Fun with Monsters

Hello All!

So despite it having been awhile since I last posted, I have, in fact, kept up my interest in Monster High dolls. Customizing them has proved to be quite fun, though I'll still practicing. I have managed to sell one of my two finished dolls even! The second I'm thinking of re-doing again with the same theme, but a little more finesse. I'm getting a hang of this, slowly but surely. So, here's what I've been up to:

CaM Kitty I'm painting to sell on etsy


A Lagoona I'm painting for Jamie as a belated xmas present


An Abby I'm practicing on and will be painting. Cut out her eyes so I can put in acrylic eyes in.


Finished Products:
A Ghoulia I painted for an SS exchange


The Cleo and Frankie that I painted. I sold the Frankie on Ebay, but the Cleo is still for sale if anyone is interested.


The Cleo above is the one I plan on re-doing. I quite like her face shape, and I'll be doing the same color theme and all the beauty marks, but probably make her eyebrows a tad smaller and do a better job on her eyes. They're kind of flaking because of a mistake I made with the gloss.

Some dolls I've picked up for myself are a Rochelle Goyle, Venus McFlytrap, and a Howleen Wolf. I've also got a Clawdeen, Spectra, and Draculaura that I plan on repainting and then selling. It's been quite a lot of fun!

On the art front, I'm trying to finish up a character app for Minispris on DA. I tried joining when they first opened, but didn't make it in. They seem to have done a reset on the whole group, though, so I guess the original didn't work out or it's under new management or something. Regardless, hopefully I'll make it in because I could do with some chibi fun! Otherwise, most of my art time is eaten up by Souls of Chaos still, lol. Maybe I'll get to my own group one of these days.
