New girl is here! I took a few quick photos in the morning, enjoying the sun while it lasts.
Making Resin Eyes – step by step
After doing a few batches of resin eyes, I’ve gotten nice enough results to document the process. It’s not a perfect product, but these type of eyes are a great way to test out designs and create a custom anime character. A few basic safety rules: follow the instructions for these products very precisely, especially…
Lady Wizard set review
With Volks’ last outfit release I had my sights set on the 3 fantasy-themed outfits, and when the click wars came around I was able to narrow my objective to a single set: Lady Wizard. Although the sets sold out very fast I was at least able to acquire my primary target, as well as…
Saber swimsuit

Custom resin eyes for DD

frilly Mariko
Cutie Mariko is modeling one of my home-made outfits this time, with her default wig. Unfortunately the wig has the same issue that other folks had with Saber and Rise wigs – the ponytail style keeps the cap from stretching, making it very hard to get on. I ended up turning it inside-out and carefully…
