It's been a hot minute since I've posted on here. I have quite a bit of work to share since I had Covid-19 again the first two weeks of August. I have been posting the collages to the Examples section here, along with some new owner pics as well.
Despite this run of Covid being mild, it still fatigued me horribly and it's taken me quite a while to get back into the swing of working on commissions. I have finished 5 faceups, 2 body blushes, and some fantasy parts since then. Today I will only share the work I still completed in August, otherwise it's just too long of a blog post. Things to share are a Fairyland MNF Alicia, a Popovy Sisters Blue Jay and her body, and a Soom Heliot Fantasy head from the Cosmos release. Without further ado, onto the pictures and ramblings under the break!

I've been a bit scattered this month due to various reasons, but I was able to finish 3 more faceups, so that's a positive end for this month for sure. Two commissions, and one I squeezed in for myself as well after a setback with one commission that is still a WIP, but that is okay, I am able to continue on it this week.
I do have a couple WIPs on my desk currently, and 2 more incoming from April (shipping from the USA to Austria can be really, really slow!). Once I get through those, I will reopen slots. Currently I am aiming for mid to late June for opening slots again. So keep your eyes peeled, I will post here for sure when I am able to take on new commissions! Anyway, today I'm going to show an April Story Juliet with an eye mod, my Dollzone Minas, and a Gem of Doll Capricorn plus her horns. Without further ado, onto the pictures under the read more break! Thank you so much to everyone that took advantage of my birthday sale, it makes me really happy to have such a positive response. You guys are really making me feel loved! I am about to close slots again until I work through all these commissions that are incoming. I have the best clients I swear!
Anyway, I have a lot of new work to show! Today I will show the detail shots of the Dream Valley Zhao and his fantasy parts, a set of Doll Family-H SD sized male jointed hands, a Lillycat Lyse, my MYOU DouDou, a Felix Doll Brownie NeNe, and a Dollzone Miss Kitty and her ears. Without further ado, onto some pictures under the read more break! Another rotation around the sun and I am a year older as of yesterday. This past year has been full of ups and downs, making me sick at times. I'm going to ease gently into this new year and keep my expectations modest haha. I didn't extend the contract of the job past my trial month, so now I am back to looking for something more fitting.
Since it was my 33rd birthday on April 1st, how about a special birthday sale? Commission one service, and get the second at 33% off! Discount will be applied to the smaller amount. I'm officially reopening slots for this month as I am nearly done with all my outstanding commissions! By the time the new commissions arrive I should be done with the others. Anyway, I got some faceups to share here! One is a Volks SD Belle in pure skin normal, and the other is my Iplehouse EID Camilla in peach gold skin. I have a couple more things to document, so those I will share in another post. Without further ado, onto some pictures under the read more break! It's been a good while since I have posted a blog entry here, so it's time to amend that! I have been a busy bee since the last post, and I started a new full time job. Currently I am still finding the balance between doing commissions and working full time, so please bear with me. I will be opening slots come April, since I am making good progress through my current commissions.
Dolls I will show today are a Resinsoul Ju, a Doll Leaves Lan, a small MissNekotaku Chibihana, and to finish posting the faceups for February I will also post my Limhwa EOS Nina. This month so far I have finished two faceups, and I have a couple more on my desk to complete. Once that is all done, I will reopen slots. So without further ado, onto the pictures below the read more break! I was busy in November, and now in December too, so I got a couple of new things to show! I repainted my Lost Chronicles Allurial, and two commission faceups on a Faewoods Dolls Orchidaceae and an Immortality of Soul (old) Jaguar.
I have a good start on my remaining commissions as well, so those should be done soon once the weather stops pouring rain or being too humid. Anyway, without further ado, onto some pictures below the break! As promised, here is the second blog post showcasing the remainder of the work I've gotten done this month. I have everything packed up and ready to go home now, with address labels and custom forms.
Today to show I have a Fantasy Doll Amber which I dyed and painted, a Goblin Tales Baby Mossling, a Flower & Junior Mizi.W, and my Dollzone April. Without further ado, onto some pictures under the break! I have been such a busy bee this past month, and have lots of new work to show. So much in fact that I will need to split them up over two blog posts as to not be utterly overwhelming. It really is a lot!
Today I will show my Volks YoSD Ayumu, a Dollshe Molly, and my Resinsoul Ai, who is my 500th completed faceup. This also means I will post my giant faceup collage. I will need to start a new one! Without further ado, onto the pictures under the cut! I have finished quite a few faceups recently, so I have a lot to share today! A couple are for myself, and some commissions too. My slots are still open, and I have only a couple more to get through before I can send this batch back.
