Jinxed!

Hi guys! This would be brief... For the longest time I wanted to make a Halle Berry doll. I made 1 a couple of years back but I am not happy with the results so I made another 1. This is based on her role in the James Bond film "Die Another Day"

Perfect Doesn't Work...

I have strive to perfect my doll customization for quite some time. This is one of my favorite actresses of all time and when she made this movie, I was so thrilled since I am a fan of the glamour years... meaning the fifties or the post World War II era. Everything was just stylish. I wasn't able to take photos of the whole customization process but then I was happy with the result. Here she is!!! Nicole Kidman as a Stepford wife.

I even made a mock up movie poster ^_^

Like what Nicole Kidman said in the movie "It's not all about perfection". She's right. What we can do with our lives is not to strive for perfection but strive for constant betterment as an individual. Work with the flaws! It's normal... Just turn it around to your advantage.
Till next blog!!! Tootles!!! ^_^

Confessions of a Not-So Posh doll

While I was rummaging some dolls in a thrift shop, I saw this doll. Her nose was rounded and very prominent cheekbones. Very manly I may say so. I've seen her before but never paid attention. Oddly, I saw something in her that made me buy her in an instant. My partner was even surprised why I bought her in the first place.

Actually, I know what kind of a doll she is. She's a Victoria as Posh Spice doll... It got me thinking if i should repaint her to make a resemblance of the singer/fashionista. But then again, I have other plans.

Hmm.. what to change?! what to change?! I may say everything (ahihihih ^_^). Here is what needs to be done

>full facial repaint
>full hair reroot
>rebody ^_^

What I did first was to
shave all of her head.

These Line of dolls are a bit hard headed (just like my Britney Spears doll) so I have to blow dry it to soften
the vinyl head.

A little pulling and twisting over here and there.... BOP!! goes the head! ^_^

I removed the short plugs for in preparation of the new plugs that are to be inserted. ^_^

I chose 3 sets of hair
color to add
texture...

At last I am done rerooting. Her head is quite tough to reroot. whew!!! ^_^

I saw that I can work
on her features on this celeb doll so
I decided to change
her identity... ^_^

After the repaint, I
immediately styled her. I had this outfit
in mind!!! :D

Now off to the photoshoot!!
^_^

I added a background to make the photo
more dramatic! I am excited to sew her real outfit
^_^ better watch out soon! Who would have thought this

Not-so-Posh doll would turn out to be okay. I guess no matter
how random things are, you are always surprised with the
things that are around you can be sooo perfect!!!
KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED!!!! ^_^ Till next blog!!!
Tootles!!! ♥♥♥
