Tattoo Details

I was fortunate enough to be given an old deva by Miss Melanie Parker a couple of weeks back and i thought i could use it as a fitter for my couture. She told me that the doll was dyed and painted. When it finally arrived, i couldnt help but to take this chance to salvage the doll from it's state and my first time to handle resin. so i tried to clean every part up until all paint and ye were gone, sanded it again and to find out most of the doll's resin is almost stained deeply. This is a challenge i thought.

 

I never gave up on the idea of giving this doll a second lease at her glamourous existence, so i went on a very ambitious project to do japanese style tattoos wherever there is a stain... then i arrived to this look... the birth of Hana (Japanese Female Name for flower and favorite)

 

btw, forgive my face up, not perfect, resin is still new to me... and its also the first time i did a full on wog ever. so fingers crossed. hehe...
