Dollieh Sanctuary

Does indulging in writing fanfiction count?

Otherwise still working on those masks, and redoing/doing several face-ups, though the great British summer really isn't cooperating!

I'm currently working on a 1/6 scale head to put on a Phicen body. He had moulded hair, which I didn't want so I've sanded him bald, and that meant reconstructing partially hidden ears! But hopefully I will get to make a wig soon!

And like Vetinari, I too am suffering the British summer. Waiting for days when I can sand or spray outdoors!

My first doll project in a while. I crocheted a wig cap and hooked in hair for my Orient Doll Tae, Girard.

@Richila: Your Girard looks so handsome with this wig! Really good job!

My OD Il is jealous he doesn't have any hair.

Thank you!

Girard was bald for far too long. One of the cats chewed up his first wig and I gave away his temp wig in March.

Well - now that I'm allowed, just participated in the DOA Triathlon, didn't do as well as I'd hoped this time around to be honest, but I was competing for the fun of it given how bad my photography is, which seems to be half the challenge with this sort of online contest! And it meant that I finally managed to dig up the correct pattern for the next project I'm going to be working on - Mr Bowie's Earthling era Union Jack frockcoat! (I'll post photos tomorrow, my laptop is overheating I'm afraid!)

Oh and my other project - anyone got any suggestions for a bjd sculpt preferably on the larger side that has similar bone structure to Pavi Largo/Handsome Jack (Warning if you google Pavi Largo the character design is fairly gruesome!) I've gotten my hands on a mini-Handsome Jack mask that's more or less bjd sized and it's totally making me want to add in some of the fringes-of-society/dark underbelly of the glamourous cyborg characters from the dystopia my BJDs inhabit into the mix for my 1/3 scale gang.

Incredible necro-bump!

Just realised I never showed you guys that slightly epic-project I was doing - this is really just a self-funding hobby rather than an epic money making plan, however I know there are a few other Labyrinth fans on here so, here's-some-things-whot-I-made:

Hope you guys think they're cool! Eventually I kinda hope to up the ante a wee bit on the design/materials side of things, but for now I'm happy enough with them - and have even had a few sales.

Aw! Thank you! That means a great deal coming from someone as ridiculously awesome at this kind of thing as yourself.

(The upcoming batch includes a peacock that I'm rather proud of... Though I am debating with myself whether more feathers are possible)
