A sampling of things I've been up to

The pictures were taken with my cell phone.  I've been squandering a few ball jointed dolls for several years, because I have never been able to finish the faceups or clothes to my liking. My goal is to get an acceptable faceup on each doll before it gets too cold for painting, and I'll focus on the clothes after that.

 I broke down and bought a few dozen real pastels in appropriate human colors.  I should have done this a long time ago.  It's a night and day difference.  The colors look a thousand times better on the resin.  I still can't paint lower eyelashes at all, so to hell with them.  Previously, I ruined all my work trying hundreds of times to re-do them.  I'll just leave them off completely.
