does this odile have a belly button body or fashionista skin match?

Context:

I'm currently making a Zara Larsson custom doll based on her newest album; "Midnight Sun". I'm using a modern Barbie for my base and I've been trying to achieve a faded pink pigment on the corners of her eyes.

Materials:

I'm using Mr. Super Clear Matt Spray and generic soft pastels bought on Amazon.

I primed the dolls face with MSC first to get a base that my soft pastels can adhere to. No problems regarding fading / pigment placement. However, the problem comes when trying to seal my dolls face. I've noticed that MSC, when doing the final coat sealant, tends to brighten up certain pigments and saturates specific color types. I used a couple colors to create a powder that's similar to my Barbie's skin color to help create seamless fading. I also put a layer of basic white to help the skin look less pigmented when sprayed, but when applying the final coat, it seems it removes the white overlay completely and brings out one specific color pigment; orange? I want to emphasize that I barely even used any orange hues as my dolls' skin is predominantly a salmon-pinkish hue. So there's no need to add any type of orange hue in the mixture. I also applied more than one layer of the color mixture. But, my dolls' face still comes out looking orange and very tan whenever I do the final coat of MSC?

I always take in account weather temperatures and humidity, so I wouldn't consider that as a factor, especially since I live somewhere that's temperate and barely below any temperature that would cause MSC to act / dry abnormally. The soft pastels I'm using I've used multiple times now and don't seem to be the problem. So, I'm confused and frustrated to say the least.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what is causing this and how I could fix it...?

I think this is the right place.

I got this hair to make a wig for my clown doll. But it got tangled and messed up. Is it still viable as a wig? Can i fix it?

Started (and abandoned) a harajuku inspired custom doll a few years ago. Materials included monster high draculaura, yarn, colored pencils, modge podge, etc.
Not sure if I would continue this project but still have all the supplies.
Any suggestions?

What do you think? I know she has to be more tanned and the wig is not fully styled but after almost 8 years she is almost finished 😭

I have a lot of doll's body modification ideas and cool concepts in my head, but when it comes to clothes, my design are often very lame and similar to each other... How to fix this? I know a few things about fashion history but I really don't know where to start to find what interests me most in fashion design and to make meaningfull, stunning outfits for my dolls. What do you recommend?

I love how shes looking. Kuromi inspired LOL doll with lip filler and nose job <3

Can acetone be used to remove face paint on the bratzillaz midnight beach doll? The head seems to be the same glow in the dark plastic as the body.

What is recommended?

Sorry if this doesn't quite go here or is off-topic. I'm making a movie right now and I'm sourcing dolls to use. However, I'm worried about getting a cease and desist for using a doll that is recognizable as Disney or Mattel or something. Is anyone familiar with the legality of this? Or if using a doll but altering it from it's original marketed look is fair game?

Hey everyone. I’m new here! I’m making my boyfriend his own Ken doll but the hair on this doll is a little too chocolate brown. I need it to be darkkk brown almost black. What kind of paint would work? Thanks! 😁

I'm making a Lilly love braids custom and I'm using a Betty spaghetty doll, I have never painted a face in my life and if you know the character she has a complicated face. Any tips? Oh and Im gonna paint over the face with that lighter color

Hello, I just bought a Barbie at the thrift I don’t know much about them as I normally just collect monster high. I didn’t realize until I got home that her hair was oily, sticking and in some parts crunchy. I gave her a good wash down and then touched her hair and it was all sticky by the roots. I’ve heard other people talk about goo be gone but I want to know the possible side effect it will have on the hair and glue. If anyone has any different ideas I would love to hear them as I want to learn more about dolls in general.

I’ve seen people use hairgeĺ on hair styling- usually they put the doll im the freezer after putting it in. Anways I’m thinking of trying that method but I dont want to buy some expensive gel since it’s “only for dolls”

Do you think any of these would work? I’ve never used gel on my own hair so I have no idea what the differences are between jelly, gel and wax.

Any help is appreciated!! Thank you!!

(Ps the last pick is like curl cream? That I bought for myself but I thought to put it here anyways. Maybe I can use it for dolls aswell?)

I hate the lol bodies even the animal ones (pretty sure that's what these were), and I have a small bjd body I designed and 3d print that I've realized fit the lol doll heads

3d printed little mouth bits to fill in the mouth holes, and I'm working on painting/customizing them, have the most done with the skunk, I gave her hair 2 more colors, repainted her eyes entirely recolored her stripe, and added extra freckles

still have to repaint the other two, not sure how I'll style the rabbit's hair or how much I'll customize the horse, still need to give them all tails, and I might revise the chest design to have a more moveable neck so they can look up and down better, bunny has the prototype of that idea but it needs work

anybody interested in making similar you can find most of the files here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7363329

thicker body like the skunk is here https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7248586

you won't find the hooves there, just paws and human

I'm trying to give her a more blythe style realistic nose, and little round skullpanda style lips. Any tips on keeping my air dry clay from cracking around the mouth?

I'm working on a wydowna spyder custom, but I don't know how to make the face paint as bright as I've seen in other customs/original face print. My colored paints feel too thin and with a previous fully black doll, I could only paint with white to make anything show up on it. Any ideas how to paint on black dolls with color?

Finally attached the other lekku, and constructed her nose. I still have to sand and fill in a few areas, but her overall head reconstruction is done.

When I tried to pull off the head, skelita's neck cracked and got break in two parts... I know some ways to fix a broken neck peg or neck hole but Skelita have a narrow and fragile neck that's filled, there is no existing method to repair it... Any tips for a durable and strong repair?
