Dear little doll series…
POLLY
EUGENIA
MUFFIE
VALERIE
TIFFANY
Since this is my first attemp to paint digitaly I thought to share with you that I’m feelng a little weird … huh… correction: I’m feeling very weird. For accuracy, I feel like one of my characters – my eyes are wide open (out of anticipation for what will happen next); my brows draw together and my mouth is stretch horizontally (laughs). It’s like the fist time I did upload my first painting, excactly one year back.
It’s a very big suprise to me. I’d never thought that I will ever paint digitally – really, it just came suddenly before 2 … I don’t quite remember exact maybe 3 nights. Anyway, I felt that I need a “break” from my beloved brushes, paints and canvases. The most imporant, I want to clear my mind a bit from the Halloween series calendar cause I’d hated to make something that it won’t be inspired and absolute authentic from me. So it may be ready far long after Halloween… laughs… maybe it will be ready in Christmas time xxx
Back to that night ➪ Of course I ended up to make my office like a bombed place with charcoals, pastels… Water and ink running below my keyboard and on the floor… just imagine.
The good from all this destruction is a little face I did, a totally scarp face but I did love it from the first moment ♥ (and it looks like me too :) So much that I couldn’t leave it in the mess that was! Here you can see it:
☯ So concluding, all the dollies of this series are based in this little one scrap face, always in the same position but each one of them has a different personality. All the names of the dollies are names from existing famous dolls.
Ok I will stop talking now,
I’m leaving you view my work and I really hope you like it.
Al the best xxx

Scamper Scamper Scamper..looks around… YIPE YIPE YIPE.. tail between my legs chill running up my spine… stops.. looks back.. WOOO HOOO..hehehe
the overall effect is just a wowzer.. all four are just stunning and blend so well.. they are so beautiful.. and even though they all have the basic shape and form they all transfer their own emotion into the viewer… very well done and amazing use of digital painting.. looks like you used charcoal and pastels..very very well done :) (and I favor each one.. :)
ROUBLE RUST replied
Oh my I could ask for more to hear (read). You don’t know how much this means to me. Making more than two with the same position, from the same face it’s getting harder and harder every time to be unique and get another idea and tones… I really still feel weird looking Valerie, I can’t still “see” if it’s actually good enough to be with the others xxx Pretty nervous again for the result again :)
Thank you very much xxx

Love the hair on her! And those big “frightened” eyes… I do like this series. The only tiny issue I have with her are her lips…I was looking at the others and thier lips stand out more than hers does. But everything else is wonderful, I could never do a digital painting like this.
ROUBLE RUST replied
Oh don’t remind me the hair!!! The time that I spent to make the hair (and make the perfect purple) I did to make all the others together! Agree with the lips – they’re too soft and transprent. I wanted to make her more eerie – not so “dark” or “gothic”. Give the feeling of a undead if you get my point – but in dolls mergins. I started them and tried to keep them (hard) gorgeous smudged red/brown but she losing her eerie feel and was looking too beautiful for a “undead feel” I wanted.
Thanks for your view and comment hon, much apprecited xx
midnightdreamer
Awesome, just awesome, the stark emotion in those eyes, excelent work! Love LOVE Love this piece, she is going in my faves for sure! You are rockin’ this series!!!
Peace,
Leah♥
ROUBLE RUST replied
I don’t know what to say – you made me so happy with your words!
Thank you my dear very much! I’m still not sure if I’m gonna do another one for this series – it may be the last.
All the best to you ♥ Mwah x

ZOMBIE RUST
Dear little doll series started out smoothly and it’s getting more and more wild with every new one…
Ace!
ROUBLE RUST replied
Wo, I didn’t expect to have this feedback – she’s the “Kayako” style one. Not that she looks like or that I got inspired from her, but with all these Japanese and familiar horror movies we saw these days I wanted to make her SO much eerie that she would be amlost frightening. Mwwwwwwwwwwwah!
Patricia Anne ...
These are just wonderful!
ROUBLE RUST replied
Thank you so much hon – and for fav them all too :D
Kartoon

ROUBLE RUST replied
Thank you soo much!!!!! Continue below xx
Kartoon
i just read the description of the dollies… and i find them even more unique now! you did such a great job with them, fantastic work!
ROUBLE RUST replied
It was a huge suprise to me (to paint digitally) and it did worked really well. In each of them I had a perfect vision of style of how they’re gonna be so I’m very pleased.
It means a lot you left me your comments, I do appreciate it a lot!
AnitaInverarity
Excellent !!!! She has a great stare- I do love the pale skin with the wild purple hair, so unmistakable a Rouble girl :)))
The series look wayyyyyyyyy cool together xx
ROUBLE RUST replied
You did want a dark one. Right?
heheAgree she got the most of my style generally – she’s too classic for my portofolio :D Thank you honey, it means so much!!!
KimTurner
I love a series, agree with Anita ~ it looks way cool/tres cool… the more I look Eugenia is my fave (I love her expression), but they are all great. =)
ROUBLE RUST replied
WOW, THANK YOU!!!! Oh don’t be afraid to tell – Eugenia is my tatally fav one and I choose this name (from the list of doll names I found) and gave this cause of a old special friend I used to have. She was in this style (and I’m pretty sure she’s like this now too) and I just adore it for many reasons. Totally the style that I love too xx Thank you :))

Thank you sweetie :)))))
Ghelly
I wish they were real dolls, I’d buy them all. =D
ROUBLE RUST replied
Ooh that’s so sweet – really I wish the were real too. I feel so sad I don’t have them “in my hands”, I mean like the traditional paintings. You can hold the canvas in your hands, hanging in your wall… this looks strange. I’ll buy them and frame them all :))
Thank you for viewing my dollies and for your wonderful comments, it means a lot.
amber letham

Taylor Sawyer
Hey Rouble! You know I love your work! It was hard for me to narrow this down to one of the “Doll Series” Pieces…here’s my schpiel:
Hello! Great piece you have here! I’m making a feature banner for the group Oh So Emotional and I was wondering if I can use your piece in it (I would not alter it in any other way than cropping it). I plan to post on the front page of the group all the names of those people that allowed me to use their works in the banner with a link back to their album. Please let me know if you wouldnt mind my using this lovely piece! Thanks!
ROUBLE RUST replied
YES of course :)) and thank you so much for your words and for choosing my work xx I’m thrilled – I saw this group and I said “YAHHH :D”. You’re doing a wonderful work with these groups dear, they are the best. Mwah mwah xx I’ll checking the groups homepage to see it :))
Cheers
Taylor Sawyer
I’m hoping to get the banner done by the first round of Features which should be next Tuesday providing we have enough members. We have over 30 to begin with so its looking good. Now if the others that I messaged to use their works in the banner will get back to me as quick as you did then I can get this done! :-) Thanks for your enthusiasm about the groups! I love doing them and seeing all the great artworks!
ROUBLE RUST replied
I’m sure you’ll have MANY people soon. I just discover the “Bubblers’ Weekly Challenge” too – the hole idea same as the “Colour me a Rainbow” is perfect and cheers to you for working them so good.
Taylor Sawyer
Ooh I changed my mind! Can I use Eugenia instead? I want to use it to represent scared or suspicious! Love these!
ROUBLE RUST replied
Yes of course… to tell you the truth I found it strange you didn’t ask for her in first place :D
Taylor Sawyer
At first I was thinking “Scary” instead of “Scared” but then I thought about it a little longer and decided that was more an adjective than an emotion. So yah, I saw Miss Eugenia and she’s perfect!!! Thanks!!
ROUBLE RUST replied
Anytime hon :) thank you.
