Today I'm going to be painting a lol doll.
I'm doing a little lol surprise makeover for
halloween. I'm thinking about taking one of
these lol dolls and turning it into an old
wicked witch that has a nasty wart on her
pointy nose and wears an adorable little purple
tutu. *yeah, I've still got it* If you're
a huge fan of lol dolls then I just want to
apologize in advance for the torture that
you're about to see. I'll be performing some
*intense* plastic surgery. You know, just
chopping some stuff off here & there & here
& there.. everywhere. Let's uhh see what we've
got here. That's a lot of fine print. What
does that say? This lol doll is nonrefundable
and nontransferable. It is provided as is
and without warranty. Serious side effects
may occur. Yadda yada yada. Company shall
not be liable for injuries inflicted or sustained
including but not limited to lacerations,
evisceration, incineration. Open doll at once
if convenient, if inconvenient, open anyway.
Fair enough. *Why is this weirdo painting
a doll?* Well.. it's because I like taking
cute things and turning them EVIL. That's
kinda the whole point. But I also kinda just
like torturing sparkle butts. Plus NerdECrafter
customized some MLP dolls, which looked amazing.
I'll leave links in the description in case
any of you guys missed it. It really made
me want to try customizing a doll. Those of
you returning to the dark side, welcome back.
I hope in some strange way you've been enjoying
the videos. For those of you new here, you
should consider selling your soul to me by

so that you don't lose me on the internet
forever. I post new videos every Friday. Needless
to say I had a bit of trouble unwrapping it.
If only the directions had been a bit more
clear. Perhaps a zipper or an arrow pointing
to the opening, that would've really helped.
Ah, a poke ball. I do like the packaging,
I think it adds to the charm. This little
pamphlet comes with it that shows all the
dolls you could get. You don't know what you're
gonna get until you open it. This one's the
one I want. I like its goggles. Ok so it looks
like these are all of the ones we could possibly
get. This lol doll comes with a TON of accessories-
a blacklight, a whole encyclopedia of instructions.
Uh I don't think this is gonna be the doll
I wanted, sorry, I'm a bit upset. A baby outfit,
a tiara, and a pacifier. Anddd what is this?
*is this pink lemonade?* I'm actually not
too mad about this, I love me some pink lemonade.
Anyway, it's finally time to open up the doll.
Hahaha.. that's not very decent. I'll just
cover that back up. So here's the doll I got.
She looks.. kinda creepy. Ok so it looks like
we got this one right here, you know, the
one that I didn't want. You can kinda move
its head around.. oh.. never mind. Its head
just fell off. I can fix that. Anyways, here's
the doll all assembled and here it is glowing
under the blacklight. I don't know, I kinda
like it tbh, it's kinda cute. *disgusting*
I think I'm just gonna redo her hair, her
face, her facial features, pretty much everything
*everywhere*. I'm going to start off by removing
her face with some acetone. Nail polish works
sometimes too if you have it, but I don't.
I was given some pure acetone for my birthday
so that's what I'll be using. Acetone helps
remove the paint quicker and easier. Oo that
looks... disturbing. Yikes. Lets all just..
move on from that. When I went on instagram
and asked you guys what you thought I might
turn this doll into a lot of you guys had
some really funny dark, *evil* ideas. Sadly
I won't be doing your mother today. Those
were all great guesses but you're all wrong
*yeah*, nothing that creepy today, just an
ugly old witch. I wanted this lol surprise
makeover be for halloween so I wanted the
lol doll to have a very seasonal vibe. It's
going to be very heavily modified because
it's not quite looking as old or wicked or
ugly as I want it to be. Thankfully this doll
isn't haunted. Though I am slightly disturbed
by your guys' reactions to dealing with a
haunted doll. "Burn. Self enjoyment. as much
as practicality." "Gift it to my enemy. Hey
insert neighbors name here. Sorry I'm so much
prettier than you that it makes you feel bad
about yourself so you hate me, I hope you
accept this gift as an apology. hair flip"
"Kabob that thing". I am low-key, high-key
in the low-key concerned by your responses.
