Stuff what's happening.

Whelp, as usual, I have fallen behind.

Last week was Thanksgiving holiday here in the states, and I spent the day at my Mom's, with her and my Uncle. We referred to it as her "First" Thanksgiving, as she's been retired since early this year, and she used to work every single holiday for years and years. It's been forever since I celebrated a Thanksgiving with her on the actual day. I dragged some dolls over, so there are pics. Sorta. lol Her lighting is worse than mine!

Anyway, what's going on:
Sales
I've put a lot up for sale recently, in an attempt to "clean house". Sadly not a lot is moving out :\ but I think we've lamented on the status of the second-hand market enough (it will never be enough! NEVER!!) so I won't whine anymore. Maybe.

What's left of what I'm selling is

Newly added today (so no DOA thread yet) is Ryuji's Popodoll 68cm body. I have decided it's going. Someday I'll find him a shorter one to live on - 65cm should be adequate enough. Hopefully something without a hip joint as I have decided they are the devil. NO MORE. Unless they either don't move, like FL, or move well, like Dollstown.

As usual, I will consider offers on all, and I will always consider trades. Especially for bodies. Holy crap please. I have somehow ended up with about a million floating heads this year D:

Which brings me too....

On the way

...my newest floating head XD

I will soon be in possession of a Minifee Juri 14 - or the Elf Soony. Which is way yay! As I was not interested in that sculpt at all until it had elf ears. Elf ears make everything fun. I want all the elf ears. No idea who he or she will be or what freaking body it will reside on (probably not MNF).

I got it with a Unoa body in need of a little TLC (more to come on that) in a trade for faceup work (cause, TRADES!!! :D ) and I am crossing my fingers for a Saturday delivery. I have a dollmeet Sunday, I'd like to tote it along to check out bodies if at all possible. 

Also nearly on the way (lots of yays here) the Luts Yul Satyresse head!! 

Someone finally contacted me with the head, unfortunately it was off for a very expensive faceup. I was going to decline the sale -- it was just way more than I wanted to pay -- but when she sent photos of the faceup....I couldn't do it >.<

It's on layaway now, I'll be paying it off tomorrow and hopefully the real Little Wynners will be on the way soon! To find that he has no body waiting for him. Boo. 

To make things worse, I'm not sure I want to sell the "temporary wyn" head I bought. It's cute, and I modded it....so it may stick around. Maybe it can be Soony's friend. XD

Add to that all the other bodies I need and I'm overwhelmed by floating heads D:

Still waiting on my Withdoll Werewolf and Miracle doll Lestat head (OMG MORE HEADS).

Withdoll is selling the Macaron dolls again. Which is killing me. I really wish they'd waited until next year. I would love a Sweet Green one (Teeny Frankenstein!) but I just can't order from them again until I see my first one....and he's not even close to shipping I'm afraid. Plus I don't want to spend even more money on dolls this close to the holidays. 

As of today my Volks MSD body is on the way out the door. I will be receiving 3 pairs of urethane eyes I'm excited about (Gumdrops and Makoeyes) in her place.

Speaking of urethanes, I ordered two pairs of eyes from Candy Kitten on Etsy for my El. Two pairs came this week....but one was not the pair I ordered. I contacted her but didn't hear back for a couple days....so I did it again yesterday honestly thinking that maybe the first message didn't work -- I can't find where I sent it. So hopefully she'll respond to the next message. I guess I'll have to contact Etsy if I continue to hear nothing. In the meantime I'm not using either pair of eyes in case I have to send them back.....which sucks. They're nice-looking eyes too....I would order from her again, but after this mess I'm thinking not. 

Other than that, most of my crew (ok not most, but several) are dressed for the Holiday meet this weekend in their Christmas themed attire - Alex is of course wearing a robe. Since he'll be nearly naked as usual XD 

This years "outfit" is so funny I laugh thinking about it. I just wish I had better shoes for him. He may have to borrow Azrael's feet this weekend....which will be really funny if he has to take his shoes off.

