[NAMELESS]
A custom fake Blythe doll (let’s be real here – not factory, not “TBL”, but fake) with a forest green scalp. No carving, but new makeup, fancy eyechips, and a massive attitude problem. Pretty much completed in the space of an afternoon, because my hands took over and all of a sudden I wanted to try out eyebrows and eyeliner on a Blythe…
Minor Changes: Maria, Berlin, Juniper, Leemoo
These girls all had their stock eyechips replaced with Brainworm or Ixtee chips. Leemoo was spray matted with Mister Super Clear to preserve her original factory makeup, whereas the other girls were sanded.
