I read about girls in Japan who would traditionally dive for pearl oysters. They are referred to as "Ama." That could make a cute name for her. Or maybe "Biwa" after the freshwater pearls from Lake Biwi. She's my new favorite doll you've made. 💖
I love this idea for a mermaid. When I was a kid, my mum told me that mermaids were born from pearls so this is kind of like a childhood dream coming true. Her and Tritannus look really cute together BTW. Their colour pallets match nicely ❤. As for names, the only thing that I could think of is Iri, short for iridescent which is what her skin reminds me of
She's absolutely gorgeous! I was a little bit worried about how the wavy lines would look, but they came out perfectly. As for the mix and match... Lobster centaur. LOBSTER CENTAUR.
I'm in love with her! Hers color palette is beautiful. She's look like a Venus from Botticelli's painting, well I think it's a great name for her - Venus the Clammaid. She's gorgeous
That's indeed the most unconventional mermaid I've ever seen, would never have thought about clams to make a mermaid! But you did a wonderful job at that, this lady is stunning! As for a name, all my sleep-deprived brain could think of right now is Clamentine, so that it's a pun on "clam" and the name Clementine...
Oh, my god, she literally turned out so beautiful. I've never seen a clam/pearl mermaid before. That's very creative 👌🏻 Since she's attatched to the shell, I can imagine her getting in fetal position, closing the upper lid and sleeping in her shell as well 🐚 I'm not a doll customizer or a crafter, but I'm an artist, so I've also done quite a few mermaid pieces for this Mermay, such as a sea ghost, a random mermaid, an airmaid (an open species by UnknownSpy), a Capricorn mermaid, an octopus mermaid, a jellyfish mermaid princess, a narwhale mermaid, an anglerfish mermaid, an electric eel mermaid and an axolotl merboy, as well as some mergirls, like a goldnixie warrior, a sea angel and a pointy-finned mergirl princess ^^
She's gorgeous! I love the colour palette and the striations look so dreamy. I am jealous of your painting skills, Alex. 😅 And the shell turned out really cool too! (Hope your conference has gone/is going well, Barb!) Thank you both for taking part in the collab. I really enjoyed working with you! 💖💖
I was wondering if you guys would do something for Mer-May. Yay! She's definitely unique. As for unconventional mixing...the first thing that came to mind was a centaur mermaid. Human torso, horse body, including forelegs, but the hind legs are a fish tail. And I'm picturing him as a Shire-orca.
I hate how these videos always make me fall asleep dude too the creators voice being so peaceful then when I wake up I always have to re-start the video
A mermaid design that I stumbled upon when I was but a wee child was of an eel mermaid. Warning: Lil dark and spooky!!! The eels had their arms removed and and scars down their faces so only one eye was still able to open. If I was to mad science a mermaid I'd start with a base of a mer with an eel tail, fuse the arms down the torso and add a graft of lion fish spikes down the back.
It seriously looks wonderful and quite elaborate, I love the color combination you guys used, I'm seriously very, very happy to collaborated with you two 💙😊💙
This definitely the most unconventional and creative concept you ever thought for merfolk!! Amazing. As for merfolk hybrid Ideas, I would love to see someone do a selkie-inspired mermay doll, with a seal-fins or, alternative, make a merfolk whose tail and fins are inspired by butterflies along with a galactic theme. That would be a great idea.
She's so romantic! I loved the color palette and I must tell you, pictures don't make her justice. That pearly shine is absolutely divine. What a treat was watching the process, great job! 😍😍😍😍
How 'bout y'all call her Rhode? As like the Rhodochrosite stone? It expands the conscience, helps relationships, heal traumas and lead us to our soulmate. Not to mention that her color palette matches the stone
That's probably the most original take on a mermaid-like creature I've ever seen, not gonna lie. A "pearlmaid" it's the kind of thing I would've NEVER thought of, not even in a thousand years, and you guys made it work! Kudos About naming her, considering her marbled skin (very "planetary-esque"), unusual beauty, intricated hairstyling, pearls and the whole coming out of a shell thing... What if her name was "Venus", as a nod not only to the planet itself, but also to the Roman goddess of love, beauty, sex, fertility, motherhood and all that? She could also be named "Aphrodite", of course, but... You get my drift 😂😂😂
I think she look incredible~ For a name, what about Rill? Rill means a small steam of water, plus pearl and clams can be found in fresh water as well as salt. Adding to the unconventional theme with a fresh water mermaid.
