I'm trying to work on a few different projects at the same time. Or at least start working, on a few different projects. I am hoping to be able to repaint and work on my Hujoo Wings soon. So, I took some photos of him, and my repainted and rebodied MGA Novi Stars Una Verse. Whom I love dearly! I had forgotten how much I love Una! She was the first Novi Stars doll I purchased. I can't recall if she was the first ever MGA doll I ever owned, but more likely than not, she was.

Of course, I own two of her. That's the only way I feel comfortable modifying most mass-produced fashion dolls... I rebodied her soon after I got a second one to unbox, onto a Monster High body. I always thought it made more sense, based on their OG artwork. Ideally, I wanted her on the Monster High Create A Monster Ice Girl body, but I was sadly never able to get that kit. I got a few of the other ones, but not that specific one. So, I settled for one of Abbey's. Which, I don't hate, but it is too pale, in comparison to Una's slightly darker blue plastic.

I am not planning on repainting her, ever again! I am not saying this is my magnus opus, but removing her eyes was a huge pain in the lower back. It was the one time I did it without cutting into the plastic, and I never plan on doing that again. I've never successfully masked acrylic eyes, on dolls with inset eyes (for removing factory paint). So, I rather her say this way forever. I just want to give her a nice dress and maybe nicer hair. I don't completely dislike her factory hair; I just don't like the texture or volume. I was able to make it softer by washing, then heat straightening it with a flat iron. Finally using a dryer sheet. However, it is still so puffy. I want it to be sleek and longer. Making a wig would be the only option however, but I am not sure I want to do that, since I do enjoy how the hair looks minus the bulk. It's something I'll have to think about very carefully, since I can't actually get another Una, without paying so much more than I am willing to.

She is borrowing my IMC Toys VIP Hair Makeover Megan's dress in most of these. I want to try making a similar dress for her. I don't know what the name of the fabric of Mega's dress is called -- they closed down all JoAnn's Fabric stores, if I am not mistaken. They at least closed the one nearest to me, so finding fabric locally will be a pain in the gut hole. Una's OG dress is metallic silver, with a ballon blue tule skirt. I don't know I can recreate that, but I would like something in the same vein. As well as some similar shoes, or at the very least some black maryjanes. Which I doubt MH has (or that they wouldn't be expensive to acquire), without too much sculptural detail.

I've included a photo of Una next to my Hujoo Sleepy Wings, and my Megan, for size reference. One of my younger nieces never got Novi Stars dolls, so she wanted to see how they compare to "more" current fashion dolls. She probably doesn't own a VIP Hair Makeover doll either, but that's what I was working with at the time. Perhaps I'll take some more of Una with a Barbie next time. She's holding Molecule as well, in some of these. (:

"Look, Auntie Mei! She's from the stars! Just like me!"

The general concept was based around my headcanon is that Jack (S76) as a teenager collected dolls (gay teenager in the 2030s?) and he went and dug into the storage of his old family home to dig the doll out for her. Hes gruff, snarky, a bit mean but no one can convince me he wouldn't secretly leave it in her room. He'd overhear her talking about feeling a bit alone or lost to herself (maybe she records herself taking notes when she thinks no one is around to listen back on if/when she makes it home to refresh herself so she can share her adventures with everyone there) and he's like "I have got to get this lost space girl one of my space girl dolls". He spends days looking through those boxes for Ari Roma because "she's an astronaut too" but when he comes across Una Verse with the glitter legs still intact he's like "no that's the one" because she has the same little hair highlights

Juno is estatic when she comes back to her room and sees a little alien doll, with a little story on the back of the box about how she's from space, but has come to earth and found a home there doing what she loves.
