At least this one (Artsy) looks like a real person without all that heavy a$$ makeup.<br /><br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-50009364141115405462012-01-17T07:20:06.559-06:002012-01-17T07:20:06.559-06:00Thanks Limbe Dolls -- I used the Sharpie for her e...Thanks Limbe Dolls -- I used the Sharpie for her eyebrows.<br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-80986272041536421632012-01-17T07:18:03.843-06:002012-01-17T07:18:03.843-06:00LOL@ Vanessa!

I can't help it if I have a heavy hand. <br /><br />I showed the doll to artist-husband who was engrossed in something else and really didn't pay much attention to the doll, but he did make a one word comment of "makeup." (I think he thought she was made that way.) I said, "I repainted the eyes." <br /><br />He looked again and was silent (probably thinking, "you shouldn't have.") LOL!<br /><br />I'd like to see him do better and may challenge him. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-48197036812855070332012-01-17T07:06:01.790-06:002012-01-17T07:06:01.790-06:00Before I make my comments, I want to tell everyone...Before I make my comments, I want to tell everyone that Debbie and I are really good friends. I joke with her a lot. <br /><br />First of all, cudos to you for jumping in. {applause, applause). I'm with Chynadoll. Don't let the first one discourage you. How many times did it take to get KFC chicken? A lot. So keep trying. You did remind me that I need to paint Dallas Cowboys lips. I am reluctant. Not because I think I will mess them up, but there are some dolls that I think should be left original and she is one of them. I can't believe how much I love that doll.<br /><br />My final comment.... Were you going for the hooker look?Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027064808344974667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-35010933030351392982012-01-17T06:59:20.347-06:002012-01-17T06:59:20.347-06:00I like Nikki's new eyebrows.

"Astounding." Not bad.<br /><br />It's reassuring to know that your first repaint attempts were also not exactly works of art, but as my close friend often says: Nothing beats a failure but a try. I tried.<br /><br />Cat - Make sure the Sharpie is ultra fine tipped. Office Depot and Michaels usually stocks an array of delicious colors. There are also paint pens, but I have never found one with an ultra fine tip.<br /><br />:-)<br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-88265990382640691732012-01-16T20:52:08.429-06:002012-01-16T20:52:08.429-06:00Not bad at all Debbie.

The sharpie thing cracks me up! I have to get me one of those just to try that out. As far as your repaint, don't let the repaint of one doll discourage you from trying it again. My first twenty or so were a disaster lol. Practice does make perfect or close to it to keep trying LOL :) she does look unique and that is where it transform to an OOAK.