I really love your merfolk creations and as far as hybrids go I have always loved the fantastical...Hippocampus or Hippocampi (plural form) are half horse and half fish; their head, front legs and upper torso are equine with fish scales to help propel them through the water and increase turning speed and their lower half is all fish...and they are faster then mermaids, just like land equines are, compared to us.
I am blown away at how stunning she turned out. I mean your dolls are always beautiful but there's something truly special about this one. I swear she reminds me of Margot Robbie!
I like the idea of the iridescence on her!! I think that first shell came out fine. Shells often seem to have lines that are more-or-less straight on them, just maybe directed toward the center at the base of them. I think they look fine.
She’s beautiful. I love her colours and patterns. As a kid who loved any toy that had a fantasy/mythical theme, I didn’t really like any of the mermaid dolls cause they all looked the same. Human torso + fish tail. Boring. This would’ve been my dream toy. Awesome work. As for names, what about Akoya (a type of pearl), Tahiti (Tahitian pearl), Keshi (a type of Baroque pearl), Pinctada (south sea pearls) or Corteza (Cortez pearls).
Beautiful work as always! I absolutely love her!. As for your next Mermaid maybe a cross with an animal? Such as a cheetah or a giraffe? Something with a unique color pattern. Or maybe a fairy? Hmm a mermaid with wings?
I'm not sure if you guys already have a doll named Venus, but the entire time watching this she was giving me birth of Venus vibes so I thought it'd be fitting XD
A though that Atlantis would be my favorite mermaid doll (I'm also a Shawol) but this one is pretty amazing! And for names, I think she very much fits Venus description, so maybe Venus or Aphrodite?
Your photo group shots of all the mermaid dolls you made are amazing. I love group photo shots with the same theme. For names, I thought of Pearletta, Mariscola (mixed in Portuguese word Marisco=clam), Aphrodite, Krona, Malz, Blissy, Blysc (part of a polish word for shiny), Rozkosz, and maybe more. Thought of combining words relating to clam, pearl, shiny, and bliss might help.
i hope your conference went well Barb!! The doll is beautiful!! Her faceup has to be one of my favorites of yours Alex!! Omg she's absolutely gorgeous truly an art piece like all of your creations!
Amazing!!!!!!!! I really really really really really love her. Also, I don't think one can use up a mermaid allowance. The ocean is so big!! There are tons of concepts from it you can draw from!!
another beautiful creation with a unique idea. i love mermaids and unicorns and so a narhwal mermaid girl came to mind. even without the sewing skills, she turned out amazing. look forward to future projects.
She’s Stunning.I like this collab.I think you have really thought this out well.I like the pearl effect on her face and skin too.And the shell idea was so clever ..I love her so beautifully done.As all your dolls are.🥰
When you realize that Enchanterium takes breaks from being hella creative to go places and be hella smart too. When I grow up I wanna be half that cool. Also, never would have considered a clam maid for Mermay.
This is, hands down, my favorite repaint you guys have done! I've never seen the faces of the two headed sea serpent doll used before and they look SO gorgeous when repainted! The body has a very creepy-cute vibe to it that I'm all about. 10/10! ❤️
I think a fun mix would be an angler fish and an eel. So an eel tail, a human torso and face, and one of those cute little lantern lures on the forehead!
All of your mermaids look so precious together! The only name I can think of is Coral for her, but that doesn't feel very inspired. I think a harpy/mermaid would be pretty cool! Taking a creature from the sky and smashing it together with a creature from the ocean. Long, glossy wing arms and a scaley tail!
She is fantastic! Very inspired version of a mermaid, I love it! I can only offer uninspiring names like Pearl or Opal, I am looking forward to what you choose to call her though!
