I got my unoa sist faceplate back from Gen today. Normally I'd be spamming you all with photos but I unfortunately don't have the wig I ordered for her over a month ago in a LeeKe group order and nothing here suites her at all. I'll post the preview pictures I got before she was shipped back to me however. I might try to take photos anyway depending on when I get the mermaid skirt and black and white one piece I ordered from Tanya Style (since I think the black dress would look perfect on her.
I should be sending Jomi (aeon flux of dive's seimei head) off to her shortly but I need to take pics of his old faceup since I want the same type of look for him. His current faceup is done by Sairin, and while ideally it should've never been touched.. the glue that held his eyelashes on ruined the underlashes, and the paint used on his lips were staining the resin (not to mention in a hideous color). Tried to remedy the lips myself but I just couldn't get the color I wanted right. I can use an airbrush, and it would've been easy if I got the color I wanted right the first time. The more I had to wipe it off the worse the original faceup got since the blushing, especially on the face was everywhere. Now he's lipless and everything else is still in tact for the most part but I rather not mess with him anymore. I can't find Mr. Super Clear anywhere and while I do have Mr. top coat around, it doesn't have the tooth MSC has and I really need that to work with.
I can imagine how upset some people (with the collectors mindset) could possibly be since I altered a Sairin faceup, but I'm this particular Seimei's 4th owner (that I know of), and he's not going anywhere. I probably killed his value but his head alone cost more than I paid second-hand fees for my complete L-bi and I figure I should be happy with him.
I probably won't post him in all his lipless glory until I get the after pics and do a whole comparison thing and all. I really need to get him some good permanent eyes before long. His eyewells will not hold eyes in for anything. The eyes are always constantly falling into the back of his head no matter how much putty you use. When I get some good ones they're getting hot-glued in.
Also I decided to do NaNoWriMo this year, I wanted to do it last year but it was half-way through November when I got the urge so I deceided not to. I'll be writing about the characters/story behind my SD sized dolls (Ivoine my kill-u sp and Jomi), it'll be norse mythology inspired, just like most of my dolls' names and hopefully writing 1,667 words a day for the whole of next month won't kill me. This month I'm going to try to get an outline done to make things easier on myself.
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~ ^^;;
I avoided posting in the save/wait thread at DOA about my progress or lack there of, its easier to be in there supporting other people when you're not rushing to meet a deadline (the deadline for payment of the u-noa preorder is the 16th, Japan time).
I can't wait till the kit gets here, I feel like I can't do any photostories since all my dolls are of different sizes or they share bodies with other dolls. Ivoine and Jomi are SD sized, Ivoine (kill-u sp) is tanned and Jomi (seimei) is beauty white, so Jomi can't share Ivoine's tanned body and I have to get him his own. I do try to take pictures of Ivoine along with the u-noa (as the picture shows), but while standing up, they only come up to his waist and that looks horrible. Gonbe (pipos baha) is a tiny, so he'll probably come up to the waist/chest of the u-noa, but since he's a cat that will look ok. Until I get Gonbe, I only have 2 full dolls and 5 floating heads at home. I think its very possible I'll try to get another doll after Gonbe, and before Esa's body and default faceplate (not just a sleepy/orgasmic girl anymore!) get here. Most likely a 43cm Narae, since I was planning on getting one before the u-noa bug bit me. She'll be very expensive... seeing as I'm going to order the doll, classic faceplate (with a faceup by Kim Kyu Yuen, which will be 100+ extra), then another blank head, some wigs, and probably some clothes if there are any new tanya style clothes I like (and I'm a sucker for her style).
All my dolls still need wigs and eyes though, permanent ones. And option hands, too. This hobby is so expensive...
Show us a minor indulgence.
