Wearables Cyberpunk boys - Wig for my ANS Jinwu- 03/10/2025

Hello everyone! First project journal of 2023! And surely not the last


-----------------
Edit on 08/27/2024 : As I own seldom dolls in my cyberpunk universe, and that I slowly work on them, I think I will gather the males in this thread, and the females in the one of my Amanda.
The boys are physically 3 only, currently. My Venitu, whose customization is more or less competed since 2023, my Cat's doll Tove and my ANother Secret I'm. I bought a fourth this year, an ANS Jinwu, but I didn't get him yet. They are named Cadastre, Piotr, Beast and Io.

-----------------
Cadastre :

​

With two friends, we challenged ourself to complete some customizations in 2023. First deadline is on march 15th! I choose my Venitu.
Poor guy is uncomplete since 2015 (the year I bought him secondhand). I always had mixed feelings towards him. He is an unevenly yellowed fellow in oriental skin and I feel like I paid far too much for him (but nobody forced me to buy him to begin with, right? ^^'). As far as I like Venitu, I never was very happy with mine.
I tried to sell him last year, but finally he stayed with me. So I think it is time I make something out of him.

Most of the work on him will be aesthetics. I may redo his wig too, but I'll see that later, as I do not really have an idea for his new wig yet.

Here is his previous look:

​

I want to stick to the general idea, but with better skills.
What I'd like to do:

• scar in 3D (done)
• new faceup (previous was from 2015) (done)
• manicures (2/2 done)
• bust blush (done)
• maybe pedicure, if I find the will
• chest tatoo (done)
• arms tattoos (done)
• new wig (previous is from 2015 or 2016)

Currently I'm painting his bust blush and manicure (one of the two). I also removed his faceup, and am making the scar in 3D (previous was only painted).

The manicure looks like this:



And the scar like this (my mnf Ante squats in the picture ):




Piotr:

​

Piotr is one of the main character of this universe. He is a russian contract killer, working for chinese triades in the american empire.

What I'd like to do:

• faceup (in progress)
• manicures (3/4 hands done)
• right arm modifications
• bust blush
• chest tatoo
• back tattoo
• arm tattoos
• wig (done on 09/19/2024)

The faceup is in progress since years. I stopped it because I haven't made his wig, and want matching eyebrows. His body (A dollshe arsene one, if I remember well) is also since years at a friend's home, for modifications.


Beast:

​

Best (Bill from his real name) is an experienced detective, a 45y cyborg.

What I'd like to do:

• faceup (made some years before)
• manicure
• bust blush
• tattoos
• wig (done on 08/26/2024)

Io:

​

Picture is from the previous shell (a LLT Roderich on Spiritdoll body)

What I'd like to do, when I'll get him:

• faceups (done on November 2024)
• manicure
• bust blush
• tattoos
• wig (in progress)

Thank you for looking!

 

@wendymoira I hope he will be better after than before

@Havra Ooooh you own a Venitu? I'm sure he will be handsome when you will have painted him. Thank you for the hands!

I was eager to begin the tatto work - even if I absolutely have no idea of what I will do on the arms. Blush and tattoo are in progress on the chest:



Thank you for looking!

 

Thank you @AlisonVonderland ! I'm quite lazy for dolls tattoos too. I have so many dolls waiting for their tattoos!



I finished his chest tattoo! Currently I'm drawing sketches for his arms.

 

Faceup is also in progress now!



And I will begin arm blush this evening.

 

I did not find the will to begin arms blush last evenings
But I continued the faceup :

 

Faceup is nearly finished! And I finally begin the arms' blush, yeah

Here is the faceup only missing last layer of sealant and some gloss:

 

Aaaaaand arm tattoo in progress! I begin the sketch on left arm.



Now I don't know if I begin its painting or if I do sketch on second arm before (it will be a symmetrical one)

 

Still in progress! It already asked 3 hours of painting, + a little more hours for sketching. I'm afraid of the amount of time it will require!

 

Thank you! I hope to give the same depth to the arms tattoos ^_^

You're welcome! It does not bother me to share WIP, it's more that I usually forget to take in progress pictures
And thank you so much for the compliment!

Thank you! I like a lot WIP pictures, but I feel like people doesn't enjoy it as much as I do. So It's great if you like it!



I nearly forgot to share the finished faceup:

 

And still in progress for the arm tattoo!



Second arm is also in progress, one step further behind. But no pic currently.

 

It's nearly finished! For one arm. And I have the other to finish. And the two forearms to begin.

 

Thank you very much @Vampurrr !

The arms are currently in this state :



One is finished and the other is going well

 

Arms' tattoos finished, or nearly! They only miss a layer of sealant
Now I need to begin the forearms, ahah.

 

Thank you very much! ^_^

Thank you!

I have begin one forearm! I need to make the sketch on the second one now.



Meanwhile I'm also working on the manicures:

 

Thank you @wanderingstar ! I can't wait to reassemble him

Currently I'm working on both forearms. But left is more advanced than right (and like for arms, no pic of right forearm currently):

 

@Marcille Thank you so much! I'm glad it already looks nice, and can't wait to put my doll together again!

I have less than a week left, gasp!

 

Tomorrow is the deadline for this challenge... and I won't do it in time. My heating is broken (totally, since last week) so I can't put sealant.
Too bad!

Here are the forearms waiting for their layers of sealant:

 

Thank you @Lillith !

Last month was awful, I could work only two weeks on 4. But april begins better, and I have finally put him all together again! He only miss a new wig, but the old still looks good so I'm not that much in a hurry for making te new one.

​

 

That's a huge compliment, thank you!

Thank you so much for your kind comment!

Thank you! ^_^

 

Hi everyone! I'm dusting this thread, adding the other boys of my cyberpunk universe! I seldomly work on them, as I seldomly show them. I like them through, they are older characters than all my ogres or steampunk guys.

I won't go into the reasons why, but I needed to take my mind off things this weekend, so I set about making my ANS I'm's wig. I finished it yesterday.

​

He waited only six years before I made it, that's not soooo long, is it? ​

 

Thank you for the compliment ^^

Thank you very much!

Thanks a lot! I have only a few cyberpunk-theme dolls, and they are somewhat post apo, but I still like them a lot (their characters are older than the others).



This time it's because I catched a cold that I did another wig for one of my left out cyberpunk guys. This one was waiting since 5 years 'only', and his faceup is still unfinished.

​

He is a Cat's doll Tove, and he has the perfect face for my character IMO! He previously was shelled in an Another Secret Mr Rabbit and I wanted to keep the small eyes and long face.

​

 

@exiel You can see more pic of him on my instagram (link in my signature), if you want! I used alpaca for this wig. And thank you, I do feel better!

 

Some news! I get my new Io, an ANother Secret JinWu in tan skin, like a month ago ^^

I began the faceups asap, and a little too soon. The weather wasn't great ( too much humidity) and now I have problems on the finished faceups. They won't last long, I fear.

Here is a picture in progress:

​

And the faceups completed:

​

Now I need to make his wig ^^

Thank you for looking!

 

Thank you @demonslawa ! I hope you are patient, I have too many projects and not enough free time ^^'

Wig is in progress for Io!

​

I'm using hair extensions. He will have very long hair! And the braids are going to take me so much time...

 

Thank you very much! Yes it took forever, but now it's done!

​

I tried a new glue for the finishing touches, and I still need to understand how to apply it to have it less visible. But for a first try with it it will do the job.

Thank you for looking!