Those doll heads are seriously ridiculously big in size compared to the body lol but I can see why high school of the dead and bratz dolls are popular for doll customization
Ohhhhh I love the faceup, it's such a great idea to go with the concept. Love her hair. I like that you made the shells yourself. Hehe only one option for not liking the spikey knee.......cut it out! xD She turned out so pretty, I love her
I read about girls in Japan who would traditionally dive for pearl oysters. They are referred to as "Ama." That could make a cute name for her. Or maybe "Biwa" after the freshwater pearls from Lake Biwi. She's my new favorite doll you've made. 💖
uu Ama is soo cute
Biwama.
Boom, best of both worlds
Btw, this is a really great idea! I hope yours gets picked! Or Biwama!
@@Hara-Jz Omg! Thank you. 😊
Ama is such a good name!!!
Ama is a fantastic idea
I love this idea for a mermaid. When I was a kid, my mum told me that mermaids were born from pearls so this is kind of like a childhood dream coming true.

She's absolutely gorgeous! I was a little bit worried about how the wavy lines would look, but they came out perfectly.
As for the mix and match...
Lobster centaur. LOBSTER CENTAUR.
OMG lobster centaur sounds amazing 💖
LOBSTER CENTAURRRRR ♥️
Wait that’s actually so cool! But honestly any crustacean variant would be neat.
@@Enchanterium I sense Centaur world vibe coming on. :D
YES, LOBSTAUR!!
I'm in love with her! Hers color palette is beautiful. She's look like a Venus from Botticelli's painting, well I think it's a great name for her - Venus the Clammaid. She's gorgeous
Venus on the half shell!
That's indeed the most unconventional mermaid I've ever seen, would never have thought about clams to make a mermaid! But you did a wonderful job at that, this lady is stunning! As for a name, all my sleep-deprived brain could think of right now is Clamentine, so that it's a pun on "clam" and the name Clementine...
This is officially my favourite suggestion I’ve seen
My Stray-loving brain decided to remind me of the robot named Clementine
I think an arctic-style seal mermaid might be a neat idea....... Great job, she turned out STUNNING
Oh, my god, she literally turned out so beautiful. I've never seen a clam/pearl mermaid before. That's very creative 👌🏻
Since she's attatched to the shell, I can imagine her getting in fetal position, closing the upper lid and sleeping in her shell as well 🐚

I absolutely love this doll! So unique! Maybe her name could be some variation of Venus? She reminds me of that painting and I think it suits her!
Was thinking that too; maybe another Aphroditie.
I love unconventional mermaids. This is one of the most high fashion run way doll I've seen. Ngl I want her on a poster
She's gorgeous! I love the colour palette and the striations look so dreamy. I am jealous of your painting skills, Alex. 😅 And the shell turned out really cool too! (Hope your conference has gone/is going well, Barb!) Thank you both for taking part in the collab. I really enjoyed working with you! 💖💖
Thank you for inviting us! 💖💖💖
I always get super excited when you guys make any kind of underwater creature! they're just always perfect
After this beautiful doll I'm going to watch yours Jacky! I'm so glad yall collabed you three are some of my absolute favorite doll customizers.

she’s like the ocean version of opening a flower and finding a fairy inside. a teeny tiny lil magic lady 🧜♀️🧚♀️
I'd love to see a mermaid mix using a seahorse. (Seahorses are super fascinating.)
Check out the illustrations of Tony DiTerlizi if you're not familiar. He did some beautiful mermaid illustrations.
I wish I could vote for this multiple times. Lol
KackyOhhh did that for this collab in fact!
“Like a ski jump” 😂🤣😂 best tata description ever! As always I loved seeing your beautiful repaint ❤️
She reminds me a bit of the actress Hunter Schafer- especially in her role as Jules in Euphoria- love how she turned out! So ethereal
It seriously looks wonderful and quite elaborate, I love the color combination you guys used, I'm seriously very, very happy to collaborated with you two 💙😊💙
Thanks for doing this one with us! 💖

Rhode is the name of a sea goddess/nymph in Greek mythology! She was one of the daughters of Poseidon
@@NancyDrew56 even better! And she reminds me a little of Botticelli's painting " the birth of Venus", such a great inspiration
That's probably the most original take on a mermaid-like creature I've ever seen, not gonna lie. A "pearlmaid" it's the kind of thing I would've NEVER thought of, not even in a thousand years, and you guys made it work! Kudos

12:19 the timing of this joke is just: **chef's kiss** Perfect!
