Although this wig is slightly big the style and color are a lot better than Frei's tinybear wig.
I'll post these quickly since its an hour till I have to get ready for work.
I might be finding another way to post pictures soon though. Vox makes my thumbnails VERY low quality which kind of defeats the purpose of using vox for a photo-log. Its still much easier to add media than livejournal to create media-rich posts but what's more important? Quality or ease of use? Also I hate the fact that I need to put a title on all my images! ;~;
I finally got around to getting a livejournal account set up for those who don't want to join vox but want to read my weblog all the same. From now on I will cross post everything from here onto my livejournal account Heimdalalr, which name coincides with this weblog which is Götterdämmerung, which is the german word for Ragnarok, the twilight of the gods,or in otherwords the time the world comes to an end.
And more about Heimdalalr, he is called the White God. He is great
and holy; nine maids, all sisters, bore him for a son. He is also
called Hallinskídi (a ram) and Gullintanni (golden teeth); his teeth were of gold, and
his horse is called Gold-top. He dwells in the place called
Himinbjörg,(heaven-fell) hard by Bifröst: he is the warder of the gods, and sits
there by heaven's end to guard the bridge from the Hill-Giants. He
needs less sleep than a bird; he sees equally well night and day a
hundred leagues from him, and hears how grass grows on the earth or
wool on sheep, and everything that has a louder sound. He has that
trumpet which is called Gjallar-Horn, and its blast is heard throughout
all worlds.
(the blurb about him was taken from Snorri Sturluson's Prose Edda)
Almost all of my dolls have a name with a Norse mythology reference, save for Gonbe (Pipos Baha, named after a character in the anime "One Piece"), Jomi (Aeon Flux of Dive's Seimei, who is named after an anime character "Terra e") and Aish (U-noa Quluts 1.5 Sist) named after Aishwarya Rai, a famous Bollywood actress).
So add away~ comment away~ and hopefully I'll post away~ ^^;;
Show us something you own that is from a different country.

This is too easy.. all my dolls are from Japan or Korea.
I feel as if my doll photography has gotten worse. It is mostly because I rush it, which is mostly the fault that I've been working closing shifts in 5 days in a row marathons. My first off day I end up wasting by sleeping in all day, the next off day I end up having a few hours of fun just to have to get into that grind again of having to get ready for work the next day. Its hard to go to sleep as soon as I get home, and I am definately not an early bird. Seems like all I do is sleep and work...
I can also attribute it to the fact that only 2 of my dolls have a fully completed faceup. Gonbe and Esa.
Gonbe only has a few props, he's tiny and he's stark white. He comes out washed out in most of my photos. I have no idea how to properly take digital photos of something that is white without having to use a plain white bg for the contrast to not wash him out. I need to look up some photography pointers or start using my film camera.
Esa, I've taken plenty of pics of her, she has more pictures on this log than any other doll. She was on my header for a while and probably will go back on there since this layout is pretty but I wish I could customize it further. Also she isn't very versatile, even though she's awfully pretty. She also doesn't have her own wig or eyes, and I don't really have much to choose from in that department since I'm always rushing to save up for a preorder or layaway and can't take my time with doll purchases. I did manage to buy 2 pairs of eyes and a msd sized wig in the last 48 hours though so hopefully I can remedy at least that much.
Together... well they don't look so hot lol.
I'm not going to try to get more time off until I have enough for the Unoa Zero. I will be taking the 9th of next month off for my 2 month anniversary with the boy... which will be spent going to Ann Arbor to spend money on cute Japanese things, spending his money not mine of course,lol. I'll probably look for some re-ment for gonbe, or anything to scale with my dolls since as much as i love cute san-x stationary and japanese snacks I can't forget about my babies.
I try to stay away from the DOA Debate subforum since people get pretty heated and snappy about somethings even when it starts off as a light-hearted discussion.. but someone asked if dolls were to make up for something in your personal life... and I've been thinking very hard about it. I'll post my conclusion when I come up with one I guess.
I got some new doll clothes today! I ordered them from Aya22 on DOD from this thread. The clothes are made by her friend Airee from what I understand. I'll probably buy some more from hoodies from there, I don't like the skull and crossbones fabric but there is still some cute fabrics I want them to make my dolls clothes in.
They were made for u-noa size But I had to try the hoodie out on my baha. Its obviously oversized but it made for some cute pictures. Although I doubt you could ever go wrong with a baha!
I still have that mio shirt i order in the group order months ago. mio must really be backed up with her orders! I almost keep forgetting that I still haven't gotten it yet. I'm starting to save for another impossible doll, the U-Noa Quluts Zero... meaning I'll have to start buying SD sized clothes as well soon, well that depends if I actually can manage to get one. If I don't U-noa Cream or Mocha, or a 43cm Narae are my backup plans. At least they'd still be able to wear all the u-noa 1.5 clothes I own!
I took Gonbe (Pipos Baha) with me this past weekend when I went to the Mariott hotel in Troy, MI for a family reunion. I only got a few snaps of him before my camera died, and they are horribly blurry but still cute.
