Is there an item or kind of item that you rarely make an HA without? I'd like to know

For me it's animal parts, whether it's ears, tails, or big partial body mods, and also animal buddies, my HAs just look lonely without a little animal friend

I almost always put glasses on my HAs. I wear them in real life and feel like I look weird without them, and I guess it transferred to Subeta, lol.

BG. Full one, partial, some color thrown in with a cutout or two, anything, but HA just looks bad to me on pure white. I think I did just one like that in 5 years I've been here and it was for Masq when they couldn't stop BGs from appearing in the ballroom and it looked bad, so...

Any of the light and shadow ish items, like and any of the liquid shadow items. I definitely went overboard with it on this HA tho ‘: )

Also, definitely the , can’t live without em.

And freckle items. So, so many freckle items.

For me it's always freckles. I have tried making some HAs without them, but it always looks so off to me.

Freckles. Background.

HAs with no background make my anxiety do weird things. XD

Usually always use a lighting effect (usually a light bulb), and I like to have a background. That and have a sort of sidekick, usually an animal.

Backgrounds

I always try to use one as they make me feel like the HA is complete, lol.

I need a blush and some sort of smiling lipstick. Those two are a must.

The items I would never get rid of — no matter what — must be the Curious Little Dolls. They make the facial features blend so smoothly and perfectly. I frequently use the Ash one and sometimes use the Terra one if I wanna go for a "tan" look. Here is the HA I am currently working on without and with a Curious Little Doll, in this case, Terra... The difference is significant.

Mine always always always need some kind of animal friend! <3

Some sort of non human lower body mod and

Some sort of background (partial or full), some type of blush/freckles to add some color to the face, and something that adds lighting effects like lightbulbs etc

use it on every HA I make

I feel lost without

Blush and lighting effects for me

my go to items are and any of the curious dolls. I'm also another one who can't stand HAs with no background.

I like keeping the same hair and face so I guess it would be about 6 items in total but regardless of my outfit all those items stay the same

it's kind of funny, I usually do my faces with blush/freckles to give color to the face but didn't for some reason with my current HA? I need to go back and add some, she looks a bit plain

Otherwise I also include a background and an animal, whether that be a real or stuffed animal animal.

love the idea of this thread I'm pretty predictable when it comes to making my HA's face and couldn't do it without these: some type of parted lips like: or and recently i love on the cheeks, a type of blush like: and and i usually pair these: with the eyes
