Dollightfully Devoured

The Obitsuroid tutorials I find tend to include some sort of subtractive modifications, or items that aren't readily available to me (like the Revoltech joints). So here's a list of Obitsuroid examples that simulate the Nendoroid neck/head connector using items like foam, plastic, and cardboard: EVA foam - @reloaded_re (Twitter) EVA foam connector - sadlll (blog.naver) Paper & EVA foam - fnsdpa (blog.naver) (!Caution: The paper tag wears easily, so they switched to EVA foam) Plastic & thick cardboard - polarondol (tistory)

I can feel myself getting in too deep, but I want to be organized about it. (I also blame a buddy of mine, who's going full steam ahead in nendoroid collecting and getting a bunch of re-ments and house/room kits.) So I made a list of accessories (clothes, items, etc.) that work with Cu-Poche, here . It's in a similar format as the Nendoroid one in the English Facebook group -- listing what's exactly to scale, off scale, and then additional bits. My main contribution to the list is the Monster High & Nendoroid mention! Here are some pictures of the Cu-poche bodies with MH items, and Gourai wearing Nendoroid bunny ears: I hope this list is helpful! 

I posted    some pictures on Instagram of my doll/figure project of the day: a cu-poche & nendoroid hybrid. (I don't see a lot of people use the term 'cuporoid' / 「キューポろいど」 (also! 「キュポろいど」  or 「きゅぽろいど」), unlike 'obitsuroid' /「オビツろいど」 , but it does yield results!) The mod itself is pretty easy to do, here are the tutorials I used as reference: rikunofotogalarie | キューポッシュえくすとら半袖体操服ボディｘねんどろいどヘッド Hobby Search Blog | 着せかえシリーズ第1弾「キューポッシュえくすとら スクール水着ボディ」で遊ぼう！ panda180 | How to make Cu-Poche - Nendoroid joint When it came to separating the joints, I used an X-Acto Knife to initially get a space between them, then either used a small flat head screwdriver or my fingers to gently pull them apart. Once I had them separated, I put them with their opposites. (The nendoroid joint (on the left) is from Nishinoya Yuu, while the cu-poche joint (on the right) is from Gourai.) I'm assuming one of the neck joints has been updated since the tutorials have bee...

I have that feeling of buyers' regret where you want to make the most of what you purchased (while also being bummed out that your purchase ruined your chance of getting something else, but what can you do ?) So I spent my yesterday figuring out this figma / nendoroid + picco neemo hybrid business. I brought out my Black Gold Saw figma (who matches the Picco body better than Sonico), my custom (of sorts) nendoroid, and of course the Picco Neemo S body and outfit. Going off of Hobby Search's blog post , I knew that figma heads would need no modification to be on the Picco body, while nendoroid heads were better suited for the Picco Neemo D body (but I wanted to see this combo anyway). But I didn't take figma face shapes into account...  Her head is pretty slim? and looks smaller on the body. I did put my Killua figma head on the body (no pictures) and while his head is wider and looks a bit better, there's an awkward gap around the base of the head/neck a...

I've been sewing outfits for the past two days, and I'm so over it, pfft. I made clothes for Dez (B&G Doll Eli-Imp) and Rumore (Soom Bygg). They both have hooves, so my main priority was to make clothes that could fit or go around them. This is the first time I've changed Dez out of his original outfit. I've always had an idea of what I wanted him to wear, but never got anything for it. There are... A LOT of issues with the clothes, lmao. But that's what I get for doing things quick and dirty. 😅 . . #dollstagram #bjd #balljointeddoll #boyandgirldoll #bandgdoll #bgeliimp A post shared by Enski (@token.enski) on Jul 31, 2017 at 7:00pm PDT With Dez's outfit, I tried to take the easy way out with the top, but ended up sewing the sleeves closed on the top instead of the bottom. I did only have to hem the collar and sew the sleeves together, though, so I still call it a win, haha. And the pants ended up a bit too snug on one leg (this is what I g...

I was looking at Culur Theory's recent An face-up and fell in love? lol, She looks ready to sass someone to the moon and back, and I'm here for it. It made me look at Ery again, because I had made super vague plans to use it for one of my characters. But as I was looking, I remembered a design I bought ages ago and started wondering if Ery would be a good fit for him. And then I spent an evening doodling. |D;; Overall I think Ery would work for him? And then  there's Groov's outfit, but that's for future me with Ery to figure out.

