It was much more simple to coat her this way, I would&#8217;ve lost interest already at that point if I&#8217;d coated each little piece a few at a time&#8230; not to mention, I would&#8217;ve ran out of time, too, blushing all the pieces separately.

In spring I was inspired by the apple blossoms with a tiny bit of pink on white, so I decided to use those colours for Lala. She&#8217;s mostly kept her white colour, but I added a touch of pink and green on the flowery\/leafy parts of her body and used dark brown for her horns and hooves. I also added a bit of green to the &#8220;thorny&#8221; parts of her horns, to make them seem like budding leaves.

She&#8217;s still missing her correct eyes, too, these Soom eyes that I had don&#8217;t suit her well, but they&#8217;re the only ones light coloured enough for her to wear &#8211; the eyes I received with her are way too dark. :S<\/p>\n<p><center><a data-flickr-embed=\"true\" data-header=\"true\" data-footer=\"true\"  href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/mizya\/19544967242\/\" title=\"Flower deer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/322\/19544967242_a7be5351be_o.jpg\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" alt=\"Flower deer\"><\/a><script async src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/center><\/p>\n<p>I ordered eyes for her and little sheepy, like, over a month ago from Captured in Glass.
