Daisy, Soom Agate; and her toes: And Artemisia, looking a lot like The Red Queen in Cat's outfit. No toaster stuff today--I had to re-read parts of some really great books by Lynda Williams for background for a new manuscript, and I ended up reading more than I intended because they are so good. I also accidentally uploaded a lot of my hard drive to FLickr's cloud by not paying attention to the uploading instructions, so now there are 6094 pictures floating on Flickr's cloud. Oh well.

Roswell was once a "Beauty Green" Dark Elf Soo from Luts, and she was in pretty tough shape when she came-- you can see her right out of the box here . She was put on a heavily modded and dyed Luts Delf body and painted Sienna all over, and she has been one of my favorites ever since. She sits happily out in the sun, wears any goofy thing I have or nothing with equal good cheer. She's currently wearing some second-hand Dollbakery eyes and they are pretty nice--I like the smooth resin back. I think the color is "Galaxy"? Which seems appropriate for a little alien. Other people are also progressing--I have Agate's feet just about finished (I need to add some padding between the ankles and the paws): Yes, there is glitter on her toes. Here she is full-length before I redid her feet: (Cat made her splendid cloak) I think she is just adorable! Today's task will be to glue in her horn magnets and decorate them. I got up early this morning (the cat was ...

Agate, the "Mother of Dragons" came out with a gorgeous outfit, a baby dragon and some mighty fine horns , but alas I had no money and apparently no one did either for that release, because I only know of two people who bought her. So I sort of gave up, and then one of the two owners put her up for sale. I couldn't swing the asking price, so I have been buying her piece by piece as I sell other things. In person she is far more of a "cutie face" than the tragic princess of the promos. Almost always these dolls look cuter in person than in photos. :D And speaking of heads, we have 3 heads of cabbage ready, which is a lot for two people. Here is one of them, cleaned up a little. I need to take a photo of the mess that bed is right now--I suspect a bunny got in there and the broccoli has bolted. I need to figure out what to plant for fall--I am thinking spinach. I really like spinach.

If you loved Daenerys from Game of Thrones (or just dragons) you are in luck--Soom has just put up Agate, Mother of Dragons, a lovely blonde dragon princess...with a baby dragon. And a fabulous dress! And dragon horns...and, not included in the original book--fantasy feet. Sort of..tiger paw fantasy feet? Oh, never mind the paws, look at those elegant little sandals. What a shame I didn't win the Powerball a few weeks ago! But if you did, run to this link: Agate, Mother of Dragons I'd say definitely buy the whole set, so you can get the baby dragon AND the dress!(and the shoes). Order period is from Dec. 28th 2012 to Jan. 25th 2013. Edit -- Soom has added the cheaper option of a kit form--check the contents, but the savings are substantial.
