    Dinah Mite re-root and re-paint

    Just getting started. Going with black hair on this one. I brought her hairline down a bit in the front and evened it out.

      Progress from last night. I may bring her hairline down one more row but I'll wait to see what it looks like. I want her to blend with the other Dinah's in my collection so not sure how far I will take it.

        Very nice. I like it. What color are you going to make the eyes?

        How about a nice hazel or amber color?

          I was actually thinking hazel! So many of the original, and newer female figures, have the same blue eyes. Time to change it up!

            That's the ONE beef I have about the new female heads, is that they ALL have the same freaking eye color!

            I think hazel would be a nice change. Or violet-grey like Elizabeth Taylor's. That was one of the things I envied about her was her eye color.

            Just don't make the lips a boring color; a nice mulberry color would really make her lips pop.

              And here is Dinah with a new 'do and face paint, ready to join the rest of my displayed figures.
