"Spare me the bullshit."

modernwizardI improvised a sports bra for Isabel using a stretchy cropped tank top. Then I cut up a quarter of a tissue into strips, balled it up, then stuck it in each of her cups. Look -- breast forms! And she'll still fit into most of the clothes that I tried on previously.
I think I'm done in terms of body mods for fat bodies. I could add sculpted fats around the hips and ass, but then that would reduce the number of easily available clothes she would fit in. I am therefore settling for a short, stocky body with a long thick torso and short, chubby limbs and neck. I actually like the concept of Isabel [and Carter] having breast forms instead of sculpted breasts, as the breast forms will compress more realistically.
So, to make a 1:6 scale adult fat doll body, i originally thought that I would use a 1:3 scale toddler body and extremities from a 1:6 scale adult body. At the prospect of sawing apart limbs and splicing them with the help of Aves Apoxie Sculpt, laziness overwhelmed me. Fortunately, I came across the 5StarDoll 1:3 scale toddler body, which had small, delicate hands and feet. I first tried swapping 1:6 scale adult hands and feet onto the 5StarDoll body, but they were actually too small. The original 5StarDoll hands and feet actually looked fine, and the only modding I ended up doing was to cut down and taper the neck to look more proportional to a 1:6 scale adult head. Since I did not attach breast forms to the doll, I am not counting them as a mod.
The title of this entry comes from Isabel's expression. If there was ever a terminally unimpressed and skeptical look, she's giving it, right there.
As much as the pissy Doona Ryung faceplate appealed to me in the official photos, when I got her in hand, I was startled by how young and crabby she looked. I began to doubt that I would be able to transform her into Isabel, a non-crabby woman in her mid-30s. She began to become Isabel when I moved her onto a temporary adult body, found her smirk and added bags under her eyes. I got more of a sense of her when I saw that she rocked nearly every fur wig I stuck on her. But it wasn't until this evening, when I saw her in all her dumpy [that's the word she uses], sarcastic glory, that I knew I had made the right choice. Her face may be round and childlike, but her facial expression, her stance and her whole body are definitely that of a woman in her mid-30s.
