Briar's Evolution Pics

Briar was the only doll I ever attempted a faceup on. She came to me blank and I was excited. I neglected one fact. I'd never worked in 3D media before. Never. I gave her perhaps four faceups (and multiple attempts for each one) before I got too frustrated with it all.
She has a serious face, and a very serious pout, so she was quickly quoting Shakespeare as Rosslyn's Nikos was getting his faun legs. She hated that fluff ball dandelion wig and pink dress, but for awhile, all I had for her was borrowed clothes and wigs. Soon, she borrowed a different wig and it was better.
I was making something for Khorae and when I turned around, Briar decided to have an elf-and-the-cobbler moment and do my sewing. So cute! I liked the red wig, but it wasn't her. The bangs were right, but that was all. Finally, we (Rosslyn, me, Briar, and Rosslyn's Pip) went shopping for something to make a wig out of.
Pip: Wheee! We's goin' on a car ried to da fabrik storr!
Briar: I's gonna be sick...
Briar: So...soft!
Pip: Can has...pusseewillow wig?
Briar: ......No.
Briar: I's worth more'n 5 cents. You can has button 'stead.
Needless to say, we did not find the material in the button bin. We did find it, though, and this is the final result! Also, at this point, I'd finally given her over to Rosslyn for a face. Such a little lady!
My little pouty girl. I love her so. Pukis make me happy!

The Cloaks Are Finished!

The cloaks I mentioned in the previous post are completely finished and posted on the DoA forums. I loved the pics taken. They make me wish I had a Fairyland Littlefee at home to wear them. So cute! Here are Rosslyn's dolls Stella and Scythe modeling the various cloaks: Overall, I'm very pleased with how they came out! If you would like to purchase one, go here .

Progress on the Modifications

I do not have pictures at this time, but that will hopefully change soon. Khorae's modifications are mostly complete now and her posing ability is amazing, especially compared to what it once was. She can sit up straight without any support--and did so for two days straight! She can even cross her legs and hold that pose as well. Her new sleeping head has had the lips parted further for a more natural sleeping look, and the eyes have been closed with epoxy sculpt. The nose has also been filed down to match her awake head, and the ears pierced. I'll go into more detail when I do finally have photos. Unfortunately, though, she's still blank, so hopefully we can get her blushed and faceupped soon, before the autumn weather changes to something too damp to work with.

I Live! Dollies Live, Too!

I haven't forgotten about my blog, I promise. My classes have begun to kick my butt, so my free time is eaten up by homework and tests and studying. However, I do have good news on the dolly front. Today, Khorae was completely pulled apart at Rosslyn's place and wiped clean. Faceup included. She's about to undergo serious modifications (beyond the nosejob we've already given her). Rosslyn is going to add posing capabilities to Khorae's torso and legs, so that she can properly sit up, and stand. Also, Rosslyn mentioned that she felt she was better and more experienced at faceups now, so Khorae needed a more natural look while still being manicured. Think manicured in the Middle Ages. Also, Khorae will be getting a second head, so she'll have a sleeping face as well as her awake one, and we also have a second pair of hands we hope to boil and then curve the resin into a shape more conducive to holding something. She should be more versatile once she's comple...
