I find it most efficient to do a couple faceups at the same time, so while I was repainting Maria and Mariko I also painted up a SWS DDH-22 head. I didn’t have a clear plan when I originally acquired her but after sketching out a few ideas I settled on a jade dragon theme.…
For my next faceup project, I decided to repaint my student Mariko head. I’ve painted a custom Mariko before but my own Mariko ended up in the faceup backlog until now. Before and after I ended up fussing a bit more with this one after I thought I was done also- I realized…
Nice weather is here again so I’ve been working on a batch of faceups from my wishlist. The first to end up completed is Maria Ushiromiya, an older MDD who’s been hanging out behind the scenes for a while. After some cleanup (her eyeholes were pretty roughly cut) she’s got a fresh new look! …
~ Sewing Cute Bunnies for Easter ~ During the last few cold weeks of winter, I got an itch to sew a cute MDD-sized set. The inspiration was this chocolate sprinkle fabric I picked up a while ago- there wasn’t enough to do something big or risky, but it could work as a cute…

If you’re interested in using Volks Dream Choice service to create a custom Dollfie Dream, I’ve created a new guide for it! Right now it only features the options for head sculpts and faceups, but I plan to continue adding more information in the future. I hope it’s helpful! And if you have some photos…
Winter faceups are living dangerously. I learned my lesson a few years ago, when I did a series of faceups in December and January that later developed cracking in the sealant. Not sure if it was the new formulation of MSC Matte, the low temperatures, the humidity, or some combination, but I’ve avoided using…
Technically a 2020 arrival since she’s been at home for a bit and I just got around to doing a photoshoot, but- she’s here! DDH-20 girl! I got suuuuper lucky snagging my DDH-21 girl from the D’Coord online lotto a while ago, but I still had my eye on her pouty sibling, the DDH-20 sculpt.…
