If you think this is messy...
Apr. 2nd, 2007 06:53 pm...you should have seen it before I cleaned it up with the paint remover. I am returning to my dolly roots lately with some 1:6 makeovers. Using BBI's latest issue of the Perfect Bodies, I'm making yet another head for my 1:6 Frank doll. I repainted the eyes brown and made them glance to the side. I also added shading around eyes and nose with paint. The eye shadow, blush and lip shading is done with pastels. Stupendously enough, I'm actually much better with pastels now than I used to be. I still need to find some appropriately curly, dark brown hair with in-scale, small curls...
