Hand Made



This is my second experiment using an old photo of mine. I got an opportunity to try out lots of joints. I look kind of uneven, and so I called in 'Hand Made'. I'm not the perfect shape for a classic doll, but who cares right?

I did edit out the nipples but it looked so strange! I also made the neck joint more pronounced but it threw out the composition.

  1. Great stuff Vicky!

    A neat trick to 'edit out' the nipples is to simply de-saturate them. The details will still be there, but will look a lot more synthetic.

    I really like the edge work, where one part meets the another. You actually took the time to create the lips and appearance of one body part sliding beneath another.

    I look forward to more!

  2. The shadowing of the overlap is very nicely done. That and it's super nice to see a manip of a real person rather then a touched photo shoot.

    1. With the foot photo, I mostly painted the lines on, but with a lot of this one, I took shadows from the picture and grafted them on, it makes it much more realistic.

      It would be really nice if I could make a doll out of somebody who wants to be a doll.

      Again, great compliment coming from you of all people.
