What are you having difficulties with about the dress? Maybe I can help? Zee Rosaria loves looking at artwork. But it doesn't sound creepy to me, I draw Arnorr all the time. He is my little muse.
That reminds me... Note to self: Return mom's art books to her.

I have trouble with the frills xD They just look a little funny when I draw them. They don't pop enough or something...
Is he the doll in your siggy? :3 He looks amazing from what I can see ^^ And it's not that the Mad Hatter doll looks all that creepy, he just has...Kind of a creepy look to him? That doesn't make any sense ^^; I like him though (:
Haha, I borrow books from my mom all the time, but not art books. My dad was the one who used to draw a lot as a kid. I remember him making little funny pictures for me when I was little. So I guess he was my inspiration to start drawing more and more ^^

We have an entire line of people who draw in my family. We have an entire room set up just for painting, sewing and sorts. There is an entire wall of just art books, craft books and reference books. We simply refer to it as the sewing room due to the excess of fabrics. (And I am still mad at my sister-in-law for taking off with half of our dupioni silk. Gr. )
Frills aren't too, too hard. If I can find my one art book at home (like mentioned before, it is an utter mess right now,) I'll take a picture of how they demonstrate it. I lurves flowy fabrics and frills, so pretty!
My mom always encouraged me to draw and I've always been oriented to draw fantasy, though I did draw a geisha woman seated by a koi pond that one year for her birthday. ^^ My one brother, on the other hand, always made cards and his drawings consist of stick figures. They are great. XD He is two years older than me and is still doing it.
Thank you! Yes, that is Arnorr. He typically has white hair, but that wig died. I have my avatar looking somewhat like him, just lack of clothing. I love that doll on DZ (by the way, Arnorr is a DZ doll, too.) I think the dark look suits that doll.

Wahh, that's amazing! *o* I wish we had a sewing room, the only chance I get to sew is at my moms (And I'm dangerous with sewing machines soooo xD)
Really? Thank you so much! ^^ That would help a ton x___x
Aw x3 I like to draw fantasy as well! I'm just practicing on the frills and trying to do elven ears (They look funny too when I draw them haha)
Ooh, I didn't know he was a DZ doll *_* And how did his wig die? xD (And I was thinking your avatar looked somewhat like him because of the eye color and hair)

His white wig tangled incessantly and the threads of his wig were coming undone... He was balding! D: Most unsettling! I never had that problem with the default wig he came with, a long silver, nor the braided red one from Ebay or the current blonde/silver combo one from yet another Ebay store. I need to get him another excessively long white wig.
His mold is in the 'Special DZ' section, he is the Ian doll.
Elven ears are the smex, I have an obsession with them. It is rare that a drawing goes without a pair of elven ears attached to a character's head. XD
Try hand sewing, it can be annoying at times and take 5 times as long to complete a project, but it is more rewarding, at least to me, than creating something by sewing machine because you did it without a machine's help. (Wow, run-on sentence... )

Oh no D: That's terrible! Balding is no fun for a doll Dx He does look nice with the wig he has on in the picture though (: I would probably buy Demi a lot of wigs too x3
He's Ian O.O I was trying to figure out which one he was haha! I really like Aleister from the special DZ section ^^
I can't draw normal ears to save my life xD
That's true. I need to practice sewing as well. I'll ask my mom to help me this weekend (: Going to her house to visit today when my dad gets home, which wont be for a while so I'm trying to kill some time

I need practice sewing as well. My straight stitch ain't so straight. XD And I want tea, but that is besides the point.
Oh, I love Aleister, too! He is a dark, elegant little sweety. I really love Ivan. He is on my wishlist along with Isabel. Isabel would have been the perfect mold for Arnorr's sister Líadan.;-;
What are you planning to make while practicing sewing?

He is isn't he? ^^ Isabel's eyes are amazing x__x I really hope you get them!
I'm not sure. Maybe I'll just make a pillow? xD Heh, or I could try making a little shirt (:

Speaking of tea... A tea cup plushie! I wants. XD
I could find something similar to Isabel's eyes, but the doll is another matter. I can settle for a different doll for Líadan. I seem to have a thing for partially closed eyes like Arnorr's or the Isabel doll.
A pillow? Attach tread in in two corners and have a portable pillow around your neck. Newest version of gangsta bling!
Tea... I love tea. I have about 18 tea cups in my bed room alone, and over 30 different flavors of tea.

