Funny Bone

My Monster High Create-A-Monster skeleton! Mattel made a skeleton doll, guys.

So, I've actually been wanting to paint a monochrome Calavera, but assumed it's be a Blythe with bright hair. I started this gal out in full color, but immediately thought it too much. I wanted her to look less "painted" and more like a pretty, almost lacy skeleton. Then she got a top hat and some sass. I love her. I think I'm going to paint her spine shoes a bit and make her a cigarette holder...

WOWZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! she's fucken amazing!!!!

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I am endlessly charmed by the idea of a skeleton fashion doll. You have to see her shoes!

[resin-angels.livejournal.com]

OMG! She is awesome!! I am on such a MH custom high at the moment! I can't get enough!!! Do you think you'll ever take commissions for Monster High Calaveras?

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

Thanks!! I would if someone had a spot and chose to send me one. :) I'm totally addicted to them too.

That look would great also with the one that is partially clear...as you can tell I'm not into MH but I will admit to getting one for a special reason. Of course there was hair cutting and other stuff that happened after that. But I think the color palette is very cool for this doll!

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Yes, I have her too and I have plans. :) I considered painting her fleshy parts white, but then I thought it more appropriate that they be a different color than the bone, that partially inspired her face paint too.
A special reason sounds exciting!

[loli-cat.livejournal.com]

Okay, that does it! I've resisted MH all this time but (swooon...)

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

Beware! They are addicting!

[loli-cat.livejournal.com]

Oh BAH, I was at Wal_art and they had the create-a-monster accessories but not the basic doll. The package they DID had contained the head & skeleton arms & legs but I suspect the latter would not work in any barbie or even regular MH doll, would it? The attachment is quite different from any Barbie I've dismembered and I'm supposing Matel used the same basic structure for MH dolls, right?? If I could have ANY possible combination, it would be interesting to see how the three-eyed head would look with skeletal arms & legs. Oh and btw, the afformentioned package came with a dress and AWESOME high-heeled shoes, the heels being like backbones!! ^_^

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

Yup, you need one of the 2 larger packs to get a torso. The larger sets each come with parts for 2 different characters, but one torso. The add on packs come with lower limbs, a head, wig and outfit. The torso in these pictures is from the Werewolf/dragon set. People have gotten the add on parts to work with regular MH dolls, but it takes some modding and seems difficult for the legs especially.

I know, I love the shoes!! They actually are harder to appreciate on the skeleton feet, so I may paint on some detail. I love the dress too -- and it hides all of the torso if you want a more complete "skeleton."

Gasp. Such delicate beauty.

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. ♥ That is exactly what I was hoping for.

[moon-custafer.livejournal.com]

I'd heard of the MH dolls but not their Create-a-Monster line - I like the idea, sort of like combining fashion dolls with Stikfas.

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

I like the idea very much too -- especially for girls! They seem to be continuing the line with even more optional parts, tails, wings and such. There is a lack of torsos, but some hobbyists are already casting their own to fill the need.

Beeyotiful! She's terrific on her own but the top hat really adds some extra sass to her.

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

Thanks! What's funny is that I wiped her then dressed her like this so I think it influenced my choices because I loved the hat on her so much.

(I meant to write this yesterday and forgot... did you get my e-mail? I wrote to you last week but have been having trouble with GMail. I am sorry to bother you when you're super-busy...)

[kittytoes.livejournal.com]

Ack! Yes!! I asked Mat for his opinion before I responded and then forgot to respond! Off to now.

[pumabaerchen.livejournal.com]

Oh she is amazing! :)
I love her face and the skeleton parts are so cool!

[windsinger.livejournal.com]

I... oh my god. D8 I have a MH skeleton girl that's just been sitting around naked in her high heels... I can't bribe you with upfront payment or something to put me on the waitlist can I
