Custom faceups, mods, and the like
Pipos recently released a new line of 1/6 vinyl dolls, and since I’ve long been a fan of their cute cats I decided to pick up a few. ‘Mariko‘ is 19cm tall and has few points of articulation compared to other vinyl dolls like Obitsu. The style and scale are more similar to vinyl fashion…
While I was working on my custom Kos-Mos project, I was also finally giving Melty her custom faceup. She’d been hanging out with me quite some time while I finalized sealant experiments and waited for the perfect weather. Summer arrived, and I could get back to faceups again, though Kos-Mos made it to the finish…
Kos-mos has been here for a while now but I had difficulty deciding on how to repaint her faceup. Eventually I settled on a glam/fantasy look with lots of lush eyelashes and more colorful eyeshadow than I typically use. It’s been a few months since I did faceups for Reimu and my Dollce head using…
DD Reimu was on my wishlist for a while, so when she showed up for a good price on the Dollfie Dreams forum I couldn’t resist. I tested her as a catboy with the DDS boy body, but wasn’t quite sure if it worked or not. Looks cute with the DearSD outfit, though! Blank Reimu shows…
Recently I acquired a Dollce ‘A’ head, an original design they’ve made for custom 60cm dolls. Unfortunately I’ve not gotten any email responses from their contact email so I had to order through a proxy service, but I bet if you’re in Tokyo you can pick the heads up easily at their shop. One nice…
Ever since I pre-ordered DD Sheryl Nome, my intent was to repaint her, but I just kept putting it off and she ended up neglected all year. Finally, I had no more excuses to postpone so I figured out a concept I was mostly happy with and got to work! I suppose all the dead-end…
As 2016 comes to it’s conclusion, I’m wrapping up a few last faceups and making plans for the next year. Seems that my long-delayed Sheryl and Rosie faceups won’t be finished in December, but I’ve at least made some progress. I was able to finish up this cute DDH-10 girl, whose head I picked up…
Lately I’ve been working on custom faceups again, and since I’ve taken on a couple requests from my doll pals I decided for the sake of efficiency to finish up a couple of my own long-delayed faceup projects as well. The first request was for a custom Rem from the anime Re:Zero -Starting Life in…
