The doll is beautiful, but u really need to work on mermaids tails. The clay is entirely too thick and makes her look deformed. It’s not a smooth transition from upper to lower half.
OMG THAT IS SUPER COOL AND AWESOME AND BEAUTIFUL 1000000000X PLEASE CAN YOU NEXT PLEASE HANSEL AND GRETEL DOLLS PRETTY PLEEEEEEEEEEASE THAT'S VERY COOL FOR YOU ❤❤❤😊😊😊
I didn't like the tail. Look sooooo big for this tiny body and weird at the same time. Please next time try to make normal tail with normal shape or maybe even material tail. Also Lagoona's tail was bad tho they look like a vase
This doll is absolutely STUNNING! The face is so ethereal and the shining tail is so pretty. The doll really looks like Halle too. I personally prefer your doll over Disney's.
Beautiful as always! I think you did Halle Bailey justice! Would love to see you do a Princess Peach doll based on the new Mario movie. It would be interesting to see how video game princesses would translate into your doll style :)
I wanted to tell you that you've inspired me to try costuming dolls! I know it wont be great since I don't have the correct supplies and all but still, I'll try and will be happy if the poor doll has at least something resembling eyes again haha
I think Poppen just likes her mermaids to have big hips lol. I've noticed it too. She always adds padding to the hips, I assume to make a more defined difference between the hips and the tiny waist. Seems to be a personal preference.
It is a big peeve of mine that the tails never seem to fit right. It just spoils the whole effect to me but that's my personal opinion. Hope everyone is doing well
Yes I have to say I agree completely. I love Poppen’s videos but the hips are always too wide on her mermaids and the tail is too long as well. It ends up looking like a regular girl sitting inside a fake tail, almost like she’s popping out of a cake at a surprise party 🎂
Her face is sooooo super gorgeous!! Idk how you made her fave so good so stunning, you are truly an artist! And the dreads how you solved it is so creative, her hair looks very very pretty and good!! Also i loved loved loved the glitters in all the colors and the fin design with gold. The tail shape and size is much better than your previous mermaid dolls but i still hope next time it could be smaller and more smooth but the end result still looks really good and i love the doll!!❤
amazing transformation as always! I really love seeing how much progress you’ve made when remaking black characters over the years. It shows how important it is to you to get all the details right.
She's quite lovely - just a couple of things that could make her perfect, mostly to do with the tail. Why is the apoxie sculp applied so thickly at her hips? It's difficult to see her as youthful when her hips are so matronly. Could a thinner layer be applied to prevent that? And why is the the tail always so long? The fins should be right at the end of where her legs and feet would be (if she had them). She looks like she's part eel with the length they have here. Other than those two things, I think she's beautiful.
Who's to say what a mermaid "should" look like? They aren't real. Haha! What if a "real mermaid" was a fish on the top half and had human legs on the bottom half? 🤔 😂
Thanks to you some time ago, I've ordered Apoxie sculpt several times already and LOVE working with it so much. It doesn't shrink, doesn't need to be 'cooked' in an oven, you can sand, paint, drill it. Love this stuff and it's perfect for the art I do and it sticks to anything.
You made her hair, tail and top so much more vibrant than Disney did, your doll is so much better than what they did for her. Though I will say, and this is just my opinion but I think you made the hips of the tail a bit too big compared to the rest of the body.
Yeah, bigger hips are one thing but she always makes her tails huge and out of place. Also I don't know why Disney keeps making their movies so destaturated looking...
The hair turned out amazing and her face is gorgeous, as always. As a long time fan I would like to see you refine your mermaid technique, though. Her "hips" are enormous compared to her waist and the tails are always in that same position and very long compared to their torsos. I think removing the entire legs, not just above the knees, and building the whole lower body from scratch would work much better, and you should experiment with some different positions, or even just straight down like a classic mermaid doll, and simply use doll stands with them. You're always leveling up and improving your skills and I KNOW you can take these ones to a whole new level!
Your artistic work is always fabulous. Face transformations are perhaps the best on TH-cam not to mention your attention to details! Sterling work indeed! I think you only have one weakness and that is in making mermaid tails. They look too…bulky, especially around the hips. I always imagine them to have slim, graceful tails. Just my humble opinion
