"Paint me like one of your French girls - Ziya" Funny thing was that she arrived without eyes, but I contacted Marie and she'll be so nice as to send me a pair soon. Luckily I ordered two extra pairs (for other dolls), but at least she does have some eyes at least. It's a funny thing how grown-up Ziya seems to be, compared to Ophélie or even Olive. Most likely it's just the face-up as usually, but she seems to be much older than her two siblings. I guess that's what inspired me to this PS picture above ^___^.

Since there is currently a preorder for the Chibi version of Newt, I thought I'd share a picture of my (original sized) Newt. I really like this kitty a lot, however, I think I do have to change something about her style. She might need another, more dramatic face-up I think. I don't have any clues though what exactly I'd love for her. Maybe for a change I should try myself at changing (or improving) her face-up. If everything fails, I can still send her away for a more professional face-up. And, of course, I also need the Chibi Version of her :D. 

Long time no post, what can I say - except that I have been very busy at the end of the year. First came the preparations for LDoll, then the stress at the end of the year with a heavy flu, but now things are starting to get back to normal and I hope that I'll be able to share more doll stuff in the coming days. Today for instance I worked on some ballet dancing shoes that I bought from Dollmore during the LDoll festival. Because to get proper doll items it does not always make sense to create them completely from scratch. Sometimes there is also the option to alter existing products to make them work for your needs. I almost always do that with wigs. There is actually hardly a doll wig in my collection that was not restyled at some point 😂. But let's return to the shoes. So I got this lovely pink shoes. As you can see the binding ribbon is wayyyy to large, I mean it's almost human sized! So the first (though scary) thing is to cut them off. I checked if it was p...

Well, exactly what the title says. I was commissioned by Roterwolkenvogel to create for her Fashion Grant an outfit similar to the one I made for David, only that hers should be black. I've had the spontaneous idea to add a net part to the upper part of the shirt, so that her Demon would be able to flaunt his tattoos even while being dressed somewhat more. However the net part made sewing complicated. Oh well O____O She also chose a very different kind of fabric that came with small, irregular folds. It really gives a very special touch to the hood :).

I'm selling this little adorable cutie, because unfortunately she doesn't fit within my doll plans. Back when I got her, I intended to hybridize her with my Crobidoll Thor head, however the resin color doesn't match unfortunately and I don't want to do large blushings on neither body or head. The beautiful face-up on her was painted by Nihil and is in great condition - as is actually the whole doll. She was kept in her box most of the time and displayed only shortly in my glass cabinet. She has no yellowing, no damage or anything whatsoever. Baby Delf is ap. the same size as the Rosenlied Holiday Children, they do fit the same outfits, however I'd say that the Baby Delf stand a little better on their own. Here is a comparison between Baby Delf (right) and Rosenlied Holiday Child (left): She will come nude with her default eyes (the light green ones from the picture above) and with her CoA. As I got her in the release event, she didn't come with her...

... but mine has to go still, as she's just too tiny for me to handle. Roro is sold, thank you :) Cute little Roro comes with both faceplates and both have the most adorable Face-up by Kesha. She is normal skin (I didn't notice any yellowing, so if she has some, it would probably be very even) and I am not the first owner of this item. Overall she's in very good condition. The only thing that comes to mind is, that she probably could use some restringing in her legs? At least I've always been of the impression that her right leg is a little bit more floppy than her left leg - but that might also be just me not getting along with tiny dolls like these.

My poor Fashion Line David Kuncci still has no shoes or clothing and he is supposed to join me for a doll meet next Saturday, so it was about time to make him some shoes. Since he prefers a rather casual and comfy style we went with a pair of sandals. Today I'm really happy, that DollShe included the flip-flop feet with the full-set. Cardboard base for sole and footbed The footbed was covered with velour leather And some satin ribbon - finished They fit nicely and don't fall off that easily

Cutie Daisy showing her tummy Warum nur verpasse ich fast immer die BJD Foto-Event-Tage auf tumblr? Offensichtlich lese ich nicht die richtigen Posts. Anyway, diesen Sonntag, am 29. Mai habe ich ihn mal ausnahmsweise nicht verpasst. Es war #BJDabdomenDay Nun ja, das Ergebnis seht ihr hier. Während überall auf tumblr die muskulösen 65cm + Resin Kerle ihren Sixpack und hübsche MNF Girls ihre grazilen Hüften zeigten, war auch Daisy mit dabei. xD Ach ja: CLAVICLES/SHOULDERS  will fall on the 12th of June   falls noch jemand mitmachen möchte :)

... will be some picnic blankets. Just like the real thing they are made from a nice and soft material on top and they come with a water-repellent fabric on the bottom. They are not only great for picnic photos with your dollies, they also have some very functional aspects, too. They're great if your outside to take some pictures with your doll, because you can rest your doll (or your camera) on this stylish picnic rug when you need to get your hands free. They will be available in two sizes, YoSD and MSD. Here is on in tiny size. This model is called "unicorns and fairies"

At the end of last week my Rosenlied Holiday Child Bambi Reverie arrived. She was absolutely gorgeous in person, but during the wait for her I got another Holiday Child and decided that I do not really need 3 of them. And since I already developed a week spot for ShaSha and Miu, I decided that Bambi would have to go. She already found a new home here with another member from the German BJD community, so I will most likely have the chance to see her again now and then at doll meets. For her there will be an Atelier Momoni doll moving in soon . It's going to be a Momoni in Cocoa skin. Ever since I saw the Nena 02 Reira sculpt at the last LDoll, I wanted a Momoni doll. Now it's going to be a Momoni instead of a Reira, but I am really excited. And I think that I'll be doing better with the Momoni size as I think that she will be able to fit a lot of the clothes of my other mini sized girls. Photo by Ateleier Momoni

Ich darf also ganz stolz verkünden: wir haben die sechste Woche und ich habe bisher mindestens 15 Dollfotos gemacht dieses Jahr. Wenn das so weitergeht, wäre ich wirklich zufrieden. :D Hier ist übrigens eines der letzten Fotos die ich gemacht habe: Michelle, die gerade dabei ist, ihren Stil neu zu entdecken. Eigentlich ist Michelle ja eine professionelle Tänzerin und privat sollte sie eigentlich immer Kleidung in diesem Stil tragen. Also viele Röcke, weiche, fließende, stretchige Stoffe, in denen man bequem laufen kann, eher gedämpften und/oder pastellige Farben, etc. Nun ja, wie man sieht, bevorzugt sie doch eher den schrillen Stil ;). For now. Aber ich denke mal längerfristig bekommt sie dann doch andere Klamotten.

So, I thought it was about time that I will let you know what I have been up to lately. I already started preparing some items a couple of weeks ago, but I will be definitely making more in the coming months. As usually I have made hats . And this year be prepared for a lot more colors. (Is there interest for some more plush hats for the tinies, too?) Then there will be a little bit of doll jewelry and other funny accessories . Stay tuned, I'm going to post a couple of items, soon :). Cloche hat, size 6-7,5 , color: yellow