I'm very in love with obitsuroids (Obitsu + Nendoroid hybrids) and I've been tossing around and settling on ideas for... two months, now? But now I can say that I am much closer to getting an obitsuroid of my own! Testing out a possible obitsuroid idea... . . #nendoroid #bnha #midoriyaizuku A post shared by Enski (@token.enski) on Jun 4, 2017 at 4:19pm PDT The face is Midoriya Izuku from 'My Hero Academia' and the hair I'm planning to use is from Nishinoya Yuu (Haikyuu!!). Plus the face mask I took from an Osomatsu-san nendo and the nendoroid more rabbit ears, the character is pretty set. The only thing I'm missing is a body (and clothes), but hopefully I can get those sooner than later! (I'm also thinking of a name for them? It would be sort of weird to call them Deku — it's his face but it's not really him — so maybe an idea will come to me.) And today, I finished modding some Obitsu hands to fit on Marco. He has a PureNeemo XS...

I'm not too big on vinyl dolls, but I've started working on plans for a Smart Doll Harmony & (Cocoa) Eiji! I've been keeping up with Smart Doll for awhile now, and I originally put Chitose (and Eiji) on my wishlist, but since Chitose didn't get a height change, I'm gonna love them from afar, haha! Eiji is still kind of on there. Honestly, I'm not too into his default looks, but thank goodness for mods. I would have put Chitose back on my wishlist and waited for her Tea or Cocoa versions, but with the character I'm working with, I need someone not pout-y. (Which is a shame because I love Chitose's pout!!) So that's how Harmony makes my list. And we recently got images for Eiji in Cocoa and he looks amazing and I'm weak willed . So, the characters these two are going to be are actually my netbook, Turnip, and tablet, Percival; respectively. What I want to do is use Harmony as a Miraicon (Mirai + Computer) and use my netbook as the display ...

I have been keeping busy for the past couple of weeks! I (mostly) finished outfits for Tiresias and Rich , added to Topher 's outfit, and have started re-working Ares' (formerly 'Pompeyo') character. I figured that I'd rather have my MNFs (minus two on the wish list) be based on well known (?) Greek figures. Ares was originally based on Tiresias' attendant that would get a small mention in stories like Oedipus and Antigone, but his character has been in need of a rub-a-dub for a good while, and I feel like he shares enough general similarities with the god that he could share his name - and maybe it'll help me explore his character more. (I've also been looking at MNF Sia but that's something I can't (financially) touch, haha. But I totally have a character Poseidon waiting for them.) I'm hoping that this week I get a little something featuring these MNFs written, and maybe make a pair of glasses. I think Rich would look good in glass...

It's way late to be saying 'Happy New Year,' but , you know . Since my last post, I finished a new outfit for Shishino (aka my little lion son)! The finishes are wonky but I like how it all turned out. Somewhat more recently, I sewed some random, no-pattern p ieces for Tiresia s. He seem ed to like the circle dress I made ('cause he wasn't as kicky in at compared to t he other two things I made, lol) so I' ve been drawing out a mori girl/mori kei styled outfit for him. I'll probably have to go fabric shopping , since I doubt I own any old clothes that would work for the st yle, pfft. I may also get a new doll head. I really shouldn't , but it might happen. Still gotta hear back from the seller! Here's to new, exciting things in the next post!  

aka What I've been calling my new Azone x Kinoko Juice Kikipop boy! ugly phone pic aside I'm really glad to have him home. His head isn't wobbly and his face up is fine, but he does have slightly weak knees, and the holes in his additional hands are too small for the hand peg (I barely got one hand on. The other hand still has some plastic in it, so I can't even try to fit the hand on the peg). But I can look passed those. His wig was fairly easy to ease off. There wasn't a lot of glue, so slow tugging got it off fine. His current wig is a Luts 'Commander of Blue Knights' Abadon wig, that was supposed to go to Eddy but ~wig plans changed~ so I've been holding on to it for a long while, haha. It's about 8-9in, which is a bit big, but it works. (Others find 7-8in a better fit.) like the rest of my dolls I gotta figure out an outfit for him (something rough, tough, and royal), but thankfully he's fully clothed!!

So I can totally add twist gel to Tibetan lamb fur to make neat little twists. I would not want to twist a full wig, but at least I know it's a thing I can do. I added a twist to Rich's wig, so they've got one nice, thin twist that curls a bit at the end. The next wig I have to work on is Pompeyo (Does he need a name change? I have a feeling I should change it *shrugs*), which will be interesting since I want it short and I've never taken scissors to any wig. I'll probably have to buy those little poster strips to replace the velcro that (kind of barely) holds on to my dolls' wigs. Those feel like they would be neater to work with, anyway. I will also need to get Rich eyes, soon, because them not having eyes bothers me. It's not bad but I want them to have eyes ASAP. I'll probably get a pair after this Taobao GO I'm in. I paid for 3 pairs of MSD shoes (wanted to get 4 but these sandals I wanted for Tiresias would've held back other orders) ...

