Here's my sealed work on my repainted Ken Looks number 5! I'm super happy with him. The only problem is his under-eye area turned out shinier than I was hoping. It was already like that before I sealed the repainted work with a few layers of MSC matte, and a single layer of MSC gloss. Otherwise, I am happy with all other areas of his face after sealing. I like using a light layer of gloss in-between, because it adds a nice "dewy/human-flesh-like" finish to my more "realistic-ish" repaints. However, I am not sure why it looks hyper shiny at the chin and under the eyes. Although, it was already like that before I sealed the work, as I said. I didn't expect to look like that after the layers of MSC matte. I don't mind it IRL too much, particularly the chin. But those under-eyes...

I might have to mask-off all other areas and add a layer or two of more matte fixative. I don't want to completely dull all the rest of the face, as I am happy with how it looks IRL otherwise. Just not super excited of how those two areas photograph. We'll see...

I took a lot of crappy repetitive photos of him; I am super happy with him now. Not the repaint work as I always feel I could have done a better job. I'm just in-love with how he looks in general, now. I like more realistic-ish looking repaints, and this is definitely a lot less cartoony than my last repaint work on him. So, I am happier for that reason. I do find this head sculpt extremely beautiful, otherwise I wouldn't have purchase one, let alone two (to customize one). I wasn't happy with the default chin, brow-bone and lips sculpting, so I modified the brows and chin a bit during my first repaint on him, back in 2022. I forgot about those when I repainted him a few days ago, so I just did a quick softening of the chin once again, but I thought I could have sanded even further. However, now that he is sealed and "finished," I feel like I don't mind the chin so much anymore. It is a pain to have to paint it to look the way I want it, instead of it just being the shape and size I want it to be. However, I don't mind it anymore. I am happy to leave him like this forever!

I say that now, watch me redo his face paint and mods once again in a few years. Lol! (; I am in love with this Ken, even if I am a crazy old fart who wants to mod and repaint things a million times over! I only wish I knew how to re/style hair a tiny bit, so I could try different hair styles on him. Or, that I was willing to re-root or shave him. I hate re-rooting dolls, and I like his hair style as is, a lot. I only wish I could restyle the hair, from time to time! I'm also petrified of doing anything because his flocking keeps falling off all over the place! That's what's on his face on some of these photos at his chin and lips. In case some of it is visible, I kept blowing it off his face, only to find more a few seconds later. I keep his hair in a plastic wrap "hat," to keep the hair from getting messy, but I don't know if that's the reason for the flocking to be coming off all the time, or if it's just a natural thing with flocking. I don't own that many flocked things that are unboxed -- or that I handle at all! Last four are from my older than dust phone, because it takes slightly better, hyper-washed-out photos, the newer likes adding a pound of noise and they are always dark as the dickens, which I would love, if it wasn't for the extra-crispy pixels.

Barbie's new flat is ready!!!

[kindaokartchannel]

WIP doll custom I've been kinda working on since I was gone, got her in bad condition for free, I'm gonna be honest, it is wild, she has permanent clothes on, her legs are stuck in place, arms go up and down, head side to side... All of that so she can light up forfour seconds and have a ringtone sound 😐 this was supposed to be a "princess" she just reminds me of a big version of mcdonalds barbies

Nowhere near finished with the custom but the design overall seems odd, mattel made moulded on bodices before and they looked like actual clothes so why does this girl get odd cutouts to her glowing torso and look nothing like a princess dress?

And yes the original owner took her face off, not sure why? there was no obvious attempt at a repaint of any kind

Kay I finished it, stuck to basic barbie format for it

So here is Mystique rerooted and repainted in an original design of mine for once since Louboutin is one of my favourite sculpts but Mattel keeps doing her so dirty. A small rant but I really don't understand why current Barbie eyebrows seem to have no understanding of the sculpt underneath and that the recent Louboutin sculpt dolls (Darth Vader, Dragon Empress and Mystique) all have paint where the outer corner of the lower eyelid is a straight line instead of curved. Like, I get I can repaint the dolls to suit my taste but It's such a bizarre design choice for the eyes. Plus the fact that collector Barbie's eyepaint seems to be slipping lower on the face every year is concerning but ya know. #repaint #barbie #barbierepaint #mystique #mystiquebarbie https://www.instagram.com/p/CF9VYyBpWAr/?igshid=89znocog1srg

Ever have trouble getting a photo to turn out how you want? It was SUPER HARD getting a direct picture with this girl. Her eyebrows are so thin and light, her freckles disappear, her eyes are actually grey but keep looking dark bluish, her skintone washes out in direct light and the shine, omg the shine from that gloss 🙈 I guess this'll have to do . . . . #binglesbanglesbabies #repaint #reroot #dollrepaint #repaintdoll #barbiestyle #barbiereroot #barbie #barbierepaint #barbiefashion #barbieooak #photography #photoshoot #photograph #photographer #photoproject #photo #photos https://www.instagram.com/p/BttN3Wql2Gw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bsg0g7775tqr
