Been a while o_o

Hello stranger ^^;

The theme I was using for this page got nuked, so I have to use a new one, and while at it, I am making an update!

The page looked something like the screen capture below for the longest time, but wordpress got really finicky to update, and there was a lot of spam comments so I eventually also turned off comments.

The new theme will likely need some adjustments to look decent. I am keeping this site up for now as there were some posts which might be of some use, like tutorials, past posts to Japan etc.

Unfortunately, Yoshi had passed away 2022 Jan 5th from kidney disease – he was 13 years old also dearly missed ;_; Due to various reasons, I had also stopped drawing House with 2 cats.

I am still drawing and sharing my artwork @puppy52art, and also include some doodles with my hand made doll clothing I share some exclusive contents on my patreon at puppy52.com if you wish to check it out! Ginko (She is epileptic) is still around with us and currently her seizures is being managed with daily medications, and I am trying to focus on trying to make a living wage with my doll clothing creations.

News on Patreon

Sorry for the lack of updates here! I had been busy preparing for a big deadline in April (coming very very soon) and I will be away for a little bit, sneak previews and early news will be posted on my patreon at puppy52.com  (some news will be public – free for all followers and those who pledged an amount will get first dibs/news!) as it is a little bit easier for me to update through my phone without being affected by stupid algorithms — I don’t have my computer with me all the time to update word press blog here, also if you are curious why did I start a patreon you are very welcome to check it out!

Patreon page~!

Below is a sample of goodies (in hi res) pledged patreons will get) Direct link here.

One more of Mirai taken outdoors in the freezing butt cold against the Wings on the wall in Kitsilano ^o^

Happy Holidays! ^o^)/

Winter collection 2017

23 Dec 2017: Thanks everyone for your orders, I have taken enough orders to close shop for a while and I will be working on making them over the following month. Orders from this time period may be ready to ship from 2 weeks to a month after ordering, due to holiday season. 

Merry Christmas and Happy 2018!

 Due to the limited availability of some of the materials, I will be randomly listing the items this week/early next week or until I run out.  This blog entry is to document the items for this upcoming update.  (Latest news is on twitter @puppy52).

Sometime ago I made something which I was very happy with inspired by an Inktober artwork (click to view) but I felt that it was missing some pieces to accompany it, so I created a turtle neck and skirts to go with it.

Toadstools hunt with Chitose

Gosh, been a while since the last photo update!

Halloween is coming up quick, I was inspired to make a slightly “witchy” theme for Chitose…

In Autumn there’s a time when Mushrooms/toadstools are quite abundant, and we managed to hit the mother load of my favourite toadstool – Amanita muscaria.

Daisy Bikini preview

I had this idea for a while now, and finally put it into action ^^;  Then…. I counted the daisies I have and realized I don’t have a lot of it for too many so… So!  I want to find out which style do you prefer?

This post is mainly to document the sets, I will tweet the latest updates @puppy52 so stay tuned!  Meanwhile I am trying to source for more of the daisies appliqués so fingers crossed!  In future, if I managed to get a replacement daisy appliqués they will unfortunately probably look different from these… ;_;

Vending at iDoll

I mentioned before, that last year in December I was selling at iDoll for the first time!

Due to my good experience applying and vending at iDoll last time, this year I applied to vend at iDoll Vol. 49 in Tokyo on 23 April 2017!  I will be vending with KitDolls who make crochet items (it will be her first time vending, yoroshiku onegaishimasu!)  If you happen to be in Japan at that time, we hope to see you there! iDoll Vol. 49 will be held at TRC it will be my first time going to that area.

Below is our “PR cut” image — the table number and location will be announced on the iDoll’s website as the date draws closer. I am still preparing the items I am intending to bring/show case so I will post about it when it gets closer too.

When I visited Japan last June for Blythe Con Tokyo, I met up with a Alphond who told me that applying for iDoll for Foreign sellers isn’t very difficult and that I should try for it. Turns out we found some cheap air fare to Japan in November and so I decided to bite the bullet and apply for iDoll!

That backless sweater…

Shop status – currently out of stock. Update 2017 Feb 12: Grey piece is sold out. Shipped a bunch of orders on Sunday, 12 Feb. I will be working on orders taken this week, target to ship next weekend!
Latest updates @puppy52 on twitter.  Thank you! ^^/

I noticed there was a trend on fb/twitter and realized I could make it! So I made it as a joke really and… people wanted to buy it for their dolls o_o; In fact, some people contacted me and got the item before I have time to prepare the post and list them on my shop (Thank you peeps!)

Picture below is Ebi (Smart Doll Ebony L bust) and Chitose (Smart Doll M bust)

Note pictures may show a lot of skin, so probably NSFW under cut. You have been warned!  Read more
