Hurrah, SOMETHING.
I actually found some dolls to paint last night when I was out! I picked up a SS Abbey, an SS Lagoona, and an SS Gil. I still have a Spectra to paint (though she’s harder for me), so I think I’ll strip everyone tonight and start painting tomorrow.
I’m also thinking that tonight I might start sculpting a replacement torso for the CAM girls… I disagree with recasting the...
