Yeah it looks really good.  It’s hard to get Adolin’s hair right, but I think you got it.

Thanks! I'm kind of working off these images by beanclam for inspiration.

This is the video I'm mostly working from: 

This woman makes the most incredible shoes for Monster High dolls, mostly for girls.

That is seriously amazing! Nice work!

You should see the tutorials on YouTube that I'm working from! I stand on the shoulders of giants.

Mmmm I do like the blue size more, but I think I'd ultimately stick to with the pink ones.

Unfortunately, they're smooth and opaque enough that they just look like rocks and not "crystals". So I think I'll return both sets and go with some cheap acrylic beads that will really sparkle and jut out appropriately. But I learned a lot on this first pass! Gotta play to the back of the room, as they say.

I can see where he's coming from. Make sure to let us know when they are all the way finished! I can't wait.

I'm kind of using this gallery to post process pictures, partly because there are a lot of small decisions along the way and I'm looking for other people's opinions to help me make up my mind!

These are cool! Also kind of creepy. But cool!

That's the danger of doll modding lol. Making a doll's wig cap, for instance, requires wrapping their head in plastic, covering that with a piece of scrap cloth fastened around the neck and face with rubber bands, and painting it with layers of glue to make it stiff. I don't put any clothes on them while I do it because I don't want the clothes getting glue on them, which is harder to clean up than hard plastic, and my husband generally complains...
