How to use Monster Lab skins without the lab

Postby DollyKim » Sun Jun 10, 2012 1:34 pm

All you need is a wet rag or sponge and any doll you want to stick the skins on to. I'm talking blank heads, any customs wanting some tattoos, anything in the universe you can put a wet sponge on.

*They don't work well on regular Monster faces or any face that isn't as smooth as possible. I tried on a regular Monster and the skin cracked because of the sculpting of the face. Lab heads are generally smooth for a reason.

Remove clear sheet, stick on doll, wet back of paper, wait 30 seconds, remove paper, enjoy.

Is it strange that I am wondering how these would work on a pony?

I totally think sealing is possible, I plan to do that to Clawdeen, and they certainly will work on a Pony, but they're only found in Lab packs.

My guess is these are like any other temporary tattoo so if you can get the surface wet you can stick one on. ~Wonders what else she has that could use a face~

Yes, you can seal it. : ) People use temp tattoos on their bjds all the time. Sealing makes it stay for a long time.

I updated the first post, you can't really use them on regular Monster faces or anything with too much sculpting. The Lab heads are flat for a good reason, and so are some Obitsu heads. Trim the skins down and put them on one feature at a time, the eyes should work on any doll head without sculpted eyes but the lips might be trickier.

The test face on Clawdeen cracked because of the curve of her sculpting and had to be taken off because it wasn't going to work. You can still put the skins on the bodies of any Monster and cut up the faces to put lips and eyes where ever you want, and they should work on anything you can put them on.
