I didn't have the slightest clue on what is needed for doll customization but thanks to a post on TIB, I now have a starting point. Below are some of the supplies I will be gathering over the next couple of weeks.
Doll Surgery Kit Needs:
320 grit or higher sanding sponges
Soft artist’s pastels
Acrylic Paint
Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue (gold bottle)
Acid-free scrapbooking paper in various colors (foiling eyechips)
.44” Hot glue sticks
Makeup applicator style cotton swabs
Cotton balls
Tiny sewing scissors
Standard hole punch
Paintbrushes (1 square tipped firm, 1 fine tip, 1 angled tip firm)
Needle nose jewelry pliers (spring removal/attachment, arc removal)
Butter knife (great for prying!)
Painter’s tape
Isopropyl Alcohol (makeup removal)
Hair shears
Toothpicks (for spreading glue)
Tiny crochet hook (spring attachment, thatching hair)
Large serving bowl (for head soaking)
Testor’s Dull Cote or MSC
SEM Interior or Krylon Indoor/Outdoor or Krylon Fusion Spray Paint
Mohair
Saran Hair
While I have some of the stuff already here, I still need to purchase a lot. LOL evilbay here I come!
I really want to make a custom black Blythe hence the spray paint. I decided that I'll use Ginger for this experiment since she already has a Licca body, supposedly those bodies take paint better than the standard Blythe bodies.
Is it pay day yet? LOL
