ ★ ✮ ~ Amassing an army of Anime Cuties ~ ✮ ★ ♥ The Family: Sheryl, Ranka, Kirika, Arlex2, Yoko, Snow Miku, Haruka, Student Mariko, Prisma Illya, Akira, Maria, Cirno, Noumi, Asuna Titania, Sakuya on the way: want: Sailor Moon, Miki, Yukiho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
