Lol very very nice.

Though my Makrua and Staralight pairing seems to work out pretty well too. What with him being a demon and all.

Teal 12-14-2009 12:06 PM

Hello (:

Sorry I poofed on Friday, my computer crashed and I had to leave early so I couldn't start it back up Dx

Plus I'm grounded for doing nothing wrong :P So I won't be here that often. Bleh. Haha

I have two dolls of my own. A male Lu-Wen and a male elf Ani. I'm still lazily working on de-genderfying the Ani's body though, heh. Still got some mad sanding to do.

Course, because of these two, I've learned how to do faceups. -.-; I couldn't afford to ship them out but I can swing the money for the paints and such. =D I also tend to sew for them. I'm tryin to save up for a girl. I'm just not sure which one I want just yet, heh.

Good to hear the pairing works out well, Staralight. ^^

Teal: No problem, but drop in whenever you can! We like talking to you.

Lacquer: Oh, a Lu-Wen! He is also on my wishlist! What kind of face-up did you do for them? Have any pictures?

Teal 12-15-2009 02:56 AM

Haha! I'm not grounded anymore! ^-^ I did a TON of chores and what not ;D
And thank you Alba, I like talking to everyone as well! (:

Lacquer 12-16-2009 01:27 AM

I can hunt some down or take some tomorrow. ^^ Too lazy to hunt for my camera right now, cause I know I've got some of the lu wen on that.

Teal 12-16-2009 02:45 AM

Oohh I wanna see pictures too ^-^

*waits*

Staralight 12-16-2009 05:37 AM

Lol seeing those pics would be awesome ^w^

Teal 12-16-2009 01:39 PM

Staralight: Do you have the Hid doll from Dollzone?? *o*

Lacquer 12-16-2009 09:57 PM

Found two decent images of the luwen's face. Uh, and that awesome first wig? Mourn it. I messed it up somethin' fierce while clippering at it. But, hopefully this Jan I'll be going on our monthly meetups and'll be able to hit up patty lynns for a replacement. >_> To hack up again. I'll do better this time tho.

I'm thinking about redoing the ani's faceup, but I'll try and get some decent shots of him sometime this week before I wipe it. The ani's kinda hard to get nice, clean shots of.

Teal: Why yes I do ^w^
His name is Makrua though. lol

So I just got done with a day full making props. Ranging from more books, shoulder bag, Quill, and as soon as the oven is free of dinner I'll be making a small clay jar and an ink jar for the quill.

Mwuahahaha I call today productive indeed.

Teal 12-17-2009 02:39 AM

Lacquer: Awesome photos! ^o^
Staralight: Haha nice name for him ^^ And congrats at buying Makrua! *o* I either want the Hid doll or Mo. > w <
I'll get around to making some type of clothing :P How did you make the books if you don't mind me asking?

Staralight 12-17-2009 02:48 AM

Cardboard, super glue, and paper. ^w^ They were actually very simple. I folded a rectangular piece of cardboard about the right size to fit into an MSD or SDs hands, and put a line of super glue at the fold, inserted some cut up paper to fit. And presto! Book. Lol
To give it a leather cover, I was going to get some more super glue (laugh ran out) and put some leather around the cardboard part and rub it a bit to give it an older feel.

Lol which mo?

This guy : 产品展示
or this guy: 产品展示

My friend Ashlye's Kai is the first one.

Teal 12-17-2009 02:51 AM

Haha, I've never thought about that xD I remember seeing my friend make one with a staple, some construction paper and regular paper though.
The first one > w < I adore him so much!

Staralight 12-17-2009 03:03 AM

Lol so do I. The Steam punk Mo was her first doll.


Oh and to give the paper a parchment yellow look, you can simple just dampen a tea bag and very lightly run it over the paper and let it dry like that. Gives the paper a nice old tinge to it.

The shoulder bag and one of the books are actually going to be Christmas presents for my friend and her doll. Though we're both getting pretty sure that she'll be getting a Chibi Ted from her parents for Christmas. So I may have to throw in some more stuff for two dolls. Lol

Teal 12-17-2009 03:05 AM

I'm hoping he'll be my first one as well ^-^ I just need to save up and get a credit card or something xD

Thank you for the tip (: I'll have to try that out either this weekend or tomorrow!

Awesomeness! ^-^ I like the way you did the books ;D (The little book marker is cute!)

Staralight 12-17-2009 03:16 AM

Why thank you ^w^

Hrm at some point I want to try making a music stand, but I have no idea how I'd go about something like that.

Also I sew clothes. Kai's current outfit is actually a hoodie and pants that I made for him.
Almost all the photos with Makrua are stuff I've made. (minus the shoes. Not anywhere near able to cobble. Yet.)

Teal 12-17-2009 03:19 AM

I'm not sure how to make a music stand either x___x;

Aw I really need to try making clothes sometime xD I need to get some fabrics and stuff though (: I've seen some really cute outfits for dolls, but their all so expensive!
And shoes would be really hard to make lol. Except maybe slippers...Still hard but not as difficult...Bunny slippers would be cute though :3

Staralight 12-17-2009 03:24 AM

Oh slippers I know how to make. ^w^ It's regular shoes I'm iffy on.

And you can make hoodies and shirts out of socks.

Teal 12-17-2009 03:26 AM

Haha, I want to try to make slippers now x3 Just need to find some sort of doll to practice making clothes for...Maybe a Bratz doll xD I know my niece has one around here somewhere..

Really? I never would have thought about using socks x__x

Staralight 12-17-2009 03:43 AM

Lol actually neither would I until a friend of mine told me about this tutorial on Youtube of this girl making hoodies for her Dolls out of them.

So I tried it, and well they don't come out looking that bad at all.
That's actually what Makrua's shirt underneath that winter vest is. A sock I turned into one.

Teal 12-17-2009 03:46 AM

Lol, I will have to try that then ^-^
And his vest looks really spiffy by the way ;D From what I can see

Staralight 12-17-2009 04:21 AM

Lol thank you. Made that too. Granted it was actually just modifying one of those holiday vests made for small dogs..>w> It's amazing all the really cool stuff that can be modified for dolls.

Teal 12-17-2009 04:25 AM

xD I almost bought one of those for my dog. She's just so small, I worry about her when she goes outside. She starts to shiver almost instantly..

That is very true ^^ I'll have to go around looking at the clothes that don't fit my little brother anymore and see if I can modify them (: He's got this one shirt that has a picture of a smiley face thing that I want to cut off and make a little shirt out of it or something :B

Staralight 12-17-2009 05:15 AM

Oh that would be very cute ^w^
