I’m going to go out of my comfort zone, and try something new with face-ups!
When I do face-ups on my own dolls I usually just start without having much of an idea how I want the doll to end up. So this time I’m doing research first! I’m not going to copy someone else’s face-up, but get inspired and see what colors I like together, what sort of eyebrows I like, and so on.
I’m terrible with colors, but this time I’m going to try using a bit different colors than what I usually do. I still want to use warm colors, but I’m going to try and stay away from red for the eyeshadow for once, lol ^^
Lastly, I’m going to try and pile it on! Most of my face-ups end up sort of pale, maybe even a bit washed out. I think I do it because I’m too impatient, and also I’m scared it’ll be too much. But if I want to learn and get better, I can’t afford to be scared, and I have to experiment.
I only wish MSC was cheaper and easier to come by. Thats the main reason why I’m so careful with face-ups. I’m scared I’ll end up with a horrible looking doll and no spray D:
Anyway! Chloe and Lusis are both up for new face-ups, so they’ll be my test subjects, mohaha! I hope I’ll start this project soon, but I’m going to take my time. I usually finish a face-up within an hour, but not this time! If I feel I’m stuck, I’m going to put them away and continue later.
Wish me luck <3