What an interesting bunch you guys are. Anyway
I went in with some scissors and chopped the
pigtail things on the back of her head. Oh
this looks like an absolute mess. *Yikes*
I guess I should probably take this time to
mention that I've never customized a doll
before and I have absolutely no idea what
I'm doing or where I'm going with this. I
wanted to give her a little buzz cut for now.
Don't worry though, I won't leave her bald
forever. Or will I? *hahahahaha* I do plan
on adding some doll hair at the end, I just
wasn't in love with the whole pigtail thing.
So now that I have the base ready I'm just
going to add some witchy details to better
fit the look I'm going for. First I sculpted
the shirt out of apoxie sculpt. Just going
for a simple black shirt with short sleeves.
I was going to add a necklace and some detail
but it was looking a little weird so I decided
to take that off and just leave a basic black
shirt. Apoxie sculpt comes in 2 parts that
you just mix together to activate. It gets
hard as a rock in about 2 hours & there's
a nice little window of time, about 20 minutes,
where you can bend stuff and move it around
to where you like it without returning to
putty form. That's when I like working with
the stuff. The doll had some white strappy
shoes before which wouldn't really work with
my witch theme going on so I decided to ditch
those and sculpt some new black booties for
her out of apoxie. *itty bitty booties* I
wanted to give my witch one of those ugly
pointy noses with a wart on it. My girlfriend
insisted that the witch have a pointy nose.
I don't know, I guess she's into some weird
stuff. Then I sculpted the hat. I wanted to
make more of a Harry Potter style witch hat
kinda like how the sorting hat looks except
I'm going to keep it the classic black color.
After the nose I sculpted some eyebrow ridges
to make her look like an old hag. I'm going
for the whole evil grandma vibe. I'm also
going to shape up a little accessory. I just
took a chunk of apoxie and molded it into
a bucket for her. I'm gonna turn it into one
of those jack-o-lantern buckets that kids
hold on halloween. I did realize that since
I'm turning her into a grandma she's a bit
too old to go trick or treating. I'll admit,
it's slightly weird.. I guess. It doesn't
really make sense but then again, nothing
ever does. To complete her outfit I wanted
to give her a purple tutu. I had a hard time
with that. Nope, this is not working. In the
end I twisted the rubber band in half and
then I tied the tulle ribbon in knots around
it. I tied normal knots instead of slip knots
because I don't know, I guess the slip knots
were just too confusing for me. After that
I just went in with a scissor and cut around
the tutu to make it shorter. Now that the
doll is finally in the shape that I want it
to be I'm going to start working on the paint
job. I kept it mostly purple and *black* because
those are some of my favorite colors. I painted
the witches hat black and I painted her bucket
into a pumpkin. Next I painted the shirt and
boots *black* to match with her hat. I did
end up giving her purple and *black* striped
tights as well. You starting to notice a trend
here? I really love the goblin looking witches
that have green skin. I didn't really have
the right shade of green that I wanted so
I just mixed some white with the green to
get the right color. I then painted her face
and arms green. After this everything started
going downhill. I wanted to give her some
purple eyes to match her whole look but they
ended up being really textured. It looked
like a tragedy so I gouged off her eyeballs.
Sorry if this makes you uncomfortable. I then
repainted them with Posca pens and that actually
worked a whole lot better. I had originally
bought some strands of black hair to complete
her look *but* when I started applying it
it again looked like a tragedy. In fact it
kinda reminded me of Angelica's doll from
the rugrats. I was going for the whole ugly
witch look but this is not what I had in mind.
It was really difficult trying to glue each
individual strand of hair onto the scalp.
I also think using a hot glue gun for this
part was a *bad idea*. Ofcourse I want to
give you guys nightmares but I felt like this
was going a bit too far even for me. So instead
I just ordered some white wefts of hair, which
is basically just hair strands that are stuck
together. I wasn't too worried about the top
of her head because I plan on gluing her witches
hat on top anyway. That's as good as it's
gonna get. Do you like it? Hopefully you do
because it's kinda too late now. *trick or
