I am done with my Decora Fashion Girlz Luna doll repaint. I haven't sealed the work yet, but I feel I am done. I went with all acrylics once again, and a 3-4 hours worth of work each day for the past three days. I am super happy with her; there are always issues due to my shaky-old-person hands, not as clean of a paint job as I would have liked. The last day was the worst, but I was super excited to finally finish her, so I painted her even with the extra jitters. I thought because her head is massive, it was going to be easier. Not thinking about how much of a pain it was going to be holding her head in one hand and trying to steady the other on top. Lol! Oh boy, was that a whole new learning curb! Doesn't help that I'm a scrawny, short old-fart, with tiny scrawny hands!
I was thinking of giving her more details in her irises, but I was too shaky, so I stopped myself. I might try later on, but for now, I feel she's done. I'm happy with how she looks even with all the flaws, she reminds me a bit of Secret Doll Persona head sculpts, the way she looks now. Which, I kind of really love, because I was never able to justify getting one of those dolls myself (I did regret it, for a while).
I will probably add upper applied lashes to her eyes after I seal the paint work, and perhaps a few piercings. I kind of like it with the idea that she's a vampire, might try sculpting actual fangs and teeth next time.
The second photo was taken at the end of the 1st day of painting, the 2nd one on the second day. I feel progress photos allow me to see what needs changing, or what I want to add, sometimes I like sharing those as well. Because I am a silly old-fart! (;
