Hey all Here is another in progress custom, hopefully this one wont break like YW cordy did!! She is made using just a season 2 darla body. I cut some of the shirt and resculpted it over her belly. I still wanna redo her hair, it doesnt look that great to me. Thanks for looking - Mike *UPDATE* Ive finished scupting her hair and she is now boiled, I will start painting her tonight or tommorow. NEW PICS AT BOTTOM POST!!

Wow! Amazing sculpt!
Your skills are getting better and better.
The hair looks lovely and flowing.
The sculpt on the fabric of the shirt, the belt, and the stomach is really professional-looking.
I don't love the look of a pregnant woman, but this is a wonderful figure! Great job, Mike!

wow she looks just great ! don't change her hair !!!!!! its so good !!! I love it great sculpting on her shirt and belly just a little suggestion, I think since she's extremely pregnant her belly button should turn outwards, not inwards
p.s. I just noticed your sculpey is grey, is this sculpey better then others ?

I think just before you paint maybe give her a quick sanding over...? On her shirt mainly to just smooth it over as the paint always exagerates things if theres like the slightest dibble.
Cant wait to see her completed.

Mikey, Great job! The look is so realistic, it feels like she's ready to pop that bun out of there! Is that my birthday gift??

She looks really lovely, Mike!
I love the face and hair. The longer hair looks much prettier on her than the original sculpt and color.
The stomach sculpt and paint looks very natural. Beautiful folds in the shirt over the stomach!
Beautiful!

This is turning out to be an Awesome Figure! Your sculpting skills are top notch. I can not wait to see the finished work. The one suggestion that I could make would be to use less "yellow" in Darla's Hair. Try mixing a dab of yellow with a dab of brown (more brown than yellow) then lighten the whole mixture with white or cream to about a "Mousey" color. apply to the hair (this is the base coat) let the hair dry completely then lightly dry brush the the high points of the hair sculpt with white mixed with a slight touch of the base hair color...let dry... then take your detail brush and with very little white hit just a very few highlights of the hair (around the face, part etc.) be careful not to go overboard. I think that if you try this it will give Darla a more natural blonde look and add some depth. the above is just a suggestion Keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing the figure finished and hope to see you do many more customs in the future!
