What are you working on? (Custom MH projects)
« on: March 26, 2013, 05:01:20 PM »
Just curious to see what MH custom projects people are working on right now!  Here are my two current projects: 

Hairing my seamonster:

But I ran out of both of her hair colors so I moved on to...

Hairing my vampire girl:

Her hair is a blend of forget-me-not and bobby blue but it's so difficult to pick that up in photos of her.  It looks really cool IRL though, I promise!

I'm going to do a little bit of paint work on both girls once I'm done hairing them, too.  I really don't like the vampire girl's red lipstick.

So!  What are you working on?

I'm still in the beginning stage of my first rerooting of my OC plant girl. Just need to get some hair.

Since we're in a thread about Customs, Let me hijack the thread for a quick moment:

What kinda hair material does what? I know it's been mentioned a few times but I can't remember what I read.

Kanekalon = no kinks or bends in hair, but shrivels and afroed when boil straightened
Nylon = Can only be styled straight and not boil permed/straightened
Saran = Can easily be styled with high temperature

I need to decide the right texture for her so please correct me if it's off, I need to know what does what.

And how much hair from who fills a whole MH head?? The hair style I'm going for is just about lower than the shoulder, about going down to her bust.

Sounds like me, I know what colors I want to use on my spare Jinafire, but not sure if I can live with her hair.  Also inspired by some detail work I have recently seen so maybe some body painting.  I know the imp has a bunch of things she wants to do, but I have told her she needs to finish a few projects first.

I am currently working on (since December) a set of 7 jackalope customs. So far, all the ears are sculpted, painted, more or less flocked, and one head is rehaired. Another is juust started, and one is halfway to being rehaired, but I am almost out of the color I'm using, and need to order more.

Here is my list of to-dos but haven't started yet...

1. Jinafire - red rehair and reddish face up
2. Jinafire - green rehair and greenish face up
3. Catrine - changed into Siamese
4. Catrine - change into calico
5. Sister Clawdeen - turned to Greek goddess with brown hair/highlights
 
I also have a box of dolls to practice my face ups on

OMG! I love the Siamese idea! Can't wait to see that and the Jinafires! She is my fave ghoul! Well, she and countless others, but her promo pic got me totally hooked after Opie opened the door.

Very fashion forward and it reminds me somehow of Chanel, can't say why, but it does!

Hoping to soon start my first custom MH doll. For now, I've been practicing my first reroot and repaint on a Barbie. :)

Alice is scaring me  :shocked:

yes Nana-Rena exactly =D i love Chanel, it's my favourite fashion designer and now i've made this dress I guess Lala + Chanel = happy wedding :p

By a wonderful chance I've studied sewing in the same region as coco chanel nearly one century before me :p

And I love her style, classical but fashion, with nude, pearl, black and white style... I can talk about fashion all the day  :blush:
