some of my heads are without a body

I can’t wait until after finals and Fanime so that I can finally sit down and properly play with my new dolls, so that I can make my Saint and Andrej mohair wigs, so that I can sew clothes for them, and so that I can hang out with Chobi and her incredible dolls too.

Now to hope that one of the artists I’d wanted to paint him will open up miraculously! ~~And that I’ll have the money for it…~~

He and my as-of-yet-unnamed Andrej/DT mix are going to be faceless for quite a while. At least Hammersmith has clothes that fit!

I got the perfect body for Black Metal Doll (idk what else to call it at the moment???), a Dollstown 18, and it’s really fantastic! The head is a bit too gray and in some lighting situations it is a bit more pink than the rest of the body, but in others the match is perfect. With the proper faceup and a wig the difference in skin tone will not be noticeable at all.

It will take me a long time to get him a faceup (I am holding out hope for a spot with SDink, which may take forever! Someday…), proper eyes and wig, but I can at least start out by making his wardrobe. I was planning on making him some band shirts today but found that I had no crappy black t shirts I could cut up for materials, so I guess I’ll have to go pick up a t shirt at Joann’s or something just for the material. (Would you believe that they don’t sell the proper weight of plain t shirt material? I have to buy the whole damned shirt!)

As a note of reference for myself:
- monique wig, style unknown in dark brown or black. 8-9” (long, straight, part down the middle. Or make my own long mohair wig)
- dollshe 14mm eyes in the lightest gray possible (light blue, medium gray, aluminum?)
