New Mistress & Portia Redux! *pics*

I’m always inspired by my good friend Nat over at Milkshake Melody.     We’ve had  joint photostories & characters whose pasts & futures & families are intertwined and related in some way. We were talking a few weeks back about how one of her characters, Inessa, only has her somewhat stuffy & more conservative sister Yseult to visit when she comes to Quinlan (and for photostories). I’d give you a link to Inessa’s profile w/ an updated pic but Nat is updating them so she isn’t up w/ a new pic yet.

With that in mind she’s encouraged me to make a Mistress for my cast of characters.  I have yet to determine what if anything she does for a job– might make her a lawyer since Inessa is one and that could be one more way that they’re contemporaries. Maybe.     Anyway, here’s the mistress. You can’t tell from the photos but her eyes are actually blue with aqua/ cerulean

Her pet?

A bit more info about her: (she needs a name)

• Volks Neo head
• She is on a volks excellent E type body
• I rooted her with a mix of NDR hair that I had (some dishwater blonde, Wheat,  and maybe off white?) that I bought years ago.  Nat suggested going the blonde route since she has a previous Mistress doll I made (back when I pretty much only did barbies) and wanted to see a version of her made.

So gave it  a try, though it’s a long time later and the details are kind of hazy to me. I recall she had long, blond hair that had curls/waves, a big chest (I’d experimented–I forget it it was paper clay or milliput I’d used) and a little black plether outfit. LOL That’s about all I remember.

Ok, and you remember that yesterday I tried painting Portia? And how I’d misplaced where her eyes were and in general she had personality but looked a bit “off”. I wiped her & Raven’s faces last night & I gave another shot at painting Portia.  Not a radical difference, but…?

Any better?

As always, comments welcome!
