Spent my night finally converting the pants portion of a Build-a-Bear sweats set into a baggy tshirt for Hiei. The collar is a little janky (nothing fabric glue can’t fix), but overall, pretty happy with how it turned out. Used one of my other baggy shirts for the boys as a pattern haha.

Been wanting to get Hiei some more loud 90s clothes, so this is certainly a good first step. 😆

The wig looks gorgeous on her, even if it might not fit perfectly haha.

If it makes you feel better, one of my boys, Vergil, has a wig that's too big for him too and I ended up cutting out a wedge of the semi-hard cap and it's being held together with duct tape and wishes.

Melody got a new wig, which I lovingly call "styled with leave in conditioner and curl gel". I do like it on her, it's super soft and shiny, but it is too big. It literally stays on with eye putty under the cap.

I got it from Natrume on Etsy and it is made of Angora Mohair and is a hardcap wig. The wig was offered in many sizes between 14cm to 24cm circumference, but Melody has a 19.5-20cm head and that was exactly a size not available. I could either go way too small at 18.5cm, which with a hardcap wig would not have fit, or I could go for the 20.5cm wig that is roomy, which I did get.

Oh well, at least her gorgeous tresses cover the gapping of the wigcap. I will commission eventually a local good friend of mine to make her her "awakened" wig, which needs to be opalescent and with black tips. Goes with her lore!

Melody is a Doll Chateau Snow Nymph with Ashuradark eyes and a faceup by me over at @izasfaceups

@guiltyidealist (about this post)

sort of but also not entirely? the current flag was one of several options i created alongside the original yellow version of the design. i actually liked it the most but put it aside out of concern it might be confused for the neutrois flag (though now i think they look pretty distinct)

i resurrected it in response to that ask in hopes of further discussion in the community but that person never responded, and the post sat at like, 5 notes for several months.

much later discussions started happening regarding accessibility issues (eye-strain bc of the yellow) so i brought it out again and THAT'S when the white stripe flag took off. we'd probably still be using the yellow flag if not for that. i still see it around sometimes

yeah absfhtosbkcshfjfjzbqhdgdh!!!!!!1 is p much exactly how i feel lmao with a good helping of ??????????????

three out of five of my socials have camspam taken goddammit

Changed up Rie’s outfit and she’s rocking her new mullet.

Working on archiving more old doll posts and found this! Luts KDF Yuz and Souldoll Kid Hunoi were some of my old original choices to shell Amaya and Nori.

Honestly, I didn't drift far off from the vibes for their sculpts haha. I clearly had a very specific idea of how their faces looked.

Oh geez…I think I may have FINALLY found the doll forms of Amaya Yu and her brother Nori Yu…jdbskabdj. Can’t wait to see more pictures of that new Romantic body LUTS is releasing…

Since I had everyone off of their shelves, I decided to think over updating their displays. I'd been contemplating getting some risers for the minis so I could make more use of the vertical space in the bookcase, but then (after hours of looking at different display risers online lmao) I remembered I own a pile of manga I very rarely reread or look through! Plenty of room for the dolls to sit on top of, as well as in front. :)

I tried to primarily use series that my doll characters exist within (either as canon characters or my own creations), but since I don't own a lot of media physically, I had to use a few fillers haha (such as Paradise Kiss, Saiyuki, Dragon Knights, and Kamui).

Also made use of one of the shelves I had to take out of the bookcase to riser some of the big dolls up that are above the roombox (as well as plopped my Devil May Cry books behind Vergil and Qianna). There's this chair I've seen on Taobao that I'm thinking of getting two of for Jonathan and Rhonwen to sit on (since I think she'll likely be kicked out of the bookshelf eventually when my Black Cherry Doll girls arrive). Mixed up the Tokyo Ghoul gang a bit too just because (as well as plopped some of my Halloween decor down with them to fill up the extra shelf space).

Glad I thought to use my manga as risers, because that ended up freeing up several spots in my two cube shelves. Hooray for storage space!

