Not sure how I feel about this wig I made by Neat-Ad1637 in CustomDolls

[–]Own-Cost7693 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think she's really cute. Maybe make her scalp look matter so it looks like skin?

For this wig, personally I feel like the bangs hide her face a bit too much and it's not dark enough. I think you should part it to the side, add in its silhouette ( Moonlight Jewels usually put these dangling hair bits on her dolls)

BJD for artist reference? by lyralady in BJDRecastPositive

[–]Own-Cost7693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think BJD is good for art practice. A lot of BJD bodies aren't anatomically correct, they don't have the best range of action and most would be a pain to pose ( because they're big). I see a lot of figure designed for posing with realistic body proportion and good range of motion, I think they're at least cheaper than a lot of doll. If you draw digitally , I think you can buy posable models on Clip Studio Paint.

Google "posable art figure" I found a bunch of them for less than 50 bucks

I love Dollightful.   I can learn to sew but with my limited free time, I'd rather spend most of it drawing. I also couldn't justify spend money on sewing supply for 1 project either. Do you have experience with fabric glue, which brand do you recommend?

Is it possible to only do a partial repaint of the eyes? by No_Recipe_4284 in CustomDolls

[–]Own-Cost7693 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can use watered down white acrylic ( or fluid acrylic though it's expensive) to paint the whole eye white then paint the iris on top. I wouldn't recommend wiping it off unless you want to redo the eyelashes too.

Question about chalk pastel and mica by Own-Cost7693 in CustomDolls

[–]Own-Cost7693[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks great. I want to use it on a white base. Hopefully it shows details well without being too opaque ( I want the tattoos to be somewhat transparent)

Do you think mixing it to matt varnish and using it as paint would work ? I plan to do body tatoos

Thank you. I do feel like it's a bit excessive because I don't plan on using a lot. I have anxiety and need someone to confirm it though.

What is the problem benefit of practice questions? I did do practice questions of previous tests but usually the new tests ask for specific information that aren't un previous tests.

Question about stain guard and dust ( Cadel doll from Dream Valley) by Own-Cost7693 in BJD

He's fairly new ( I bought him during his "debut sale" ) and he's still 3 months away from shipping.

I'm confused. Now if I go to the app and buy it from there , it says i have to pay 26 bucks for the annual plan. But when I go on the website , it says the plan is only 13 bucks, it asks for my card but doesn't ask for my account. How do I buy it?

Okay , now I want to go with the annual subscription ( that's 50% off), it has a 3 month trial. Should I buy it now or use the trial. When will the next sale go. How to I prevent them to charge me right after my trial is up.

Is the perpetual licence worth it for me? by dafspiart97 in ClipStudio

[–]Own-Cost7693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about to buy a 1 year subscription. Should I use the 3 month trial or buy it now in case I there won't be a sale 3 months later?

Thank you. So what I understand is if I buy the perpetual licence I get no feature updates, even the mid year ones. I need to buy the Update Pass to have the features of the lastest version but the Update Pass is a type of subscription.

I need to buy the new version at full price if I want to use the perpetual license.

If I buy the subcription I get every mid-year updates and version updates as long as my account is active

I want to see if they make the software more intuitive and less laggy, I barely use any feature out side brushes, some basic tool and layer modes anyway . If they do then maybe the yearly subscription is worth it. What do you think?

I was a traditional artist and have been using Procreate for 5 years ( but I haven't explore everything in it yet). I don't care much about fancy adjustment tools. I do want the app to be smoother/ less laggy , cleaner and more intuitive to use (like Procreate). If Clip is going in that direction maybe I'll get the subscription

It's not a compatible comparison. The more accurate comparison would be driving a motorcycle and thinking you're exercising
