So I tried my hand at painting a big non eyehole head. I quite liked how she turned out. Yes she is displayed on a torso but there is no body yet T_T. I don't think blonde is her color but I don't own any wigs that remotely fit her and this one at least wasn't sliding off.

Thanks everyone!

I had so many references up when I was painting her. I wanted to make her look super anime. I wish I had colorful wigs to take pics with. Just another thing to go on my mile long wish list.

I'm trying to get my hands on another head so I can try a different style. The big heads are pretty fun but they take a longer time than the smaller heads cause I have so much more area to go over lol.

Your painted heads always impress me :-o She reminds me of someone with that blonde wig hmm..I like the unusual eye color I also use rather unnatural eye colors when painting anime heads. Her eyeshape is beautiful like from the older anime times :-) She got lovely lips too, someday I´ll try my hand at painting bigger heads but x-D I´m not sure how I´m gonna handle so much space x-/

Perfectly symmetrical, you did a fantastic job! A colorful wig would be great, but I think a black one would really bring out those eyes!!
