Radiant Child Remi and Monsieur Z Jungle Fever by Integrity Toys
Remi and Nessa (Monsieur Z Jungle Fever) have united as a couple. I am not sure why they formed an attraction. Maybe their safari-style attire is the reason, or maybe Remi was attracted to Nessa's caricature eyes, which are still obvious despite the recent color change of her pupils.
For a hot minute I thought about darkening the corner whites of her eyes to give her a more normal-eye appearance. Using Brother's makeup was a consideration, but before doing that I thought I'd ask Son to Photoshop this close-up image I took of the new couple to give me an idea of what Nessa would look like with scleral darkening.

I explained to him what I wanted to achieve: "I want her to look more like a character doll instead of a caricature." After his incredulous, "She's a doll," reply, I explained, "I know, but look at his face. He looks like a real person; she doesn't. That's the look I want... real." His "Oh," meant he got it and didn't think I was gone all the way off the deep end.
Well, what he did in Photoshop convinces me that I will leave well enough alone or at least not take an eye makeover to such extremes. If Nessa looks like a caricature now, she definitely looks like something from somewhere beyond after Son's Photoshop interpretation of what "real" looks like.
