I am not a doll artist, but a paper+pencil/paint+canvas artist. I like to look at doll art channels (such as yourself) for inspiration when I have artist block. So, thanks for being so great!
hire her for what? Mattel doesn't really need artists. their dolls aren't supposed to be one of a kind and gorgeous, they don't care about quality as long as they get their cash.
Watching the blushing is literally my favorite part of any of your videos. The flat skin tone to the defined, layered tones. 😍😍😍 It's ridiculously relaxing.
I want to agree more but I can’t I really think that if barbie styling head dolls were made like she made it, they would get more sells cuz little girls would like a pretty doll
You have opened my world to doll repaints!! I'm a tattoo artist, jewelry designer, and I crochet. Now I'm absolutely obsessed with taking my crafts, combining them, and seeing where I can take Doll restoration. Thank you!!! You have definitely been my biggest inspiration for adding this craft to my life. I can't wait to complete my first repaint!!!!
I draw and paint alot. I had a brain tumor when I was 13 that made it hard for me to talk and express myself so art was my real only way of communicating for awhile. I'm not a doll artist but you've inspired me to keep practicing on the things I get stuck on like eyes for example. Thanks for all the encouragement and for sharing your beautiful talent ❤️
your dolls are always beautiful, but I use your videos as ASMR to help me go to sleep almost every night now, you're voice is so calm and soothing to me. so thank you.
I asked my friends and family for any art supplies they no longer use. That's how I got most of my acrylic paints, glitter and a large collection of beads. It really helped cut down on cost.
I usually don't really like the lashes you put on them because I feel like they're just way too long for the size of the dolls, but for such a big doll they worked perfectly, love it!
I LOVE that you used fake lashes!! I had to watch without sound and the whole time I was just praying you would 😂 also I love that you contour their faces. It really brings it that extra mile. You should do more large heads!! 💕 you’ve got me wanting to try this out.
I'm a fairly new doll artist. I love watching your videos for tips on contouring and highlighting faces. You make the dolls look so much more alive and interesting!!
I had no idea this was possible. I used to dress dolls and loved it. If I had choices I would have done this for a living. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Watching you do these dolls relieves so much stress and really comforts me. I’m not sure why but it does. Your work is so wonderful, you’re very talented!
I don't repaint dolls (I have done one and quickly learned that I do not have the right materials/brushes/sealant. The only thing that went well was rerooting lol) but I do make monster high doll clothes and doll furniture. I spend my spare time watching many things, including doll repaints. I absolutely love OoaK dolls and hope to be able to completely customize them someday. Thank you for showing the process. I love seeing it done on a larger scale!
I’ve just recently started repainting and repairing dolls, but I love it. There’s no wrong way to do it, and if you don’t like how it turns out, you can wipe it off and start over. It’s a fun way to express emotion honestly!
Oh my God, she looks so real!! I love her, and I love that you put so much effort into it! This was really helpful, I would love to start customizing dolls someday!
I am so grateful to have found your tutorials!!! I was a "Reborn Doll" artist for over ten years. I stopped making dolls because I got tired of baking the doll parts which created the layers . I know that just the thought makes some people sick. And the oils were "smellie". "Waaaa laaaaaa! You have changed my life. I have watched many of your tutorials, and I am ready to "give it a go". Thank you so much, Rhonda
just recently started doing full repaints after a lot of practice on the same doll, it gives you such a rad opportunity to get creative with your face shapes so no doll looks the same!!! Also your repaint is super gorgeous, the yellow detail in the eyes is totally stunning!!
It's interesting to see that the doll had a nice sculpt underneath the ugly factory paint... And you made it even better. I would have been interested in seeing a reroot of a doll so big but I guess reattaching the head would probably be problematic 😂 excellent job!
Wow... those eyes. The dimension you brought to them is almost tangible. I can actually see her waterline. Her face and body are so well-defined and lifelike! You inspire me! I’m just beginning Doll customizing!