Really happy with how the minis look now. They look less shoved away in a corner and like they're actually on display now. Plus, manga spines are always visually appealing.

Shuu back in this look (though the shirt is now a larger size and the color is slightly different RIP). I keep forgetting just how crazy leggy the Switch boys are haha. Very old yaoi art type of build. xD

[struungout]

The favorite child returns! Qianna’s head and hands arrived in the mail today from Komorebi Dolls. :D She turned out so fucking good I cannot handle it jfdkajfsklaf. Absolutely in love with how her lips turned out as well as how her hand blushing looks. Absolute babe.

Here’s the finished images I got from Komorebi Dolls for those that want to see more details.

Pulled myself away from writing and changed Leyla’s outfit into the new SMPdoll clothes I got.

[struungout]

Some swag I either got recently or only just finally plopped on the dolls I got them for but have been too lazy since Resin Rose to bother trying them on lmao.

First up is a pile of plants from one of the Mini Brands blind boxes/balls. I need to get a UV light to finish off the ones in the vases, but overall, I absolutely love them. They'll be great additions to the roombox. c:

Then Priita wearing a lingerie set I got from Denim Dan's Jean Emporium back during Resin Rose. I honestly won't likely use the garter belt and panties (and even if I do, the pants are gonna get modified to have elastic or something since tying them up at the sides is a pain), but the top part is suuuuuper cute! Definitely going to have to hunt for a skirt to match with it for a summery look for her. c:

Next we got Michelle wearing a dress I originally got for Leyla, but it ended up being too big for her. Got it from Striped Green Threads, also during Resin Rose. Priita is wearing a dress I purchased from SapharBJD months ago that finally came in the mail the other day. I'm not super sure about how much I like it haha. I should know better by now not to get set-piece type of dresses and outfits since I like to mix and match. Maybe I can modify it into something that works better for my fashion preferences.

The last three pictures are of Reigen, Kiran, and Olimpia trying on some jeans I ordered from SMPdoll (also months ago). I'm happy to say even the more fitted jeans made for Haru Casting Day fit on the Souldoll Kid boy body. :) My Dollmore Narsha also fits in these jeans I got for my Dust of Dolls Cham girl (though I would need to take her feet off to get them fully on). Always nice to find clothing sources for odd-sized dolls.

Also it's very odd to see Olim's neck fully when she's been in a turtleneck for ages. xD

I really want to splurge some more on clothes for my dolls, especially my larger crew since they have so little in comparison, but ugh, I also really need to go through and attempt to purge doll shit.

[struungout]

Decided to change Amaya’s outfit finally after she’s been sitting in an outfit I just didn’t like as much as I figured I would for months ahaha…

Really need to face the facts that she is a tomboy and prefers the streetwear looks her brothers usually sport lmao.

[struungout]

Don’t think I shared a pictures of Qianna without her glasses on. P;

[struungout]

Been a while since I’ve snapped a picture of Qianna. Naturally it’s gotta be her with her man on a leash lmao.

[struungout]

I love her so much, I’m sure she’ll go to the grave with me bahaha.

Another year is nearly over, so it's time to take a group photo of the doll crew!

Since I spent most of the year saving my money for my Portland trip, as well as spending a pretty penny on a gaming PC (and them doing a lot of gaming lmao), I didn't get very many sculpts sent off to be painted, or even do much in general shopping for the babes (outside of when I was at Resin Rose). My Haru Casting Lime is the only new addition, though not from a lack of trying since I have three other dolls still being made (was really hoping I'd at least have my Bimong boy by this point Dx).

In 2025, I don't expect I'll be buying any more dolls, and instead will focus on getting those I already have customized (because lord knows I have a proper backlog now bahaha).

Here's to hoping the new year won't be so bad, but I won't hold my breath lmao. A hardy good luck to all my fellow USA peeps, it's gonna be nuts, I'm sure (prayer circle the incoming administration gets too busy getting into pissing matches with each other that they have no time to fuck over the rest of us too much).
