Dollfie Dream
It’s been a busy month and the doll lab is a bit of a mess thanks to some electrical issues that required moving all the dolls and furniture around. Fortunately that’s now resolved, but in the meanwhile I kept working on my latest sewing project- Ohtori Academy uniforms to fit Nanami and Anthy. Besides Utena…
It’s been a minute since I painted a Love Live DD, but I’m finally following up Kizuna and Airy with a custom painted DD Haruka Amami as Honoka and DD Reimu as Hanayo. I’ll be the first to tell you that the Haruka sculpt isn’t my fave, but I do think she benefited a lot…
