Add a ball to the neck joint.
造形にも手を加えていきます。
可動域を考えなくていいのなら
もっと作り込めるのですが
それだと球体関節人形じゃなくなってしまいますしね。
Work on the details while adjusting joint part.
I wish I could totally ignore the range of motion
to be able to concentrate on modeling quality
but then it would not be called a ball jointed dolls.
耳も原作に忠実にちょっととがっています。
Working on his facial details and ears.
I made his ears a little bit elf-like so that they’d be faithful to the original manga.
それなりの老化表現を…
Isn’t he 30’s, is he?
Need to add some aging-associated expressions…
ちょこちょこ手を加えていきます。
I usually place his head where I can see well
and rework many times.
And I made his tie (Ascot tie?) with Kleenex.
今はもうちょっとシャープな顔つきになっています。
His round face looks rather young in this picture
but it look sharper now after several modifications.
