My first try at repainting a Barbie! I'm pretty happy with how she came out for my first try! I can't wait to try again! ^^
I did her hair too. :) She might need a reroot anyway, since it seems a little sparse on top... Maybe that'll be my next experiment!
Some dolls are just more fun to repaint than others. Clawdeen is definately one of my new favourites.
Next up: Howleen! Get pumped!

Noel Cruz is one of the most versatile & distinguished repaint artists in the doll community. He is most recognized for his character & celebrity based dolls due to their uncanny resemblance to the people they portray. His dolls are derived from several models like Gene, Tyler, Sydney, etc, by various doll-makers such as Robert Tonner & Franklin Mint. His repaints as well as his portraits are done with intricate detail to the point of being naturally lifelike in essence. Highly regarded among collectors and artists alike, Noel attempts to raise the bar and bring a fresh take to the common mass produced doll with every face he paints. Noel's specialty is with one of a kind repaints. The beauty of repaints is that almost no two are exactly alike just as no two artists are alike.

Do you remember my Gaganás? (Lady Gaga + Satanás/Satan because she was ugly as hell) xD

It was my first repaint and well... It was terrible as you can see! ahahaha
So I decided to try to save her face one more time. Which was really hard work because I had done the first repainting with a permanent marker. - Kids, don't do this at home, I was very noob.-
The eyebrows were a challenge, but I used a secret ninja technique using white paint to cover the maker and shades of brown to reach the skin tone of the doll.
But in the end it was much better (or less ugly...)
I fixed her hair and followed the amazing tutorial for Shuiimedina to make bangs. Thanks a lot! <3

I have caught the repaint bug!! And since I had an extra Allan doll, I decided to repaint him today. Eventually I will get a Ken repainted. I have ordered one especially to repaint. Cant wait for him to get there.
Anyway, I decided I wanted this Allan to be a blonde blue eyed boy. So, that is what I did. I mixed up a blond color that was similar to painted hair Ken's hair color, but I decided I wanted to do some highlighting and shading on the hair. I went to town doing that.
I hope you enjoy this guy. I really had fun transforming him. :)
(I think i need to take a darker shot of this repaint,
as this picture doesn't show off the paint job that well.)
Protofrom Optimus Prime came with the 3 bot movie battle pack alongside Jazz and Brawl.
This was the only bot in the pack that i wasn't enthusiastic about. As much as I love Prime, the odd blue/grey paintjob did nothing for me.
But once i saw Jins repaint, i knew what must be done.
This was my first Transformers repaint, and i think it went pretty well. i can't wait to get my hands on more awesome molds with crappy paint schemes now :P
I also bulked up the lower half of the face with some random model parts to try and reduce the strange "sour lemons" expression that the original sculpt had.
the new faceplate looks a little odd from this angle, but i'm pleased with it overall.
ps. Does this head sculpt say "movie Soundwave" more than optimus prime to anyone else..or is it just me?
Justine was repainted after I accidentally ruined her stock makeup in a well-meaning attempt to de-glitter her eyeshadow. Despite the mishap, I think she turned out pretty well. :)
My freshdolls Gabrielle with a hair restyle and a repaint inspired by Kawaii style art and pastels. I had no real plan going into this repaint but I knew I wanted to avoid black paint and keep the face looking super soft and cute looking.
I kept the colour palette to only four colours but I’m not sure if I did okay cuz my usual style is usually a lot more defined colours and contrasts to the face heh.

A repaint of the Masterpiece Starscream done for me by a guy I met online, painted to match the original G1 Starscream's colors.
Kay-Bee Toys had special exclusive repaints of most of the Kenner Predators, giving them all ivory-colored skin, and new armor! Stalker benefitted the most from this, because now you can SEE his xenomorph armor! See the alien head? The tail? The armor pieces on the shoulders and boots? The mottled camo-colored armor is quite fitting, too.