Enchanterium: don't pay attention to the eyes, please...
Me: STARTS INTENSELY LOOKING AT EYES.
I think she look incredible~ For a name, what about Rill?
Rill means a small steam of water, plus pearl and clams can be found in fresh water as well as salt. Adding to the unconventional theme with a fresh water mermaid.
Oh I love this so much. Rill would be an amazing name for her.
She's an ethereal beauty! Magical. I really love mermaids, so appreciate all the ones you've been making! They are all wonderful.
She's absolutely gorgeous! Very unique and beautiful.
Yaaay! I see an update from Enchanterium - I know right away it would be amazing 17:24 minutes of my time. ♥
Maybe something to do with Aphrodite or Venus since she was supposed to have come out of the sea on a claim shell?
The doll is so pretty! I wish I could have seen Dollightful's interpretation of this prompt too.
I really love your merfolk creations and as far as hybrids go I have always loved the fantastical...Hippocampus or Hippocampi (plural form) are half horse and half fish; their head, front legs and upper torso are equine with fish scales to help propel them through the water and increase turning speed and their lower half is all fish...and they are faster then mermaids, just like land equines are, compared to us.
I am blown away at how stunning she turned out. I mean your dolls are always beautiful but there's something truly special about this one. I swear she reminds me of Margot Robbie!
ugh, i really loved the first iteration of the eyes 🥺 she still turned out gorgeous though!!
She’s beautiful! Y’all nailed the concept
She turned out super beautiful ❤️ I'm glad we got to collaborate 😊
She looks lovely! I love her aesthetic so much.
for the mix and match, I'm thinking snake and seahorse or a cat and dolphin
Absolutely beautiful doll. I love the colors you went with for her. My name suggestion for her is Amaryllis.
I like the idea of the iridescence on her!!
I think that first shell came out fine. Shells often seem to have lines that are more-or-less straight on them, just maybe directed toward the center at the base of them. I think they look fine.
Her face is absolutely stunning! I love the pearl string, it adds the perfect touch
Alex did a great job with the face and painting!
I'm sooo in love with the pictures at the end with all the other mermaid dolls? omg ;; so pretty
Ooooh gosh that shell is so PRETTY! it was refreshing to see a project from you two with little sewing.
She’s beautiful. I love her colours and patterns. As a kid who loved any toy that had a fantasy/mythical theme, I didn’t really like any of the mermaid dolls cause they all looked the same.

WOW! This doll is absolutely beautiful! I think she and Ines are my favorites. The color palette is just amazing.
Beautiful work as always! I absolutely love her!. As for your next Mermaid maybe a cross with an animal? Such as a cheetah or a giraffe? Something with a unique color pattern. Or maybe a fairy? Hmm a mermaid with wings?

I love the face up, the shine mixed with the lack of black is gorgeous
i love when you pose your new dolls with your old dolls!! she came out so pretty!!
Amazing!!!!!!!! I really really really really really love her. Also, I don't think one can use up a mermaid allowance. The ocean is so big!! There are tons of concepts from it you can draw from!!
I love the curls! They are the best curls I've ever seen on a doll
Absolutely adore this doll! It reminds me of the painting birth of Venus
The doll turned out wonderfully, so beautiful 💕💕
I love the swirls of pink and yellow!
Ok she reminded me of The Birth of Venus painting the whole video so I believe the name “Aphrodite” would suit her! :)
She reminds me of the painting The Birth of Venus by Botticelli. Great result!
Gotta be one of my favorite faces you’ve done!! She is absolutely GORGEOUS
another beautiful creation with a unique idea. i love mermaids and unicorns and so a narhwal mermaid girl came to mind. even without the sewing skills, she turned out amazing. look forward to future projects.
