hey! Work on my new doll has been in progress! it's on a bit of a hiatus atm because I need more clay and Xmas is destroying my wallet!

I am trying new techniques this time! I used my finer wool-fibre to sand and a make-up brush to paint, I got the idea to use a make-up brush since they are soft and meant to transfer foundation to your face without streaks, also just for the fact the brush was bigger than the paint brushes I own and I can't afford to spend £20 on a paintbrush, since going to buy cheap products will only give me a negative result when I want to move forward.


I've decided on trying to make this doll ball jointed! it's complex but I need to challenge myself to progress, don't I?


Also he is my first little Elven dolly! ^.^


Also another thing I'm trying out is to not use paint and use pastels, they blend better and give a more life-like effect!


just about finished! I am very pleased with the outcome of the changes I made! the difference is just amazing!


I was impatient and tried to make his own wig here, I failed.
No word of a lie I got his wig in the post the next day! 
I had to custom fit it to his head as it was slightly too big, that was a nightmare since it was a very long wig!! and I had to cut and style it which took about 3/4 hours. This is difficult since I had nothing to prop the wig on. I tried to improvise and use things like my hairspray can but it wasn't going to work, hahaha,

Anyway, his head is complete now and he patiently awaits the creation of his body!

Set sail~!

hey guys!! ..so I've been quite busy recently and haven't had time to update or work on Cap'n ;w; that's why he took so long to finish~ (or "polish" since IMO my works constantly a WIP.) Anyway- did you hear me right?! YES!! captain is finally done with!!!!!

Firstly, I finished re-making &sewing his jacket in silk. I made part of it a tailcoat which worked out pretty awesomely!! and then I started to re-attach his chains onto the jacket. I also went over the black part of his shirt with silk.
the jacket was the most tiring thing to do.. I looked at sewing machines the other day though and am going to get one when I have the money! \(^o^)/
so I also went to Hobbycraft finally.. XD 

I brought new fabric for Cap'ns bandanna and he also had more hair added as I thought it looked a bit flat -'w'- (ps: did I tell you I re-done his face? his features are much more striking now!)
after this I attached skull-charms to his jacket, fluff & chains around his boots!
for the back of his jacket I added lace to the shoulders, for more effect from the front. I made a lace bow for the back & added a purple rhinestone in the centre ^.^ also, can you notice? I've started to do gold detailing on the edges of the jacket!
made&added buttons to the jacket (&arms)
(this is when I finished and passed out)
added detailing to captains bandanna!! and created soles on his shoes~ which were painted!
(you can see the diff on the boots if you compare the pic below with the similar one further up)
Captain thinks~ finally you can stop removing my head LOL

views from the front and back! ✨


looks like he's being arrested loool
so!! I can work on my next dolly now! this time I think ill do a artwork before I create it. since its meant to be easier that way? o_O 
I do prefer to create from imagination haha XD 
I shall post with teasers when it's done~
see you!!!! 😘

|Grey Lenses & Re-tweaking Captain|

I was a but silly as I couldn't find my prescription and ordered wrong lense prescription ;( so now I brought lenses that I can't wear~ and they looks so pretty :( *i tried them on but they gave me a headache*


argh I'm rather annoyed about that >_< I miss wearing lenses but it was my own impatience fault~ damn being blind & going blinder~

Anyways I have been working on the captain in my spare time ^w^

things I edited: 
•re-sew the belts to show more of the waist.
•burned all fraying off.
•painted boots brown.
•made new ENTIRE trousers so the legs are thicker and stitching appears neater! 
•painted detailing on the blue sash. edge detail and writing around the waist.
•painted the nails 
•had to re-do the neck as it broke..
•stuffed body more.
~and still currently re-sewing the entire jacket with black silk~

pictures of the progress so far! :3


sooo much of my time is going Into Captain atm! I have to totally re-do the jacket collar to make it more dramatic~in fact the whole jacket wasn't dramatic enough really~~! I also re-made the cuff kings and plan to add more details so look forwards to finishing that! I'm not going to finish customising him until I feel he is at a standard I can accept. :3 Making every little thing by hand is difficukt!

