Noel Cruz (Noeling) takes celebrity collector dolls and painstakingly repaints them to more resemble the person they portray.
I used a 16-inch Mary Poppins doll here produced by Robert Tonner Doll company - a very nicely made facial sculpt but the facial paint left much to be desired. So, I completely removed factory facial painting and hand painted it to more faithfully replicate Julie Andrews as Mary Poppins. The doll's hair has been extensively restyled to more accurately represent the character's hairstyle from the movie.
His Deviant Art page has many more repainted dolls, some of which are for sale. Link -via Dump Trumpet
This guy is good!
And - having seen my beloved toiling at repainting doll faces - let me just say that Photoshop might be easier but far less rewarding.
A: "I play with dollies".
LOL
Although I have no desire to do so, I do respect the talent going into this.
Finally, a bit of artistry on Neatorama that doesn't involve tons of fruit.
