Everything about my dolls

incredible thrift find. the only lol omg doll i've ever really wanted. hair looks messy but seems manageable. most of the outfit pieces are there but i mostly care about the blue outfit anyway. lip paint has a scratch but i'm p sure i can fix that. she's missing a hand but maybe i can substitute it somehow or 3d print a prosthetic or something

soooo excited to have finished this. this redesign of clair from g1 was done by @sassmaster-artjay (original post) and it really inspired me to make a doll based on it.

i tried to make it as close to the drawing as i possibly could and it was a very fun challenge! i had an absolute blast

the base doll is a g1 ghoulia. i would've loved to do this with a doll that matched the body type more closely but ghoulia is what i had and her skin tone is a pretty good match. plus i've been wanting to do some kind of alt/goth look with a black lip on this ghoulia anyway

i'm also very happy with the face considering i haven't done this a lot before (i had to do two attempts tho bc the first eyes came out wayy wonky lol)

more pics and rambling under the cut!

took out the buns bc they looked a bit messy and i thought it was the perfect opportunity to try out the tiny crimping iron i found at the thrift store

aaaaaaaaaahhhh i didn't expect them till january

these glasses are so cute in theory but

The Percht

Perchten are creatures in Austrian and Bavarian (among others) folklore. They roam from December to January and rattle with bells and chains to cast out the evil spirits of winter. They are not the same as Krampus! But in my experience there is a lot of overlap visually.

I am beyond excited about how this guy came out. Started a year ago and he was chilling as a wip for a long time but now i've finished him just in time. Mask and horns are air dry clay, hair is a mix of doll hair (underneath) and yarn wefts on top and for the beard. i kept the sneakers from the base doll (a jimin bts doll lol) and just painted them because this is not really an animal spirit creature - it's a guy in a costume :P

playing around with some clothes before i style her hair and make her shelf-ready :)

the lighting makes it look like her lip color matches the roses but irl it doesn’t lol

switched their eyes

it took a lot of putting them in (almost) boiling water until i got them back in but they took it surprisingly well. i kind of expected that at least the golden glitter glue eyeshadow on ruby would crack but it held up perfectly despite the intense squeezing of the head lol

violet willow with light customization

ruby with blue eyes

i felt like she needed them to complete that disneybound look lol

Dizzy Descendants

first one is her original outfit, the rest is miscellaneous stuff. i just wanted to try out some things i had lying around (i had high hopes for the overalls bc i’m itching to use them for a doll but i’m not entirely feeling it on this one idk)

another problem is that i have no shoes for her other than the ones she came with lol

little mermaid inspired look

the pants are a little more green irl and initially i had sth a lot more green in mind but this was the only color they had at the store and i couldn’t not use it hehe

the shells are painted with acrylic paint and iridescent powder

i love ruby with her hat on but unfortunately it doesn’t go with this outfit. i still feel like she might need some kind of head accessory but i’m not sure 🤔

i made a simple top and shorts and also gave her a new hairstyle bc i could NOT get those buns back in lmao. i don’t love how the curls came out but i don’t feel like redoing them 😭

also i randomly found these glasses among my mother’s old sewing supplies. the frame is actually metal :D and who knows what they were part of orignially but i’m pretty sure they were destined for sunny hehe
