New Work from Mar'25 :: April 11th, 2025

4/11/2025

Hello and welcome to the blog post of April 2025 showcasing work from March 2025. It was also my birthday on the 1st! Sorry that I didn't have an event this year. I've also sadly come down with the crud since Wednesday and am struggling to shake it. But I figured I could at least make this post while I am home sick. Funnily enough, every faceup finished last month was done for my wife.
Today I get to show a Soom MD Rico/Serin Romantic from the original mermaid release back in 2014, a Magic Mirror Orla with her matching sleeping face, and a Soom MD Shale Romantic, the original unicorn version from 2011.
Without further ado, onto the images under the break!

Commissions OPEN + New Work from Feb'25 :: March 9th, 2025

3/9/2025

Welcome back to the blog portion of my website! February was a busy month doll wise, where I finished up some larger commissions. I did the body blush for the Dream Valley Cedar, along with his fantasy parts, 2 pairs of antlers, and his staff. I also finished the double mani- and pedicures for the Gem of Doll Nymph, and I painted two heads for myself, a Volks DDH-06 and a Dollzone Little Snow.

Before we jump into the picture sharing portion of of the blog entry, I want to say that commissions are open! I got through everything that I needed to and am open for new requests. So please feel free to reach out through my contact form or other platforms and I'll be happy to give a quote!

Now without further ado, onto some pictures under the cut!

New Work from January - Feb 9th, 2025

2/9/2025

Hello and welcome back to the blog portion of my website! Today I am going to be sharing a couple of finished faceups and a preview of some things that were still WIP by the time January was over.
I had a decent month for working on large projects, but I haven't finished them all yet, so I will be saving those pieces for this month's work reveal.

I painted a Dream Valley Cedar and started on his body and fantasy parts, did a matching faceup on my wife's second Sprouting Dragon Zilu head, and I painted a Gem of Doll Nymph, who still needs her mani- and pedicures.
So without further ado, onto more pictures under the cut!

Last Work of 2024 - Jan 22nd, 2025

1/22/2025

Hello and welcome back to the blog page of my website! I hope everyone had a good slide into the new year and have been doing well so far. I do not have terribly much to show for December 2024, just my new Dream Valley Vanora and her ears, as well as an Akhmel Dolls Tomoe open eye faceplate along with his head-wings.

I've been struggling with getting going on my current batch of commissions, but I am finally going to be able to dive right in as I got everything sealed and prepped for painting. So in February I should be able to open up new commissions again!
But anyway, without further ado, onto the images under the break!

New Work from Nov'24 :: Dec 24th, 2024

12/24/2024

Well I really dragged my feet on posting last month's faceup work. I was struggling in November and the weather was utter garbage to boot, making it hard to work on things. But I was able to paint one commission (Doll Leaves Jeremy) and I repainted one of my own (Impldoll Azalea Elf).
The past several days I've gotten hit with the crud and my lungs feel squeaky, so I am not risking coughing all over the WIP commissions I have on me. Nor do I want to snot into my mask...But anyway, without further ado, onto some pictures under the read more break!

FYI + New Work from October - Nov 4th, 2024

11/4/2024

Hello everyone, and welcome back to my blog section! I had a busy month of October outside of dolls, but I was able to paint 2 things, one commission and another for myself. It’s been a calm year for commissions (sadly), but I am grateful for the ones I’ve had so far!
I got to paint a classic blast from the past, a Hujoo Girl that got a faceup, and my own Dream Valley Eve, which was a new arrival to my collection, that got the full spa treatment. It’s really fun for me to paint dolls, can you tell?

First thing first, the FYI:
I’ll be leaving for the USA mid December, which means if anyone wants to commission me still this year and have me send out the finished dolls before I fly, I will be accepting commission forms through Friday, November 8th, 2024. I also need the parts to be sent right away, so that I have time to do my best work possible.
Thanks for understanding!

And now onto the pictures under the read more break!

New Work from September + FYI :: Oct 25th, 2024

10/25/2024

Hello and welcome back to the blog section of my website! I had a light doll customizing month of September, repainting one of my own dolls (Dream Valley Bor) and giving my wife's newest addition (Sprouting Dragon Zilu) a faceup.
I did pick up a few more commissions since then, but the mail is slow at trickling them in.
As for the FYI:
If you plan on commissioning me this year still, please get in your requests in the next 2-3 weeks, as I'll be traveling the second half of December to spend the holiday's with my in-laws. Thank you for understanding!

Now that that's out of the way, let's get to some pictures under the cut!

New Work from July'24 :: Aug 25th, 2024

8/25/2024

Hello and welcome back to the blog part of my website! I took my sweet time with getting around to posting about what I painted in July.
Honestly, it wasn't much, but at least I managed to do a new a faceup on my Mystic Kids Miri, and I finally was able to finish up the BonBon Galaxy Killer Whale body and hair pieces! It's as I always say, some is better than none.

Without further ado, onto the pictures under the read more break!

