Project - Normal Girl / Skater Girl

I assume you have the original head sculpt?
My head sculpt ship in a clear box with body. Maybe it is official in some way? from VERYCOOL

That is a Verycool head — but if it was original, the box wouldn’t have been clear. Doesn’t matter, though, she still looks good. The outdoor shots should be cool. I wonder though if the denim shorts aren’t going to “chafe” when she really gets into it…

I suppose my head was original, but have no idea. It was a long way back. Looks the same, from what I remember.

Today Skater Girl turned Oriental..

The reason being..
Phicen / TBLeauge PLSB2021-S45 Suntan ships with an oriental head sculpt.
I thought i would give the oriental head sculpt a try, as it is more in scale with the body, compared to the portrait i wanted to use.

I slapped on some spare red colored shades, which add to the sunny theme of a model skater type.
Some black knee-pads might add something to the charcater.

The blonde hair head sculpt has a new home over on Project Leftovers

To be honest, I like her better this way. I think it is the way the head scales to the body.
By the way, I and I am by no means PC police, apparently "oriental" is considered inappropriate in some circles (though I have never thought it a loaded word, and I doubt you do either). Perhaps "Asian" would be a more neutral term.

The smaller scale works better.

When i use the word 'Oriental' it is to imply people from Japan / China
When i use the word 'Asian' i tend to think of people from Pakistan

Assuming the PC police find the word 'Oriental' offensive, then it fails to make sense, to me atleast

The size of the dark haired sculpt defiantly looks so much better imo   . I think this sculpt suits the character more. As for the previous sculpt, which is a lovely looking head,I think I would use an S23b, but at the end of the day I'm sure you have a body in mind for her, and i cannot wait to see her progress

While i am happy with the smaller size, i am not 100% happy with the portrait.
Can anyone suggest an alternative portrait, remembering to take into account the small than average portrait size required (thanks)

AWESOME ! Lets go hang out !

That looks great!
Knee pads work well on skater types

Nice work, Allotropos!

@Ukshaun, nice skater girls. Nice outfit esp the white G-shock.

@Allotropos, Harley's lock, loaded and ready to roll, literally!
Excellent loadout, I was thinking she should ditch the shades and show off that beautiful face.

If the right (small) portrait shows up in the future, the plan is to swap-out the portrait.

She looks really nice, both yours and Allotropos.

She has turned out great and actually looks very sporty. A good idea with the belly button piercing. This is the first time I've seen something like this on a figure. Please be careful with dyed clothing, sometimes this leaves marks on the TBL body.
Maybe you'll actually take some photos of her outside in the summer, I'd be happy about that.

Harley looks like she could clear her way through a crowded skate park. Great Work. I like her 80 ´ Skaters.
