Decaying Mermaid Process / Monster High Custom Repaint / Patreon Collab

Hello Everyonge!
In today's video I'm sharing the process of making my mermaid for my Patreon Group Collab! The Theme was Undead, so I made a decaying mermaid. I start with a Gigi Grant Monster High doll, and share the process of me merging her with a Skelita body. I also share how I made the mermaid tail, costume and face-up. Stay tuned till the end to see the final photos, as well as the amazing work done by some of my wonderful patrons for this collab!!
Thank you for watching!
