Thank you! I made 20+ promo images for the UAH using all sorts of figures, and it was a lot of fun. I just have to create a few more morphs for the Chibi head and it's ready to go. ^^

Your promo images are a big help in seeing what can be done with your product. They pay off that is for sure. I am so glad to OP posted this question to you so now we may have an additional head to use! Very excited about it!

I think heads are way more fun to add to the library than full new figures. Especially when we can attach them to any body we have. For starters, it doesn't compromise our existing wardrobe. The only trick is to match the body texture, but in general, skin tones are enough for most renders - especially with cartoonish characters.

Agree! I do children's book characters a lot so most all my characters are toon characters. So your textures with your heads work great for me!

Oh, the chibi style should work nicely with children's books. They are so cute and expressive. And I think children identify better with characters with big rounded eyes, because they look friendlier. :)

I have not read the whole thread but can this be used with the hivewire big cat to make a sphinx?
Edit Or other non human figures? Probably not a chair? Or maybe a chair? Just took some good sleep medicine so it might be clouding my mind with chairs or beds with human heads? Now I am picturing a bed with an anime head singing to me like a siren sings to a sailor.

Really looking forward to buying the Chibi head, and REALLY hope you keep making more heads, a good animal head with lots of expression would be welcome!

Thank you! I have 3 new products coming to the store very soon before I go back to the Chibi head. It's in my queue list. ^^

So, I was looking at this product in the store, and it looks like a lot of fun, but I was wondering...where did the vendor get the anime-style hair?

I remember there being a lot of anime hair back in the day, but I don't see it any more. A lot of the old Poser web sites are gone now. (I only use Poser, not DS.) If I buy this product, will I be able to find hair for it?
