As you know Lins nipples are outrageous looking.

Reikos niples are naturally like that. So i used less flocking/powder makeup. Same amount of rtv 4500 silicone and doubled up on mineral spirits. Mixed it real good. And it came out translucent. Thinned out to the extreme your work time goes up to thirty minutes unfortunately so does your dry time. Lol it went from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
Now for the pics.

: Before you ask i split her mouth open.
No oral except kissing. I paint inside her mouth later.; 20160428_040802.jpg (1.76 MiB) Viewed 3298 times

Same color on her nipples. Only difference is i used talc( do not breathe it in while dusting over the dolls nipples.
I exhale dust on the nipples than mask up and walk away) to matte down the paint before it "sets". This way her nipples will be shine free.

Well, I am sorry, but I will now ask - what did you do/how exactly did you get from that closed mouth to this open one?

And how do you keep it open - and did you / will you fill it with teeth / tongue or whatnot ... and ... I am in awe - please do tell.

Kind regards.

Used an exacto knife. Cut upward on an angle into her mouth. Not much room in there either maybe an inch and a half. Not enough room for a tongue

I just want to make sure i mention something.
Always put the powder first. If you do it any other way you will get bubbles in the paint.
Powder,silicone, than oms.
This combo is only toxic uncured strongly suggest plenty of ventilation.

This is exactly what I needed to read.

Thanks for the tips Samara, I have a project to look in to and get on with now

And No, its not for Xiaoli as her make up is sealed at the factory.....

Do you mean you blow some talc on to the painted area by holding the talc in your hand then blowing across it to lightly coat the painted area??

Yes i talc her like that then put a mask on and go away. Or i wear the mask. And gently compress the powder bottle til it fluffs out . then run. Lol talc is only good for matting. Make sure the areas you do not wish to be to matted have already finished drying or haven't been started yet

Cheers Samara, Hopefully I can pull this off and not have to worry about make up again after this

Oh you won't have to do it again if prep with acetone. My makeup jobs are still pristine

This is great stuff! Samara, you are the guy I need to be talking to. Is it possible to remove existing color from an area? Like if that color is partially gone already, rather than trying to re-touch it, which will likely never blend. And rather than covering it with a darker color.

One possibility would be just use it, til all the remaining color is gone. But have you found a way to remove factory original silicone paint?

And then the next question. If re-touching nipples, and this paint is actually silicone and better yet, softer than the original material ... it should theoretically be possible to not only make the areola bigger, but to add texture such as a woman has. Any luck with this? Just paint? Or would adding some type of filler material help?

I do like your word choice of 'translucent,' since that is my favorite color of light pink on both a woman's nipples and lips. (Both sets of lips, while we're at it) This lighter color would not cover anything, so removing all of the original color would be essential for such a thing to work.

And if this is possible, the same sort of thing could be done with eyebrows. Almost all dolls come with dark eyebrows, which makes sense; it will go with most wigs. Blonde eyebrows would only work with a blonde wig.
