Custom faceups, mods, and the like
Lately I’ve been more into boy BJD, and since Volks is slow to release any male DD and the Smart Doll boy didn’t win my heart, I’ve been seeking alternatives. I’m still working on my boy-Anais faceup (almost done!) but meanwhile I also got inspired to make a boyish DDH-07 custom. Working on two fellas…
Over the holiday break I had a chance to finish the faceup for Innocentsake’s custom Mariko, Rem. She may look innocent but really she’s trouble! I had a lot of fun working on her and the result is really gorgeous. Definitely makes me want to repaint my own Mariko, someday.

I need to make the lens part slightly larger since the metallic paper isn’t flexible at all. The prints cost about $2 per 8×10 sheet which makes…
Earlier this winter I acquired a DDH-09 head (they aren’t too pricey if you find the right auction) and now that the weather’s nicer I finally gave her a faceup. I think the 09 head looks similar to Volks idolm@ster girls, and that inspired me to give her a look similar to Ranko or Takane.…
