Given some of the reviews on the most recent TBLeague products, not to mention my own loose elbow experience with the S28 which seems to reflect the experience others who've posted here have had with the S28/29 series, I've been jittery about purchasing their latest releases, preferring to stick with older models. Nonetheless, I finally broke down and decided to try one of their S32A's with the long legs and slender shoulders. As others have reviewed it already, I won't go into detail other than saying that though a lovely body, the slender shoulders, long legs and shorter arms means it will be difficult to fit in anything that's not a bikini, underwear or made of tight stretchy material. My however the body does seem perfect for doing artistic nude studies, which is what I've decided to show here. I hope this does not offend anyone or violate the posting guidelines.

For the record, I've shot quite a lot of artistic nudes with real models over the last 18 years or so, generally for creative release, but the cost of hiring models and the fact that I no longer have a viable studio space in my current home, not to mention the availability of TBLeague dolls have prompted me to try doing this in 1/6th scale and I like the results so far. I'm a very big fan of the late Peter Gowland's style of B&W nudes incidentally, and so I think the S32 might never acquire any clothes of her own, other than maybe a pair of boots or shoes ;O)
Both the photos here were shot in natural light at high F stop for maximum depth of field, using a tripod to steady the camera. The files were shot in color first to maintain as much data as possible, then a B&W conversion was made in Photoshop, along with some tinkering with the contrasts.
As always, your comments and feedback are much appreciated.
