This part is a hell of a challenge. You must use all your feminine genes to make it right! Mark the main areas to give the hair some weight and look natural and fluid.

Yout though that would be easy, right? No fucking way! Try adding some negative space on the hair, so you can avoid a flat look. You know, its supposed to be hair, not wood.

11. A BODY FOR THE BOOBIES




Ok, you perv! Add a body for those boobies, because they cant fly. Add flowers too, because chicks dig it. Lots of it, mainly if you place on their hair. Like on the movies.
