Evening in Montreal Victoire Roux

A new girl arrived recently, so I took some pics of her.

This first one is Integrity Toy's picture of

I love her makeup, shoes and jewelry... 
but that asymmetrical dress isn't really my thing,
so I'll be selling off the dress, fur piece and gloves XD

I also wasn't a huge fan of her super hard hair do...
that thing was nailed into place (literally 0_0)

So I took it down, and she has the most lovely, soft hair
once you wash it out.

Here are my pics:

Did you notice her lack of joints? XD

Repaint: Color Infusion Camira Domina

Yeah... 
I had fallen in love with the sculpt when I saw my friend's Color Infusion C
gal from the 2012 Integrity Toys convention...

so I sought out my own Color Infusion C,
now named Camira Domina (by Integrity, not by me),
from the 2013 Integrity Toys convention...

Uhm, she looka' like a prostitute 0_0

Talk about hideous under-eye makeup ;_;

Still, I wanted the mold, so I got her,
and repainted her.

Below is just a quick "Before and After"
Better pics to come:

Left: Before, Right: After

I love her hair color and don't want to change it,
so I tried to give her a more natural look that worked with it.

Adventurer's Club Mid Month Reminder!

Have you joined in this month's Adventure?

Check it out here:

Also, don't forget to check the Adventurer's Club tab at the top of the page for the entries so far!
(If you don't see your entry, please let me know!!!)

Mid Month Tutorial: aveuch's hair styling tutorial

 


 
I booted up the ol' ipad and went to flickr, where aveuch has her tutorial...
this hair style looks pretty cute!
 
Supplies:
1. Scissors
2. Pipe Cleaner
3. Flowers or other embellishments (if you so choose)
 
 
 
Step 1:
Fold the pipe cleaner in half,
then place the hair between it, as shown below.
Try to get all the little ends in there (in other words... better than I've done in this pic -_-;; )
 
 
 
Step 2:
Twist the side of the pipe cleaner with the fold into a tight loop.
 
 
 
Step 3:
Twist the other side of the pipe cleaner so it holds the hair tight.
 
 
Step 4:
Roll the pipe cleaner upward.
aveuch says it's important to fold upward (so that the pipe cleaner is rolled into the hair, not towards the neck), that way if your doll has layered hair, it hides the layers.
 
 
 
Step 5:
Fold the pipe cleaner that the hair is wrapped around in half, creating a loop.
Twist ends together.
 
 
 
 
Step 6:
Trim off the extra long ends of the pipe cleaner.
 
 
 
Step 7:
Now that you've trimmed off the excess, tuck the ends of the pipe cleaner into the hair.
Add embellishments if you so choose (I did not for this one), and you're done!
 
 
 
 •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Conclusion:
I loved this simple tutorial!
It was easy to figure out and follow!
I absolutely recommend it!!!!