You can always use aluminum foil to bulk up an area so you don't have to use as much of the apoxy sculpt. It'll stop the doll from being overly heavy if that's ever a concern too.
Incredible transformation as ALWAYS!! I'm curious, do you keep the ears/other extra bits you take off from the dolls every now and again? If so, have you ever thought about making a doll with many of those extras? Four ears, many fins, etc?
Hello Marina, I absolutely love both your talent and your personality. You are very solar 🥰 Your dolls are so beautiful ! However, I think that the tail of your Ariel is too massive. the sparkling effect is everything but if the tail had been slimer, it would have been absolutely perfect 💙 You are one of my favorite TH-cam channel and I'm so happy when Friday comes 💖💖💖
The doll is beautiful but the mermaid body is more skinny the hips is so bulky than the mermaid body of the movie for all the others parts is so beauty and well done. If the part of hips corrected to slender one its perfect. 😊
Mattel has realised the Movie Arielle Doll. Her Sisters, too. It would be cool if you make the Mattel Arielle in your realistic Style. I'm honest, I love your Dolls and your Work. You are amazingly talented but all your Mermaid Tails are very big. For me a little to big for the skinny Body of a Monster High Doll. Many Artists used the original Legs as Base. For an example @MariaLazar. Her Tails are adorable and so beautiful.
Finaly someone not so sceptical about new movie! Ariel is my alltime favorite princess. And I like to focus on good sides of every movie in general, not to be critical. And I love dread locks, I have them myself...
People dont realise this movie doesnt replase the old one.. they can still watch the old one if they dont wanna watch the new one.. the old one isnt being banned or something
Love the tail. Your progressing do well with them getting them skinnier. For using clays you might want to look into other forms of air dry clay. Dolllighful has done several experiments using aur dry claw and it seems to work well for bulk stuff
5 years ago I saw the first repaint of Ariel in a blue dress. I've been following your channel since that day, I'm a big fan of your art and how much you've improved. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. I love you ❤
oh my god, i used to watch your videos so much when i was younger and i finally found your channel again!! love the content and keep up the amazing work :)
All that glitter is giving me inspiration to customize my Converse with all that glitter. I'd probably have to do it outside as well as put them on and off - outside...
She is gorgeous. I do agree with the girl that minute that I wish the proportions were a little better cuz it seems the bottom half is really large. I thought you were going to sand it down. But the tail and the hair wow Simply Beautiful.
Ohh Where is her beauty mark above her eye brow 😢, and I noticed that all of the mermaids you customize their tails are so big compared to thier tiny body , but other than this its perfect ❤️
My 7 year old daughter has become OBSESSED with the Monster High Movie from Nickelodeon and I always think of you whenever I see Frankie or a Draculara etc on screen 😊
I love your doll transformations!!! Do you plan on getting the actual Ariel doll to keep in your collection and to work on later after the movie premieres??
Beautiful as usual ❤ although Id love to see you experiment with a different tail style, I always find them too bulky. I understand it’s so that the doll can stand up though. But maybe you can use a doll stand?
Absolutely stunning! I LOVE all of your creations, but the dolls of color hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talents and work with us! 💚💚
The doll looks brilliant very sparkly, I'd be interested in seeing your version of the animated Ariel and seeing them photoshopped together and I'd love to see you use an old Lagoona mermaid doll with her articulated tale so she can go into different poses and look less bulky ❤
She is beautiful 😻 so much glitter, as a “magpie” I’m very happy and impressed 😅. You will indeed find that glitter for years. This was definitely one of your better mermaid tails, it appears less bulky
You have probably answered this already in your videos. I’ve watched many of them and can’t recall why you sometimes glue the hair and other times you insert in the head. Thank you for all the wonderful videos!!
Nailed it! Such an incredible job. I love the tail. Just the right amount of glitter, which is pretty much all the glitter. LOL I'm actually holding out hope that you might do a Selena doll. She was one of the first Latina icon for us that really incorporated cool fashion trends. The top you made for Ariel just reminded me that it would be something Selena would wear. 😎👍

