    Wow she looks beautiful. She's looks a bit spooky but also kind of friendly and I love it. The tail looks absolutely fantastic, these colors shifting from green to blue to purple fit very well to the mermaid theme and her general color palette. I love her! 💚💙

    What a clever idea to use the dragon tail. It looks amazing. And I love her hair, the colors and the curls.
    Blender is a free 3d design and sculpting program btw, if you're interested in giving that a go. There's also tinkercad but it's way more basic

  • @masksenpai5889
    @masksenpai5889 3 года назад +33

    the reason why the curls didn’t work out is because you used many different curling techniques. I have black hair so i knew what you were trying do but failed to do. using all those techniques was gonna make it look weird in every angle. cause you had tight curls, loose curls, coils and more. If you wanted different textures make them colder threes type like coils with tight curls etc. so next time it looks better!
    hope this helps! 🥰

  • @thefreckledevil6090
    @thefreckledevil6090 3 года назад +4

    I'm surprised at how well the dragon tail works for a mermaid! It gives more of a sea serpent vibe to the mermaid, which makes her feel a bit spookier, like a dark fairytale. Great job! 🧜🏻‍♀️

    It's really funny, I'm printing a BJD dragon tail too to use on a "mermaid" doll. I'm useing it to make a sea snake-mermaid-creature-thing doll myself. 3D printers are really the best thing ever, so much so I'm saving for a resin printer next. Though I'm in a setback, my fiancee thought watercolor pencils were all the same an got Faber-Castell Watercolor Pencil set an I don't know if they will work on dolls. IDK...

    Since you mentioned mermaids would probably be bald so you made her a wig instead of rerooting her hair ,I tried to think up a reason why mermaids would make wigs, and my best idea was along the lines of sirens that would kill men or to keep themselves warm or to keep their skin from drying out when they were out of the water. It’s really interesting to think that all mermaids just make themselves wigs adds to the fun
