frankenstein 

To hack off choice bits of one or more existing items and then attach them to a new project, thereby bending them to suit your own requirements (diabolic or not). No gothic castles, fortuitously-timed electrical storms or god complexes required for this kind of assembly. Term introduced on the Handyman for the Common Man web TV show.
"To build your own awesome and inexpensive jib boom, you’ll need to frankenstein parts from an existing tripod and an L-bracket. With mad skills, all things are possible."

frankendolling 

To take parts from other dolls (see dolling) to create one of your own. This can be by changing the colours, copying the shape of an article of clothing, etc. This is a extremely serious offense in the dolling community. The likely-hood of not being caught is zero to one. Dollers in the community are always very familiar with eachothers works.
"A person once frankendolled a doll I had done of myself. She was obvious about it too. She had simply changed the colours of the pixels. And then had the nerve to post about loving my work in my tag board!"
"Doll removed due to frankendolling."

Frankenface 

Is similar in many ways to the butterface but this version requires that the females face must look like it was assembled from various parts. The overall effect is one of true repulsion and should never make up for the smoking body effect. Sometimes when the Frankenface enters the room Alice Cooper appears and screams, "Feed My Frankenstein!!".
"Damn that bitch has a Frankenface."

"Man I can't believe he hit that shit it looked like she had five different faces pieced together like a Frankenface."

"That Frankenface made me puke."