thank you! I would say that the best way to start is to practice first on paper drawing eyes, and if you can do it on paper, you will be able to do it on dolls as well
Poppen Atelier thank you so much for the reply! I’m pretty good at drawing so I guess I’ll have to go find some supplies. I’m going to binge watch your videos to see what all I would need.
My dream was to have a doll like that in 90's. Here in Brazil, she was called "My Model", but this one you repainted is infinity times better and I loved it! ♥unicorn kisses♥
Wow! That's amazing, she's stunning now! I only do faceups on resin ball jointed dolls. They have glass eyes you put in them so I've never had to paint eyes before. Her eyes look amazing, so lifelike! She's so alive now, great job!
Beautiful! I like the big heads!!!! Can you do a latina or african american dollhead? Lol and can you put it up for sale on etsy? I love your repaints!!!
I really like your videos!!! I watch them a lot but I would really like if you did more brown eyed dolls! You don't have to but I think it would be nice! I love you a lot thank you for making these videos :)
I just started working with dolls and have found it to be really fun. I just picked up two Doll busts for free one is really small and the other is the size you’ve been working on. Maybe sometime I’ll try and repaint them.
Beautiful work! I never realized how using the larger Barbie head with colored pencils would be a great way to practice repainting dolls once I got the hang of it. I have to find one of these at a Goodwill or thrift shop.
I am not a doll artist, but a paper+pencil/paint+canvas artist. I like to look at doll art channels (such as yourself) for inspiration when I have artist block. So, thanks for being so great!
Hadley Larson you're amazing
lol how so?
Hadley Larson i
I do the same! I watch makeup artists to get some inspiration))
Hadley Larson omg love your profile picture
Honestly, Barbie needs to hire her. She should professionally do this for a living.
I made it 101 likes mwuahahah people with ocd y'all probably hate me now
I mean......she kinda does do this for a living😂😂
@@zofiamatyjaszek5802 what's ocd?
· ̊ ༘ mae it’s a disorder that a lot of people actually struggle with that consists of intrusive thoughts, and compulsions. you should google it.
hire her for what? Mattel doesn't really need artists. their dolls aren't supposed to be one of a kind and gorgeous, they don't care about quality as long as they get their cash.
Omg u should make a doll that looks like yourself! 😃😃
Is that a sneaky way of asking for a face reveal?
Ricecakes Animations she’s already done a few
I'd love to see you do a reroot on the awful hair these big old heads come with. I'm in awe of your work!
Yes!
I think these big doll heads would make awesome canvases for a Drag make up look.
KayleyAnneF What a great suggestion!!
Guess what!
Yes
I'm not a doll artist. I just like watching you repaint dolls and make them look pretty.
Same
Me too. Though I am thinking of trying this to help with character development - I'm an author...
I’ve never seen a doll repaint on a big doll like this!! Loved being able to see how you do what you do better
Tatjana '-' me either
Tatjana '-' bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu bu 😂😂😂😂😂🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🖕🖕🖕🖕
Mercedes Guzman excuse me? What do you mean?
Татьяна? Ты русская?
Karly Elf no I am not russian
I feel like I learn so much about drawing faces from you. On a doll or not, these are great tips. And your creations are gorgeous!
You made her from looking akward and scary to beautiful and natural! You are very talented!
I'm so impressed by your knowledge of colour, shading, and depth. It's amazing how much time and care goes into each project!
I'm not a doll artist, though I really love seeing the dolls people customize and would love to join in the hobby someday
She is beautiful I would love to see more larger dolls like this one. Love your work 😘😍
thank you! I will for sure try to look for some more of them!
ddf
The before and after shot made me snort, the before just looks so ridiculous now that the doll actually has human features! Nice work!
Right? The new eyes are so much more full of life.
Watching the blushing is literally my favorite part of any of your videos. The flat skin tone to the defined, layered tones. 😍😍😍 It's ridiculously relaxing.
The original was seriously awful, and the hair pfffff.... You did a great job even fixing the hair up, to me it looked like a lost cause. Beautiful
I want to agree more but I can’t I really think that if barbie styling head dolls were made like she made it, they would get more sells cuz little girls would like a pretty doll
Omg!! She's GORGEOUS!!! I would love to see more "large doll" repaints on your channel 😉
Your accent is so comforting :)
Ella Stiletto I've thing the same.

