There’s a more or less even distribution of vinyl and resin in my collection. I really don’t find that one material is better or worse than the other, just different. Each has it’s pros and cons, like everything else in life… To me, each one is very special. ^___^

Anyway, here’s a funny little shot of seven Hujoos waiting for their eyelashes to be applied. ^.~

 
 
 
 
 
When I get a chance, I’ll scan some more of the doodles I’ve been doing. There’s one cute sketch of Omi and Nanashi. Wah! They are too cute!!! ^___^

Yar! Getting a little more creative with the word balloons. The repeated overlapping bit there took a bit of figuring out… but teh Kiki was determined to get them right. I just hope that the text isn’t confusing with how it’s laid out.

Also, we’re starting to see our new little buddy. Only problem is that Omi is getting insistent on MAILING HIM BACK!!! Sheesh.

Here is the sketch that is sitting smack-dab in the middle of my class notes.

 
 
 
 
 
In other news, I ordered a new 16gb card for my camera since my 8gb card got lost in the move. The seller I bought from this time on ebay looks loads more legit than the last one I tried to buy from. Guess this goes to show me to take a closer look at feed-back when purchasing. At least I was able to open a paypal dispute to get my money back from the first guy. Anyway, YAY for new card!!! ^__^

Here’s some photos of a pattern that I’m currently working on. I know that it looks really simple, and that it’s just a lame fitted shirt… but still, this is the FOURTH one of these shirts that I’ve sewn while mucking around with the pattern. Next version will actually have a collar attached to it.

 
 
 
 
 
The pattern for that shirt is gonna be in the book. I’m going to do a few variations on it. Strange as it sounds, one of the variations is going to be a ‘body-suit’, like the ones that were popular back in the 90’s? That way his shirt will stay tucked in without any problems! XD

Something thing that dawned on me; not everyone is as insane as I am. I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t mind some extra work in getting a BJD dressed. Other more sane people probable won’t want to mess around with removing heads to get the clothing on. Because of this, most shirt patterns will have to have two versions of the back; one where it opens completely to allow for easy dressing, and a closed version that requires some doll disassembly for the garment to be put on.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what other kinds of things they’d like to see show up in the pattern book? ^___^

Mystery box revealed! Wait, another DOLL?! Just like OMI?! Is she suicidal? Though… where would you even get a BJD as mean-spirited as Omi.

Post-its FTW!!!!

At least this time there is OMG.. ART of some variety to show I’m not really updating today. Uhm, maybe I shouldn’t be pleased about that? XD

The other thing that I did was make sure there was at least one proper tension ring on each joint. He’d been missing one in his hips for the longest time, and consequently kept dropping his lower half. With luck, my tiny terror should be feeling loads better now.

 
 
 
 
 
…one of these days I have to make a nicer shirt for him. It’s not like I don’t have the patterns for one. The one he’s currently in was originally a mock-up version of a new pattern I was working on. Obviously, it worked, and twerpzilla refuses to give up the shirt.

Totally random. One of my friends suggested that I start compiling my insane patterns into a book. Pretty much, a clothing pattern book specific to 60cm, 55cm, and 50cm obitsus, with complete instructions and full-sized pattern pieces to be clipped out. Anyone else think this is a good idea? Not that it’d be done immediately, since I’m working on other stuff… but still, yay or nay?
