G3 Gingerbread for Gingerbread

[Uftaki]

Some of you have probably already seen this from the 2021 Halloween Swap brag thread... but here are my photos I took of the custom G3 Gingerbread I made for Gingerbread.

No in-progress photos, sorry. I had a lot of fun working with her, though. How I did the twinkle eyes, is I actually carefully carved out the iris part of the eye, then glued the twinkle-eyes into place. The symbols were hand-painted in acrylic, and the hair was from dollyhair.

I'm finding I'm really having fun, doing these twinkle-eye customs. No idea which or what I'll tackle next, though. It's likely going to be a while before I can do any customizing again, anyway.

You did such a wonderful job with her. I also love how “flush” you got her eyes set in. What did you end up using for her eyes?

@Skybreeze : Thank you! I'm not sure what they're called, exactly. I got them at Michaels. They're these faceted sequin-like things. One bag I have calls them "rhinestones" (fake plastic, of course). Some you can get with little holes for sewing, others can be stickers, but these are just solid plastic.

something similar to this

Well, you know I think she's just fabulous
