Homemade isn't exactly the right term..."redone" fits better. This is an old, 5 minute craft Project Slinky and I partook in when we were living in the dorms. It began as me telling her how the official Barbie Harley Quinn looked like Barbie going as Harley Quinn, like for Halloween or something. So, we had an old, cheap Barbie with us...now that I think of it, I don't know why we did...and we redid her.
The Materials used were a black sharpie, a red marker, a photo of the cartoon Harley Quinn (for reference), white acrylic paint, red acrylic paint, and electrical tape.
We simply drew and colored in the basic pattern for Harley's outifit, pulled the doll's hair into pigtails, wrapped them in electrical tape, painted one side red, painted her white collar on...and volia! We also painted her face white, drew in her mask, and tried our best to color her lips the appropriate color. I think our Harley Barbie looks better than the actual Harley Barbie, don't you?
Sadly, my sister was messing around with this doll and the elecritcal tape came off. I have no idea where she is now. But, it's not like we couldn't redo it.
Photos compliments of Slinky...composite photo of the craft was done in GIMP by yours truly, along with a few edits.
We should definitely re-do her! LOL. That was a fun little project. We had the Barbie because we wanted to see if her head/hair would work in your other craft project (colored hair insertions). We totally rock the sharpies...lol.
