As always guys I much appreciate your stopping by and leaving such encouraging comments. I have to admit I'm bushed and need to get to bed but I just wanted to post a few new pics of Ava taken this afternoon, a few outside before we moved down into my garage/studio. I'm still learning how best to light Ava not being used to working with silicone which reacts differently to the lighting I use with my tpe gals. However when it works then Ava really comes alive. I've had my best results using my LED panels up close with the temp dialed down, here's a few from our little session....

Always great to be in the fresh air, but often more fun to be indoors :whistle:

Honestly, she looks so real, it's almost un-nerving.

I was thinking this too, don't know if it's the head or Arthur's artistry, but wow!

If you put this portrait on some other site, nobody would suspect that it is not a real woman! :lying:

Of course you are real. Otherwise, how could you be so expressive?

Thanks 4891d, Ava is turning out to be quite a surprise in terms of the different looks I can achieve, obviously there's a bit of help from a certain popular app but with lighting and posing etc I can still do quite a bit. Speaking of lighting, yesterday I was mainly using my 2 LED panels as my big spots are up in the house so they struggled a bit for lighting her full length as you can see here so I must get some more done with better lighting.
Hey thanks Rock13 that's really kind of you to say. Once I figured out the best way to light Ava (my first time with silicone) then she did the rest. Aside from the more visible detail I'm really impressed with the implanted hair and eyebrows, they seem very well done.

Truly lovely, Arthur1960... did you apply her freckles or did the manufacturer do that?

Thanks, there's actually some visible skin detail already but I've used FaceApp for the freckles as the new filter they have works really well!
