I wanted to make a carrot cake today but didn’t check the recipe well enough. It’s a vegan recipe that requires soaking cashews in water for at least 12 hours before you use them 🥲
So instead, I plan to paint Easter eggs.
And by Easter eggs I mean the colorful #YouAndIdolPreCure figures that are painted very sparingly by the manufacturer 😁
This is what I’m starting with.
I already did, but it’s all so small and painting on top of another paint job that is sealed with some fixative is no joke. Somehow it feels tougher than the last times I did this - maybe I’ve just become more perfectionist about it.
So far I’ve mostly painted with white to prime parts that need a different color…

Cure Zukyoon is done ✅
The frustrating thing is that after this much time I have only finished her and am in the middle with Cure Kiss, the other 3 aren’t even started.
Done with Cure Kiss ✅
I’m stopping at this for now because it really takes so much time. I’m not sure if I just misremember how it was the last times or if the number of painted details has really decreased significantly (again).
Finished ✅
It really took working on them a few hours on every one of the 4 days of the long Easter weekend, but here they are now in full painted glory.

Direct comparison for Cure Kyun-Kyun and Cure Wink.
I won’t show Cure Wink from the back because her hair made it near impossible to paint the torso without gaps. And with Kyun-Kyun the top was terrible because of her hands in the way.
Last but not least Cure Idol.
The ribbons were thankfully flexible enough to bend them out of the way and paint the skirt all the way around.
@yellowjitsch the extra detail really makes a difference! They look so cute!
