I actually have started doll customizing this year after being inspired by artists by you, my first two dolls were obviously crud cause I didn’t have the right materials, but I’m getting better

[@shuou2794]

That’s nice

[@driedleaf6615]

I wish you good luck in improving.

That's so amazing to hear! Wishing you the best on your doll journey!

thats awesome i too was inspired by etellan and dolightful and ive tried customising a doll before but i gave up im glad to see you are persevering and i hope you get better as you go on :))

[@misssquiggles7449]

If you ever feel the need to shelf a project in fear that it's not good enough, just remember. There is no such thing as perfection when you're human. Keep trying, try new things, and show your creations to the world. You are absolutely brilliant and creative and amazing with what you do, so please never feel the need to shelf a project. Stepping away is good to see clearer and fix up things you don't like but please don't be afraid to show your work. We all will love it, no doubt!

[@SupportMensMentalHealth]

Even if you dont like it someone will. You're never going to create perfection and you cant please all of the people all of the time and there is no such thing as failure, just a learning experience. Sometimes putting up a doll you dont feel is right might get you some hints, tricks and tips from your viewers. Remember...its not a failure, it's a trial run x

your idea about recreating an old doll with new techniques sounds really interesting and I hope you'll follow through with it in the new year! I'd also like to see you paint more anime figurines if you're up for it

[@etellan]

I definitely would love to give it a go😍 Definitely keen on more anime figures as well!

[@connor4868]

I love how each doll customizer has that one thing that's unique and special about their dolls. for dollightfull it's the body modification and clothes and bright colors. for you it's the ethereal feeling your dolls give, the details, their faces. your dolls almost reach out of the screen. I love your dolls faces, especially their eyes.

[@Lumophobia]

Snuggled up from the cold October air watching you bring dolls to life - the music in these coupled with your voice/accent is just so perfect

[@user-wv3sc4zx4t]

Your videos are so lovely and calm; really relaxing to watch. Her hair and face are so intricate and beautiful. Thank you for sharing your work.

Really love the no clothes dolls. It's amazing how texture and enhancing certain areas of the body can breathe so much character and life into it! Also crazy about the starter doll, might go look for her myself. As always, love your work and would love to see more dolls with focus on the body blushing/texture! 🖤

[@kstar1489]

She’s absolutely beautiful. And this video was quite calming and relaxing to watch, too. I love how your dolls have this quality I can’t explain except shimmering and mysterious, glowing and with so much detail. They all look quite ethereal and even magical with an equally ethereal expression on their face

The doll came out absolutely gorgeous. As for art stuff, I've been working on a big painting for a couple months now (I'm giving it to my dad for Christmas) of a glass mural from a game we both play.

[@morganw.4711]

I just love how you draw around the eye molding and make the face work for you. It makes the dolls look dreamy and introspective.

she would look so cute with some sort of net or macrame side pouch with sea glass or something in it. i love that u didnt clothe her, her sculpt is so beautiful. i love all ur repaints, this one is so lovely.

[@ness8193]

I really loved your choice to highlight her incredible sculpt instead of covering it, she's one of my favorite MH dolls. I have one I'm saving to customize until I've had a bit of experience doing it. You always draw out the best of what's there, and add such a distinctly Etellan style, and the results are always so lovely.

[@paxleviathan]

i love ahsoka! she's probably the main reason i'm in the star wars fandom. i could go on for ages about why she's an amazing character.

[@rookthehuman]

Stunning as always. I drew a rabbit in the moon while listening and watching. You’re a part of my inspiration

[@SmittenKitten.]

A BEAUTIFUL doll!!! I often find myself working on one project (I sew), but stopping to work on another because a new idea struck me, and it sounded more interesting/fun/prettier/etc. I eventually come back to the unfinished piece and wonder, "Why did I stop working on this??" Perhaps this happens to you, too!

[@thatsveryverysweetofyou9023]

it's nice to turn mystical, urban legends to just miniature waifus. It's just much appreciated. Keep going, laddie.

