Got a hair up my ass and painted a doll for my own collection last night. There's an FAO Schwartz exclusive called Crystal Blue Tyler that was featured on the cover of Haute Doll magazine. Yes, that is a real magazine. The Crystal Blue is expensive and I have no use for the evening gown she wears either, so I painted a doll I already had in imitation of Crystal Blue's prototype. Blatant copywrite violation, yes, but I don't intend to sell her and pass her off as my own; like I said, she's for me. Anyway, I'm so pleased with how she turned out and tickled that I finally have the doll I've wanted. Additionally, I think mine's better than the production dolls. Tee hee hee!



Today's my last day to do a repaint for sale because over the weekend I plan to do homework. Better get busy! She's almost done, except for the eyes, which are by far the hardest part. :-p

Very elegant! Like you, I have very little use for ball gowns. I much prefer funky every day clothes or retro-tailored sportswear.

Yeah, I greatly prefer daywear. I like my dolls to look like they're wearing clothes I would select for myself -- if I had any fashion savvy, that is. ;-)
