But I was asked to make Jack Frost once again – he will be a surprise for person who was born just before winter 🙂
This time I’ve used brushed acrylic yarn instead of alpaca fur, that was used for earlier Jack creations. And yes, I will state it every time I work with yarn – there is nothing better for male doll hairstyles than brushed yarn ❤ IT LOOKS PERFECT!
Mia is my personal doll project, made to test some new skills, new drawing techniques and lines, along with new materials used. Her head was shrunken with fast method [100% acetone used] to match body proportions, she have a yarn wig on self adhesive cap instead of reroot. New eye style was also tested on this sweet face.
She still needs eyelashes and gloss to be applied on her eyes, but since my gloss varnish run out, I need new bottle to come…
I wanted to test yarn wigs for quite some time now, but not every yarn you’ll buy will work for these. So I’ve spend several months just on searching, testing, and picking what was working best for me. And I must say I fell in love with how acrylic yarn looks! It is almost human-hair looking on dolls – the texture and fiber thickness are just perfect, and what is the most amazing part – you can style them to look like they’re flowing on gentle wind ❤
I am super-happy with how she turned out, and how many new things I’ve learned 🙂
BTW – some say she looks like Avril Lavigne younger self.
