Ball joint doll meets

Had a very small meeting with a couple friends, Mai and Nurie cos I promised them a couple things to do with them regarding sewing :)

Below is picture of Mai’s lovely Yuzuki chan, being stalked by LOL Yoshi ^^; Don’t worry, no dolls or cats are harmed in the taking of these pictures ^^;

Himitsu – DDH04 head customised

Friday was an extremely bright day and I itched to work on Himitsu’s face a bit. I managed to dug out some tools and started shaving/sanding and buffing her right cheek, and I touched up her make up a bit as well, below is the result :)

Big eyed girl

Meet Himitsu ^^; she arrived not too long ago (very quick shipping from volks international – which I am not complaining about) I couldn’t wait and gave her a quick face up ^^; I may redo it in future as I am not 100% happy with it, and I am also considering sanding her cheeks a bit ^^;

Pants for the Dynamite body 2

Tested out pattern, tweaked it, then sewn it in a darker fabric which I suspect should not stain, I had a bit of the fabric on her hands and body for a bit and no staining was observed. The ultimate test to do is to put the pants on a dollfie body for a few days to see if it stains ^^;

Day 2 of wearing the pants

Pants for the Dynamite body

Mirai and Mirin switch bodies once in a while, and whoever gets the dynamite body  had been kinda freezing since I hardly have any clothes which fits that body properly ^^; Finally caved and did a couple test sewing to make pattern for pants for Dynamite body. (What is Dollfie dream dynamite body?)

Clothes and Parts for Mini Dollfie Dream

I decided to swap Taiga’s hands for the bigger Dollfie Dream size hands as I noticed that the part where we pop the hands in are similar in shape and size.
Here, she is using the DD size DDII-H-03 hand (Pointing Hand)

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^

Elliot (MSD)


Elliot is my hybrid doll, she’s MSD size around 43+cm tall (Never really measured).
Her head is Bee-A from Dream of doll her body is Narae, pinky white from Dollfair.com I keep her all wrapped up in a cabinet because too much sun can cause accelerated yellowing to the french resin ^^;  Don’t get me wrong, I love the translucent feel of french resin but I am not sure if I really want to deal with yellowing and having to change Elliot’s body so many times it gets a bit tiring.  I hope in future when I actually have some spare cash I can invest in a Utherane Narae body — not anytime soon tho ^^;

This top’s pattern is heavily modified (almost recreated) off the Doll Coordinate Recipe #4’s Unoa pattern.   I recalled the first couple test pieces were ill fitting disasters :P  This book currently discontinued and I won’t link to somewhere which the book may get sold out, so please search online if you really want to get a copy.

Anyhows, had an idea for an outfit for a while, so took out some modified patterns from what a year + back and tested sewing :) recreated a pattern to get a base pattern I need (still need some tweaking) This version the area under the chest has a bit too much wrinkles, so I gotta fix that ^^;/
