Mystic Kids 1/4 Discussion

@xyuemoto Glade looks lovely! He has such a cozy looking reading nook!

Got to take some nice photos of Kaine! His wig still won't let me style it the same way twice, but we've just come to accept his hair's eccentricity.

 

@Magnus Vale - Thanks. Kaine's wig looks cool in all your photos of him.

 

@xyuemoto It's the strangest wig, but it does look good! I purchased it years ago on Ebay for a completely different doll, but it suited Kaine so well that it stayed with him! It always seems to rearrange itself in strange ways everytime I take it off to dress him.

 

An autumn day.

 

I bought a Mystic Kids Nicole on a whim last week from the Junkyspot, and she came today. I usually do all of my dolls’ faceups myself, so I was initially planning on wiping her. But I totally fell in love today when I opened her, so it looks like her company faceup will be staying until it chips or something and I have to redo it. Really loving her so far, and the undies she came in was such a cute touch.

 

Replaced Kaine's eyes today! I loved the old pair, but the irises were just too big.

 

@Magnus Vale - Cool eyes. They look like they have swirls of colours in them.

 

@xyuemoto They're a really pretty pair that has both shades of blue and violet in them.

Kaine wants to know if anyone notices anything new? XD

 

@Magnus Vale - He didn't have the arm design before, haha. Really cool. I'm waiting for the body for my floating kdf head, and I'm going to be painting his arms.

 

@xyuemoto It was my first time sealing a doll and applying a tattoo, so I was super nervous.. I'm glad it came out as well as it did! Unlike the other tattoo that I tried to do with my watercolor pencils on another doll, haha...

 

@Magnus Vale - I'm going to use acrylic paint and hope I don't make any mistakes, haha.

 

@xyuemoto Well, I wish you luck, be sure to show off the results! As for me, I'm investing in a better set of pencils and going to try my luck again when they arrive. I also want to start trying face-ups eventually, so it's an investment. Today I learned sealing and removing, so that's a start at least!

I might end up giving Kai a few more tattoos eventually, maybe on his lower arms in gold to match the upper arm. I also want to do something on Meta's chest to highlight his pearl, but that's later when I get more practice. In the meantime, I have all of these pretty foil tattoos I bought like the one on Kai, so definitely want to figure out who I want to wear them!

 

It's been an exciting week for Meta - not only did he get his new custom horns, but I also body blushed him and gave him a manicure and pedicure! I'll have to show off some pictures of the magic tattoo I did on his chest later.

 

@Magnus Vale - He looks cool. I want to try hand blushing sometime but I should get better at faceups first, haha.

 

@xyuemoto Thanks! Hand blushing isn't too bad, actually, most of the blushing is just pastel, then I used paints for the nails. I actually had some pearlescent white paint, which was perfect for Meta's pearl theme. The art shop near where I work also has some really nice soft pastels for sale too, so I've been picking up some that are prefect for blushing.

Here's a pic of his chest markings.

 

@Magnus Vale - Nice!

 

I'm looking to get a mini girl who will wear pretty dresses (as opposed to the hoodie gremlin I have now, lol), and I think she's going to ve an Evelyn! I was torn between her and Caroline, but this thread reminded me to check instagram for owner photos! Thanks guys ❤

 

I've been wanting to add a Mystic Kids Lillian to my collection for quite some time now, and I'm thinking this October sale might be the time to do it.... Anyone have any pictures of their Lillians to sway me?

 

Tasty treats.

 

Wow they look kind of mysterious. Love it.