Alex III is wearing this. I am so fucking happy. He looks like that!!! Even the wtf string around his neck! It's awesome.

Because everyone is in Christmas garb I have had Macchi and Ren (ha ha!! Laches has a name now!!) to keep me company. Ren has found a hat and boots so he's even cuter than ever, but I forgot I was going to photograph him at lunch so no pictures. 

Except for these! Taken at my moms on Thanksgiving!

The whole Teeny Crew (as I've been calling them). They got a shopping cart. There goes the neighborhood. 

   

 They accosted my moms centerpiece....I have no idea.

 

I also don't know why Ebils is in a boot. O.O

 

The newly-named Ren on the Lati Yellow body he stole from Lea (the grey-haired one now on the SP body. She's not staying - I'm gifting her away for Christmas...). The color is way off, and I was a little afeard I wouldn't care for him on the smaller body but aoiehfawehro;ytiohweryweiryoiheg I love it!!! LOVE IT!! He's so freaking cute he kills me. His cute rivals baby Alex (not quite, but a little) in my eyes.

 

And Seven, because Alex.

There's a few more on my Flickr, but I won't overspam. None of them are great anyway. I will say I am highly enjoying my second try at this Lati Yellow size. It's actually depressing - give me monsters and I'm happy XD

Something more creative and cute I get bored....oh wells. I hope WD ships out the werewolves soon. I need a Sterek to play with my other boys! And wear some of the clothes! I have clothes!! The others aren't changing D:

Oh crap Sterek won't wear clothes at all....he has fur. D:

Anyway I hope everyone has been having a good week, and a good Holiday for those who have and are having one!

Behind again. But Success!

As it seems to go these days it's been awhile since I updated anything. I haven't done much with my dolls other than make a few wigs and snap some crappy pics of a few new arrivals and such, so I guess there's not much to get excited over. I would love to get photos taken of a lot of the current crew, but I'm sick of taking them at work...which leaves me with not a lot of options.

Also I'm attempting Nano again this year (which hopefully won't be indefinitely postponed by sickness and death like it was last year. No one wants that.) and it's taking up time (I should be writing - but I'm actually a head for once so it's ok. right??) and a lot of energy.

But I do have photos!

Fiirst is the little guy (technically a girl, but y'know. No.) I won at Dollism for coming in second in the faceup contest. He's a Doll Family A JiMing (it took me forever to remember the mold name, and then I sort forgot I had him. *shame*). I had NO idea what I was going to do with him. He looks a lot like DK Aqua, which is the head I'd used in the contest, so I was stuck on him being that doll smaller - but that doll is nothing right now. No character or even a body, so having a small version of him was totally unappealing. He's also a sleeping mold which through me off even more. I stuck him on my shelf and thus my forgetting I owned him. Then while I was looking at photos of some Withdoll Tinies, in preperation for my own eventually getting here, I saw the cutest thing ever, and was told it was a DF tiny.

This caused me to remember I had one. And when I realized it was Lati Yellow/Pukifee sized I got excited because I was still expecting the AB Cream, I had Ebils and had just ordered that Werewolf baby from WD... So really the DF would fit right in. And on the spot I came up with something for him. His name is Morpheus, or Morph for short, but I call him Sandy, cause he's the Sandman.

The Sandman who needs practice. He's always putting himself to sleep >.<

 

That wig is like, three times the size of his head. I have since made him a new one...but he's wearing a dreadful outfit right now as someone else had to take that one....

 

D'aw, Ebils. He never fails to make me happy with his sinister cute and weird little self. Ebils still refuses to wear the clothes, even though I have been happily collecting a wardrobe for these guys.
I have realized why I didn't get along with this size the first time around. Both Jethro and Circus never changed. They wore the same outfit (sorta) and just sat there. I never had a problem with Ebils being nekkid but the other two I had no interest in because I did nothing with them. Sandy changes clothes. So he's already been fun. He's a little tough to deal with though...I'm used to Ebils being a posing dream - I had to suede and wire poor Sandy half to death and he's still not right. I'll work on him some more late.

