#DollModification

[the-enzyme]

I promise I didn't ask myself, " can I make a hyper-cutesy-looking-doll, hyper-creepy-looking, or what!" Lol! I always wanted to try my hand at repainting one of the Lol OMG dolls, particularly the male ones. When I got my Rocker Boi back when the doll released a few years ago, I thought he would be perfect for me to try. I got two, so I could keep one in box (he comes with Punk Girl). Sadly, he is a plastic shade of sun-burned red IRL. So, I kept putting that repaint off. I did make a mockup, and even planned on replacing his default body with the Mattel BTS body (I own too many, and don't really need any of them now! Lol!). His default body is too tiny for my taste, I would rather have a taller broader version of it, but there's nothing of the sort, that I know of. I am not a fan of the BTS body either, but that's probably the palest mass-produced body I own too many of, that I don't have to import and already have a million of them. So, I'll be keeping this dude on that body for a while.

My mockup for this repaint/mod has tinier eyes, and chipmunk cheeks. I don't know why I did that with the cheeks, there's no way in hell I can do that to this sculpt. I do want him to have much smaller eyes though. But I had to fill in the sculpted eyes with my old rusty Aves Apoxie Sculpt a million years ago, when I got this doll, because the LoL OMG eyes are massive!! And they are literally sculpted to be deeply carved onto the head. I had a huge pain in the lower back sanding all of that as flat as possible, without making the sculpt completely flat or ruin it in the way. I still need to mod/flatten it a bit further (the eye area), but I didn't have to add any filler as I had feared. The first time I modified him, and repainted him, I feared I had done a sh1tty job because my Apoxie was so old. However, I lucky didn't had to do any additional, additive mods. Just needed to sand a million years more! And I'll probably need to sand even further to get the tiny eyes I want, next time!

That will be the next time I am feeling energetic! I layered the paint way too thin at first, to match the much paler BTS body, so I kind of shot myself on the foot doing that. I do appreciate texture on realistic HS, but not on hyper-sylized ones as much. At least, not bumpy texture. I don't mind painted/faux/pigmented on texture on stylized heads, but I kind of mind this kind of thick texture from too many layers of paint (love it on 1:6 realistic-ish heads, but not on melon-headed anime-ish ones). It was my mistake, however. The next time I'll probably try to get myself a can of white acrylic spray paint first, or go thicker on my initial paint layers, for the color matching aspect. He's a vampire, so I don't want texture of any kind of him, I just want him to look dead-pasty-white-kind-of-pale, and I'll probably rebody him by then. I quite like him for now, I wish there was no texture to speak of, but live and learn I always say! (;

My first custom Rapunzel doll.💕 She’s up for sale! $100 + shipping. I may not be able to ship her out until later this week since I’m still hoping to have one last photoshoot for her, But DM me if you’re interested! She has a 100% original faceup and a partial reroot. The last three pics show some slight imperfections. The nightgown is secondhand so it has a few little scuffs and a small mark on the front. And although I partially rerooted her to have longer hair I left most of her original hair in place, so sometimes the shorter hair peeks through, but It’s usually not noticeable! I made her to represent the movie scene where baby Rapunzel sneaks out of bed to watch the lanterns from her window, with the lanterns reflected in her eyes! 💛✨

Bunny hands v2.1! This time with the help of @sugru ! 😄 Sugru’s texture is really soft & sticky (almost like air clay except sugru doesn’t expand as much). I ended up sculpting a skeleton using blutack before layering Sugru on top of it (black for body & arms, white for hands). Sugru sets firm yet still with some memory (thanks to the internal blutack), and it doesn’t break as easily as air clay. Annnnd I had to add a #totoro sticker for good measure ☺️ — #toysculpture #sugru #sugruart #blutack #bostik #diyactionfigures #zhngmytoy #stayreal #bunny #兔兔公仔 #酷黑小兔 #toydiy #diy #toysofinstagram #toymodel #toysagram #miniaturemodel #workinprogress #toymodification #dollmodification #failureisthekeytosuccess #keepfailingtosucceed

My boy, Edgar. Was letting his sealant harden after his dye job and custom paint, so i have never seen him assembled finished. He was more gorgeous than i had planned. Dismantled him shortly after so i could suede his joints to prevent rubbing. I swear i have more pictures of him, including his paint on his back

I was commissioned by @marydotdesign to fix up & face up these official miraculous ladybug dolls, and I think they turned out pretty good 😉
