Out with the young, in with the old!

Something unexpected, something serendipitous has happened in my dolly world! See, I've been terribly dissatisfied with a certain someone for quite some time now. He's the only one who hadn't lost the baby fat in his face. His resin hasn't matched in so long I'd quit taking color photos of him. No amount of cajoling could induce me to work on

Wow, the Roke is a fantastic match!
Congrats!

[aaronstjames]

Thank you! It is a surprising likeness!

[georgedollie]

He looks sorta kinda like you ;)
An excellent match although I will miss the old St. James.

[aaronstjames]

Heh, I'm not seeing it, but thanks! The old St. James will still be around, much like the old Kaspar, I don't think I could part with the head! But it was clearly time to move on.

[zagzagael]

Yes yes yes!!!! I cannot WAIT to see where you take that head - he's perfect, J!!!!

[aaronstjames]

I'm going to take him far far away from the twee LoTR elfy default, that's for sure! :D I haven't been this excited in a while!

Lovely fit for the character, wow. I also like the expressive quality of your sketches.

[aaronstjames]

:) Sketches are sketchy, but I was always more interested in capturing mood than actually finishing anything. Thus my failure as a portrait painter!

That Roke is really going to work splendidly, I think! Congrats!

[aaronstjames]

I do too! It's odd to have another super-clean Fairyland face sculpt in the group, but I think my face-up will bring him around to work with the dominant Volks and Soom styles here.
