my first hexie (wip)

[lobb]

This is my first hexie! She's supposed to be inspired by pink Monchichi toys (example). I'm not trying to make her look 100% identical to it, just going for a similar style.

I'm still playing around with different hair textures, though right now I'm using one from here.

I'm playing around with the head size to make them more visible, but she has the lovebuns from hexcapades.

I tried to use the cat tail found here and it didn't work. I might try to fix it or I might leave the little pink pompom xD

The next things I'll do will be:

-- experimenting with the freckle size to make them more visible

-- adding some hair tattoos (does anyone have any good ones? I found some cute bow ones but the site is down and the files aren't archived )

Thanks for reading! Any feedback or advice is welcome. And thanks to Thor for the tips and moral support!

Fantastic job! How ickle and cute is she!! Definitely some cute bow bmps would finish the look off!

Do you have a paint shop software of some kind? It can be cute easy to make little pixel bmps!

Such a cute idea!! I love it.

Are those the most recent photos with the poofy arms that I helped you with on Discord?

(Haha I realized we discussed this all on Duke's Group Discord-- we should probably have discussed on MILK Discord-- did you ever figure out how to join?)

Thank you! I'm not sure if I should add some bow bmps or instead just use accessory bows so I can rotate them, and give them other bmps and hair stuff

I have GIMP and Paint.net so hopefully that will work!

Yes!! I might make the arms even poofier, though. I keep forgetting about the Milk discord and its link. I'm bad at keeping up with Discord outside of DG ahahaha.

AW THE PINK FUR WITH THE LOVEBUNS <3 this is very cute and very seasonally appropriate being that it's valentine's day soon!! i love.

edit: OH also, riley's codes are a little different than standard ones as she typically connects all of the balls to each other rather than the main ball they are coming out from so you may need to do a bit of re-linezing in order to make it work! i think in the past i also had to put her code first before any other parts for it to work.

Thank you! I might give them another shot.

I also briefly removed the lovebuns since I was having trouble resizing them properly. They look too small when her fur is puffy, but just resizing them made them blobby, so I'll have to figure that out soon.

This is what she's looking like right now. The bows aren't .bmps, they're accessories. I might just keep her hair without any .bmp accessories so I can swap them out more easily to match her outfits and stuff. The #1 thing I have to figure out is how to make the freckles appear. I used the freckle generator and tried to resize them but they're just not visible. Maybe size 4 or 8 is just not big enough? Hm.

EDIT: Her current buns are by Sami on the babyz.org hexed hair section

Thank you so much! Once I'm done, I'll take requests for ones with different eyes or fur, so I can give you one if you'd like!