I'm new to the doll artist hobby! Watching your videos really helped me get the shadowing down and my dolls seem so much more alive now ❤️

This turned out amazing! Before she looked so fake but now she is realistic and beautiful! ❤
thank you!
So realistic, it looks 100 times better than the last. I'm not a fan of Barbie but what you do is so gorgeous.
I've seen these at my dollar store and I plan to do something like this. Thanks for showing the process
Jennifer A have you done it yet.?? If so, how did it come out.?
All the best to you then
All the best to you then
Sub me back
I want to try this too, might be easier to start on one of these bigger ones.
your dolls are always beautiful, but I use your videos as ASMR to help me go to sleep almost every night now, you're voice is so calm and soothing to me. so thank you.
This deserves more recognition
I'm dabbling in doll painting right now. I just finished the face of my first Monster High, so I'm pretty excited.
very cool! good luck!
Im an amateur doll artist, i love watching you and so many other doll artists, it inspires me so much 😘
Pol Doll I love dollightful
cameron Williams Same!! And Andreja, and Hextian, and Moonlight Jewel, soooo many amazingly talented artists out there
Pol Doll SAMEEEEEE
Pol Doll is the doll in your profile picture yours? It’s gorgeous!
I like to draw. The more I watch these doll videos the more I want to try it!
When I have the money to spare I'm going to repaint my first doll!
Ani Sapphire just go get a doll from a thrift store!
Reply just go to a thrift store that's what I do
I asked my friends and family for any art supplies they no longer use. That's how I got most of my acrylic paints, glitter and a large collection of beads. It really helped cut down on cost.
This one is the BEST you've ever painted. The eyes are excellent, the lashes are not huge.
Oh wow this was the biggest doll makeover yet!
She started off looking so cheap too, but transformed very beautifully of course
Wow! She looks so much better!
You ugly
Chevy Nipp not cool dude
The cultists lair ok and
Yes, I agree. Barbie has been "brought to life", as it were.
What do we have here? A troll, how original Chevy Nipp. Crawl back under your rock. You're a pathetic human 😂😒
Wow, she’s stunning!
She’s very beautiful.😍💜
This transformation is absolutely lovely!
Looks awesome. I'm an actress n a fashion designer n I love dolls, I'm trying to repaint my dolls for the 1st time
she looks so good! i especially love the touch of the reflection in the eye highlights
I usually don't really like the lashes you put on them because I feel like they're just way too long for the size of the dolls, but for such a big doll they worked perfectly, love it!
K
K your contradicting yourself
MamaMiahhh where do I contradict myself?
+MamaMiahhh They aren't contradicting themselves as they say they don't usually or normally like them but on a bigger doll they are perfect for it
MamaMiahhh I feel like you don’t know what “contradict” means.
More of the bigger Barbie heads please. I love being able to see more of the details. Beautiful!!
There is so much joy in your voice. I love your commentary. The doll turned out beautiful. Keep up the amazing work.
Wow the eyes look amazing so far! Pretty realistic.
Love the eyes. Must be so nice to have all that extra space to put in all the details and not have them get lost.
yes! it was really a pleasure for me to draw on her!
This is the content I signed up for

She does makeup 1000x times better than the *BEAUTY GURUS* 🔥
Wow! The finished doll 🙀 you are so incredibly talented, I wish I could do this.
Milkymoles. Jjjgretg7%🐱🦁🐯🐯🐅🦄🐎🐎🐎🦌🦌🐈🦁🦁🐯🐯ffd
I wish too ! Mine would be so scary if I do this 😂😂
you should re do her hair too!
beautiful!
Oh my God! I love the realistic touches and how beautiful it came out!
I had no idea this was possible. I used to dress dolls and loved it. If I had choices I would have done this for a living. Thanks for sharing your talent.