You could make a Barbie doll of Margot Robbie based on the coming Barbie movie (or Ryan Gosling as Ken?) .. ❤ Love your videos

How you take a wolf and turn it into a beautiful mermaid is absolutely stunning! Not surprised just stunned! Fabulous!
Thank you Cynthia!
So cute!🤩
you'll probably be finding all those glitter around your studio for a year at least... this was soooo sparkly beautiful!!
yep, the house is covered with glitter, it's literally everywhere :D
The tacky/sticky rollers for removing lint and hair from clothes are brilliant to pick up glitter!
This doll is absolutely STUNNING! The face is so ethereal and the shining tail is so pretty. The doll really looks like Halle too. I personally prefer your doll over Disney's.
The fact that you separated all those strands of yarn for her locs BY HAND! 🤯 Your artistry is so inspiring!
Beautiful as always! I think you did Halle Bailey justice! Would love to see you do a Princess Peach doll based on the new Mario movie. It would be interesting to see how video game princesses would translate into your doll style :)

Good luck with your creations and keep at it! Drawing on doll heads is a pretty unique canvas so don't get discouraged.
@@Nightfrog8 thank you so much for your encouraging words!!!
All that glitter makes my magpie heart so happy. Beautiful transformation as always
The glitter technique is everything, well done ❤
Beautiful ! You make Magic with you hands. 🩵🩵🩵✨
She’s so beautiful! Nothing makes me smile more than when you say “not normal” 🥰
You could make a Barbie doll of Margot Robbie based on the coming Barbie movie (or Ryan Gosling as Ken?) .. ❤ Love your videos
So Meta
it’s beautiful! just wish the tail was more proportionate, but i feel like nobody ever gets how streamlined a tail should be hahah
I think Poppen just likes her mermaids to have big hips lol. I've noticed it too. She always adds padding to the hips, I assume to make a more defined difference between the hips and the tiny waist. Seems to be a personal preference.
Same they always look so weird and chunky to me.

Oh yes! I think that kind of tail would look great on the new Clawdeen's body G3 but not on this slim body, it look a little weird to me
Her face is sooooo super gorgeous!! Idk how you made her fave so good so stunning, you are truly an artist! And the dreads how you solved it is so creative, her hair looks very very pretty and good!!
Also i loved loved loved the glitters in all the colors and the fin design with gold. The tail shape and size is much better than your previous mermaid dolls but i still hope next time it could be smaller and more smooth but the end result still looks really good and i love the doll!!❤
Best mermaid tail so far, stunning! Loved the dreadlocks too, it even gives more of an impression of wet hair/being under water
Thank you for doing her so much justice. You did an AMAZING job. I can always count on you to do beautiful work. It really does look like her!
In 1995 I think barbie did a jewel mermaid and I was obsessed with her... This gives me the same vibes... So shiny and jewel toned... Just wonderful
YES i had that mermaid and you’re so right!!! i used to only want barbies for their hair, and i remember hers was soooo flowy and long 😍
My friend borrowed the tail of mine and never gave it back. I'm still salty.

omgg yaasss i was waiting for thisss
Wonderful! Your doll is a million times prettier than the live action character. I especially love the hair it looks looks like ariel's red hair!
Okay, but you picked the PERFECT face mold for this project. The actress already looks exactly like a doll. 😂 I love your interpretation. 😊❤
she's beautiful!!! I really love all the glitter, makes her so shiny ♡ also, great work on the face up, she's so pretty!!!!!

