MANY BIG UPDATES -
Headsculpt(s) - There have been a few issues with the original plan of doing a bald sculpt with two hairpieces.
1. Because of the nature of Mathilda's hair being so form fitting to the sculpt, it wasn't plugging into the sculpt flush, so there were unsightly gaps.
2. Her bangs were very thin, which made them fragile and prone to breakage, which made the process of putting the hairpieces on the sculpt even more frustrating.
3. The idea of rubber hair was tossed around, but ultimately we decided against that because of how difficult the rubber is to paint and the seams between the rubber and resin would be too obvious.
Our solution for these issues was to produce three full headsculpts (bald for hairing/wig, hat, and no hat), while not the original plan, this was the best alternative while still giving everyone the most flexibility.
Everyone that bought a sculpt set (bald and two hairpieces) will now be getting two full headsculpts for the price they already paid. If you purchased a bald sculpt plus a sculpt set, you will get three full headsculpts.
Here's a sample cast of the sculpt with hat, not the final product though as it's being redone due to some loss in detail in the hat -
Outfit - I emailed Yunsil recently for a progress report and this was her response two days ago -
I'm working now your project.
so, You can see it in this week, If there are not problems.
So that's good news.
Painter - Sean and I are still talking to several painters to find someone that can do an amazing job at a decent price for everyone, and paint everything, heads, hands, boots.
I think that's about it for now.
To summarize -
1. Sculpt is now three separate, individual sculpts, bald, hair, and hat.
2. Outfit sample will hopefully be finished this week.
3. Still seeking a top notch painter that can do all of the pieces.
Thank you for your patience, please PM me with any questions or concerns.
