Let's Show our Work, or WIP!

So, I rooted for about 7 hours straight today, forgot to eat anything during that time and my back hurts from sitting bend over but I finally finished two heads that I’ve been putting off for a long time.
Only got one rooting needle left and it’s horribly bent.

My last needle that bent lasted 2 heads… I threw it out knowing it would break soon… next new needle broke within 10 mins. I was sooo mad. lol

I just noticed you use a Donut pillow! :wink:

I broke like 5 needles today. This one probably won’t last long, haha.
Yep, I ordered the pillow from China because I thought it looked fun. Then when it arrived I realized it was perfect for rooting! :wink:

I’m trying to find good lighting. My babies keep getting wash off on pictures. I’ll have to move around the house tomorrow. I can’t wait for spring sun. This is with and without flash. Her color is in between in real life :neutral_face:

I LOVE this little lamb! I aspire to your level of hair painting-not there yet. Not even close.

That’s too sweet. Thanks!:hugs: I found that it’s all about the paint consistency. I use short brushes. I tried the recommended thin long brushes, but that didn’t work for me. I cut short brushes in an angle.

I’m going to try that because that hair is amazing!

Well it’s safe to say that my poor Olive is a boo boo baby. She is either too orange or green. Used genesis paints. Her hair is much more brown in person thankfully and for my first time painting hair I’m kind of happy with it but not the colors it has turned out to be. She’s a keeper :slight_smile:

I should have left her bald.

Naw, she looks pretty good for a first attempt. My first attempt looked like a hat. Yours looks like hair. I have a Juan leg (huge) I’ve been practicing on. Then I strip and reuse it.
She’s cute. Will you give her eyelashes?
