The prettiest, most handsome of my boys is now sold and in the loving care of his new owner! :)

This leaves me with four dolls and two floating heads, of which one head is getting a body, the other is being sold as are two of the remaining dolls... if only I can find a buyer for them :/

Well, after meeting dreamfox today and dropping off the OD Dae IL I found this generic looking metal bar-net-thing protecting some basement windows in the Old City and decided to try and take a few photos of Teige there... He was less than cooperative, which I think had to do with me having dressed him in Drystan's clothes and boots as well as Tanis' wig, but I was proving a point! CP NaNuRi'06 can be, if not manly, then at least boyish with the right wig and clothes.

(Damn, I really need to re-do that face-up and body blushing... When Drystan's new body arrived we'll have a full day of doll face-body-care!)

My fingers totally hate me now - I hot glue sueded Napoleon, my former OD Dae Il, for his new owner - but it was worth it since he poses a lot better now! It always surprises me how much of a difference a little bit of glue does.

I've also decided to buy Drystan a body new - depending on the answer I get from Demon Garden it will either be a DG P-NS body or another 1/3 boy body from Fantasy Doll (same as Teige). I'm rooting the DG body - the knees make me weak in the knees and it'd be a lot more fun with different bodies for my Nanuri's - but they seem to be out of stock right now (maybe they're waiting for July 1st when they'll increase the price (not very nice)?).

Anyhow, Drystan is getting his Luts neck doughnut piece part thing soon - I can't get in on Luts' site, but there's a group order on the open Swedish forum I've joined so ha! Take that messed up rooter firewall options! He'll also get a few things from Dollmore in another group order - and I've almost finished his dreadlock wig!



All that's left is to sew the individual dreads to the cap... I'm not really looking forward to sewing 100+ tiny dreads in neat rows, but the things we do for art ;D

I'm finally selling my OD Dae Il! The decision has been long in coming, but I've never seemed to be able to take the final step before - I have now: the moment I find a buyer the prettiest of my crew will be leaving along all his wigs and pretty, tiny eyes.



Some small part of me fell in love all over again when I took him out of the box for photos, but another more sane part said that this is for the best. He deserves attention and love, something he's never got from me because I find him too small.

I really hope someone loving and caring takes it upon them to adopt him and shower him with love - he's so very beautiful (I have only one thing to say: man-hips of sex! His hipbones are the sexiest things ever sculpted - they are pure works of art!)

I'm going to give Napoleon a second chance - new face-up, body blushing and a tattoo + hot glue sueding (when I do Teige's legs) if I still can't find it in myself to love him he's history. His hands are teh sex and he's so very beautiful, but if I can't love him and care for him like I do my other dolls I really don't see a reason to keep him around.

In other news I'm running a HLJ group-order on SnD, which I theoretically don't have time to do, but I made a schedule that will work more than well (and I really need more MSC so if I don't who will?).

Oh, and Napoleon isn't the only one with a tattoo in the works, I'm planing on finally getting that blasted dragon tattoo I've been wanting since I was twelve (I just need to draw it first)! Winter is a good time to get tattoos - no temptations to walk outside only partly dressed and whatnot so the skin has time to heal properly. I'm going to try and persuade my darling sister to come with me and hold my hand - haha! to get her own tattoo.

Lastly: who was the genius that decided to put lectures in the late afternoon? It's messing up my entire day!

My Shengxi head finally got painted! I gave her a natural look with light freckles and a mouche. She's obviously borrowed Dena's body (maybe I'll let her keep it); if the weather permits I'll take her outside tomorrow, which will result in better photos :)

Spring is the time to throw away the old and switch it for something new... So I re-did Napoleon's old rather crappy face-up. Yeah, I adored Napoleon's last face-up, but it was crappy. I went for the look I originally had intended for him - a dark, somber look - not as vibrant and happy as his old one (see icon).

BTW, sorry for the bad photos, but indoor lightning in combination with my mum's camera - not so good.

I made my second ever face-up yesterday! Once again it was my OD Dae IL that got it, and I made my first wig too (also for him). And now I finally remember why I feel in love with him; there is something slightly El-ish about him, I think, something about the nose - and I love it :)

Sadly he turned nameless because of the new look, but I've decided to name him Napoleon after the Ani DiFranco song by that same name (don't know why exactly, but the song was stuck in my head).

The necklace is made by selurnis , and all my boys have fallen in lust with it, but it was bought for Tanis (but he hasn't arrived yet, so the boy borrow it in turns...).

Ack, I just adore my boy, no risk of me selling him now :D

Yes, Thoth just arrived! Not only is he so beautiful he takes my breath away, he also has a magnetic head-cap so I don't have to kill my finger's every time I have to mess around in his head!

Anyhow, on with the box opening:

( comparison between Fychan and Thoth )

I've just restrung Thoth because both his legs and arms were crazy because the stringing was too loose (and it still is, but I can't string him any harder *cries*). Still, he's just amazingly beautiful - photos do him no justice.
