Originally, I only planned to paint Trigon’s base. However, after I put him back on his base he looked odd, his paintjob now also looked plain. I decided to repaint his skin colour. This only made his clothing look plain, so I repainted them as well. It was more painting than I intended to do, but I’m happy with the final result.
I think she looks like an insect with the tiny pursed mouth.
Possible mouth repaints on Zeenie doll. Mar. 2015.
Her hair has been brushed out, shampooed and trimmed, but not styled. She is currently still waiting for a face (June 12)...
I've done a few more repaints.
Left: An old Bratz doll. Eyebrows are tricky. (OK fine, all of it is tricky.)
Middle: A Moxie Girlz doll. I dislike the original eyes on those things and I think this is an improvement. I kept the original eyebrows and lips. The eye area is nearly flat on this doll. I like that.
Right: My main problem with this Bratzillaz doll was the exaggerated lips which I replaced with semi-transparent paint and a touch of "interference" green (Golden fluid acrylics)

I haven't done a lot of painting before and I had to look up how to mix black. I've prepared small jars of useful colors: Black, transparent black, a transparent flesh color for the corner of the eye, transparent dark brown for eyebrows, pre-diluted matte gel for transparency.
It's interesting to find out what brushes work. I used to think the only thing I needed were very small round brushes, so I have a few different ones - I might do a review - but I really appreciate a small filbert ("cat's tongue") that I happened to buy at some point.
I'm still not using and primer or topcoats - so no blushing. I was going to avoid airbrushing at all cost... but now I'm not so sure.

Freckles. I forgot freckles. It happens every time!

Walls are Benjamin Moore 'Classic Gray' (Regal Select) in an eggshell finish, to match the dining room, but I had it darkened 25% to help the white trim pop a teensy bit. Trim is Benjamin Moore Advance in 'White', straight out of the can as the machine supposedly color matched it to Sherwin Williams 'Extra White' which is used on the trim in the other rooms. BM Advance really needs to dry overnight and be sanded in between each of three coats. But it's worth it for the lovely hardened finish. Ceilings are Zinsser Stainblock Ceiling Paint in flat bright white (straight out of the can).
All these are of the same step, I just couldn't decide which ones were the most relevant. No, I don't think a single one is sharp, sorry.)
Repaint practice on a My Scene head (less ugly and more fun to work with than the Bratz head I used before). Still awful but making progress. Practicing blushing with acrylic paint on an almost dry brush (can't use pastels due to no spray sealer). I keep overdoing it...
The more I attempt to work with this girl the more it doesn`t. The head is such a weird shape most things just don`t work :x
