Belladonna Nightshade - Halloween Dark Fairy
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Base Doll: G3 Twyla from Monster High Clothing Pattern: Dollightful's Asymmetrical Dress (read to the end, I have notes about this)
Happy Halloween everyone! Since becoming a doll customizer, my Halloween dolls are usually related to my favorite indie horror game, Bendy and the Ink Machine. However, seeing as I've completed two Bendy dolls already this year, I felt it was time to give myself a break and try something a bit different. My friends over in DollyAnna's Discord server wanted to do a collaboration, so we decided to all make some Dark Fairies for Halloween!
Belladonna Nightshade is a mischievous fae that loves to play tricks and tempt mortals. That said, she's easily bribed with a sweet treat or two, and will usually let you be if you have a little candy or pastry to give her. I haven't decided what I want to do with her yet in terms of a story, but there is a part of me that would love to have her in my Equinox story.
When you consider the fact that most of my other Halloween dolls are black and yellow, it's no surprise she ended up super colorful. XD Would you believe this is my first doll with rainbow hair? Yeah neither did I, but she is! Part of my style is having really colorful and vibrant dolls, it surprises a lot of people that I've never done a rainbow before, but honestly? I'm glad to have finally tackled one! I'm also glad to have worked with another G3. Twyla is very near and dear to my heart, and I was so psyched to work with her mold! You can't see it in any of these photos, but I used glow in the dark varnish on her eyes and neon markings, so that her eyes still glow like the original. I will say, this doll has a lot more acrylic paint than my others, just by the nature of I don't have any pencils in neon colors. It was nice to get the practice in, I feel more confident than I did before in my brush skills. It was also nice to have a doll with dark scleras for a change! I haven't done that since I made Dreamer, it's surprisingly fun to draw on!
I was inspired by a LOT of different things with this one, and I went back and forth on my concepts a lot. Black light skeleton make-up, butterflies, fairies with non-traditional wings, candy, jesters, these were all sources of inspiration, and I think most obviously of all, Dollightful herself. This wasn't intentional, but I ended up using a doll of one of her favorite characters, with a lot of saturated colors which we know she loves, and even her dress pattern! I've been wanting to make this garment for ages, and finally I had a reason to try it!
So those of you who know how this pattern works are probably asking "Kat, how did you make this fit a G3? This dress is supposed to fit a G1 Monster High doll!" Believe it or not, Requiem Arts has a method for easily adjusting G1 patterns to fit G3 bodies. It's as simple as scaling a pattern up to 104% and printing it that way. It's meant for her garments, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work for other doll patterns. So I tried it with Katherine's dress, and I'm happy to say it worked out just fine! I think I probably should have adjusted a bit more on the skirt though. This outfit is essentially two pieces, and the skirt with all the ruffles is a little tight around the booty, it could have used a little more sizing up. So if you own this pattern and want to try this yourself, do keep that in mind!
Do let me know what you think! I had so much fun working on Belladonna, she's so vibrant and fun, I wanna try more fairies like her someday. I also need to try using props more. I got these pumpkins and hay bales on sale, and it was fun using them to craft a little temporary set for photos.

Happy Spooky Season! 👻🍁
This was one of those "pff I will get it done in 2 weeks" moments of utter hubris on my part, but alas, my little rendition to Barbie is here~ I fell in love with the classic swimsuit from the 50'/60s and wanted something... "retro-ish" for the vibe 🎶

head sort of airbrushed to color match. ran out of paint, had to stop here though she could really use another coat or two perhaps
thinking maybe I could paint her like Susie Sad Eyes?

This Barbie was in need of a new head! And what better head than a freshly hand painted pumpkin? PLUS she can still turn her head!
(Plus I got to tinker together a new jumpsuit pattern~) https://www.etsy.com/listing/1559698965/ooak-rescue-doll-the-pumpkin-lady

A restless skeleton
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Complaint of the Skeleton to Time
“Take my love, it is not true,
So let it tempt no body new;
Take my lady, she will sigh
For my bed where'er I lie;
Take them, said the skeleton,
But leave my bones alone.
Take my raiment, now grown cold,
To give to some poor poet old;
Take the skin that hoods this truth
If his age would wear my youth;
Take them, said the skeleton,
But leave my bones alone.
Take the thoughts that like the wind
Blow my body out of mind;
Take this heart to go with that
And pass it on from rat to rat;
Take them, said the skeleton,
But leave my bones alone.
Take the art which I bemoan
In a poem's crazy tone;
Grind me down, though I may groan,
To the starkest stick and stone;
Take them, said the skeleton,
But leave my bones alone.”
by Allen Ginsberg

Did I ever share last year's Halloween goblinself doll photoshoot? I can't remember. But I'd planned on making a new costume for her and doing more photos but I think because my hair is drastically different now (not just in color but my mohawks style it's self.) I feel like I just want to make a v2. So no new Halloween photos this year cause I'ma use a budget g3 Draculaura to make a new goblinself doll. A goblinsona doll? A new trash goblin doll. Just a bit hesitant to do so because I want to adjust Dracs chin to be more like mine, but that means sculpting with miliput again and last time I did that it caused me a huge headache trying to color match the damn alterations. But at least this time I'll be making the skintone green so the green miliput might not be so hard to cover. I dunno.
Anyways, here's a potential repeat of last year's goblin costume photos cause I want to start posting and using tumblr more.

I'm toying with the idea of streaming working on her to tumblr live. It feels like a very laid back and chill way to stream, in comparison to how I always felt streaming on Twitch. I just gotta look into it more, and see how I can manage to best capture what I'm working on and be in frame, cause I'm used to doing a two camera set up and all that.
Anyway, happy Halloween and all that!

KEN: HALLOWEEN EDITION
(And) Bad Boy Ken. Because of course.
Am I controversial to say that I might like this one more than how Barbie turned out?
This is Part Two of a two part set.

I was having a really hard time rotating her hand, and when I finally took it off to dress her, I found that her peg was ... rectangular.
