Phone photo of Tiyana's outfit the other day, cos I changed her (finally). I forgot to post this here, because it's a phone photo, and it's much easier to upload this to instagram and tumblr than blogger. Man, I wish I have my normal camera with me, but I left it in hostel.

Basically it's exam week right now, and I came home from the hostel to study. I could only carry so much stuff home with me, so I prioritised my studying materials (duh), both my dolls whom I brought to hostel (Dennis and Jack) and some extra clothes. I couldn't bring my camera after everything, sadly. BUT, my exams end tomorrow, so I should be going back to pick my camera back up, if I remember to take a detour from school back home, lol.

I've been wondering if Tiyana needs some glued in upper eyelashes...cos it seems like she looks just a bit bare. I don't know if I should try looking for short-ish human ones or order some doll sized ones if any shop I'm going to buy other stuff from carries. Oh, and I really should get her some shoes (she only has that pair of heels in the photo) >_<.

Anyway, some lists of things I want to do after my exams:

To-do:
1. Try the acrylic wig dyeing method on the wig I bought (need to cut it first)
2. Make more doll jewelry!
3. Buy eyelashes for Tiyana
4. Sew some clothes with the new fabric I bought
5. Try making the wig from yarn for Sion this time :|
6. Look for clothes that fit Tiyana better/buy her shoes

Maybes:
1. Do white-glue scars on Dennis's wrists?
2. Send Sion for modding to get his ear gauges (or should I just glue his earrings back on??)
3. Get new wigs for the twins and Caillen??
4. Do Sion's finger tattoos (I need MSC D:)
5. Slim Caillen's nose mod????????
6. Matching wrist tattoos for Hew and Sion?
7. Buy Kristolf's body :(

It kind of sucks to not have enough money to get bodies for my floating heads. I think I grew a bit too used to when I could buy paypal funds from Singaporean owners without incuring fees. Nowadays, Singapore paypal accounts can only send normal payments, so buying pp funds off another owner and transferring them SGD isn't an option. And I've not really been making or selling doll jewelry so no income from that end, much. But despite that, I'm kind of getting into the mood for "shopping" around (more like looking around) to see what bodies I can get for my floating heads.

First is Kristolf, my Mihael head. Some drawings (kind of old) which I did, to show you what he looks like. He's kind of stocky/buff and tall. 

He can't really borrow anyone's body cos he's either too short, or too thin on those bodies.

I've been thinking of getting him a Granado Nuevo body for a while now, but saving up has been really slow :/ The alternatives were Impldoll 72cm body but that's kind of thick/even taller than what I need so...

Caillen, my Migi Cynical Ryu, I've been thinking of getting a Popodoll 68cm body but I don't hear much news about Popodoll recently so I'm not sure if they're still the same shade of NS etc...but he's kind of lower on the priority list, so I figured I'll look at it when it comes to it. Alternatively I was looking at Dikadoll 72cm body (10cm neck or was it 11? Either way, a thinner neck and shoulders than most dolls in that height range), but again, not sure if I want such a tall body hmmm...

Oh yeah, forgot to say, he's supposed to be lean and trim, not like someone who pumps iron too much, but who obviously cares about his appearances. I quite like the overall frame when he's borrowing the Akagi body but it'll be better to have more muscle on him.

Joe, my Esthy Peroth rerelease. Uhh. He's meant to be not too fit but not fat per se. Just kind of thicker, I would say, and his shoulders are not that broad (but not super narrow like Gabby lol). I kind of like him on the Volks SD13 body (resin doesn't match though):



But besides the fact that I don't particularly love the SD13 body cos it's not the best poser really, I don't want repeats of bodies if I can...And it doesn't really match either.

And I know from taking photos of him on the Akagi body that he doesn't look right on that lanky body with broader-ish shoulders :(


So... I'm really trying to find something close to SD13 or SDGr but a bit less painful on my wallet. Is there even such an option? I mean, if money wasn't an issue, I'll totally buy the SDGr and like, blush his head to match, but it's really expensive (I can probably buy Kristolf AND Caillen's body with the money), and I don't know...I can't justify spending that amount for 1 body vs 2. GAH. I can't find any options with the thickness of body and limbs except Volks but I don't want another SD13 body (which is okayish priced 2nd hand but that's not the issue :( ). I don't know man. Maybe I should just suck it up and prepare to save for an SDGr body after I'm done saving for Kristolf's body (long way away, man).

Sorry for the long rant but I forget how body woes are annoying. >_>

I happened to bring my camera back when I went home from hostel the other day, so I snapped some shots even though it was midnight-ish. This are the twins. And Tiyana's head is on the bottom left of the photo but she didn't get in the shot cos she looked a bit too shocked/wide eyed without proper posing (I was lazy, they were all in my wardrobe and hard to move about). Haha. Sion's wearing a necklace I made the last time I went home, but haven't had time to take photos of to sell.



And a different corner of my room with Zeke. I changed his clothes and everything, but he kind of still looks the same. I'm super happy he fits in Sadol delf-sized jeans though. Cos that means he can share clothes with my other dolls although he's taller. Haha. But man, those jeans are tight on him (sorry, you can't see >_<)
