No MSC, loads of time to think.

This past weekend I wiped Rose's face up off, because it simply did not fit. He looked lovely, but he was not what I imagined him to be and did not fit one bit in the story that way. So I set everything up, ready to do his face up, but after the first coat of sealant the can went dry.
I have no more MSC.
So I unstrung him and put him in a box until I get more MSC.

 While going through my rather short wish list I realized I had, yet again, forgotten about all the heads in the box and how most of them need face ups. There is a problem, a huge one. Out of all my 12 dolls, only 2 have well defined, thought out characters, the rest, don't. They're either vague characters or just ideas.

So this weekend, since I will be without internet for about 36 hours while visiting my grandma, I will sit there with my brother and rethink everything and everyone and the whole story, everyone's back stories, drawings and doodles and a huge damn mess.

Perfectly unfinished

Despite having a temporary face up, unfinished tattoos, missing piercings and body blushing, wrong colored eyes, no clothes or shoes of his own... I still love how Tommy looks like. There is just something about him that I love a lot. He looks nothing like he did when I first got him. Have some random close ups of Tommy! :D

Wigs and cuts

I can't stand having my dolls wear the wigs I get them without styling them or cutting them somehow. I always need to get my fingers in those synthetic hair strands.
So these past weeks I have been working on making all my doll wigs fit their owner perfectly

My first victim was an old short black wig from DOD. I hated how it looked on the Ducan(only doll it fitted) so I took some of the strands of blue hair I took out of the evil Leeke wig, sewed them in and then took the scissors to it so I can make it fir Tommy's head.

My second victim was Vlad's Crobidoll wig. As much as I loved this wig, it didn't fit then character, it's was too puffy on the sides. So while watching some random show I started trimming the sides, now I can see his ears and piercings, it's not obvious in the photos I took tho.
BEFORE

AFTER

I swear Vlad and Mischa can wear any wig that fits them and they still look good, and here I am struggling with the rest to find the perfect wig and make it look good on them.

A little update.

Despite being insanely creative these days and having ideas exploding out of my head, I was so lazy. I wasn't in the mood to draw, write or take and edit photos. I just managed to do small things here and there while watching Jericho and Six Feet Under.
Anyway, he's a little update on my crew.
Vlad - finally got his wig cut properly and I couldn't be more happy with how it looks, it's been bothering me for months, but I was afraid to ruin it. I also noticed a small chip in his face-up while staring at him up close one night, it's not really visible but I hope it won't get bigger, because I love his current face just too much.
Rose - still not happy with his face up, it doesn't really fit his character. I made him some clothes of his own so that makes me feel so much better about him. I also have to fix the neck mechanism I made for him because it's being weird, some hot glue should do the trick.
Tommy - because I was in a hurry when I "airbrushed" his face, it looks like he has pores, which I love. I have to finish his face up, but I like him as he is unfinished, he has this weird messy vibe to him and that fits just so perfectly.
Haruka - he's currently on Satoshi's body, wearing mismatched eyes (one is Damie's the other is random) and a wild blonde wig that for some reason looks right on him. I love having him on my desk looking constantly unimpressed and grumpy.
Mischa - he is complete, perfect in my eyes, he just needs clothes and shoes. He's sitting next to Haru on my desk to balance out the grumpiness.
Neia - I love to have him out so much, that stupid Leeke MSD wig looks good on him after I modified it, and I just love his little dradon feet and tail.
Damie - in the box of heads. Not sure whether or not he needs a new face up.
Satoshi - another complete doll, currently in the box of heads.
The rest of the heads are just chilling in the box... waiting for me to decide what I want to do with them, but right now I have absolutely no clue.