I would love to see a Sea Monster of sorts for maybe October or just any time of the year you feel like doing something on the more scary side.
You're so creative!! This is probably the most beautiful face up I've seen
I love her face up and hair!! One thing you could try out is mixing the paint you used on the face with chalk pastels.
This doll was incredibly incredibly incredibly creative, and the outcome as always with you both was literal, perfection! Amazing, amazing work!
She’s Stunning.I like this collab.I think you have really thought this out well.I like the pearl effect on her face and skin too.And the shell idea was so clever ..I love her so beautifully done.As all your dolls are.🥰
I love how creative the two of you are together!
When you realize that Enchanterium takes breaks from being hella creative to go places and be hella smart too. When I grow up I wanna be half that cool.
Also, never would have considered a clam maid for Mermay.
Now that’s unconventional! I love her colors so much! Nice job!
“The knees were too pointy.”
*Proceeds to cut them off*
They’re so subtle chaotic and it’s amazing!
Omg at 6:55 in the polymer clay is that the balance symbol from the Longest Journey? It's one of my favourite games :D
I love the details on this doll! and I think I great name for her would be Faridah or Irta!
She's absolutely beautiful! I'd love to see you guys try a manta ray mermaid.
how about a "Mummy Mermaid" next or maybe a series of *Monster Mermaids* in your styles!! it'd be cool ♡
I like the names Pearl and Iris. Love the video btw! ❤
This is, hands down, my favorite repaint you guys have done! I've never seen the faces of the two headed sea serpent doll used before and they look SO gorgeous when repainted! The body has a very creepy-cute vibe to it that I'm all about. 10/10! ❤️
She’s so beautiful, I love the colours you used
Shes so pretty! I love how shiny/pearlecent she is!
Absolutely gorgeous! The pearlescent shine is so pretty.
I think a fun mix would be an angler fish and an eel. So an eel tail, a human torso and face, and one of those cute little lantern lures on the forehead!
All of your mermaids look so precious together! The only name I can think of is Coral for her, but that doesn't feel very inspired. I think a harpy/mermaid would be pretty cool! Taking a creature from the sky and smashing it together with a creature from the ocean. Long, glossy wing arms and a scaley tail!
Love the doll!! And it would be cool to see a doll inspired by downtown abbie like maybe the style or maybe a character anyway great doll as always
She's so pretty! Given that she's representing a pearl, I feel like that name is a given lol.
I absolutely love your mermaid dolls! The first video of yours I saw was actually Nerines, so I ran when I got the notification lol
She is fantastic! Very inspired version of a mermaid, I love it!
I can only offer uninspiring names like Pearl or Opal, I am looking forward to what you choose to call her though!
Oh my Sorcery she's Gorgeously Glorious!!! I love everyone's mermaid dolls, I'll call her Pearla the Clammaid. Happy Mermay to all. :D
She looks great! The texture on the face is so smooth and well done that from the thumbnail I thought yall had hydro dipped the doll or something!
Great work as always, but I also just want to address how much I like the sculpt of the base head you used! It's so pretty~
I agree with everyone suggesting Venus, she absolutely does look like a goddess emerging from a clam shell!
Bruh why are all your dolls so amazing
i am always blown away by your artistry ❤️❤️❤️❤️ gorgeous doll!!!
such a beautiful concept. Looks ethereal
Those doll heads are seriously ridiculously big in size compared to the body lol but I can see why high school of the dead and bratz dolls are popular for doll customization
Ohhhhh I love the faceup, it's such a great idea to go with the concept. Love her hair. I like that you made the shells yourself. Hehe only one option for not liking the spikey knee.......cut it out! xD She turned out so pretty, I love her
Wow she turned out beautiful 💙💜
I love that you included all you other sea themed dolls!🔥
Maybe a good name for them is either opal or something related to Greek mythos. All I know is Lorelei
Lorelei's actually from German mythology but I definitely second the motion for that name. It's an amazing name for a mermaid
I absolutely adore your every mermaid doll. They are all just gorgeous
