micro updates

Pomp is here and is spending time with Tiresias. :3 I took some pictures of him/them and you can view some of them here . He was going to have blue eyes, originally, but I like him more with heterochromia. His wig is also a bit small, but it works well. :D It's what I get for forgetting about MNFs' head sizes varying. So along with getting Pompeyo, Topher's horns came in (but I need new magnets because I broke some and then had a superglue accident) and I (obviously) have a camera! It's a Canon Powershot AS1000 is , and it's pretty nifty. I'm still getting use to it, but it's been giving me great results. And now I want to focus on getting Archer (mnf shushu), Angie (mnf miyu), Harris (mnf rheia), Vadin (iple asa/limho mono), and maybe Frait (doll-chateau dorris). o_o Something tells me that these plans aren't going to stick, but I hope they do.

Body Types

Fairylaaaand. Why are the B-Line bodies talller? :C This kind of ruins the group dynamics that I set up. I mean, I would buy some for... Hector, Helenus, and Tiresias (Who was going to get that body anyway) but I don't want them to have limited mobility. And it doesn't make sense for me to do that since the first two are athletes. B| (And maybe I wanted them to have muscle bods?) Hm... I'm not sure what to do now. I could just buy them B-Line bodies and roll with it. And if I ever need to, do some head swapping so they're more mobile. :I Now I need to figure out who needs what type of body. Booo.

keep on, keepin' on

I'm getting somewhere, and yet back tracking. I finished paying for Pompeyo and he's on his way here, pre-ordered the body that he and Tiresias will share for the time being (now I know that I will need 390$ for one bod), bought his eyes, and have asked for his wig. So that kid is pretty much ready. I've also inquired about Topher's horns (It seems the sale fell through, so they're back on the market?) and I've asked a friend about a camera she was selling. I haven't heard anything yet, but I'm being patient. =u= )b Now I'm worrying about clothes. I tried looking for free patterns, but nothing has shown up. I'll keep  looking but I bet I'll have to free hand it when the body gets here. :/ I would try to use Ben, but her being a girl and all... >:T But I feel good about this. (I'll feel even better when I heard about the camera, though.) But it'll be nice to have full-ish dolls around the house. :3 Plus it'll be my first...

Doll Groups

I need to stop purchasing things for a second so I can get this information typed up. I separated the BJDs on my wishlist into groups, so I'm going to try to do that here for... everyone. Beasties = Christopher 'Topher' Luwen = Ricky Show = Cole Cobalt Guhn = Dez = Rumore =  Nest Nekros =  Blazar Atrophic = Frait Keep Greek Line + Trend 2 B U = 'Tiresias' = 'Pompeyo' = Alexandra 'Cassandra' Apoltel = Alexandros 'Paris' Callus = Andrew 'Andres' Helenus = Hector Fallon = Archeron 'Archer' Collins = Angelon 'Angie' Collins = Hillary 'Harris' Septembre = Vadin 'Traxx' Lohher Midway = Edw ard ( Eddy) 'moji~★' Victin = Icara //misc = Tep = Gammon = Benny Robbinz
Heh, there goes my whole 'Oh, there's only going to be five more dolls I want to buy!' fling. Now it's moved to 'Get a shit ton of MSDs? Okay!' jegusallidoislistthings. So I don't think I'll get those character dolls of Hitsugaya and Luppi (Bleach) yet, because I still need to plan everything for them. I made a post about it earlier but it's missing some major things (Like face-up and body artist/s). Plus I haven't written about the pair for some time and I really wanted the dolls to help me see any scenes I had a problem writing. Now I've moved on to this... Ten character, mainly Greek 'character'/name yoinking thing that has some promise. And then this other idea where I give Eddy a pet fox spirit-thing that doesn't do much but lounge on him. But back to the idea with the longer cast. I really  need to start drawing characters out because I'm about to go on a head buying spree and have no clue on anyone...