Gorgeous!!!!!

I am for once surprised she didn’t remake that doll but I guess it’s because it already looks decent.
A wonderful repaint!!
Omg!!! Yes!!! You're so amazing! Iv been binging all your videos from now to years ago and I'm just so impressed every single time.
I think it would be cool to make a fabric tail that comes off. Then she could morph back and forth!
Omg I was looking forward for this makeover!! She is gorgeous! Extremely shiny 😍😍 This face mold is perfect for Halle Bailey's face!
You rocked it! ❤
she looks amazing! Love the ombre on her top! :)
Beautiful doll! One thing I would say, though, is that I think the tail is a disproportionate size in relation to the dolls actual body.
Beautiful
Every single video I get so impressed how you make the dolls so similar to the person inspired in, soooo talented! Hugs from brazil ♥️
I watch your videos over and over at night. I am just enthralled honestly!
Beautiful 😍

People dont realise this movie doesnt replase the old one.. they can still watch the old one if they dont wanna watch the new one.. the old one isnt being banned or something
@Frau Nussi because ariels skin color has nothing to do with her character.. shes a fantasy creature.. why does it matter
@@fraunussi her skin is green in the original story.. but no one cared that they made her white for the movie
She is stunning! I love all the sparkle. Beautiful!
Love the tail. Your progressing do well with them getting them skinnier. For using clays you might want to look into other forms of air dry clay. Dolllighful has done several experiments using aur dry claw and it seems to work well for bulk stuff

I'm so excited too and the new Ariel 🎎 doll will beautiful.
When i saw the doll in the thumbnail I thought it looks very much like Rihanna. I would like to see you making a Rihanna doll 😊.
You a artistic master ❤ My beautiful daughter and i love watching you new video.. One thing that you missed is the mole above her eye ..
You had me at “glitter”.
So beautiful.
Your videos make me want to start doing this, i will start with hair, my little girl has some barbies with bad frizzeled hair
My 7 year old daughter has become OBSESSED with the Monster High Movie from Nickelodeon and I always think of you whenever I see Frankie or a Draculara etc on screen 😊
Stunning!!
I love your doll transformations!!! Do you plan on getting the actual Ariel doll to keep in your collection and to work on later after the movie premieres??
OBSESSED 😍 she’s incredible. And so shiny! I love how the tail turned out. Also the hair was gorgeous! Cant wait to see the new movie.
She is exquisite! Absolutely fabulous and beautiful as always, you are so detailed and meticulous, love your channel.
She turned out super cute! I loved the shiny and sparkly tail too 😊 I'm super glad to see a less chunky tail this time❤
The thick mermaid
Beautiful as usual ❤ although Id love to see you experiment with a different tail style, I always find them too bulky. I understand it’s so that the doll can stand up though. But maybe you can use a doll stand?
You should make a Xenomorph Queen but in doll version! 🖤🖤🖤
The thing that’s legendary is your work. It’s always so beautiful and amazing. Your eye work especially
She is absolutely breathtaking ❤
Her face is just beautiful.❤ I love the hair. Her tail is amazing! Wonderful work as always.❤❤
Absolutely stunning! I LOVE all of your creations, but the dolls of color hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talents and work with us! 💚💚
she's gorgeous!
Legend has it you will still be finding glitter in your house until the year 2080 lol
Just amazing!

Wow, you captured her likeness in the faceup! She looks gorgeous!
Love it! Would have like to see her side kick with her and maybe a sea shell clip in her hair. Overall beautiful job!
So pretty and sparkly! I love her!
She is gorgeous! I love how you do the eyes and skin color.
Wow just Gorgeous! So Sparkly and glittery, love the mermaid tail. So Fabulous,
You never cease to amaze me! You are INCREDIBLE!
Amazing as always, I would love for your to make Amalthea from the last unicorn someday
❤❤❤ My favorite Disney princess!
