#Faceup WIP

[creepy-dolls]

Still a WIP but I’m happy with how my Kaniboom Unhappy is turning out 😖

[pandorkful-dolls]

Oof I'm rusty, and all my model paints have gotten thick from 2 years of disuse. (And I lost a brand new red sable brush down the gap between my desk and bookcase. >_< d'oh.) Need to do a little cleanup in the sclera still, but I'm not hating this so far...

MY FIRST ACTUAL FACEUP!!!

So the actual doll is still a WIP. I want to put her on a little sister body I think so I'm waiting for rn. But her faceup is finished!!!

This is my first genuine attempt at a faceup and I could not be more pleased with how it came out.

It's not perfect and on camera it looks a little streaky/patchy but I'm so happy with her :))

I have some fine/brush tip acrylic pens which is what I used for the faceup. I've tried gouache and acrylic before but I never really felt like it went on very smooth so the paint pens are really game changing for me.

I used one of those blank CAM faces. It was actually one I have had since I was a kid. One of the ones that you could stamp temporary tattoo faces on, which is why the face looks so flat.

Right now her head and her little bracelet are on a knockoff Wydowna body I use for testing and accessory painting until I get her an actual permanent body.

I am really digging Golden's new SoFlat Matte Acrylic offering. The brushstrokes like 90% disappear even if I can see them while it's wet.

Black undercoat makes chameleon powder really pop.

Also did a little work on my clear skeleton doll. Not sure if I want to do much face-up on the clear mask… the primer spray made it look cloudy so I might just do some minimal line-work and gloss coat it.

Looking at sheer number of projects on my table….. maybe I have attention problemssssss

Frankenstein wip 3/???

Basically have spent probably 3 hours (Or so?? Maybe idk lost count at this point) on stitch work and touching paint up but!! Torso done!!!

It is definitely going the way I wanted so I'm THRILLED

Bonus back pics 👍

It's definitely going to be a BUNCH more work tomorrow or whenever I get the chance to keep working but I'm thrilled with it so far :) def would say she's coming together well! I have the arms, one hand, whatever I'm doing w the ass (no clue at this point tbh) and the feet and legs left so it's def getting closer to being done but NOWHERE near actually done lmao. It's definitely the most ambitious project doll wise I've taken on so lol

Still no name for her but I am definitely getting her character down in the way that I think the doll is like hi. Here's what I'm like as a character.

Big Day Today: I did a LOT of painting and body blushing

Now comes the toughest part for me: eyebrows and body hair 🫠

NSFW: Realistic Body WIP under the cut: (scars, tats, etc)

You sorta have to do the entire body at once if you can hack it. Makes it a lot easier.

A lot of the stuff right now looks like an angry red but I will be adding some white and yellows to soften it. Also I touch the scars with a small bit of ModPodge at the end to have a raised shininess to them.

I've added a scar from the Holy Lance of Longinus and some wing scars on the shoulder blades because I'm all poetic and extra like that.

Yes he will have body hair. Yes, he has everything. Like...everything painted, ok? 👀 As well as some "option parts".

My search history is insane.

Idk if I like the tattoos I gave him but they're not sealed yet. I put symbols regarding the Chariot and the Wheel of Fortune, as well as S and C (Solve et Coagula) I'm like dang I hope that orphic egg doesn't look like a snitch

Yes, my Asks are open for questions!

SLIGHT PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE TODAY :D

[kaxenart]

Face-ups for the winky face for Shuen and for Kergat.

Wearing a head-mounted magnifier is helping with working at this scale, but it also makes me a little motion sick. D:

....Maybe I should have gotten the table-mounted one instead....
