showing, so her eyes don't look quite so dark. I also tried on a different blonde wig.
I replaced Lily's eyes and went a size smaller to 8 mm. Now there's a bit more white showing, so her eyes don't look quite so dark. I also tried on a different blonde wig. I'm working on a bodice pattern, and found my Narae bodice comes closest, so altered it to fit Lily. Only problem is, Lily has lovely breasts when she's naked, but her nipples are too high on her breasts to fit nicely under clothes, and they show through. I imagine it would look really wrong if she had on a tight stretchy top. The bodice darts end at the fullness of her breast, yet her nipples are above that. So she can't have really low necklines or the nipples will show. They may just have to be sanded off. Ouch! She's so beautiful!

I was thinking that too. But I'm not a big fan of white clothes. But definitely something fantasy Medieval in a light colour.

Wow, that does make a big difference. Good reason to have lots of eyes in lots of colors and sizes. Never know what is going to work best until you try it.

I wish I'd known she would look better with 8 mm, because then I'd have bought her some the same colour as the 10 mm ones I got for her. I really liked those eyes.

She might also make a good Eowyn.

She has some major seam lines, but Junkyspot says right on their site that Limhwa doesn't consider seam lines an issue.

She looks great with the smaller eyes and this wig.