Incoming doll, incoming Tibetan lamb fur, would have incoming shoes, but sliMSDs are such a pain to shop around for (Taobao came up with nothing reasonably sized, so eBay is sort of my only option (I know there's Etsy, but I want too much from too many Etsy stores, lol). I'm really digging the '17" Tonner Matt' shoes even though they're kind of big-ish. I get very particular about doll shoes, apparently). In the mean time, I'm going to be camping out on DreamSelfy and getting clothing ideas. And maybe sometime this week I'll actually start sewing? (I say this, but will it ever actually happen?) I kind of have to do some room cleaning, so if I can unearth my fabric and sewing tools, then I can make a mess of my living room - but at least I'll be doing something productive. Honestly, I can't wait to start using the lamb fur (Is it the same as mohair, or is mohair different?) I really like making wigs for my dolls, since I feel decent at it. ;P ...

Pictures are up on the Flickr and Tumblr, thank the gods. Some prompts were more difficult than others, but it's whatever. Got stuff done. 'Mail' was fun to do, because Topher (Soom Afi) was more mouthy than usual to Dez (B&G Eli-Imp). Topher's a sweet kid, but just bittersweet to Dez (because of silly back story reasons). This was also the first time I mentioned one of the adults/older characters from their doll-verse? (I think.) Vergil 'Venus' Adrom (Crobidoll Mikhail) is the guy that Dez and Topher came from, basically. Now this reminds me that one the dolls I wanted for Topher's adopted parents is going to be discontinued soon. I wanted one of his dads to be a DollZone Floy. ohwell. I tried my best to not go outside for 'Spring' or 'Green,' and I succeeded. I really wanted to use the word 'greenhorn' for 'Green,' but that would've required props for Hephaestus (MNF Chloe) that I don't have and didn't f...

I haven't taken pictures for some weeks. :/ I got stuck on one of the prompts ('Math') and my drive took a nosedive. My birthday is coming up, so maybe I should take a bunch of pictures as one of many gifts to myself. I also haven't been making time to write about each prompt/shoot, but that's because I take some of the photos at godawful hours, and I don't want to make time to write. :") Lately I've been thinking (more) about getting Doll Chateau dolls. I added Douglas to my wish list  (My wish list is really becoming a list of doll "face claims" for characters in stories I'll hardly/never write) , and I started making plans to dye Agatha, Charles, and Douglas for characters (since they're part of Marco's story, and needed to be fleshed out). I was also wanting the Douglas sculpt as a doll that I could dress in anything (which ties in with their character), because I have this "thing" about wanting to have a, as I c...

I thought I gave myself a decent list on how to spend my refund, but I forgot that I'm me, and I'm very, very good at blowing money when I have it. I also just remembered that I have 30$ in my wallet. Huh. anyway. I pre-ordered an Azone x Kinoko Juice Hello! KikiPop. That was on the decent to-buy list. I am ready to finally have my own Kinoko Juice doll, especially if that means dropping 200$ versus 900$. I've been looking at Isul Hednar, who I already have plans for with Gracey, my Dal Tezca. Pluuus, I found out you can give Dal Isul's body? So if I got a Hednar (who's name'll be Cadell) then I'm also going to get an Isul body for Gracey, because that Obitsu body with the mod... It's not doing it for me. (Gracey is super top heavy.) I could consider getting him now, but... I did add another doll to the decent to-buy list. Victorian Winter dolls released a picture of a succubus they were making, which might become a real thing soon? I don't rea...

I don't really have much to post about for this one! (Kinda pressed for time, since I have homework...) Since I don't have any dolls that are a romantic couple, my next best option was to go for family, so Ricky Show and Guhn got to be in pictures again. I should really spend some time on developing them, and their family. The only thing I know is that they're brothers and they most likely live together. They're the only one in my group of YoSDs that don't have some sort of origin. They're just there! Maybe one day I'll work on their characters more which is something I tell myself too often about a lot of my OCs.

I thought I was going to have a difficult time with this prompt, but it turned out being really fun to do! Especially since PukiFee have magnetic feet. :")

Dear Self, if you're really set on taking pictures with day light, then don't attempt taking pictures after 3pm. It's not worth it. Thankfully, the lights in your kitchen are decent. ugh, I planned to do too much today. But let's talk about dolls. This week I took pictures of Eddy Victin (hybrid Angel of Dream Hao on Demon Garden body) and his robot, Dorian (Batchix Mini-Machina Delta). They were very good (slightly planned) impulse buys that I was able to put into a dollverse I really, really enjoy (that I hope to get back into writing for, at some time). Originally when I bought Eddy, his character was supposed to be a model? I think. But I scrapped that and put him into this story where he's basically a robotics student. Still super shy, but now he knows a thing or two about technology. (The 'verse, itself, isn't necessarily modern. It's like a mix of magic and steampunk - at least, whenever I think of it, everything is in that "steamp...