Faceups today are on an Asleep Eidolon Col, LoongSoul Black Dragon Xunalong, then 2 Smart Doll Cortex heads, and a Lost Chronicles Allurial. The Loongsoul and the Lost Chronicle heads are both for me. Without further ado, onto some pictures under the break! I have managed to send off all the remaining boxes of commissions I had completed so it was time to re-open slots! If you've been waiting for a chance to commission me, now is the time!
Anyway, I have a couple of new faceups to share here today! In today's post I will show a Doll Leaves Evan with the long elf ears, a LoongSoul ShenLuo beast version (whose faceup I don't really like how it turned out, but I will redo it at a later date), and a Telesthesia Doll Long Tianqi. All of them are my own dolls. Without further ado, onto the pictures under the break! It's been quite a while since I've posted a blog update here, so for once I am doing the FYI first and then I will go over the new work I've completed. It's quite a bit, some personal work, and I will put the images under the read more break as usual.
The FYI I will keep above it as I feel it is important to make it properly visible without needing to open the blog post. ------- The FYI: I've really dropped the ball for several months now, and I would like to apologize for that. I've been struggling with my mental health more so than usual, and dealing with the post-Covid-19 effects has been draining and tiring. I lost my job right when I got sick with Covid-19 and have been on sick leave since trying to recover both physically and mentally. I'd also like to thank everyone who has or wants to commission me for your patience. My communication has been spotty at best the last 7 months... I am almost done with my humongous commission backlog, there's one left where I am waiting on the approval on the mod-plan before I dive into that one as well. The rest just need to be mailed (though every remaining box requires custom forms). Since July 1st, the EU has implemented a new system for taxing packages and goods from abroad (outside of the EU). There is no more minimum threshold for avoiding VAT charges (which are 20% of the declared value in Austria), which certainly puts a damper on things... I am still willing to accept non-EU commissions, but please be aware that the client/commissioner will be accountable for the custom fees. Another thing I want to touch on is that I can only accept 1 full body commission per openings. And the more complex it is the longer it's gonna take me. I'm sorry, I just don't want to fall as far behind as this past year. Thank you for understanding! ------ New Work: Now that that is all written down, let me go over what sculpts I worked on the past few months: For faceups I repainted my Dollzone Daomiao-2 (again) and for body work I finished up the Doll Leaves 43cm V2 Girl body blush, as well as 3 sets of Resinsoul MSD Jointed Hands. Without further ado, onto some pictures under the break! I've been quite the busy bee since the last time I posted, despite the frequently cruddy weather. I'm slowly getting back on track of things and packed up all my finished commissions to ready them for shipping to their owners.
I would also like to apologize for my lack of communication lately, there's been a lot of stress in my family life along with a worsening of my mental state, but I am slowly pulling myself together again. I am bound and determined to answer the last couple of emails to confirm shipping addresses and quotes, as well as fill out the customs forms for each one. Anyway, things to show today are a Withdoll Ash elf, a modded Smart Doll Chaos Envisage, the Dollzone Venus Halo body (B45-017) with her fantasy/SciFi parts, and a Volks SD Saki. Without further ado, onto the pictures under the cut! I am finally back home and on the mend from pneumonia in both of my lungs due to Covid-19. I'm not fully recovered yet (that'll take time) but I am regaining strength everyday. I will though resume working on commissions this weekend as I am no longer contagious and can handle the commissions again without risking infecting my clients with this nasty virus.
I did receive a few more commissions for faceups, and gotta finish up some other full body ones as well. Once I re-open slots again, I will post here and on the home-page. Anyway today I have only two faceups to show, a Fairyland Pukifee Cupid in tan skin, and my Dollzone Mann in peach skin. Without further ado, onto the pictures under the break! I have several new things to show, but for once I will go into the FYI first before I show the newest work:
I recently lost my job, and due to how they let me go, I cannot get unemployment until April because I am technically still employed until the end of this month (March 2021). I am gonna have to be frugal with my spending, to stretch my savings as much as I can. Don't worry, my wife and I have an emergency fund that covers 3 months of our expenses. Fortunately my wife is still employed, so there's a good chance we can stretch the emergency fund even further. As to what this means for my commissions, is that I raised my prices. I've been undercharging for ages considering the skill and experience that I have. Thank you for understanding! All current commissions that I have agreed to take on will remain at the quoted price. So no sudden extra charges for those! -------------- Now, for the work I want to show I have my Dragondoll Cheng, a Gulliver Small Studio Xiaoxi Micro Mermaid, and the Iplehouse J.I.D. Body. Be warned, the last set of pictures has doll nudity. Without further ado, onto some pictures under the break! The weather has been a rollercoaster here, so working on stuff has been difficult. But I do have several things to post today, such as the last faceup of 2020. I haven't been doing so well health-wise, but I am arranging for the help that I need to get back on track with things.
Today I will post my Doll Chateau Elizabeth, a Dollzone Venus Halo, and a Modoll Hide Matsumoto minimee head. Without further ado, onto the pictures under the break! |
