Monster Mash

[OutBriefCandle]

Well, I found out where all of the Monster High dolls in Pittsburgh have been hanging out. At the little toystore in the middle of Downtown. Lots of Gloom Beach including Abby, a couple Deuce Gorgons, couple Toralei, several CAM sets and add-ons, Operetta, and a Sweet 1600 Clawd Wolf.

Well, they had Clawd Wolf. Now I have Clawd Wolf. I liked this version much better in person than I thought I would, though I'm going to have to wash the glue out of the hair on him too (Toralei's was glued but very neat and looked nice, his is pretty messy) and tint his claws darker. And I miiiight paint over the fangs on his lips not sure yet.

I love his hands. XD

Jackson, the cat twins, Howleen, and the three new girls are <3. Plus the 'costumed' versions are amazing, I will have to get Frankie and DLaura at least. And *playsets*! Have _no_ room for anything playset related, but really want to see them anyway.

They're also coming out with a Coffin Bean playset that comes with a Clawdeen.

I got it, I got it
I got a home ick frankie. not my top choice, but I love the sewing theme!

next, wash out her bangs, repaint the face and trim up the ends of her hair. <3

frankie's face paint is not wanting to come off.

Try blotting with a q-tip dipped in acetone nail polish remover. Don't rub or it will smear. You'll want to rinse well with water.

I also discovered by accident if you boil the head, stick it in a mug or bowl of water in the microwave for a couple of minutes and repeat you might melt some of the face off. While its still warm rub with a rag and the face might go.

I got most of it off with the acetone and a q-tip, but then there came a point where the eyeliner and parts of the lipstick just won't come off with acetone.

I have 400 grit sandpaper so I'm going carefully in the corners to take off some of it before trying the acetone again

A Magic Eraser sponge is more doll friendly.

And sometimes I've had to let things rest, then I'll take acetone to it again. If it makes sense use your fingernail to scrape the fluffy part of the q-tip on stubborn spots.

yeah, next time I'll get a magic sponge. luckly the sandpaper worked pretty well.

I'm just going to do some pastels tonight and wait till daylight to do the rest. this stuff is way different then resin!
