I'm avoiding cleaning the house right now so I thought I'd sit down and work on some of my Munny's when I realized I'm a very strange person. Shocking, I know right?
When I get frustrated while working on something it's like I have an "off" switch. I finally get to a breaking point and realize I just don't like a certain area, my emotion shuts off and I white wash it (or black wash, or brown...whichever) and start on some totally random angle.
I had plans for one of my Munny girls to be wearing a teddy bear jacket with fur trim. The trim around her hood came out nice, the trim on the sleeves was good, but then there was the trim going from the collar to the bottom of the coat. My brain kept telling me she had chest hair.
My "off" switch was flicked, and before I knew what I was doing I mixed gold with black (odd combo...) and completely painted over the fur trim to give her some huge Victorian style ruffles. And you know what? I LIKE it! I gave her some lighter black/gold gloves and pants to match, and now I'm quite happy with it :D It's all a very strange looking combination, and nothing compared to what I originally had in mind, but I like it :D
Photos will come once the finishing touches are added and she's glazed.
