      Took Puff out for photos the other day~ she's been very neglected so I let her try on a new outfit that was intended for another doll, it makes her look like a character from an old Atelier game imo 🌱

      For sanding, Argofile ART120 (like this). It has many separate heads, and one is a fine-grit sandpaper head. One of the requirements to perfecting Gaianotes putty is sanding; lots and lots of sanding, so a router is a huge recommendation. Other than airbrushing wigs, my customizer of a partner @rudebuster doesn't have much experience with it, but she does recommend Pan Pastels. They're very pigmented, and you don't need to layer them. They have several different sets with varying colors, but for dolls, @rudebuster's personal recommendation is the Portrait Set. @rudebuster also recommends mixing colors together for depth; her method is to scrape a little bit of what colors you need into a small container until you get a shade you like. Finally, for any lines, if you're not confident with paint, @rudebuster recommends Caran D'Ache Museum Aquarelle watercolor pencils. They're the most expensive of the Caran D'Ache, but totally worth it. It would be the most like paint.

      I know I commented a long while ago (sooooooooooooo busy with university and it's been hell on Earth, with that damn 7000-word essay), but I have additional information from my partner, @rudebuster, who has been dabbling in serious customization! Well, okay, she admits most of her information comes from Tsutomu Ch. Doll Master Tsutomu's YouTube channel. He also has better tips on using Mr. Super Clear, and better tips about securing wigs (using non-slip liquid, like what you'd put on socks). She says it's been a big, big help for her. Strive to learn, and learn to strive! Edit: I also previously recommended the Caran D'Ache Supracolor Soft, but @rudebuster says Caran D'Ache Museum Aquarelle. They're the priciest of the Caran D'Ache, but you get the best quality. Trust me, if you're going to work with watercolor pencils instead of paint, that'll give you the closest match. It'd be worth it.