MNFs and Such

Instead of a JDF Terra, I think I'll make Vadin an Iplehouse JID Asa. The sculpts are pretty similar, but I'll have to make him a hybrid. :T Positive, the size will be more of what I want. If I can just mod it onto an JID boy body, then that'll be perfect. (Or find some others MSD that's ~46cm?) So all together, in character map form, there's :: Vadin ‘Traxx’ Lohher ❤ [Angelon] Angie Collins  ← Sibling to → [Archeron] Archer Collins [Hillary] Harris Septembre ←Friends with→  Angie Archer ←   Friends with  →  Alexandra ‘Cassandra’ Apoltel 'Pomeyo' ← Friend/Chauffeur → ‘Tiresias’  ←   Frenemies with  →  Cass ← Friends with → Andrew 'Andres' Helenus Helenus ← Friends with → Hector Fallon ❤ Alexandros 'Paris' Callus ...I think this is the best character map I have ever made. And it's doesn't look terribly confusing (Even though I didn't put sculpts, but that would have cluttered everything.) Anyway , that's...
i love having the feeling of 'this doll idea is awesome! sell all of your current dolls to get new ones.' ppffftt ohellno. as long as i'm in this, nothing is getting sold. anyway. i'm more sure about getting MNFs for some greek myth sort of thing. especially since I have a mnf seorin on hold. so that's Tiresias, Pompeyo (young boy who leads Tiresias in some scenes, not the general or whoever), Cassandra, Helenus, Paris, and Hector. (And then Angie, Archer, and Harris.) I need to start making depictions of them, because I'm pretty sure I have no idea of how I want them to look. ((This post is crap, I'll try to make it better later. It works for a poor reminder, though.))

Day at TRU/WalMart Haul

Record of MH haul - Day at the Maul Fashion Pack Dead Tired Draculaura Mad Science Lagoona Home Ick Frankie School's Out/2.0 Frankie I'm surprised that I took a liking to the dolls that I was getting/going to have multiples of. I really planned to only keep their clothes, but by the time I got in the car, I was making characters. XD Anyway, I was bummed that neither Toys R Us or Walmart here had Spectra (Or Abbey, since she should be released here by now), since I really wanted to buy her. I'll have to just keep my eyes open. But I'm glad I have a Draculaura of my own (Now to wait for her Journalist outfit <3) and more clothing options. ...For the girls, anyway. 8|
Trying to buy bodies second hand, but it's not really working so I'm just going to put a MNF one on layaway and then buy one from DollnDoll. And... I think I'm going to actually buckle down on this 'personal doll' thing. Might get a MNF Rheia, if the idea sticks. Oh, and I'll see if I still want horns for my Afi. The Taco/Dolomi horns are tempting... :|c

BJD RELATED THINGS FOR FRIENDS = COMPLETE (FOR THE MOST PART.) DON'T REALLY WANT TO DO THAT AGAIN. :'D I think I'm going to get a few custom MH dolls, since owning duplicates are imminent. I have three characters ready, so I'll just need the dolls and the money. |D It should be good, though. I don't think I'm doing anything else but trying to save for doll bodies. I kind of want a Soom Syen, but I doubt that's going to happen (Unless I splurge, then feel bad for getting a doll instead of completing one.) 8|" So... sort of at a stand still.

one big greek family

The more I delve into the mythos of Troy, the more dolls I want. I feel bad for Tiresias, because he'll be the only one from Thebes, but he won't be the only prophet, so I guess that's okay. This is really only dependent on one doll- Cassandra. S He'll be a Shiwoo, but if I fall out of love with the sculpt, then there goes the rest of the gang. So I already have Tiresias (Even though he doesn't count, but he started this) and he's a Sleeping Scar Breakaway. Then there's Cassandra (Shiwoo, ♂), Paris (Rix), Hector (Karsh), and Helenus (Shiwoo; Who I just recently learned about & he sounds like he would be a great friend for Tiresias because people believe him, unlike crazy Cass.) Also, silly me didn't realize that Priam had a lot of kids. And I only ever knew about Paris, Hector, and Cassandra. Story/Character wise, these are the reincarnated versions of the originals. They'll have more casual ~ punk clothing from what I can imagine, and on...

not exactly a checklist but sort of close [hitsu/luppi]

