Barbie Face Up Repaint

This is my 1st attempt to repaint the Barbie for a new photo shoot of Barbie Romance Bridal Collection 2010. Indeed, it is much more difficult than repaint the BJD since the face of Barbie is much much more smaller than BJD face, thus it need lot of patient to paint all the detail. Overall I have spent about 5 hours to finished the 1st repaint. They look really different form the Barbie original factory face up and turn into a high fashion doll. For me, the most exciting moment is when applying extra long lashes as it make them glow!
