Scar and wound realism on sex dolls focuses on texture, color, and placement to convey history without suggesting harm. The approach is to build gentle, believable textures that mimic healed tissue or cosmetic scar revision. Start with subtle color variation: slightly different tones from surrounding skin can simulate the aging of scar tissue. Use a fine brush to apply pinpoint stippling or centered shading that tapers toward the edges, creating a gentle irregularity rather than a flat patch.
Texture is key. Real scars often have tiny raised lines or irregularities. A light, raised texture using a seam-line or fine brush can reproduce this effect, followed by careful blending to prevent obvious ridges. If you want scar tissue to look like a healed, flat mark, focus on smooth, pale shading with a faint gloss to imply scar tissue’s shinier, less elastic surface.
Placement should feel natural within the body’s geography. Common areas include the shoulders, abdomen, or along limbs where a fade-in scar might occur. Always ensure that the scarring aligns with the overall anatomy and lighting of the doll. Protective finishes help maintain color and texture over time, resisting wear from handling and cleaning. Subtlety and restraint yield the most convincing results.
