So I have some Lenore thoughts, I like the idea of her a lot. But I don't think she's worth her price. So here are just some of my thoughts, as well as my doodling out some of those thoughts. I don't think she necessarily needs all these things, it's more that I let my internal rants about how she could be better guide me out of my art block these past couple days.
Part of why people pay more for collector dolls is because they have some type of attachment to them. Either being a Monster High character they already love, from an IP they love, or even the Off White had some brand recognition. (just not from me) And I felt like Lenore COULD have been the lady in white/weeping woman ghost story that just about every town has.
That being said- What is with the glitter tears?? If she had a unique sculpt that actually had a downturn on the brows and a sad face, and actually LOOKED like a weeping garden ghost, that alone would have made her more appealing!
Then why unpainted accessories? Why one big unpainted accessory her main focus? I like the vines (I didn't go very detailed here) but either paint them or make them smaller. (What I did) But if you want me to believe that the doll is WORTH $75 then you need to show that some actual care and effort went into her manufacturing and paint her damn accessories.
I just wanted an excuse to draw the spider. I don't like the human face but I only like a few of any of the MH pets anyway. so...
Put her damn hair up. Just like with the accessories, show me she is WORTH her price.
All of the above combined, the collector dolls stray further away from the High school aspect of MH and although Victorian/period fashion isn't necessarily my thing, I know a ton of collectors would have loved her looking like a ghost who's been haunting for a long time. And since she's not a character that's being portrayed in the high school - a collector doll would have been great! There's lots of adult/non-student characters.
Mini notes- I didn't draw patterns for her clothing, but the pattern on her dress as is would have still looked lovely on a bigger, fancier gown. I didn't do full body and I have no notes on shoes. They're not my specialty. And I would have appreciated her not having a full white sclera.
Also, line art for this piece is available here, tag me if you color it! I'd love to see. ♥♥♥

Raven Queen & Madeline Hatter
I’ve been wanting to design my idea of EAH characters & my minor universe changes AU + head cannons and fan moments I’ve created in my head. The big thing is EAH being more academic looking with a dress code, but highly encourages individuality as long as it matches their story. Y’all need to kick me to write my EAH stuff, I have so much love for the characters & story.
Raven
Half Fae (on her mothers side)
Tall & awkward about it
Clothing/style is armor, but she doesn’t want anyone to think she’s got a weapon. (Wants to look unapproachable but not intimidating.)
“Conceal don’t feel” but also “wanna see something cool?”
Maddie
Wonderlandians constantly break dress code, but it’s not really breaking it because following the code wouldn’t match their story. (However Maddie pushed her limits a few times with some distracting hat choices and has been put on hat suspension until further notice.)
Ball of chaos
Tiny bag with comically impossible storage trope
Hard to miss yet overlooked/underestimated (goofy/secretly observant genius trope)

2 things!
- I away read tags and thank you for kind words lately 🩷🥺😭
- Is there some sort of guide to posting art on tumblr that helps it from getting blurry and desaturated? Specifically from procreate, I’ve been trying to take screenshots instead of saving, since I’m bad at remembering to make my canvas smaller before saving, but that doesn’t seem to make a difference.

Mouse.
Every so often I draw mouse girls as sketches, not sure if I ever shared them anywhere before deleting them.
