Shopping 1/6 Scale Anime or Semi-Realistic Faceup Artists?

May 6, 2022

    1. Hi there,

      I've purchased a blank 1/6 scale Doll Zone Black Cat. She hasn't shipped yet, but I wanted to put out feelers. EDIT: I'm also planning on purchasing an Isla Dolls Kiwi or Blueberry, which are also 1/6 scale, and would eventually want a faceup for her.

      I was wondering if anyone knew of Faceup Artists that do Anime or Semi-Realistic makeup for 1/6 scale dolls. And if they can do mods (like widen the eyes a tad) that'd be even better.

      I've been looking around, and can't seem to find anyone that fits what I'm looking for.

      Thanks for any and all help.

    2. There's a good selection of faceup artists advertising their work on the DoA marketplace! It looks like you don't have access yet, but if you keep participating in discussion on the forum, you'll be able to apply for it in no time. :3nodding: I've found the faceup artists I've worked with exclusively through the marketplace because I don't know how to search anywhere else, haha. There's a lot of people to choose from, all with their own styles!

      You could also try browsing doll profiles here on DoA; there's a section for faceup artist credit in each of them. If you see a doll with a faceup you like, you can look up that artist and see if they're taking commissions.

      It'll take a minute for your doll to ship, so there will be plenty of time to find just the right person!

    3. You could try looking up artists that usually do Dollfie Dream faceups.

      Not sure if they are willing to work with resin dolls, but I remember seeing some Dollfie Dream faceup artists on Instagram branching out recently and working on resin anime-style dolls like Puyoodoll and Imomodoll as well. Puyoodoll and Imomodoll are mainly 1/4 size, but I think Imomodoll also makes 1/6 heads.

    4. Thanks for the info! I'll keep lurking and posting, then. I bet I'll have access by the time I get my doll. :3nodding:
