Sleeping Princess MDD

My Sleeping Princess is borrowing Lumi's body for this photoshoot. It was a good chance to try some of my MSD-size clothes on the MDD body - they're a bit big in the torso but the fit is otherwise fine.
I'm aiming for a soft, antique/dreamy feel by using a lot of plain white props and some post process tricks :)

Sleeping Princess

I got the Parabox 'Sleeping Princess' head a while ago, but hadn't gotten around to painting it until today. It's a really cute sculpt, but better suited to a 40-50cm body. On the DDS it looks odd, but hopefully she'll look nice on the MDD body. The skintone is a good match for Volks NS, she wears a 7-8" wig, and looks best with 20-22mm eyes.

Leo faceup fixes

Leo's peach lipstick has been bothering me for a while, so now that the weather's nicer I decided to edit her faceup. Her lips were re-colored with pastels and just a little bit of watered-down gloss. While I was at it, I thinned her eyebrows a bit as well.

It was also an experiment to see if I could modify a MSC-sealed faceup. Using solvent (like brush cleaner) to remove the lip color leaves a noticeable edge where sealant is partly removed as well. To fix this, I used a fine-grit sandpaper to soften the edge of the sealant, cleaned that up a bit with magic eraser, and then re-sealed on top. Worked like a charm!

Pink sweetie dress

Mirielle models a new dress with some festive lights in back :)
The new jacket is too poofy, seems that I need to start using interfacing for lined clothing.

Hdd-04, Yoko style

I imagine her as a young Yoko, although she looks great as a blond, too!

More fun with basic heads

Concept for Yoko-type hdd-04 : some sanding required!

Erio wig

Wig arrived!
Dollzone wig quality is crummy... but at least I don't feel bad giving it a cut and style treatment.

60cm vs 11cm

Neris and bitty 'bitsu!
The new 11cm obitsu are tons of fun. The 'Muffin' head is made by parabox and also fits some larger obitsus.

Still need a blue wig to be proper, though :)

New head - SQ Lab Kaoru (as DD Erio?)

Last week I received my order from SQ Labs, a Korea-based maker of resin anime-style doll heads and accessories. Previously these were only available through auctions or second hand, but now the creator's own website allows for easy purchase. Shipping was blazing fast as well!

Here's a look at the blank Kaoru head, eyes blocked out for easy concepting-


My first concept was to do another Yuki-inspired head like Leocadie. It seemed alright, but didn't quite click - plus, I already have a Leocadie! ;)


Moe wasn't working for me either.


Then I remembered a really adorable character from the series Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko. She had all my favorite ingredients- big shiny eyes, blushing cheeks, a cute smile, and lots of sparklies!
Thus my plan is to turn Kaoru into the weird-but-cute Erio Touwa.
