Help! Best / Most Versatile Male LeLutka Head?

[Scylla Rhiadra]

So, I think I might invest in a new men's head from LeLutka for photo alts. I am currently using Alain, which is fine (hey, it was free!), but I want to mix things up a bit.

I own something like 8 different LeLutka female heads, and keep coming back to Avalon because it seems the easiest to make look good (and also seems to have the most skins made just for it).

Is there an equivalent to Avalon in the LeLutka line for men?

Skyler and Eon are the most popular I think. You will find skins based on them more frequently than the other heads.

Maybe? It's really, really going to depend on what type of look you're going for. 

Show me photos of what u want to look like, girrrrrrrrrrrl. I've demoed most of them.

I'll also point you toward the Genus male heads (I have not yet demoed those, however), just because those are freaking gorgeous and currently on sale and they're now making male morphs, so you can mix and match the head shape, eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. 👀

Edit: Alain is already kinda gorgeous, too, I'm just sayin'. You need to try him on with some Stray Dog skins I'm just sayin'.

No idea. Different from Alain (which, yes, is quite nice!)

Probably not lantern-jawed and "tough" looking? Maybe actually a bit . . . not gorgeous? But realistic?

I've thought about the Genus ones. Maybe.

Not gorgeous but realistic, lol. 

Show me a photo.

Or at least give me an age range to work with here. A LOT of those heads are versatile and very realistic, but I can help narrow it down if I have a general idea.

Oh god. Ok, you're going to insist on actual specifics from me, are you?

/me whines pitifully

Let's say for argument's sake someone in their 40s or 50s. Let me see what I can come up with!

Ok.

And yes, actually, he's pretty attractive. I'm weak.

Ooooooo. Yaaas, we can do that!

Have you seen Genus Classic M002 + the Klaus skin? 👀 He's close-ish!

 

Lemme take a look around at some other options here...gimme a few mins...

[Ayashe Ninetails]

Some more that may be flexible enough to get you into a similar range with the right skins and addons.

 

Quinn is INSANELY flexible. You'll remember this photo I made with it (maybe). And perhaps this one.

 

 

 

 

And lastly, this one's Leonardo, if you picked up the gift last year.

Ok, thank you! These are helpful!!!

Very welcome! Also, go nuts trying skin demos. I love Stray Dog for creating older looks. The shading and details are so good for it. But try everything everywhere! Don't forget to check AK's skins, too.

Oh good lord. I've got the weekend, and that's it!

PRESSURE!

Anyway, you've been brilliant. TY again!

If you want gorgeous and realistic, the Genus ones will do it. Either that or Lelutka Eon, that's what my alt wears and I perv on him all the time.

The Classic M002 is ridiculously cheap right now, so I'm going to try it!

I had the opposite experience with Quinn. I tried the demo and found no adjustment to the shape or skin was able to remove the sunken eye look 🤔

dig through the shapes section for specific heads at the MP, see hundreds of possibilities for each head. In a few weeks most likely again a boost when/if the new free head gets released.
Don't only look at the promoted skins, many skinmakers, as example Voguel,  wich are compatible with Not Found bodyskins, don't create for specific heads, but their skins are very usable. ( and weekly very inexpensive weekend sale)

Yes, I found Voguel almost too realistic 😅. I went back to my regular not found skin.

Excellent advice, and thank you! Unfortunately, of course, this is also a bit time sensitive.

I think if I get the Genus head, and maybe Quinn, which I liked the look of, I can play around with some different skins and get some nice variations!

ETA. I've actually only just discovered Voguel! They're good!

(I showed a male friend the pic of the M002 with Klaus skin, both of which I just bought, and he's being VERY sniffy about it!)

Thanks for mentioning the Genus sale btw, just got my alt the Babyface M002 for 75 percent off, he looks so pretty.

IKR? So inexpensive! I barely flinched at all!

I've used Lelutka Alain for quite some time, then switched to Quinn but since they've released Kris (2023 free gift), I'm only using that one.

LOGO has one called Noel, I think, that's pretty good too and it's EvoX-enabled.

I quite like Alain, but Quin looks like a different look, so I think I'll get that as well.

Somehow I missed Kris, I think!

I love the nose on the Aaron head. I'd wanted something like that in SL for ages and couldn't find it. But when I finally tried on the head, I was disappointed by the eyebrows. No matter how I tried to edit them, and no matter which shape I used, the browbone and eyebrows still looked furrowed and arched. I was unable to tame them. Maybe I did something wrong? I gave up on it and ended up not buying it - beware. I like all of the other features of this head, though. It's good to finally have an option for those of us who don't want to have "perfect," modelesque straight noses in SL.

Is it a good head? Yeah. Is it versatile? Not very much, in my personal opinion.

But it does resemble the inspiration picture that @Scylla Rhiadra mentioned, so, for those purposes, I agree that this is also an option to consider.

Lelutka Eon is also what my alt wears, and I highly recommend it. It's a good, fairly versatile head.

Here's how I've used it so far:

I love this head. Have never needed another one.