Aww x3 Tea cup plushie??
I like the way Dream's eyes are closed ^^ But I can picture him looking absolutely amazing with gold eyes.
Haha, I would so wear that to school xD I fall asleep in class sometimes and wake up with a sore neck.
Oh wow O.O I don't have any tea cups...Or tea at the moment xD I need to go shopping~

I love tea excessively. I have at least one cup a day. A couple of my favorite teas are... Republic of Tea's Blackberry Sage tea, Twinning's Lady Grey tea, Republic of Tea's rose black tea (loose leaf,) and Tzo of Tea's (I think that is their name, I do not recall entirely) chamomile and lavender (loose leaf) tea. A tea cup or tea pot plushie would be freakin' awesome.
Agreed right down to the color of eyes. And funny thing... Arnorr was almost named 'Dream,' but I couldn't find just the right translation of the term that I liked. (Most of the names I choose are from dead languages, haha. )
I rarely fall asleep in my classes, but it would come in handy between classes.

Haha, I don't get to have tea that often xD I think the last time I had some was at my moms house...2 weeks ago ^^;
Nice x3 Dead languages? :3 Sounds interesting
I can't help it most of the time heh, I have trouble sleeping some times, and all of a sudden I'll be out like a light in class.

Understandable. My mother is an insomniac and actually will pass out randomly in the middle of the day. At best, she gets about four hours of sleep.
I lurves dead languages. This name is translated from Latin and means "White Rose Gardens." Arnorr's name is Old Norse for 'Eagle' and his last name, Rosarius, comes from the same adjective that was used in neuter plural form to be this name and means 'Liken to Roses.' Pardon my nerdality. (New word creation! Hu-zah! )

Like I said, I am a nerd. When I create a character to RP with, draw, or do a story on, there is a hidden meaning behind their name. It typically takes me about 15-30 minutes just to decide on a name for a creation. One of the simpler name meanings (pertaining to language) is a recent character I created that is a bit off her rocker and is in a Victorian sanitarium. Her true name is Cassandra 'Rosa' Mays, but she only answers to ' Magnolia Pitcher." Magnolia was chosen because she is actually a southern belle only moved to London because of her husband, and Pitcher is a historical reference from the Revolutionary War. Molly Pitcher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I won't fill up more space explaining her true name.
Anyways, it is fun. Arnorr is a character that spans over different story lines and has even taken over other characters. The blonde wig matches him perfectly to the character Dream (hence why he was almost named that.) But I has an obsession with white skinned, long white haired and vibrant blue eyed male characters. XP

Naww, you're not a nerd! And I think that's awesome, coming up with names with meanings behind them (: Cassandra Rosa Mays is a beautiful name, along with Magnolia ^^
And I have an obsession with blue eyes as well, along with gold or red xD Not sure why. I absolutely adore Mo and Hid. Mo because of his hair and just his face looks cute > w< Hid because he looks dangerous haha xD

I have an obsession with... Blue, purple, silver and gold eyes. I am playing with the idea of turning Arnorr's eyes two tone, but that fits his wife's character more... Though it would fit Dream's character. Blue and silver with that golden-silver wig. Just remember that you can easily change out eyes and wigs. XP
I think this thread is getting quite active.

If this keeps up, we could even open up a spot on the RP forum for a doll RP if people wanted.
Just put a little money to the side whenever you can and you'll have Demi in no time, me thinks. ^^
Man, it won't be till 4 that my ride comes.

With the economy the way it is, it wouldn't matter how old you are, you probably still wouldn't have a job just like me. That is why I want a website and get the house clean so I can make stuff to sell on Etsy.

Thank you, and I am addicted to jewelry as well. XP I wear at least five different necklaces at any given time, along with rings, bracelets... I need to make new arm warmers, my current ones from Victorian Trading Company are in shambles.
