BLYTHE

I've become a bit obsessed with Blythe dolls as of recently. It's a weird obsession, but I think they're unbelievably cool looking and interesting. I actually ended up purchasing a knock off Blythe doll: the Basaak, from Ebay. She's extremely similar in appearance to the juniemoon versions, which I hope to one day purchase. I will post pictures of her when I can, and I'll also post before and afters of my customization process with her. To give you an idea of what she looks like, she has long black hair with bangs that go to her eyes. Her chips are emerald green, royal blue, silver, and light pink. She came with two outfits, one is a colonial looking dress, another is a short skirt/black shirt combo.

My plans on customizing her are going to be very simple, since it's my first time doing so. I've read a lot of tutorials, and I hope that I'll be able to make her look the way I envision her to look. I want to give her a matte finish with sort of doe looking eyes that look sunken in. I also want to make her lips a little more plump. I'm debating whether or not to purchase chalk pastels or simply use regular makeup.

As for outfits, I want to make high quality dresses/coats/skirts/socks, so that I can sell them on etsy. I want to make them based off of outfits that I find inspiration in. I'll post here when I decide whether or not to do so.