[@sararoseelliott2792]

How do you only have 84k subscribers?!? These are by far the most beautiful doll repaints ive ever seen. The detail you put into those eyes....wow. I love hextian and poppen- i think they do more of the cartoon/doll look. These have that quality while being so so realalistic

[@purpleheart3431]

You are by far my favorite doll customizer on KZbin. Your videos just evoke this sense of calm and I really need that. Your art style is so unique and beautiful with the saturated colors and accents. The eyes are incredible, and I adore the stories behind each character that you make. Your videos are like a real life studio ghibili film. ☺️🤍 I can really relate to your perfectionism too. I have gotten straight A’s since elementary school, and this year in one of my final years in high school I finally lost the battle and got a few B and B+ as my final grades. It was really hard, I cried over it and thought I just didn’t try hard enough. And it’s true, I didn’t really study or work super hard on it. But it was odd having that weight of perfection lifted off my shoulders. It wasn’t really relieving, more a “what do I do now? What should I strive for?” Type mindset. I feel lost honestly. 😅 Anyway, I can understand where you’re coming from in that regard. Sometimes I look back at my work and wonder why I didn’t like it too! With my art it’s a hobby, a passion, and in a way my first love. So it’s hard when I don’t do well, I feel like I’ve let “art” down, whatever it is. Like I don’t get to represent this hobby like I do. That was a giant tangent all to say that I love you and your videos, thank you for showing us your work! 💜💜💜

Hello, I am a big fan of your videos. I'm watching them all. Because I am working with Frankie Stein for the first time to make it completely to my taste. It was a Frankie who gave sound and light. So now I am busy with her body and then her face. Where I get a lot of inspiration from you. Thank you very much for your beautiful videos.

[@imip1984]

I always wanted a Lorna but I could never get my hands on one. Also, so wonderful seeing an Australian dolls artist! I’m also Australian and I have collected so so many 2nd hand dolls to customise. Love your unique, beautiful style :)

[@elisabethdens8432]

You are such an amazing artist! This doll (and so many others that you have created) are truly beautiful! I don't know how to put this, but your videos are very calming. It's nice to hear you talk about the little struggles and provide us with some words of wisdom. I also struggle with the classic symptom of "starting a project, not being pleased with it and putting it aside, never to be finished". So hearing that I'm not the only one is comforting. Good job on finishing this doll!

[@gwolfe8828]

seeing you recreate one of your first dolls would be such an inspiration to me and many other people who want to repaint. I always feel hesitant to start out a new thing especially doll repaints because only ever see such talented people like you doing it and it can be a bit daunting, but seeing a doll you did in your early years compared to one you can make now would show us how much we can improve. However it would only be enjoyable to watch if you wanted to do it.

[@Certainvie]

I'm new to your channel(I wandered over because your Colour Demon caught my eye) but I really just want to say I find loud noises absolutely terrifying which keeps me from watching a LOT of youtubers but your voice is very soothing and easy to listen to.

I already have an obscene amount of hobbies, but I did pick up soap making recently haha. I had so many plans for this year regarding selling my work and going to conventions... It all had to get shelved and suddenly I had a ton of free time. I spent a lot of it on doll customizing, which has been really fun. For a long while I was making things mostly to sell, so it was nice to make things for myself for once. I've also been having a lot of fun playing around with more intricate braided hairstyles on my dolls thanks to your videos :)

[@kimberlyallen6582]

I know what you mean about setting things aside for awhile. I pieced a quilt top three years ago during the pandemic and couldn't figure out how to quilt it. I just finished it this week and it is the best quiliting design I have ever done. So glad I waited until both my skill and inspiration was ready . she's beautiful.

I got back into doll customizing and collecting. I actually did a partial repaint of a Lorna doll a few months ago and I re-curled her hair which was a first for me!

[@Alixandrite]

I remember a couple videos back you said something about not getting a rerooting tool because of their availability in Australia. Idk if you have found a place to purchase them yet but I have an alternative. The doll artist Dollightful didn't have a proper rerooting tool when she first started so instead she used and needle with its eye cut in half combined with some sort of drill bit handle. I recommend looking at her old videos to see if its something you want to make.

[@Kiputytto_minis]

At first I was a little disappointed when you said you weren't going to be making clothes but as I watched you accentuate the body mold I could see why you chose not to. She's gorgeous and I'm glad you came back to her. I hope you have more shelved dolls you'll feel up to sharing with us.

[@martinamendezfernandez]

Lorna McNessie was the first Monster High Doll that I got ever (she was for sale in a little shop, in my hometown) and I also decided to left her body as it is and just enhance it. It was my first try at custom, so I should probably try to fix the inmense amount of mistakes that I made, cause I love her mold. You are very inspiring to me. Watching your videos help me deal with my anxiety disorder and makes me want to create things, dolls in particular. Thank you so much for that. I love your channel and your videos. Sincerelly.

I love this channel so much. You are such amazing artist and I really look up to you. Every face up is so beautiful and unique, and I hope someday I can paint like that too. Sometimes it's hard to get caught in a perfectionist mindset, and the reason its so damaging is because we are human, incapable of perfection. Sometimes we all have unrealistic standards for ourselves, but we are human, messy, flawed and beautiful just the same. I'm glad that you picked this project back up, because she is stunning.
