Ball joint doll meet 2

I want to take this chance to thank a few friends who kindly help us take photos of Glacier Lily who’s now on display with the other fabulous custom dolls in Singapore at the STGCC (Singapore Toy, Games and Comics Convention)! Thanks Kodomut and Arayden~! And Jooli – pix here! (see Jooli’s beautiful sewing work here)

Went to my 2nd local BJD meet, I almost didn’t make it… ^^; It was organised and hosted by a lovely girl who’s going to a different province to study in about 2 weeks time ^^;/
Mirin… I think she had a blast :P and shown me some sides of her which I didn’t know of ^^;;;; I also brought my hybrid MSD Elliot along :3 Unfortunately her pix were kinda blurry ^^;;;

Interview section

Decided to make a new section for brief interviews with people I personally look up to in the doll field. :) I was inspired to request an interview with Matin sensei after I had the luck to acquire this lovely sofa kit during the last trip to Tokyo.

Office wear and Bikini bottom

If you had seen some of Danny’s recent photos you may have noticed his Ryomo chan wearing a bikini looking very much like the Mirai Suenaga Bikini art :3 It isn’t 100% exact but definitely inspired by the original :) And of course you may also have seen the Jacket which he commissioned from months back? ^^;/

Ball joint doll meet

I attended my first ball joint doll meet this year after so many years of being in Canada ^^; Not sure what was stopping me in the first place. I’m not always good in crowded situations could be one of the reasons crippling me. ^^;  But I am glad I went!  Met some new doll folks and their dolls :) I haven’t been in the ball joint doll scene for a bit, so it’s good to hang out and see what’s out there :)

Mokotan and Vivi chan made a couple new friends of their kind ^o^

Taiga Aisaka make up plan

After seeing the news post on Danny’s site about the up coming Mini Dollfie Dream Louise, I was reminded that I intended to make a customised Taiga Mini Dollfie Dream(MDD) ^o^!  Trying out a computer render on photo of the purchased blank head, wig image is taken from the latest louise MDD photo and tweaked to look like Taiga’s. (very quickly/roughly)  Shall I make an annoyed face or a smirking face? Decisions decisions…

ETA: Sanded annoyed face :P yes I sanded off her lips to lower the mouth, sanded around the nose too ^^; still need tweaking…

Slightly non related, silent auction for Mamachapp is ending in less than a day — 21 July Vancouver 10pm, thank you all for your interest and also those for bidding, good luck!

Dollfie Dream make up test 1

Lookie! Nao Mirai has a sister (maybe?) :3!

The husband got me a blank head as a late birthday present and I finally got around messing with it. It’s a tricky process as I needed to spray a coat as a base to protect the vinyl from being stained permanently, let that dry before I can paint on it etc etc. Had to remove my attempts a few times before I finally got this.  Not sure if she’s gonna keep the look but it’s good for now :)  Her eyes are temporarily stuck on, I need to find some kneadable eraser or white bluetac soon ^^;
