A spontaneous idea for today: instead of packing up for a short weekend trip (shhh), let’s take doll photos, yay! Too bad that I ran out of light…

I chose the twins because I just adore them to little pieces. It’s funny, they’ve been with me for four years and I’m only now starting to realize how I want them to be and perfecting their characters and appearances. They’ve changed so much, but their basic natures have remained – Aegis is the noisy, crazy little monkey and Halla is quiet, stern and mysterious. I think they finally told their story to me, and this is good. For a while, that is, I have a bad habit of disliking my old ideas and always coming up with new, better ones. Oh well, I do this for fun and everything is allowed in my dream worlds

Enough of the words! Let’s look at the pictures!

Whee, some joint projects for a change! I visited friend’s yesterday, and here’s the result of our photoshoot together.

Bane is Luts Senior Delf Regen hybrid, owned by Illves.
Aegis is mine, of course ;3

We styled our own dolls and did the setup and stuff together. Hopefully you’ll like the pictures <3

This must be my most random post title ever…

But Enne got herself some supercute bear shoes from Freshvanilla on Etsy <3 She’s so precious!

It’s been ages since I photographed my MSD duo, and since they both have new eyes, wigs and Aegis has a new face…well, see it for yourself ;3 What do you think?

Yes, I still own it, it’s just film camera and shooting on film and developing them is expensive and bothersome…I felt bad for it for just colleting dust, so I thought to at least take out its lense and try to get it work with my Canon EOS. An adapter from Ebay did the trick, although it was pain in the butt first to get it off. I thought I ruined my camera for the good -_-; Oh well, now I know how it’s done!

Here are some test pictures I took with it! The lense is called Helios 44-2, all the way from the USSR. Do you think these look different from my usual photography?

I don’t it like it when folks photograph their dolls with all kinds of junk in the background…and here I did it myself. Oh well.

Oh look who’s back <3 Jesmoth did him a new faceup and some moddings, and the result is…well, it’s Aegis all the way. I love his boyish little smirk, he looks a little bit otherwordly but just the right amount. He still has all the features I like about Ami sculpt like very round head, big eyes, small mouth and little button nose, but now he looks more like a loud little ADHD rascal he is meant to be. I think he stole those green glass eyes, so Halla will get new ones. I think I also know now what I want with Halla’s style, so the twins are most definitely back ;3

Hey, remember those alpaca yarns? I already managed to knit the first results during weekend’s visit to homehome.

This is just a test for some new decorations, do note how well I hide the fact that Aegis’ faceup is in terrible shape. I hope to be able to toss his head soon to a friend for a new one!

The rest of recent commissions/crafts are after the cut because there are many!

(I updated my shop, whee.)

Feh, I have a feeling my dolly hobby will take a slightly slower pace now. Uncle K is away for a new faceup, Meital needs one + some customization so she’s currently just hanging there. I also sold my Heliot head and bought him a new one ;3 It was an easy decision after all, I must admit that I just don’t like Soom’s faces and his huge elf ears were not good for his character. And I found a better head sculpt, the one that really said “oh boy, I’ll be a good Mirwaise. BUY ME.”

It also disturbed me a little bit that when people looked at my Heliot, they just saw OMG!HELIOT and not Mirwaise ^^; Okay, I just suck at explaining this, but I’ll try: there is such a huge hype around Soom monthlies that people just see the fancy sculpt and not the doll/character underneath. I didn’t sculpt Heliot but I made Mirwaise, and I’ll rather be complimented over creating a good character and styling him well instead over purchasing a wanted doll. Does this make any sense?

Anyhoo, we’ll see what comes of this “new” Mirwaise, I have high hopes for him.

And now when the “main” characters are on break, I’ve had the chance to bond with those of my dolls who do not get so much attention. I made a shirt for Huurre (my D.Lishe boy, do you even remember that I own him? ) and bought stuff for Halla, including a new wig. I think I need to play with my MSDs today.

Aka some of my recent knittings, all these are commissions from friends. Phew, it’s funny though, no matter how much I knit, I still have two big plastic bags of yarns. Why it never ends? And why do I keep buying more? *_*

Collars decorated with buttons and chains, easy and simple to do!

Yup, little Ami spam, I like to document all my sewings so I can easily show ‘em around :3 I got a little commission…

…for a simple white t-shirt. I killed my own old shirt, recycling at its best?
