A break from the regular crew of the Glade to introduce a new guy, who I'm not sure will fit in the Glade or into another world. He's SartoriaJ's mini Jude head in amber beige, with the LeStat face up. I got the full LeStat outfit and boots as well. This morning I decided to tackle getting the outfit on. I had read previous reports from other owners about the boots not fitting well, so was a little worried about how big of a job it would be to try and get them on. The reports didn't disappoint, they were a BEAR to get on, but get them on I did and armed with tweezers got them buckled as well. He will not be taking them off anytime in the near future (sorry mini Jamie). I have his head on an Iple FID muscle body, the only Iple FID body I have in RS. The match is good. I was a little worried about that from some of the posts I've read from other owners as well. I might like him a little better on the model body I think, but don't have one of those yet. He might work on the Raccoon body as well, haven't tried that yet, as Koehlon doesn't want to share. We tried a couple of wigs from our stash. I first put a blonde Monique "Junior" on him, and while I like the style, I'm not sure I'm sold on him as a blonde.
His eyebrows give him a very exotic feel about him. As a blonde he looks like he could be of Viking descent. I love the LeStat shirt...…….the pants however lace up the back and don't fully cover that Iple muscle body tush. There is quite a bit of gapping. I imagine they would fit the model body better, but as stated before, I don't have one of those yet.
The second wig I tried on him was a Monique Pretty girl in Ginger brown. I like this color much better for him I think.
He still needs a name and a storyline. I do like him in the period clothing though, so he will probably show up in the Glade again at some point...……..or I guess he could fit into the Outlander world as well. If he was normal resin he could make a good Lord John on the model body. A pic below of the full look including the gorgeous, but hard to get on boots!
Love the sculpt and face-up. And like you, I prefer him in the ginger brown wig. The blonde's not bad, I just like the brown better. Are those the MSD Admiral boots? I couldn't get them on the FID muscle body either. I still don't have a model body to try them on and didn't think to try them on the Raccoon body, which does have smaller feet (by 0.5 cm) although I'm not sure who has the wider calf muscle. I hope you find a role for him in either The Glade or Outlander.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are the admiral boots. While I got them on, I think they will be a BEAR to get off, so he will wear them for a while! He will find a role somewhere...………..just not sure what I want it to be yet.
DeleteHe reminds me a little bit of the actor who played Stephen Bonnet. The Lestat outfit would work well for a pirate. Lord John works too.
DeleteI'm leaning towards putting him in the Glade world. I can give Jamie the shirt he's wearing now and put this guy in a tunic. ( And not have to take off the boots, lol!) Just trying to work out where he will play in the story.)
