Up to lately

Oh hi! This week hasn’t been a very good one, the first I was sick and now both boys have caught the same bug :( But I have some new things for the resin folks, no worries!

Bunny headdress

First your daily dose of “DERP?”. I visited an Asian kiosk the other day and lo and behold, they were also selling various cabochon to glue on your mobile phones. I bought the mirror and comb set and various roses, skulls and cakes to use on doll jewelry! They were not terribly cheap but I’m a sucker for cute miniature stuff so it’s all good. The bunny headdress is a new design and I’m planning to make a few for sale later :3

Circus twins (photoshoot)

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?

Soft white secrets

Dollga <3

I tell you, it’s impossible to get a bad shot of this girl <3 I got her a new Dollga wig to be her travel/meetup wig. Snow white is such a pretty colour and I really hope Dollga will release it as a standard colour – or at least a preorder of it like they’ve done before with special colours. Or maybe I do not since I’ll sure go bankrupt, there are so many Dollga wigs I’d love to own for her and the only thing that has stopped me before is the fact that her hair colour is platinum or white.

Not sure of the CIG eyes I got…they do not sit very well. I wonder if they’re too small or what, I’ll first try to bevel her eyes some and if that doesn’t work, something new.

I also took a photo of her current undergarments, but that’s behind the cut because it might be slightly adult material ->

A tiny guest

Madeleine

While her owner is away for a while, Madeleine came to visit Enne. Together they’re saying ‘derp’ a lot, pulling Vaakku and eating cupcakes, and they seem to have a great time togther. Who knows what adventures they will have when she’s here?

Even the little ones need style!

Yup, that’s true. I promised to take photos of the upcoming Lati Yellow/Pukifee-sized clothing collection of my friend – and I did! Here are some sneak preview pictures of a good stuff to come :3

Armed and dangerous!

Bear hat

…photography-wise, that is. Because I have the best friends ever, I also have even more tapestry rolls and some floor materials <3 I tried one of the plastic floor mat pieces I got and gotta say I like the result very much. I think it's time I finally visit some hardware stores and bought some bigger pieces, because these things work like a charm and look very good. Too bad that all the hardware stores are located quite far, but I already have plans to visit one this weekend on my way to a friend's party :3

And yes, I'm even more armed now because I will go and pick something up this Thursday. It's something quite big and what I've been wanting for a while now. Yes, it's a new camera body :D Canon EOS 20D with a recently revampted shutter and all, for a great price. My 350D is getting old, the shutter count is something close to 50K, the viewfinder has some issues...and if you can get a better camera body at the price of repairing the little one - sorry, little one, you lose this time :P I'm excited to try the new camera out, I'm really curious to see if I can get even better results and try out new things <3 Happy!

Urgh, I have so many things to do...

p.s. All lovers of Victorian/steampunk/alternative clothing, I recommend you The Secret of Moonacre! The plot is…well, let’s not talk about the plot because it’s really terrible. But the costumes, I tell you! We screamed aloud at them, because they were so utterly fantastic :D If you watch it, just concentrate on the setting and the costumes…

Fleamarkets and little crafts

Fleamarket findings

I visited a fleamarket with Kihapuu and found lots of excellent stuff. The next time I’ll have more cash! But I pictured some of my discoveries: my favourite one was a miniature glass globe for them dollies. I had a similar, blue one which was a souvenir from my hubby to me. I just broke it ;_; The same seller had a fantastic birdcage with mechanical bird in it, but 50 euros…oh well, I saw something similar on Ebay selling over 2000 dollars :D Bit too much for a doll prop! We also found a MSD-sized doll park bench which at least I gave forward since I have limited space and my MSDs don’t really need one.

I also got some pretty fluffy mohair yarn which makes excellent bear hats (that’s one WIP on Enne’s head), bracelet that I broke apart for cheap glass beads and not pictured, Yashica’s film camera. I thought I might be able to remove its lense and use it on my Canon, but that’s not possible :P Oh well, it was cheap as what and now I at least have one working film camera if I feel like shooting on film. There was also a seller selling Russian/CCR memorabilia and Zenit cameras, I of course checked what kind of lenses they had ;3 Too bad they all had the same Helios lense I already own, but I’ll keep looking!

Awww, now I itch to go for an another hunt, I love fleamarkets and this one held in Helsinki’s ice hall will probably become my favourite :3 Luckily they will held more fleamarkets at the end of February <3

Today I took pictures of some stuff I’ve been making lately, they’ll be behind the cut!
