Yesterday, several people were thrown into a shock when Stardoll decided to...update the face shapes.
To be quite honest, 'update' is a bit of an understatement.

After observing several posts that complained about the new change, I decided to take a look for myself.

| The faces that Stardoll has changed in shading |
The face shapes on the second page seemed to have not been changed yet, I really hope not because I wouldn't exactly want a look that's similar to this:

Agh! What is that, I ask you? The shading on the doll looks awkward, with a rather odd color that is spread across the forehead. The way Stardoll has shaded without much blending makes it look like the doll is holding something in her mouth. I think we can all agree that the most unattractive characteristic of this face is probably the upside-down 'U' right in the place of the mouth.
Very unattractive, indeed.
But wait, there's more!

Anybody want a chin plumping? (if such a thing exists)
And as Mandylou4 stated here:
"They could have at least blended out the random line on the chin!"
I'm honestly dumbfounded to see that Stardoll even thought about updating the faces like this. I mean, a ton of graphic designers we see in the blogosphere can do so much better than this. Stardoll has turned into some sort of laughingstock by attempting to re-shade the face shapes.
What do you think?
Has Stardoll done well with the new shading?
This is a disaster of stardoll ,coming from stardoll is not strange anymore because lately it has not done anything brilliant.
ReplyDeleteForgot to say i like the post :D
ReplyDeleteAfter the change, I can officially say stardoll no longer hires "professional" graphic designers... I mean, really?
ReplyDeleteAt least with your skin tone the weird nose shading isn't as visible. I have mine set at the palest setting available so it just looks like someone scribbled over the face with eyeliner. :(
ReplyDeleteI forgot to add...
ReplyDeleteWe need some blotting paper for those oily foreheads too!
I really hope stardoll will soon understand what they have done.
ReplyDeletei think from the face shading looks great on a mid skin tone from afar
