"Stormy" Rainbow Brite doll (custom)

[mylittELLEpony]

I'm usually very against customizing vintage/retro toys, but I had a damaged La La Orange and a damaged dress-up Rainbow Brite (she's not here yet) and decided to save them and make them into dolls I've wanted for years in the process. The former Rainbow Brite will be posted about eventually, but for now here is my "Stormy". I just finished her hair and face today.

I'm going to make her clothes as soon as I can find the right fabrics. For now she's hanging out on my mom's trinket shelf with some of my other Rainbow Brite dolls.

She super cute! I can't wait to see how her clothes turn out. I'd like to eventually make myself a Stormy too.

Oh! I can't wait to see her all done! You are one talented doll maker if I do say so myself. And I say so!

Thanks, everyone! I've repainted her lips since I took that photo because they were too dark and it was bothering me. I'm going to a fabric store today to get the goods to make her clothes. I'll post new photos once those are done.

She's super cute! I love Stormy. Love Moonglow too.

She's super cute! I love Story. Love Moonglow too.

Moonglow is my HG across any collection, and I have a lot of collections. I could make her, but I want a legit one. Since she exists out there somewhere I'm going to wait it out. There seems to only be one Stormy so I wasn't holding my breath there lol.

I love Stormy
