Those are my daughters favourite colours. I have twins so I dress them in similar outfits and they always want pink and purple or blue if they don't have either. Thanks for sharing it looks wonderful. Thanks littlepetcrazy! They are my favorite colors as well! When I was in high school and my mom took me clothes shopping, she always said, "Can't you find clothes in any other color than pink?!!" lol! Anyway - thanks for your comments! Have a great day! Judy

Judy, i have a suggestion for you! From customizer to customizer, if you water down your paint some before you paint the top coat, you wont have the brush strokes. It does take a little more painting, but you get an even look! I water mine down and brush a coat on, blow dry it and do it over about 3-4 more times. The last coat i really water down the paint and just brush a thin layer over it. It really helps even out the strokes. it took me a while to figure that one out! But it makes it look so smooth! Hope that helps.......

Hope that helps....... Thanks for the info sevenbelles! But, believe it or not, I make some of my custom pets that way on purpose. I do use the technique you are talking about on some of my pets though. I use it also on the eyes and some other parts of their bodies. For example, here are some I have done using the technique you are talking about:Here are some that I used the 3-coats of paint technique:
I sure there are some people out there who don't like it, but I think it makes my pets look kind-of different and definately original. I think the 3-coat process adds depth do them and on some of them, it makes it look like fur. The pix on this forum are also waaaaaay up close. In person, the little flaws, etc. are not near as noticeable as they are in the pix. It's so hard to take pictures of these little boogers! Anyway - thanks for the info! Have a great evening! Judy
