i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

The head is done, aside from the final paintjob and eyes that im planning to do, but its the build is pretty much finished aside from a bit of mane on the back to hide the head band better.

Im really pleased with how its turned out and how the mechanics work on it. Even fixed the chin rest so its easier to trigger now.

Ill post the finished product once its done.

Since I’ve posted this elsewhere to better explain the mechanics for those that didn’t fully understand the tutorial I posted, I thought I’d post here as well. I also go over the ear mechanics on this.

Basically play around and see what works, but I hope this helps if you’re still struggling.
