My Size Barbie head vs Liv head. Swap them??

Update.
I'm using the modified Liv head for Navarai who is on hold due to her complex build and I need to be moving soon.
I've devoted some precious time a few evenings a week to upgrade Veronica for the long winter pleasure. She is getting a upper thigh and butt enhancement. She is also getting a sexy new head.

The ebony head has been modified w/a detachable skull piece so I can install glass eyes and wireless speaker. I still have to attach head and bondo in smooth. Paint body. Do some eye liner and brow work, etc.

A few pics from the thigh and butt enhancement.

Legs will kick back more.
Thighs have been lengthened around 1" and legs spread at thighs.
Adding 1/4" + of bondo to butt cheeks and around thighs.
Below marker line will be thigh high black leather boots w/ cotton batting underneath for filler and soft feel.

Hey RK, looks like the enhancements are coming right along.

Nice work!

Is she going to have a new ebony skin color?

Just thought I would throw this out there if you would want a little more hip flexibility.
I found that the 4" steel hemispheres fit equally as well on the original MSB torso.

Thanks MF

Yes, I bought some paint that should match her face pretty closely. The body color is different from her face color now. Hopefully mine will match better or at least be darker.

I'm actually just about done w/ the putty on the legs so don't want to get another modification going. I'm saving the final results & pics for a new thread most likely. I started the mods about 3 months ago so I've been doll-less and it's driving me nuts to get her done. I attached the head last night. Hopefully by the end of this week she'll be back in action.