Before the repaint, it looks like a cheap doll. After the repaint, now.it looks like an art piece.
I’m not an artist. But I do love to write. I absolutely love this tutorial!!! She’s so pretty so much better than the original!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’ve just recently started repainting and repairing dolls, but I love it. There’s no wrong way to do it, and if you don’t like how it turns out, you can wipe it off and start over. It’s a fun way to express emotion honestly!
Wow! This is by far my favorite transformation. She turned out absolutely beautiful!
Oh my God, she looks so real!! I love her, and I love that you put so much effort into it! This was really helpful, I would love to start customizing dolls someday!
It looks so creepy how realistic it looks. I like this WAYYYYY better then the original doll
More of these! With new hair and everything! 😍😍
I am so grateful to have found your tutorials!!! I was a "Reborn Doll" artist for over ten years. I stopped making dolls because I got tired of baking the doll parts which created the layers .

She looks like a real person, so pretty!
It looks SO much better ! Nice work! 😲💚
Witte Artistry yes ikr!
😊
Witte Artistry isn’t that what happens in all her vids lol
just recently started doing full repaints after a lot of practice on the same doll, it gives you such a rad opportunity to get creative with your face shapes so no doll looks the same!!! Also your repaint is super gorgeous, the yellow detail in the eyes is totally stunning!!

Anyone else find these transformations soothing?
Dangggg! When’s Mattel gonna hire you? This is insane! You’re super good at this! You should truly be paid!
I’m surprised no one has done a hyper realistic painting on one of these busts
Marisa Rogers I don't think it's possible, the eyes are way too big
Lucy Montes maybe if clay was added to make eyelids/ half-lidded eyes, it would make it look more realistic.
Wow... those eyes. The dimension you brought to them is almost tangible. I can actually see her waterline. Her face and body are so well-defined and lifelike! You inspire me! I’m just beginning Doll customizing!
The eyes are stunning! My favorite part by far.
U are an amazing doll artist, she looks a million times better! I love your work, I hope to see more large doll repaints!

Absolutely gorgeous! I love the soft natural look.
sometimes I wonder if the people who make barbies have ever seen a real person before XD this is amazing!!
her eyes look like glass eyes!! it's amaxing!!! :0
I love this tutorial I would love for you to do more on larger doll heads like this
I think I will do it for sure! it was really fun for me!
I was not a doll artist until I binge watched your work and now im an aspiring doll artist
I really want to start doing doll art and I appreciate you naming the tools you use so I have a better idea of what to buy!
It's cool because it still looks like Barbie just more realistic
Amazing job!!!! Love it!!! You sound so happy and full of passion. You go girl!!!
She is so pretty she has such a bubbly look to her and I can imagine her running around some flowers.
her eyes are so detailed and pretty!! good job!
Wow. She looks 1000 times better with your beautiful work. And yes those bangs were terrible. Amazing work.
Beautiful! I like the big heads!!!! Can you do a latina or african american dollhead? Lol and can you put it up for sale on etsy? I love your repaints!!!
I wil try to find more big heads to repaint, I would also love to repaint other skin color doll heads, not just typical blond barbies
Fellow Latina 🙋🏻♀️ I vote for a Hispanic doll too, maybe with some red lips and lined eyes 💄👁
I love this!!! I do not do doll repaints but your videos make me want to!!! ☺😍
Kaitlin D me to
You NEED to do more of these she looks soo real and it looks really good please do another one I can’t wait for the next one
I just love how when you gloss the eyes and lips the doll seems to come to life!
Ikr...it’s amazing!
She looks like a real head! Great job! She’s so pretty!
Please repaint the doll head that salon used to practice haircut... I would love to see that
I really like your videos!!! I watch them a lot but I would really like if you did more brown eyed dolls! You don't have to but I think it would be nice! I love you a lot thank you for making these videos :)
Omg what a transformation. Amazing.
Wow! how much more lively and real she looks! Wonderful. Mattel should hire you!
I just started working with dolls and have found it to be really fun. I just picked up two Doll busts for free one is really small and the other is the size you’ve been working on. Maybe sometime I’ll try and repaint them.
I love her accent!
Omg i can’t even draw a circle properly why am I here 😂😂
Edit: you incredibly talented btw💕
Literal same
Omg😱 you are an amazing artist! She came together beautifully 🤩😍
Awesome! I am not doll repainter, but can appreciate your skill and artistry.
