Camigwen With Lashes

Image
...And a new wig! "These things are everywhere" (Even pink ones :D ) Now for some clothes--the dress she is wearing (by Sewing Box Designs) is such a great color but it's intended for the much chunkier Impldoll Idol, so I need to dig around and see if I have any similar fabric in my stash. Those are Ersa Flora eyes, by the way. :D

A Goodwill Tiny Sword, a Spider, and a Vice

Image
I had to drop off the porcelain doll from the doll show at the Goodwill, so of course we had to go in (J was not enthusiastic, so I didn't stay long). I did find this sword--it's probably some Noble Collection replica thing, it's too big for a letter opener, and the blade was a bit nicked and pitted, but it is a perfect size for a big SD doll. Also there was a bag of thread, a silk dress, some wired ribbon, and a tiny aspic mold: All this fun for under 20 dollars! J also did some household things today--he took down the wire we have on the roof to melt snow and prevent ice dams (unlikely in June, even in Chicago), and took down the inside plexiglass on the kitchen skylight; the skylight that is over the table. About two weeks ago I looked up, and saw a spider on the inside of the glass, above it, but below the outside roof bubble, and I felt bad for it being trapped in there. Then I looked up a few minutes later and the spider was between the sandwiched layers of pl...

Camigwen with a Face

Image
So here is Camigwen with a fast faceup (still needs gloss and lashes).  Today was a full day, which also included climbing on the roof, which I don't intend to do again when the sun is overhead..the roof gets hot. We still have a few tiny maple trees growing in our front gutter, but I am going to make a tool and poke them out from ground level instead of sliding around on my butt on a hot roof. We also went to the farm market and bought a few things. Not cabbage, though it looked awesome--one cabbage is a lot for 2 people. I never did read the full sign about the Monkey Crisps: But we did buy the Michigan Strawberries, because it was "the last week" for them ;)

Camigwen

Camigwen is a Soom Alex, from the New York Comic Con special a couple of years ago. Photos do not do her cuteness justice--she looks like a cross between Amber and Migma. Cat saw her at the show and said that people will be sorry they missed her--I am just glad I was able to get her, almost in mint condition, for a trade! <3 If I get a lot of work done tomorrow maybe I can paint her up! The weather is fantastic now: (Raspberries/ blackberries --they reverted to species but are still tasty-- that I got from planting old Target raspberries past their prime :D) Also the "pond" is looking great: And it must be summer, the doves are here!

One Off Knockoff

Image
So Arekushia and I have a split up on Den of Angels for Souldoll's Anaele --I would take her head and makeup, and Arekushia would take the New Zenith body and the Hippy outfit..the problem is that it leaves the Giant Fantasy Hungarian Princess Dress of Epic Proportions unclaimed, since neither of us has anyone would would wear it. Also it is Very Expensive. So it's not looking too good for anyone else to show up before June 29th to lay claim to it, and Arekushia is not going to get the Hippy dress the normal way--and it seems unlikely it will surface later on the secondary market, as it is being sold as a gift with the  HPD as a bundled deal. And I thought that was a shame, as the Hippy Outfit is a cute item... and Arekushia provided my Soom Agate for me a while back, as well as most of Agate's dress and arm things. I also realized that I had that net fabric in the basement AND the leaf that you see hanging from her belt in the store photo below: Also the chain tha...

Zuzu Delf Otter

Image
I clicked on a Luts link by accident, and found an otter!! He's a smol otter, so he is off-limits for me, but oh so cute! The sales page is a placeholder right now, but his price and stats are up (the oxygen tank and hoses are not included, he's actually just a snorkeler ;) Look at those little paws :D

Bun and Bun

Image
So I have this Serenade Rabbit head that I got on the Den of Angels marketplace, under the impression that it was an SD size head. It is not. It is a mini head. I will paint it up because that part is fun; take a pic of it on my Granado Terra's body, and then send it off to Cat to do something with. If you look closely in the back you will see a little gray spot by the post. That is a real bunny: The bunny actually came by the porch door, which was a little startling while I squinted at the resin version. Yes, the profiles match :D I think it's a youngish bunny--they love my dandelions more than anything else, and they are welcome to them--all of them. (Here with it's mouth stuffed with a dandelion leaf).
