Introducing Meringue!

Here it is, the proof that I have gone completely bonkers. When it comes to Teenies at least. I always said I wouldn't get any dolls with fantasy parts or in a fantasy colour. Well the colour part went out the window when I got Milki or at least when I got Cotton. With the parts, I know I have the hooves for Other-Nuu but she spends so much time in the box that I don't really count her... But a permanent fantasy-parts-only-doll? Was not my cup of tea. Was. I blame partly my friends for having such gorgeous fantasy dolls and the opportunity they have given me to paint them. I have come to like the look of Soom chubby hooves. But still, most fantasy dolls I see seem to be critters of some sort, the type that look good in a forest setting (like Other-Nuu lol) and I just didn't have any plans for ome of that kind. But then. Then I had the idea that I could make a doll to represent carousel horses, so I could utilise the lovely Bygg/Beyla romantic head I love but had no good character for. And now I have Meringue...

You could see her hooves in the previous post, sorry I couldn't take any full body shots in this session. She's a bit high maintenance with the hooves, since my usual photo spots aren't exactly level. I need to think of something new so I can show her to you in her full glory.



But being a carousel horse, she's more like an automata, machina or cyborg even and for some reason that seemed more appealing to me than a more traditional fantasy creature like a little unicorn.

Also, with an automata background, she might work well with Deary's Turpentine, even with a bit of an overlapping story of some kind. I know Velvet has robotic dolls as well, so maybe we can all link our dolls :)



She still needs blushing to her hands. I also need to reglue her tail magnet inside the torso as it came loose. I have no idea how to do that yet, but I'll figure it out. And she needs her own wig, although this borrowed wig from Hani does suit her very well! I was fretting about her eyes, since I couldn't come to a conclusion on what kind of eyes to get for her, but the seller kindly sent these pink sparkly Soom eyes with her and they seem to work fine for now. But I'm thinking of getting some sort of golden eyes for her eventually. Or Confettis from Dollbakery. But very sparkly Oscar eyes in golden tones would be perfect!
