I've been working for the last month on a Pullip style doll modeled after Lydia Martin from Teen Wolf. I bought an Angelgate head (knockoff Pullip head with no eye mechanism) and a 27cm Obitsu body in white.

The face-up came out really nice! I used a combination of pastels and watercolors.

The eyes ended up not fitting in the sockets properly with the eyelids in place, so I had to take them out and reglue the lashes to the sockets.

She looks great in the two outfits I bought, so here are some pics I took before the wig arrived.

The red wig I ordered was come from Malaysia and was taking forever to arrive. I ended up finding a blonde wig on Etsy for $8 and bought that too. It arrived super fast. The red wig arrived today, though, and the fibers are a much better quality. She looks so amazing in the red wig!

The blue dress was made by my friend, Nikki, out of leftover fabric from the Lydia dress I added sleeves to.

I really love this doll, but I'm having two problems: I can't find shoes that I like that fit without having to take the feet off and also the wig makes the head heavy and flip backwards. I'll have to fix both of those at some point.
