The Frog Fairy - project fated to be a disaster... OOAK doll figurine

[@badluck59]

Once again I must suggest a dragonfly or mosquito fairy! Since they hang around bodies of water, they would be perfect for the summertime water creature theme.

[@kenziewolf3482]

Yes!! I was thinking dragonfly, but a mosquito would be an awesome idea too!!

[@c.i.ponies5332]

I'm definitely into the mosquito idea.

[@benoitlaforest-ardel8312]

I feel like Mosquito would be an amazing idea!

[@Purple_Dragonfly2002]

I think a Dragonfly fairy would be so cool!

[@furlizard]

Ooh, I would love to see what you do with a mosquito fairy!

[@Camsalz]

The bubbles make the project look more real often times small bubbles form on plants and other things in water. This happened a lot in our fish tank. I wouldn't worry about them. However if they really bother you next time tap the sides a little harder and for a longer time. You show such attention to details on both the doll and the stands. Great work. I think she looks fantastic.

[@icychickennugg2204]

Don't fear making it look weird, it only makes your fairy look real. It's always a joy to see your creativity when it comes to concepts like this!! I can't wait until your next doll!! 😁👍

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Thank you! There's more from where it came from! :)

[@icychickennugg2204]

@@CatmeleonStudio I'm so excited 😊!!

[@benoitlaforest-ardel8312]

“Slap me in the ass and call me a donkey” Girl you killed me !! 😂😂 That said I love your work and your art! There are many talented doll artists out there but your style is so unique and not what we would normally expect, I LOVE it! 💚

[@CatmeleonStudio]

:D Thank you so much!

[@staceydeller2881]

I totally agree, I look forward to every one of your videos, just wish they where more frequent, but understand that life and bills get in the way of creativity. Please keep creating your unique fairies, I love each and every one of them and you too!

[@katrina_99]

I never heard of that expression but now I want to use it all the time

[@MoteMayhaps]

I love fairies that aren't "beautiful" in a classical sense. The Frog Fairy is a wonderful mix of odd, cute, and intimidating!

[@kikilin1993]

I absolutely loves frogs and fairies. She is so CUTE!!!!

[@KaypeaCreations]

I love all the shading and details in this piece specially the 3D effect with the uv resin! Perfect accident 🥰 that tongue is everything haha

[@firegodessreiko]

I think she's so cute!!! 'Normal' is overrated anyway~ I adore her lumps and giant, froggy feet! It's kinda of refreshing to see a custom doll that isn't just a 'glamorous', overly perfect version of the original doll. It's fun to get a little creepy-cute now and then. That's why I love your work, girl! So creative and intricate. You've got big, swingin' artistic balls when it comes to trying new things and like to push the envelope, and I think that makes you very brave and very successful even when you feel like you're failing. I admire that!

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Thank you so much! I like the part about the swinging balls the most XD I will be metaphorically wearing them proudly! :D

[@WeAreSpeakingUp]

Seriously it always blows my mind how talented you are. Every single doll has so much detail and thought into them. I literally look forward to you uploading a new doll. Stunning

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Thank you so much

[@Alt87213]

So beautiful !! Would you ever consider doing a jellyfish fairy ?

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Maybe in the future :)

[@fishd2594]

and she ended up making the jelly

[@Trinity25Apr]

If this is your sculpting skills in development when you consider you've mastered them you will have reached "God" level. I really am enjoying these sculptures and the narration is everything 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Frog Fairy is surreal and weirdly cute 💕 ☺️

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Thank you so much ^_^

[@staceydeller2881]

I love the air bubbles, makes the water look more alive and less static.

[@tyrbauman317]

Something that always blows me away with these makeovers is how beautiful the poses are! They always look so natural and expressive. I love the frog feet, and the resin on the tongue is such a good detail. The wings being small and slightly jagged looks great! I think this is one of my favorite remakes you have done, you did amazing!

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Posing the dolls is one of my favorite parts! ^_^ Because of it I chose doll figurines over articulated dolls :)

[@UltimateGenosyko]

Doll customizers are a different breed, where do they go to master so many techniques, machinery, and artistry, it’s so insane someone can be this talented and skilled in so many things

[@xrjjz]

Omg this is so pretty! I think a arachnid/spider fairy/creature would make such a cool piece. If it’s spider legs from the back or spider legs

[@VondaInWonderland]

I just woke up to a message from my daughter with a link to this video, she said that she's in awe. She plays a frog in a party hat in D&,D. I'm so glad that she's watching your videos. You are such a blessing ♥

[@CatmeleonStudio]

So cool to hear that! ^_^

[@MiriamTV2]

The way you made her legs looks super froggy! I actually don't mind some bubbles in pieces like that, makes them look more alive. Also, a big yes to the fly paint, haha. ;D

[@anonshrimp8299]

I am so glad you made the feet as big as you did. Frogs feet are naturally bigger. So having huge feet just feels right on this frog fairy. I also love the wing concept too with them being there more so for jumping.

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Thanks :) I am very happy to hear that :)

[@lucarubinstein3907]

She's so fun! the resin texturing on her skin is really gorgeous, too. if the bubbles bug you a good thing to do in the future is seal the base with a layer or two of resin before you do the epoxy pour, it'll prevent any trapped air in the base from forming bubbles!