Hello and welcome back for Part 2 of work from June 2024! I hope you have had a lovely weekend and are ready for another blog post! My weekend has been nice and relaxing, and fun too after meeting with some friends in the hobby.
Today I'm gonna share the pictures of the Soom SG Chrom, Hopeful Creation Ana, Pipos R.PI Charlotte and her hands and tail, and a FenJieXian Elf Series 1.0 Number 1 and a Number 3.

New Work from June :: Part 1 - July 19th, 2024

7/19/2024

Hello and welcome back to the blog portion of my website! I had a very productive June completing 10 faceups, and a few fantasy parts. For that July has been slow for me, but I was able to return several commissions back to their owners.
Things I painted are a Dollzone April (classic), Dream Valley Alter and his horns, Haru Casting Day, Sprouting Dragon Zilu, Loongsoul ShenLuo Western White Tiger, Soom SG Chrom, Hopeful Creation Ana, Pipos R.PI Charlotte and her hands and tail, and a FenJieXian Elf Series 1.0 Number 1 and Number 3.
I will only post the first 5 for this post, because I know no one is gonna want to sit through that long of a blog post. Hell, I'm exhausted just thinking about writing about 10 faceups in a single post. So yeah, let's get to part 1 under the break!

New Work from May - Jun 21st, 2024

6/21/2024

Hello and welcome back to the blog section of my site. It's about dang time I posted the detail shots of work completed in May 2024. It was a light month for me, so I only painted 3 faceups and finished most of a complex body blush with tattoos that goes with one of the faceups.
I got to paint a BonBon Galaxy Bone Fish and a Killer Whale faceplate respectively (still need to finish the body from the latter), and I painted an Island Doll First Shukaku (new) on the first 46cm Strong Boy body.

Before I jump into the main part of the blog, I wanted to thank you all for sticking with me and commissioning me. It's really helpful in my current situation to have this support. So thank you!
Oh, and I restructured my examples page for how I display completed faceups. There was a bug on my website editing web platform that caused all of my faceup examples to just, poof. The software engineers were able to fix the issue after some hours, and restored my images, but they were in the wrong order and without the descriptions. So I finally took the plunge and redid that section. I don't know if I should post older examples into the Glam section, since I've trying to stay within the last 2 years. Please let me know in the comments what you think, thanks!!

Now without further ado, onto the pictures under the break!

New Work from April 2024 - May 28th, 2024

5/28/2024

Well this is embarrassing, I completely forgot to post a blog for the faceups I finished in April, whoops. Well, as they say, better late than never!
I did not get much done in April sadly, only two faceups and a tiny body/fantasy blushing. But hey, at least I got something to show!
The things I did get done and worked on were commissions, so I am glad they are completed to the clients' satisfaction. I worked on a Luts SeniorDelf Karis and I fully customized a Penny's Box Antu Neon centaur.
It'll be a short post today, as I don't have much to show. But without further ado, onto the pictures and rambling under the break!

New Work from Feb 2024 - Mar 15th, 2024

3/15/2024

Hello and welcome back to my blog, folks! I had an easy month this past February and only completed 2 commission faceups as the weather was cruddy and I didn't feel like redoing any of my own dolls, since I did so many the previous month.
I painted a Soom MD Serin/Rico open eyed head in normal skin from the first release back in 2014, and I repainted the YBee Doll Nora in strawberry pink skin that I had painted in 2023 originally. It's been a hot minute on that one though!
I also had started on a full package commission on a Dream Valley Olivia, but I wasn't able to finish her until this current month (March).
Anyway, without further ado, onto some pictures under the break!

New Work from Jan 2024 - Feb 11th, 2024

2/11/2024

Hello and welcome back to my blog everyone! I had a busy month of repainting my own dolls as I hadn't gotten any commissions in yet, but felt the need to keep busy!
I repainted some of my older dolls, and a few newer ones, along with a set to sell. I was trying to be conservative with my MSC, because I'd been struggling to find some in stock within the EU, but I was finally successful just this past Friday. I'd been waiting on a restock of it since early December, so I suppose it was good I didn't have any commissions in that time, hah!
But anyway, the dolls I repainted are my Dollzone Po, Dollzone Stramonium, Dollzone Shoyo, Fairyland LTF Juri 2013 x3, and a set of Fairyland LTF Rendia open and sleeping eye faceplates, which I intend to list for sale.
So without further ado, onto some pictures and rambling under the break!

Last of 2023 - Jan 16th, 2024

1/16/2024

Hello and welcome to the new year of 2024! I hope everyone had a good slide and 2024 is gentle on all of you.
December was a light month in regards to doll customization, as I had no commissions at that time (nor since yet), so I repainted some of my own dolls. Both dolls are new additions to my collection that I bought secondhand from a dear local friend. One I had no clue what to do with, and the other was a dream come true.

If you or anyone else you know needs a faceup, please get in touch through my contact form or Instagram! I enjoy working with clients and I have a quick turnaround time, especially when I have nothing on my plate.

But anyway, in December I painted a modded April Story Juliet and a Fairyland MNF Ryeon. Without further ado, onto the pictures and rambling under the break!
