Finished my new Narae's tights and underwear, and thought I'd take a photo of her with her two sisters. They are all so different! I'm not sure what sculpt the older two are - I always thought they were the "Classic Narae", but apparently there's several slightly different molds. Narae, on the right, who was my second BJD ever, is an older version, in yellowed, golden beige French resin. Aeran, on the left, is also an older doll, with tan French resin that hasn't yellowed at all. She's going to need a new faceup eventually because of the damage I caused when hair-spray reacted with her sealer last spring. And then there's my new Butterfly Narae, in D-Storic's real skin French resin. She's going to need a new name to distinguish her from her sisters. I'm terrible at naming things, so maybe she'll just stay "Butterfly". What I find especially interesting is how each girl looks progressively more realistic, and less doll-like. Maybe it's the sculpt, or maybe it's the faceup, or maybe it's both.

They are all so beautiful together. I am tempted to repaint my girl now and do her without the freckles. Ah alas every time I look at your lovely girls I am astonished that I painted them .

Yes, they are all your work, and I LOVE them! Your Narae is beautiful too, and her freckles give her a younger look that fits so well with your other younger-looking MSDs.