[@CatmeleonStudio]

I was in fact thinking about using a UV resin layer before pouring the epoxy. Mostly because I wasn't sure if the paint or glue won't react with the resin... But I ended up using mode podge that is safe to use with it. The majority of baubles came from the sides, non came from the top surface of the stand. So next time I need to figure out how to make the sides smoother (maybe with a uv resin, yeah) and the tank tighter :)

[@gemmajanes7439]

Just found your channel and I absolutely love frogs and think this girl is beautiful xx

[@marieofthemay6022]

I saw a quote the other day that went something like "its good when you get to the point in a new skill to recognize making mistakes and incompetence. It might be frustrating, but it means you've learned enough to recognize them. When you first start, you don't, and you are unconsciously incompetent, and when you're conscious of your incompetence, that's when growth happens, because you recognize your mistakes enough to fix them." you reminded me of that when you were talking about working on your sculpting skills. You're already 100x more skilled in sculpting than I am, and I'm always impressed , but I also know nothing of scuplting, and you do.

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Thank you so much :) There is just so much to learn and so many ways to progress :) And that, in fact, makes me even more excited ^_^

[@JazzyKazoo]

5:00 i cant stop laughing at how happy the doll looks at this part, just looks like shes going :D. I love how the doll turned out and that you always create such unique and original customs. I bet no one else has a frog fairy doll!

[@icedchocolatemadoka1577]

I like frogs. Interesting animals.

[@burbundodula9117]

I couldn’t wait for this one. I’ve been watching your other videos on repeat. You are amazing! ❤️❤️❤️

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Thank you 💚

[@zippymacadoo6336]

Remember, mistakes are how we learn. Don't psych yourself out by overthinking. She turned out terrific!

[@stefankroik1083]

I think the bubbles in the water should be seen as a happy accident, makes the base look more alive 😍

LOL......I Love Frogs! 🐸 I think that she turned out BEAUTIFUL! You are an Extremely Talented Lady! I would buy this for myself......the Fly! Her feet! (Her head kinda looks like "Jim Carrey" from the "Mask"! 😂 But......Bald is Beautiful! 👍 The Cattail turned out Fabulous! You're Very Creative! I just found your channel I was curious about why your Fairies didn't have any Clothes on them.....the Snow-fairy and the pumpkin-fairy and the Frog fairy are a few that I have watched.... looking forward to seeing more of your Art Creations! 🤗 Fatfroglady from The USA.....🐸👍

[@smiklosovic8971]

I'd love to see more frog fairys! they come in so many colors and patterns that you could get pretty creative! or something like a toad/lizard with a lot of interesting texture!

[@CV3nus]

Agh! I LOVE frogs 🐸 they are my favorite animal! This sculpture is so cool and interesting. I love that you are experimenting in your projects, it makes them all unique while still showing your style. Also the bubbles in the resin make sense for this scene because there are always random bubbles coming from lake beds. I also like that the feet were that size, functionally it makes sense that she would have large grippy feet to grab surfaces and to swim well to get around and keep her hands free. Love your work. Great job!

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Experimenting and learning new techniques is the most fun part in crafting hobbies! :)

[@PrincessHeathaB]

One of my favorites, so creative and unique.

[@drewdempsey6523]

You may not have swamps where you live. But there are always bubbles coming up from the bed of the swamp, due to decomposition. So the bubbles in your stand make it look more realistic.

[@alycechattin9367]

I love how you always show when an idea doesn't work, how you try to work around it, and how you move on when you're not happy. You don't settle for things being so-so, your attention to detail is truely inspirational 😊 I love how she turned out!

[@PIXIENATORY]

I only saw thumbnail, and oh god - my freaking favourite doll of all time XD I like froggies and actually I feel that I have some resemblance with them and now here is this one. Guuurl you smack and killed it. This one soooo hilarious. 💕

Incredible job on the mods! She’s amazing and I actually love the effect the resin bubbles give ❤❤❤

[@lalareeves1941]

I think this is definitely one of my favorites! I love the detail with her hanging onto the cattail. Also the blue water from resin to make it as if she's on a pond. The bubbles even made it look more realistic as well. After all, water does have bubbles in it too. Lol

[@c.i.ponies5332]

This is freaking amazing. Such a cool idea. Love love love it. The stand is exceptional and the bubbles works. I mean there are bubbles in water. Personally I wouldn't use the last layer of glue on the flock, for me it take to much of the fluffyness away.

[@CatmeleonStudio]

Thank you for the comment! I'm so happy you like her :) I was thinking hard about the flock, to cover it or not... It just didn't look that nice (the flock was a little bit to chunky), so the layer of glue made it look a little bit more even.

[@c.i.ponies5332]

@@CatmeleonStudio that makes a lot of sense. In the end it's also about personal opinions and it's your work so you should do what you like

[@c.i.ponies5332]

I hate mosquitoes too and wasp and yet I freaking love the wasp fairy. I just vision a very thin and pointy looking stick doll with a long nose and a blood. In your style it would be epic.

[@CatmeleonStudio]

@@c.i.ponies5332 I will definitely think about that more :) I would lie if I would say that I haven't thought about it already :)

I did not expect this custom at all. zdecydowanie zmiotła mnie z planszy

for all of marzenas english only speaking subscribers - "zmiotła mnie z planszy" roughly translates to "knocked me off the board" but funnier

[@brianahawkins8124]

Oh my gosh she's Adorable!!!! I'll call her Rain the Frog Fairy born in the farthest side of the rain forest filled with cattails, lily-pads with waterlily's from a very special spot in that enormous pond you've ever seen. On that very Summer year in the farthest corner of a magical rainforest an enormous pond filled with cattails, flowers like water lilies and lotus, & lilypads that very pond is where all the frog fairies are born & one very special frog fairy born from a beautiful pink & white water lily was Rain, now Rain was not like any other Frog Fairy she had the gift of not just jumping so high for speed she had healing powers to restore all the lake's & river's through out the rainforest from any pollution, restoring the tree's health from cut falling timber. She could restore all the rainforest glorious formal beauty, I hope you love this story. :) I wonder if there will be a Water Lily Fairy, Dragonfly Fairy, see you next time Catmeleon Studio. :D