The day before Halloween this happened.

 

The day before. Halloween. The day before. I'm still laughing. One more day and his "birthday" would have been freaking Halloween!! lol YOU FAIL BONES!

AngelBattle surprised me by including their current free gift - a pumpkin head which I love to death, and 3 extra pairs of hands I was unaware were included! So I was especially happy to open him - you may not have noticed this but I obsess over extra parts like a cray. I have boxes. I want them all.
Right now he's got a fist hand and a ROCK! hand going on. I love them. And that face!! I had a hard time choosing between all of the Dark Chocolate band members but I'm really glad I went with Cream. I never thought a boneface could be so expressive.

 

His elbow and knee joints aren't fantastic but he must be really well balanced because he can stand all over the place and with his arms and legs everywhere. I love the head/neck jointing along with the pelvis/spine joints. I just love this guy! He's on my desk right now, looking extremely happy. XD

So one last yay of the day. Last week I got a response to my WTB for the Lati Yellow Laches, the one I was so sad to have passed on at Dollism. It didn't come with it's fullset, and was on the SP body (which is the larger one), but I jumped on him anyway. I don't think he was popular at all, so there may not be too many out there....She shipped him Saturday and he got here in record time on Monday.

I regret nothing.

 

That's the face I fell in love with!!

He has the default faceup, which I'll be keeping for now (I like it, no desire to change a thing yet), and the eyes, which I also like. I made the wig and he stole this outfit from Sandy because, on the larger body, it's the only thing I have that fits him. 

Ultimately I would like to get him the smaller body, but I'm happy to have any right now. I don't care for how tall he is next to the rest....but I'm in no massive hurry. I was kind of hoping to get a Luts body for him, but it's a dreadful match. This is his true-to-life color - I have yet to find another tan that orange. I'll put a WTB/WTT for this body for a regular Yellow one, and if that fails I'll buy another full tan doll and switch heads. Which is probably what I'll end up having to do.

I calls him Fang, though I can't think of a real name for him....Bones is Mcoy from Star Trek, and I have the Sandman, and Sterek is incoming (Teen Wolf for those who don't know)....but for some reason I'm blanking on vampires.

Anyone else find that sad? I mean really :\
Of all the things.

I'm debating trying to get a vampire Noa as well, but if that doesn't happen it doesn't happen...other than a possible Noa, I don't really want anymore of this size. Fairyland just doesn't do it for me at this size, and Luts hasn't grabbed me yet either (though I bet they will - I don't put fangs past them at all) and I'm happy with my current little monsters. Or I will be when Sterek gets here XD

In other doll news, I put several of my Puki collection up for sale. I'm keeping my most favorites and that's it. Two have already sold (I have to update that!!), but there's still a couple left.

My LTF Rose - Latte - might be gone for awhile, or forever. I gave her body to Baby Alex's sleeping head. And I like it. A lot. I was looking for a body for him anyway, something cheap, and since I had this one already that's about as cheap as it comes! And truthfully I wouldn't have wanted anything other than LTF anyway.....and as much as I like Latte, I always kind of thought I'd end up selling her. This is better.

I modded the eyes on my Little Wyn head, they're not as crooked as they were, and bigger and more Wyn-like.

I think that's it. Not much else. I would really like to come with good photoshoot for Alex. I need to get a shot of his tattoos before they get ruined. Because they will, it's Alex. My 7th Kara Klum is still blank (and being tormented by Alex I) because I don't want to just do any old thing to him. I got the alpaca hair I want to make his wig with but I've yet to touch it. Someday I'll get everything to a point when I can work on that....someday...

Have a great week! <3
