Splish Splash.....Ah the sound of water, life giving and cooling. :)

For this swap alter a barbie to embody water. This means she needs to be:

*Fully painted/covered (no original skin color)

*No original eyes( paint them, beads, diamonds, glitter etc)

*When you look at her, your mind should think...water. ( and yes, mermaids are acceptable, but not disney type mermaids. think the kind that ram sailors into rocks or drag them into the ocean-the cool kind)

There shouldn't be any:

stickers slapped on (a few are fine, covering her in them-not ok)

peeling paint

bad smells

parts sticking to each other, unless that is intended

sloppily done hair

don't just wrap in fabric etc

dont color with markers (permanent markers and water based are a no) (paint markers are ok)

(these are all issues i have seen so far) i encourage you to take pictures if you are not sure.

no sloppy jobs, I WILL RATE DOWN or boot you from the group if i get a complaint of a sloppy job. i've already had to do this, and i was very dissapointed by it.

i am giving a month to do this, so there is really no excuse to turn in sloppy work. please do not join if you can't adhere to these guidelines. thank you
