Description A little experiment with colored light... Not that great a shot but I like the effect.

Gosh, I miss natural light. I have some shots I managed to get during the holidays, they just need to be edited. Well, maybe soon.

It's a wonderful and very versatile sculpt, I definitely recommend it! It's a lot more lively in person than in any pictures. I hope you'll get your Cosmo someday And, thanks, the blue light is actually created with a laptop screen (it's a neat little trick!)

His face is gorgeous; I hope I will get one one day! C :
How's the body?~
I was looking it up on the DZ a long while back with a friend (it looked good >_> Is posing alright?~ I have a DZ Mo and he's doing fine for me. My other SD has limited movement.)

I was wondering what it was!
At one point I was thinking computer something~
Maybe I'll try it out sometime 8D.

The body is quite fine, I love all the details (back, neck, hands, feet, hip bones) and the joints work well although elbows tend to twist around in an unnatural way because of the sculpting of the sockets and super-tight strings. :/ It's a small flaw, and otherwise the joints allow very natural and versatile posing, especially the torso joints! I have a few fullbody shots in my livejournal if you want to get a look at how nicely he sits and such: [link]

My Cosmo was strung very tight, so he kept biting and slapping and kicking me (sort of fit the character thus I didn't mind XD But it could be fixed with restringing). I could pose him on one feet srtaight out of the box, and still can even though I've played with him a lot. Only thing that really bothers me is that the nipples are placed awkwardly almost in the middle of the pecs, thus my boy is almost never shirtless even though as a character he should be >_>

That's most of it! I could probably go into even greater detail but this post is getting long and atm I'm at my parents' and don't have my dolls with me. If you want to know more you can always note me Overall I'm very satisfied with the body, even though it has some small flaws, and I'd definitely recommend it if the sculpt aesthetically pleases you because posing-wise it's more than alright.

Gahhh, yes! The body looked really good in the promo pics except I never would've thought his nipples would be placed awkwardly ahhh. Haha >_>. At least he poses great with shirts on.

Thanks for the link to your LJ! Those are some really pretty pics and I love the setup with the chair/etc. They look sgreat~

I haven't been able to do one feet yet OAO Perhaps they are strung tight enough. My SD boy is a bit tight since he slaps a little sometimes.

But sure thing! I'll note you when I have more questions <3 (thanks for the long reply!).

I can't wait to have one of these guys some day. Such a great sculpt!
And I love what you did with him here. The blue looks nice.

Thank you ♥ Do you already have a specific bjd sculpt in mind which you'd like to have or are you still searching?

You're welcome!
I already have an MSD and a DZ SD on the way, but hopefully sometime soon I'll have a DZ Cosmo. I just love the realism of his features <3

I love the blue light is great on his face, and body. It highlights perfectly on him. It's very atmospheric, like he's in deep thought.

Thank you ♥ I really like the details of his sculpt and felt like colored light would highlight them nicely

It definitely does! I didn't recognise the sculpt at first when I first saw this. You make shapes, and curves show, which I haven't noticed before in his sculpt! Definitely means you did a good job!

I actually thought he looked like a Soom Spinel at first XD
