dolls?
just a sideblog for doll-related things.
i don't have years of experience and the knowledge in the dolls community, i got interested in barbies in december of 2016.
my interest in repainting began when i wanted to restore my old barbie dolls.

From Garrett Sander’s Instagram:
#HappyFridayThe13th every Monster! Unearthed from the depths of the Catacombs - Check out the very first prototypes that were made to pitch the idea of Monster High! These prototypes used a head mold from a doll line that never made it to retail, feature the Barbie collector pivotal body (I was always all about that articulation) and you’ll notice some my scene shoes and accessories to help complete their looks plus some actual jewelry used to create their details! Just like customizers - we build prototypes out of what we have around sometimes, especially when the idea can be out there - like Fashionably Fierce Monster Teens! You’ll notice that Frankie isn’t green either... management said girls don’t like green so we couldn’t paint her up green... luckily when we tested the brand girls said if her dad is Frankenstein, she should be green! I felt so vindicated! Thanks girls in testing! For the most part the ghouls stayed pretty close to these designs, but Clawdeen got an all new outfit and a more purple color palette!

I wondered if creatable world dolls would be good candidates for headswaps but I couldn’t find any photos of such hybrids online. So once I got my dolls, I decided to try it myself and photograph the results. They have shorter necks than barbies but don’t look terribly unproportioned with smaller heads, maybe a little off. I personally find the Raquelle hybrid quite charming, curvy Karl less so. I guess it’s really a matter of personal taste. Matching the body with a head that could pass for a child/tween should get the best results.

What a ride this doll was! I was browsing the tunglesite as i tend to do and saw the beautiful costum cyclops doll @queenofsquids made and thought “oooh now i want a cyclops girl too!”. I made her out of an absolutely nasty feeling used Enchantimals koala girl. I never modified them before and it was really annoying that she had a sculpted on shirt so i removed that and also tried to make her thighs and hips bigger but that barely made a difference really. The whole outfit including the shoes is made from scratch and i’m pretty proud i managed to do something in this tiny scale x) Her hair was supposed to be WAY more curly and wild but sadly when heat styling and trimming she lost a lot of those curls. Even tho i really hated some of her WIP stages (no eye and a gaping empty mouth… erch) i’m so happy with the final result and it was so fun to paint this huge eye!

thedollcafe skomentował(a) Twój zestaw zdjęć “almost all of the dolls i repainted through the years. my repaints are...”
I like your style!!
thank you! i use only acrylic paint so i prefer to keep everything simple. i’m also inspired by dolljunk (i like how he paints lip corners so I picked that up from him).

almost all of the dolls i repainted through the years.
my repaints are by no means good, i do them so sporadically that whenever i start a new one i’m already out of practice. it’s a difficult medium. but it’s a nice thing to do and i begin to feel so much less frustrated with the mistakes i make.
3rd doll is based on my shepard who always looked slightly goofy in the screenshots. i have no idea how i feel about this repaint but then i think it sort of captures the typical uncomfortable/concerned look she had.
the punk gg bodyless barbie is one of my oldest repaints but still one of my favorite. the paint is awfully flaky so i might try to recreate her look on a spare gg i have with the better quality paints i’m using now.

Here is my Malibu Stacy custom based on the talking doll from The Simpsons. Since it’s very clear she’s heavily based on the 1982 Dream Date Barbie I based my design choices from that such as making the frilly thing on her bodice sequins, and using purple lilac bias tape rather than a darker pink.
I was going to use a Superstar body but I couldn’t find any with hard plastic legs for like $1 for the past few weeks so I slapped my Superstar sculpt head on a 2015 Dreamtopia body since it’s mostly hard plastic and easier to paint.
Of course I didn’t try making this show accurate but I’m really proud at how this turned out when she was meant to be a gag prop lol.

Here’s my Wicked Witch collection. I’ve had this affection for her for such a long while and yeah, I did resent doll companies for intentionally making their wicked witch dolls the antithesis of Barbie’s beauty for the longest time. But I’ve learnt to love the beauty of the stronger jaws, bigger noses and generally un-Barbie appearance now.

Here is my Selma Dupar Jones rebodied onto a MTM body. I do wish I had more monochrome modern doll clothing cuz she gives off a gothy vibe but I’m really happy with how she looks.
