I May Never Be An OOAK Artist. Head Swaps And Repaints!

Hey Gang!

I may never be an OOAK artist. You will never see me selling OOAK dolls
on line. I have been working on a few dolls off and on. I might not be professional
but I can change a few dolls in a manner I find more acceptable.

After repainting the eye of SIS Chandra (I don't like sideways eyes thing),
I didn't do anything other than change the bodies on my dolls for years!

I think I can do better so I might repaint her eyes again.

Then one fall day  while painting leave for diorama use, I decided after watch
a MyFroggyStuff video to repaint my ken doll!

Then I painted Jude's hair!

Jude Edwards is his name.  He need some tattoo and more piercings.  He is being
added to my Twenty-something crew.

First up is my second AA Chelsea boy!

I told you before that I was planning to paint his hair black.

Well I did paint his hair black!

The after doll 

Noah! He is now on an SIS Courtney body.

 Dante': Welcome to Johnston Noah!

Noah: I glad to be here!

Ricky Repaint!

I saw this picture of Ricky dolls!

So I also repainted a Ricky doll with Black hair. I wasn't sure if I wanted

to paint him with black hair on blonde hair.  I had saw a picture online of \

Ricky done both ways but I opted for black.  I may do a blonde doll later.

So here is Ricky before.

Here is rick, now Zachery, after!

 Zachery: Glad to meet you all!  I glad to be here too!

Rebodied Dolls

I have had Generation Girl Blaine and Derek for a very long time. Since even before 

I started blogging.  They haven't got much blog time because of their body and the 

gift giving arms. I have sold their bodies and kept their heads waiting for a new 

body. So you won't get a before photo.

Rocker Derek has a older darker complexions so I knew I need that complexion in an

articulated body.

 Blaine need a paler articulated body.

Now some dolls you want to redo and other dolls you kinda have to!  When
I found this doll in the stores, all seem to have the same problem with the hair line!

As you can see the hairline is not like it looks in the promos! Everyone I have seen
doesn't have a clean hairline.

So I knew I needed to clean it up but then I decided to do something different.
I knew that anyone who had a shaved bun the shaved would not look so solid.

It isn't the best job.  As I figure out how to do this better, he might get redone.

I also closed his mouth.  I didn't realize the nail polish had sparkles, so this might get
redone too!  Then he was rebodied onto an articulated body.

He is on a Disney Descendants Ben body.

He likes his new body.

 Norio: Glad to be here! 

Steven need to be articulated for stories and dioramas! I got the idea for how

 to do this from Hey, It's Muff.  

Here he is on his new body!

 Steven: I am really looking forward to more stories now!

OK, Thanks For Looking!
