Anime Northish update

Hey guys!

Its been a while but honestly, not much is going on in dolly world. Anime North was a couple of weekends ago and I visited Doll North once. They had many beautiful dolls on display that they were selling. Also this year the market place was really cool and it was great they stayed open all weekend. Well great for them but bad for me, I wish that I could have bought everything at the Luxour Academy booth! In a nutshell, that is why I only visited once. Just too tempting.. Seems that weekend Selene got a lot a love as she received 2 pairs of shoes. Tai finally got her nikes and Reily a lap top. Nothing for lil Shiera but not to worry she get some love soon lol! I also made them all school uniforms but I never had the chance to photograph them together, maybe next time..

Anywhoo, took a few photos of my purchases. Hopefully next post will be more interesting! Oh yes, I attempted to make Tai some fake nails as those are a prominent items in gyaru style. Found a tutorial on deviant art that used straws so I gave it a try. They turned out alright but not sure how they will hold up during the weekend. I'll be attempting to make Tai a bathing suit for this weekends island meet, we'll see how that works out as well. Until next time,

April Dollfie Dream Meet

Hey guys,

This Saturday was the April Dollfie Dreams meet and it was actually nice enough that we went outdoors for some photos! I brought little Selene along as she has never been to a meet and she is vinyl (well not that that has ever stopped Reily or Shiera). Anywhoo, here are some photos before we left and at the meet! Not sure what my next project will be.. But I'll probably be making some sort of outfit for Reily as she hasn't been getting much attention :(
Well until next time!

She's here!

Hey guys,

After a short wait, Vmf Yumi is here! As soon as I opened up the box, I fell in love with her. She's really cute in person and I like her body shape. I took a photo of her yesterday in a wig she came with then today I made her a new wig. We decided to play a little dress up so here's a few photos:

(She came with a cute little ice cream cone)

 (Close ups and one in the new wig, we'll see what I style it into)

I also ordered her some boots from Dollmore which look great but I didn't get any pictures of her in them since I love the magnetic feet. Oh yes I finally got to order those damn cigarette props! Here's some photos:

(Look at these two bad girls! P.S. Reily doesn't smoke!)

(Clearly Shiera really enjoyed hers lol)

Well that's all I have for now, next I'll be working on an outfit for her and a name. I'll be working on some |Doll North cosplays too.. *Sigh* So little time, so much to do..

New Wig, new girl, new home

Greeting ya'll,

I thought it was time to make something new since I haven't had much time in a while AND its a long weekend! As we all remember, Tai just went to Blacky's for her tan and now she wanted a new hair style to compliment her new look. I asked her to pick one and she choose this:

I took one look and said to her "I accept the challenge!"

After a couple of hours fitting her with a new wig base, curling the hair and gluing on the extensions  without further adieu, here is Tai!

If anyone is interested on how I accomplished this wig, here is a link to my tutorial: Wig tutorial 2. I attempted to take some photos outdoors but the wig proved to be a menace and the session ended prematurely. Well here are some that didn't turn out too horribly:

Well in other news, I've purchased an other of my dream girls! Remember my christmas list? Well its coming home to roost as I've got my hands on a Vmf50 Yumi! She was shipped Saturday and I can't wait to see her. I plan to call her Mo short for Motoko and have her refaced but first things first I must see her in person to see if the name fits. We all know what happened with Shiera as I thought she'd be a Raven. Well here's a picture to refresh the memory of sweet lil' Yumi:

I plan to make her a purple or black wig and red eyes. Something along the lines of Motoko in this photo:

Not sure if I want to go with this neural look or have her eyebrows a bit angry. Well time will tell and she should be here within 5-7 days.

My last bit of news is that I finally have a display case all to my girls! I have dubbed it "Bludhaven Towers" and they live on the top shelf with I call "The pen house".. Lol yes I know pretty nerdy but I think its sweet and I'm glad they have somewhere face to rest their little heads from my little wretched cat Yoruichi.

Anywhoo! That is all for now.. Until next time!
