Spent a few hours at silence_bliss‘ yesterday, letting her work her magic (as in glue gun) on a handful of my pretties – and not so pretties (as in Hujoos..):

The latest addition to the family came along, he’s a twin brother to my “big guy”, an Angel of Dream SD of a mold called Mo. He’s got a beautiful custom faceup, which makes me even more eager to redo the one my other guy has (I’ve already done my best in ruining it, by washing him with a magic sponge – kids, that’s not a clever thing to do if you want to remove dirt only and not the faceup..). The newcomer arrived sporting a long, red synthetic wig, but was promptly given a brown fur wig – leaving my poor Yuhi (Namu Vispo) bald.. On the rightmost picture below he’s borrowing his brother’s synthetic wig. I need – and have ordered – silicone caps in order to let these guys wear the fur wigs I’ve got – they’re a tad bit too large. I could of course also get them wigs in a more appropriate size, letting Aki (Taeyang) and Yuhi keep theirs. ;) Off to Sunny’s Wonderful World once I get my July salary, I guess! Shoot that, he needs shoes too, so I just ordered both. Yay for free shipping, and for my s/o’s income being higher during the summer months…

The girl on the picture, a Dollzone Yage called Haylee, jumped into Jun’s bag when I left the workshop yesterday. Jun doesn’t seem to mind much, does he? I would actually not mind having her on a permanent bases, but she’s a hybrid and her owner is reluctant of letting her go since it would lower the value of the other doll (they have each other’s lower arms/hands and legs). I really shouldn’t even think along those lines, anyway – I have plans and hopes on getting an U-noa Lusis later this summer and that would mean my budget being spent right there. So, as for now, Haylee is only visiting! I hope the weather – and my work schedule – will allow some seaside photography during the week ahead.

I keep reconsidering my Pullip collection all the time, as this is written there are actually 9 dolls (boys included) which I could’ve let go of without much remorse. The main reason I feel this way, I reckon, is partly because I want to free funds for bjds (I want a SD girl at some point, plus at least one more tiny), partly because we _still_ haven’t gotten around to making that hobby room – all my dolls spend most of their time being tucked inside cardboard boxes, and it feels a bit of a .. I don’t know, waste? :( I see others having their dolls displayed in IKEA shelves and want to do the same, but I definitely don’t want to make them the main attraction of our living room. ;) There’s also the fact that whenever I want to take pictures, I need to set up the diorama and the lamps, and then put it back after I’m done. I am (too) easily discouraged by this. So, hobby room, be done already.
