Building a custom Silicone Head (Coeros)

[Mishka]

As some may know, I am having a head built by Coeros. They are sponsoring the production and I will show it off at the next doll meet and also describe the process of doing this and what it all takes.

I initially wanted a custom head - one that met certain criteria, and Coeros offers custom doll and head production. So after I approached them with my prototype face from photoshop/flux, I asked them if they could make me a head just like in the photos. I ran a few head ideas that I made in Flux, an image generator, and found something that I felt matched my aesthetic

Concept art!

These two are the final candidates, and I ended up painting in the make-up I desired - such as blush, eye-liner, eye-lashes, and 2-tone lip color.

It’s actually really important to me to have the head be as close to the renderings, and that’s where I approached Coeros about if they could do this.
They discussed this with their team, and eventually told me they can do this.
So I went and discussed business plans with them to see what they can do if we work as a team, cooperating together, and then have them develop the head, and me, promote them.

The head shown is a cosplay style head, and suits my style and tastes. She will have a natural skin tone, that will compliment other dolls I have in a similar 160+ cm size.

First and foremost, she will be matched to a new custom doll, I am having (159cm) made by RealLady (IT)
See images below .

she will be customized as well, with a very unique head shown below, but that custom head (shown below) is entirely separate from the one Coeros is making, but I wanted you to see what body she will be matched to.

The new body will require a head of a certain dimension, X/Y axis, and color matched as well, so that will require sending Coeros a head from IT so they can paint the new head exactly the correct color tone.

At this point, I have received v.2 of the prototype head, and I believe this new version (v.2) will be the final release candidate.
The next stage will be a 3D clay/ or similar reproduction, and then a negative mold made and pouring of the silicone.

I have a video made, but I am going to need Coeros’ approval to release it.

As the process continues, I will keep you up to date

the head looks great, and the body looks real

Fascinating work flow, Mishka. I may take that route eventually if I cannot find an accurate representation of my planned Alexis 2.0. She exists exactly the way I want her in Second Life. I look forward to following your process. Thanks for sharing.

Looking forward to seeing this project progress!

[Woolie]

that is a great body choice as well!!

[Mishka]

The head is coming along really well. We are in the mold making stage. The inner structure is done, and next will be the outer core, then the silicone gets poured.

Here’s V1

I had them redo the ears, nose, lips and eyes - essentially redo the entire head
These were major revisions, but wait till you see how each revision improves.

Face is more rounder, close to the golden ratio, and still has issues with lips

Final revision 3

The final one is done, and after texturing her, the form matches the original

Very cool! Can’t wait to see and compare the finished product!

[Mishka]

Looks like the head may be completed next week!. I don’t have any more pics, but they promised to provide some of the next stages.. Excited!

[Mishka]

So the head is finally finished and being sent out. Here’s the head with and without hair.

I may replace the eyelashes with more pronounced cosplay lashes, but I’ll need to see the head first, as the camera angles play a large role here. Regarding the wig, I will bring a few with me, and see which fit her the best

From a Concept, shown below!

W W she looks great

I managed to get a few photos of the new head teamed up with the IT body. It made a great combo, and was specifically made to work with this body.
I can talk about the body for days as it’s very nice and looks to be the pinnacle of realism at this time. I can post about the body at a different time

The new face is very beautiful and I will plan to make another.
I used a cosplay wig provided by Coeros and the head has more eyeshadow and lip gloss for these pics. Overall, I’m fully convinced Coeros can make dreams come alive, and just to go from a few sample photos to a real silicone head is amazing. Not many people have done this, and although very expensive, it does offer a way to remake a face from your past or a face you just love to look at.
