Light and L

This is Light and L from Death Note. Light is teasing L with an apple. L is deciding what goodies to eat first. I should've gotten better shots of their faces.

You can't see it really, but one table leg was a little shorter, so I made a magazine (with Misa Misa - pictured below) to stick under it. I'm particularly proud of the magazine. It's smaller than any of the food. (It's about as wide as the width of a pencil.) I had to paint it with a needle.

I accidently made Light a tad too tall. (I figured L was hunched, so make him a little bigger. Oops!) I don't like Light's hair. His hands are better than L's, but I don't like his overall pose. I'm proud that the table worked out so well. I didn't stick the cherries on the table 'cus they were a little too big and there wasn't room anyway.

The faces were one of the hardest things 'cus Kairi would keep hanging on me and bumping me. I had to re-do those more than once. I had originally planned on leaving the skin the color it was, but L wasn't pale enough, and the super sculpey got a tad toasty ('cus I like it to be hard enough that if something bumps it, or it falls, it won't leave a mark), so it was the wrong color. I had to paint over the skin, even though I had the faces just right, and then touch-up and re-do parts for days.

The food was originally all done with normal sculpey, but I decided to re-do them with colored sculpey so it wouldn't take forever to paint them, and they actually turned out really well. Light and L are super sculpey, and I did use a little normal sculpey on the food (though not much).