I'm going to fill this with head-canon dribble, because it's doll related. or something. FACE-UP/FACE/HEAD I don't know if I'll want Luppi to have his eyebrow markings as tattoos or piercings. Before I wanted them to be piercings, but I'm not sure anymore. I know that they would be rings, if I kept to that route. Luppi's wig is coming from Dollmore, and I think Hitsugaya's will be from Sunny's. I'll have to double check, but I found the perfect wig for him. There are lavender eyes from Dollmore, I think, that I'd get for Luppi, and I'll be on the lookout for some for Hitsugaya. For Face-Ups, I don't have an artist in mind, but I hope I can find someone who can do face-ups, tats, and body mods. So then I don't have to send my dolls to a bajillion different people. BODY Luppi's going to be genderless (Mainly because I don't care for a boy bit to be put on him) and have his 6 tattoo. I'm contemplating on seeing if ...
I think I'll have to make plans for a doll day. Right now, I'm at work with Topher and Guhn (It's been awhile since I've taken them out of the house) and as I was fiddling with them I noticed that they looked different to me. I'm not sure how or why, but something just looked different about them. I think they, and possibly my other dolls, will be in need of a style change. Maybe I'll see to it when I figure out my purchasing. There are about 11 dolls and two bodies I would like to get as of right now. I've reached a point where I'm not sure if I would still like to have the characters I imagined for the dolls (mostly because I don't have some big, elaborate story featuring everyone together) and it's a bit frustrating when I know that I spent so much time on the character creation and being giddy about coming up with things for them to do. I've also been buying adoptables/designs for characters and have mainly been using them for writing...

let the hunt begin!

I'm pretty stoked about the next wave of Monster High dolls coming out. I'll be looking out for the Clawd/Draculaura pack and Spectra when they hit stores (Or reasonable online prices.) I'm also interested in the new BJD company 'Doll Chateau.' I really like their Colin sculpt <3 Hoping that they release pictures of blank heads, and bodies, soon~ summer summer summer~ come at me ♪
So thanks to my grandmum I finally have Deuce. <3 She bought the Deuce/Cleo gift pack so I could finally get the doll I wanted and my little brother could have another MH doll to feel special (orsomething. hethrewafitwhenicamehomewithghoulia.) But he has Cleo now and enjoys playing with her. He's getting better at taking care of his toys. ...When they aren't headless action figures. (._. So now I have 7 dolls, and I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for the Clawd/Draculaura pack and Spectra~  Fun, fun~

now with more zombies

Ghoulia. Got her. yaaaaaay. thank you walsmart. (you horrible place, you.) Now I'm going to debox her and... and... idk. o_o

greek get-together

I doubt this would happen, because I'm so iffy with this sculpt, but I think that if I had a MNF Shiwoo I would base him off of Cassandra/Alexandra from Greek myth. Just so Tiresias has a friend. |D You can't have too many prophets. Nope. Especially when one is wrong all the time. B|

mattel doesn't owe you jack.

Dear kiddies sitting on their high horses, Shut up. Mattel doesn't 'owe' their sheeple anything. I mean, if they could find it in their corporate heart(s) to give of a calendar of releases, that'd be amazing. But either stfu or gtfo my hobby. ANYWAY. Spectra and Abbey pictures have been releases, and I'm going to buy them when they hit stores. New doll shopping = Done. ...Oh, and same for the Clawd/Draculaura giftset. (I might have to buy the Deuce/Cleo one, sometime x_x) And maybe a fashion pack. But that's it. :3c
I've been drawing a lot of sketches of (male) dolls lately. I've been looking into artists' dolls lately and I'm really liking the ones of (overly?) feminine girls with wide hips. And since you can only really get that [aesthetic?] from modding girls to boys, I've been drawing boys with wide hips. Personally, if I was aiming for androgyny then I can't see it. I do draw males pretty... girly. And I think I use to give them curves before, but not like this. I like it though. :3 Hopefully, I'll continue with this. I think I'll change up the hands/arms and feet/legs each picture, just to give this variety. And maybe make an accessories sheet. It'd be a sight to see them molded (and casted)~ >////< )b
