I finished the wig and it was indeed too large for the intended doll. I had an old My Scene Barbie head someone sold me for a buck. It was just for practicing painting. I never did do anything with the Belle body that I didn't like the posing ability. So I snapped the practice head on the Belle body and came up with a recycled doll. I painted a new face on the head, sealed her with my usual art spray. Gave her a handmade Barbie dress and some Barbie shoes. She can't wear all Barbie shoes but the jelly ones that can give a little work. Belle's feet seem to be a bit wider than Barbie's.
The doll had what looked like a couple of red ink dots on her chin. I tried acetone and alcohol to no avail. So I put some freckles over them so they wouldn't look like zits. I thought it would be cute if she had zits though. Her mouth really is open, not just painted to look like it.
My wig making is pretty good. I would improve if I knew how. Actually styling hair is the worst part for me. I know absolutely nothing about styling hair. The color is close to copper, so I am thinking auburn.
Her eyes are aquamarine.
