Doll collectors know better than anyone: finding a model of characters or famous people that are authentic and realistic is very complicated. But for the Mexican artist Gil Plazola, the subject is on another level! Gil uses prefabricated dolls in their primary form, without anything special, until they are transformed into iconic actors and singers. "Since my childhood I like barbies, and the inspiration for making my doll repaints is Hollywood actresses," said the artist to Bored Panda.

Thank You for your inquiries, but I do not do commission work. I only create & offer original OOAK dolls at this time

Dolls are a beloved toy out there and most kids love to play with them, although sometimes, people take their fondness for dolls into adulthood and never grow out of them. It is quite trendy today to recreate dolls and repaint their faces to make them look more detailed and realistic, and that is exactly what Spanish artist José Francisco Cerezo Roldan does.

Jolie is a fully repainted doll with restyled hair. I use the whole doll as my canvas; therefore, Jolie is artistically anatomically correct.
