After a mass apartment cleaning Friday night and all day Saturday, we managed to have a Doll Meet at our place. It went great, then my moms car broke down and I spent the next two days driving her around, and coming down with a sinus infection or horrible cold or something. Thanks to cold medicine which takes my brain away, I couldn't manage to do anything at all all week....so now I'm behind on life.
During this week I had a lot of shippings and some arrivals however....Plus my copy of The Pale Emperor by Marilyn Manson - which I am now obsessed with.
Luts: long story short, I ordered, on a whim, their Plush SD body. XD It should be here in a day or so. I can't even wait for this lol
Etsy: My two clothes orders shipped and one should be here any day now.
Benedict should also ship today - at least that's what I was told. Still haven't gotten a notice yet. But yay!!
I was worried because I thought he'd get here before his wig did, but
Dollmore: Shipped today! WOO! I've really been missing Vanilla for reasons.
Still nothing on my final Etsy order or Alice.
I am in talks to get an Fdoll body, so hopefully that will happen soon - this will be for Rowan, Sage's twin, so he'll have a body! Which means I need to figure out their wig sitch. I either need a new wig for Sage or a decent wig for Ro. They can't share the same one....it doesn't work.
F60 Soony is still fabulous on her SD10 body. I am working on different hands for her. The Zaoll hands are great for now tho.
And most fun - my MNF Celine (trade for Bory) showed up this week!!
This is not a final look. At least for now it's not. He came with this faceup, which is a little girly for me, but since I'm still not in a place where I can do them, it will be fine for now. Nail polish must come off. He may keep the eyes - and I have been dying to use that wig ever since I sold the doll I dyed it for eons ago. If he doesn't keep it, it'll be natural colors of either a pale blond or darker blond/black mix. I love this one tho >.< and so far it doesn't seem to be bleeding! Yay!
I was thinking he'd be a deer, but with the blue hair....I'm not sure about deer anymore.
Between him and my MNF Soony, there are three names I'm considering:
Chestnut Praline (Ches)
Peppermint Latte (Mint or Latte)
Cinnamon Dolce (Dolce)
I can't decide which fits him better, and which fits Soony (who is a panda with Macchi's original fur wig - white with a few color streaks) better. Celine is a photographer who turned paparazzi, Soony is a Panda techno-geek. Ugh. At least I know how they fit into Mocha's storyline. They have to be the last too, I was originally only going to have three. THREE. Mocha, Des and Macchi. Then four when Vanilla happened, and that was it. Now there's way more than that!! And I really want that Island Doll Wind girl who's name I can't remember for one of them >.< that may never happen...
Random trades are both my bane and favorite thing ever. lol
One more
Oh that FL tan is very lovely. Does it photograph the same as in person? And I love the names for your dolls. They make me a tad hungry though, the names all sound so delicious!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're going to have a bunch of stuff incoming! I always find I have never ordered quite as much as I have since joining the BJD hobby. It seems to be a constant thing.
It does! That is roughly it's color. It's hard to get it accurate - If I had more tans I'd do a comparison but all I've got are ....ok I have than I thought because I've also got my Soom/DK hybrid. Maybe I'll do a quick compare. Jean will be in there even though I think most people don't consider the RSB to be tan (it is to me!). - lol I can't believe it took me so long to have a group of dolls named after coffee beverages. I bought Mocha because he was the "coffee" color, then named him after it! I guess it was only a matter of time...
DeleteFor real. And when I don't have incoming I tend to look at what can be sold so I can order more stuff. It's horrible and fabulous. Like Christmas all the time!!
I would love to see tan comparisons if you get a chance. And I'm like you, I considered Luts RSB tan.
DeleteI do the same, I'm always considering what to sell to get more stuff myself although I am having a hard time selling the Popodoll body. No takers at all. I did manage to sell my Minifee Carl though so at least that was something!
I'll try to do it tomorrow! *flail* I just have to remember who all my tan dolls are. :\
DeleteI'm actually kind of amazed the Popo didn't sell. Mine went after about one day of being up -- though it was a trade so it really doesn't count. Yay for the MNF sale though! That's great! I'm floating around happy - I finally shipped Thomas out yesterday. No more Iple resin for me!! I feel about 20lbs lighter....
