Is it possible to make a MH female into a male?

[~TurkishDelight~]

Is it possible to sand a Monster High female's chest flatter to look like a male's chest, or would it just make holes in the doll? I thought I might want to make my effeminate male characters out of MH girls since they are the unnatural colors I need. I know there are odd colored males, but I was hoping I could make more feminine male body and put a Volks or Obitsu head. That's another question...Do Volks/Obitsu heads look okay on MH females?

While I haven't tried cutting up a MH doll, but I would assume they're a hollow plastic. However, as they also have rather small busts, you might still be able to get away with sanding it down enough before hitting holes, just have to remember the plastic will be thinner there when you're done then afterward. There is also always the option of filling the holes back up with a putty material.

I'm doing the same thing and yeah, it's hollow:


I'm planning to cover it with Milliput and paint it to match but yeah not a good look so far.

Also I did a temporary MH/Obitsu hybrid a few years back:

She's the second one from the left. The only reason her head matches Cleo's body is that she's a rare limited edition skintone Obitsu released like 6 years ago now.

Ouchies! Thanks guys. Kd_Bunchanumbers, when your project is finished I'd really love to see the results.

Has anyone tried with a little sister like Howleen? (not sure if she's the only smaller MH girl) She might have a smaller chest to begin with, so do you think it would be easier to make her into a male, or has anyone tried and she just made holes too?

might be easier to build up instead of sand down, if you're comfortable working with additive moding. could thicken out the waist and bring it up to the chest to look more like pecs or something.
i've got a random MH body kicking around with no plans for her. i could give it a trial run..
