Random Jack

Photobucket

He doesn't have a wig, which is why he's wearing furry hat with a hair extension thingie I made pretending to be his hair. And he has a NS body (which doesn't match well) but that's not why he has scarf. The scarf is to hold the earflaps of the hat together so it doesn't show that he's bald. All that trouble. >.>

Anyway, this is Jack. He's from a different storyline from all my other dolls, and it's set in a distant world. Some of his backstory:
He used to have a different name when he was created. His master requested for a clone of himself, an exact replica, right down to the tiny scar he has on his right eyebrow, even though clones can't get injured and hence cannot have scars. Thus, he was "born". Created, more like it. His master gave him the tattoo on the cheek, which he hides under his fringe, so everyone will always remember who is the real him, and who is the clone. He followed the name his master (the human who he was a clone of) gave him for a long time, but it has been so long since his master died, so long...that he doesn't remember much. So he wandered the streets, never staying on one planet for too long, in case he was discovered to be a clone. For in this current time, clones were unethical, and made for 1 purpose only: research. He later met Danny, whose friend/lover just died. Danny for some reason, decided to give him the name Jack. The name of Danny's now dead friend/lover. And so Jack was re-born.

Also, the 2nd storyline is supposed to be written by Tiyana. So TECHNICALLY, Jack is Tiyana's doll, haha. But Tiyana isn't even a doll in my house, so I'm just talking too much and confusing people. So just know that Jack is a clone, if you didn't understand everything I've wrote so far.

He's getting a wig soon, I hope. And eyes. He's gotta return Nat's eyes when Nat comes home (cats10 shipped him already :D), so I bought some Eyeco greens for him.

I just bought and collected a Fdoll body from a local doll owner today for my Zaoll Muse head (which arrived yesterday). Anyway, I'm still pretty amazed by how fast it is to buy and collect stuff by meetup in Singapore. It's crazily amazing. :D It's how Dennis got his old body, and how Jack (Muse) just got his. Anyway, the only problems I have with the Fdoll body is that 1. it's yellower than Jack, even though his head was painted to match Volks NS but I'm still okay with this, sort of, 2. it has button nipples. They look like 2 lumps stuck on his chest as an afterthought. I'm wondering if I should sand them but the issue is that the body is yellowed, so maybe sanding the chest means I'll have to do the whole torso ...and maybe even the body. Argh. 3. His hands are noodle-y. *Closes an eye...well, at least it's not that bad from some angles....

The thing is, it was really cheap. 150SGD. Hence. And I really want to get Jack a body.

Okay, anyway, the bigger problem now is that I don't have any wig for Jack. Not even 1 in his size that he can borrow. Stupid 7.5inch head. All the wigs I have at home eats his head. Boo. I just PM-ed thereif so hopefully he'll get 1 wig soon. I DID order from S&M for him, but that will take longer to come to me. So thereif, it is. I can try the shaved side wig effect on the plain black one I'm ordering from thereif. Hee.

Yeah, no photos cos he's bald. And cos my brother is using the computer with Photoshop.

Damn gloss

Photobucket

I glossed his lips cos I didn't like how he looked like he doesn't have an upper lip. But as usual, maybe because I don't seal enough msc after I'm done with a faceup, the gloss screwed up his lip colour. The 2 most obvious mistakes are that his right upper lip looks like there's a cut on the outer edge of the gloss, and that his lower lip, the left side, it looks like there's a spot without colour. Like he has a ulcer or something, lol.

But I'm not going to change his faceup, I think, cos I like the eyebrows, and I'm not sure I can get them right again. Anyway, with the right camera angle and lighting, he looks passably fine, and that's not even mentioning the "patch" tool on Photoshop. I was just kind of sad that now that he looks like he has an upper lip, the gloss has to go fuck up his lip colour. D:

Kristolf

He needs his own wig. I want a red head in my crew, haha. In the meantime, Kristolf is borrowing Gabby's wig.

By the way, he's borrowing a Little Monica type B body, which is good proportion wise, but the resin doesn't really match. Leeke NS is pinkish while LM is more creamy/yellow. Zeke looks kind of fine on it, but that's mainly cos I blushed Kristolf more pink (er, I only have brown pastels which I thought would make him yellower, not pinker, lol). But yeah, body woes. Not like I have money left to get him or anyone else a body now. So I'm going to just get wigs and such. Hehe.

I realised yesterday that my friend's favourite artist/BL writer (she writes in Chinese by the way) is Heisejinyao which is kind of related to HZ-Bjd. Not sure if the artist made the bjds herself or found someone to do it, but I was looking at her drawings (which have fantastic colouring, that I'll never be able to accomplish) and the bjds, and wondering how they can be so different.

Spiritdoll's drawing and dolls are quite similar, imo, by the way.

Anyway, it's just random rambling cos I can't progress with Kris's faceup since it's still raining. High humidity=shiny face.

New boys!

I came home yesterday to a package that I didn't expect. I was like, eh, is this my Muse head? Then I realised it's from Leeke, which didn't email me that the heads have shipped, lol. So now I have Zeke (Khal) and Kristolf (Mihael) with me. Hehe. Zeke is a bit hard to fathom, and I've not really gotten to playing around with him. Mostly cos he's borrowing Hew's body and I kind of wanted Hew back on his own body soon. Hew hasn't gotten new photos after he got his body...Yeah, I know. I've been getting too many packages recently to properly play with everyone. :/ Gahh.

Oh yeah, for those who're interested, Leeke NS DOES NOT match Little Monica NS. Leeke is much much pinker. D:

Anyway, let me introduce the new boys. The grumpy one is Zeke, who's a computer geek. He thinks he likes Alfie (Gabby's younger sister) and writes about her on his blog all the time (anonymously, of course). He doesn't realise until later that Alfie likes him too.


And the one below is Kristolf, Alfie's current boyfriend. I'm in the midst of doing his faceup, and it's the first freckled faceup I'm doing. Hope I won't accidentally overblush him. It's now raining so I can't continue his faceup...D:

Little Monica Type A and B body comparison




Anyway, that took me a bit longer than expected to do, cos it's rather rainy these few days.

I've not taken any decent photos of Hew with his new body yet though. :/