I feel so tired recently and today I felt really sick ( ꒪Д꒪) I think it's because I forgot to eat.. 

I keep hurting my hand..first I accidentally ripped some skin off with my nail when I opened a packet(damn long nails, but I need them ><) then today I cut my finger on a shelf strip whilst cleaning them x-x imgah I know it's just a little cut but it hurt so much >~<


also my nose/throat have been terrible since I had a cold like 3 months ago lolol. I can breathe out my nose but it feels blocked? and dry >~< hmm why could it be??..

Circle Lenses!

Just ordered some new Circle Lenses from Pinky Paradise!

I ordered EOS Dolly Eye Grey, which are these ones!


I love intense lenses so i look forward to trying these!
I've purchased the EOS Dolly Eye Brown and EOS Dolly Eye Blue before and really loved them! 
The Brown was my favorite as it looked almost golden *¬*

I just went to see Kick Ass 2 today! 


I enjoyed the first movie and this one didn't disappoint ~even though it's a sequel and we all know most of the time sequels usually suck pretty bad..
I think the fight scenes could have been longer though. Some of the new characters were funny!
So much love for Hit Girl! Haha, shes awesome! The ending made me wonder if there will be a 3rd movie but that might just be the end, idk..
Red Mist/The Motherfucker is just hilarious! 
His supervillan team are pretty evil, Mother Russia was quite cool  
Don't really want to spoil the movie so I wont say too much!

I am really addicted to playing this game called Happy Street on iPhone atm!! 
I don't really like mobile games but this one is pretty cute and fun! You get to build your own little village and can change the characters clothings, I stayed up till 6am playing it last night haha!

I brought some bells to attach to my doll a while ago! I shall take pictures and do a review on my Circle Lenses soon! Goodnight! :3

Adventure to West Wycombe Park! ♪

I went to visit West Wycombe park the other day! It was beautiful! ꒰ •ॢ  ̫ -ॢ๑꒱✩
A lot of movies were filmed in this area and a reason I always wanted to visit is because the opening scene of The Labyrinth was shot there!! ✨

(Pictures to refresh your memory :DD)

Here's a photo I found of what scene I am talking about! ♪(´ε` )

                        

It's quite a magical and stunning place, also it's very very huge! I didn't even go to all the temples because I wanted to find this bridge!!

 This is near the entrance, I rushed towards the lake with excitement! I saw this little bridge in between the trees and I could see the Dashwood's house beyond the river!
 ^ An interesting temple with a statue of Venus on it, I went into the little cave- curiosity gets me! It was just a tiny space in there though !
I climbed up top to see the view next to Venus (;
Little river behind the temple
The Lake was very huge!!
I was running around this like a child XD
As I wondered away I discovered there are a lot of temples to see here
I was gonna look at this one but I really just wanted to find the music temple!
As I went begone the trees, look what I spotted- THE MUSIC TEMPLE!!! :D
Now I knew that the bridge must be around here somewhere!
Such glassy water!! We also came across a little fall..
I forgot what you call this ^ ^;
Very close to the water here. Can almost step on it! ^ u ^*
Closer to the temple!
Pretty bridge I could see !
I crossed the bridge to go to the island closest to the music temple, it was so magical 
Anyhow I did end up finding the rock bridge in the scene!
Just had to touch it and sit down thinking of all the people that had been here before..
After finding the bridge I went to view the house! 
There was a cute little garden out back with a sundial in it~!
The ceilings paintings were amazing an this artwork continued even more so inside the house.
Sadly< no photos were allowed inside the house as the familys descendants are still living there. They had a very cute little puppy! *u *
Then I just sat down and stared at the bridge for a while before I went home (笑)(笑)
They held mock battles on the lake which sounded so cool and entertaining! I'd love to had done that! :P

Well that's all for my adventure! ★
I hope you enjoyed reading about it and the pictures! 
I might go and visit the Hellfire caves next! ✨
