Guppy

Face-up artist(s):

Me (BlueRoseArkelle - C|M)

Modifications artist(s):

Me (BlueRoseArkelle - C|M)

Date of acquisition:

April 7th, 2017

Provenance:

Purchased by me through DDE upon first release of the sculpt

Reason for choice:

I got so much inspiration from the sculpt and could vividly imagine three different characters that would suit it! I also had never owned a complete SD size doll before ordering them so I thought a smaller SD like the F60Moe would be a great way to start.

Best Points:

I love the aesthetics and posability of the F60Moe body, especially that it stands rock solid and even on one leg! I honestly don't really care for the original Minifee version (Liria) all that much, but I adore Cygne's face as I feel its better translates into a larger, more mature size and the mouth appears to be more balanced.

Worst Points:

I didn't care so much for the way the original shape of Cygne's nose caught the light from certain angles and how rounded it was at the end so I ended up modifying it slightly

Eyes:

Mako Eyes OZ-008

Wig:

They have two wigs currently and they are both made by me. The one in the picture is made with white yarn and black suri alpaca (with glitter!)

Favourite colours:

Black and white

Fashion style(s):

I typically imagine them in rather feminine and fantasy inspired clothes, but I also like to dress them in more modern street fashion too. They were originally born a Siren in the sea so clothes were unnecessary for them for most of their life, but once they obtain human legs to walk upon the land, I interpret their character as one who is usually dressed by other people so they don't really have too much of a preference of their own.

Name story:

"Guppy" is not their actual name, but simply a silly, cute, diminutive nickname that another character in their story gives to them and constantly refers to them as. Since they are unable to speak or write what their name actually is, this nickname supersedes their original birth name. "Guppy" is of course a species of tiny fish and is sometimes used as a playful insult by seafaring folk to refer to a small or inexperienced person, typically a child. They are a small, naive, and innocent little Siren (mermaid) so calling them Guppy is both in reference to their naiveté, small stature and of their...err, literally fishy origin.

Character age:

Around 16

Character gender:

Technically they are male, but it is only really relevant to their backstory and not so much to them as they currently are. I typically use them/they pronons, but it is fine to use either he or she since cannonically they would not care.

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

Will add a proper character explanation here once i've figured it out more haha~
