| See... creepy no face |
"Doll".
It's basically a blank action figure. It's 5 1/2 inches tall. I've named her Mimi (short for Mini Cami).
Anyway, I ordered her on Amazon because she was only like $12 and that was a lot less than all the other sites I was looking at. Downside? Package would arrive sometime in March.
I got lucky and it showed up only a week or two after I ordered. I was stoked.
Anyway, she comes with three sets of hands (open hand, a set for holding and fisted) two sets of feet, and some weapons.
She's pretty bad ass.
But here's the rub.
She's bald.
And had no face.
One of those I could remedy more easily than the other, so I did some research and figured out how to give this little lady a face.
And then I went to Hobby Lobby.
Have I ever mentioned how much I love Hobby Lobby?
Totes my Mecca.
Anyway!
During my research, I figured out the easiest way to put a face on her would be with colored pencils to draw it on, and some fixative to keep it on.
I already have colored pencils and pastels (pastels for giving her face some color), but I didn't have fixative. While at the Hobbs I picked up some other items and held one of my friends captive (you can't really buy only one thing at Hobby Lobby).
With my supplies in hand, I managed to carefully draw on a tiny face for my doll. I had to wipe it off a couple of times because I messed up, but overall I think she doesn't look as soulless as she did before.
Take a look:
I know it's hard to see, but I didn't want it to be over done. At least she has a face now!
And hair... she still need hair.
I'll figure that one out later.
