I thought fer sure that the PB body or the articulated Barbies would be the first things to go from my updated sales list, but no. In fact, someone pounced on the bag of Barbie, Obitsu and Cy Girl body parts that I've had sitting around for years, just waiting for the occasion [= never] when I want to try some body bashing. Well, Godspeed, my ( Read more... )

EDIT: All this talk of Lumedoll's creations' aptness for the Library of Intellectum makes me want to rush out and purchase the library assistant, the head librarian, the special collections assistant and the ghost right now!

Dost thou remember Intellectum? I do. It was a city that I created with the help of Daz Studio in August of last year. The ( Read more... )

When I first made Qingting, a Hun type vampire and associate of Chow Bang, she was an American Girl Girls of Many Lands doll on a cut-down Obitsu body, but I didn't like that because it was too tall and the arm fastenings too frail. I now have a new body for her, closer to her original height of 9". See photo below for how I transferred her ( Read more... )

If Will has a somewhat intimidating, very playful Captain Thunderpussy for a muse, Anneka has Leonyssus, a finicky, rather crabby merdude who severely dislikes her control freak tendencies. I have a feeling he's the sort of person who spends lots of time looking in the mirror and combing his hair just to piss her off. Then, when she least expects ( Read more... )

When I first saw that someone on 13doll was selling American Girl's Girls of Many Lands dolls for a steal, one of them called out to me. Spring Pearl, portraying a Cantonese girl in 1857, charmed me with her sweet wondering look and her beautiful, bright, brocaded outfit. She told me right then and there that she was a Hun type vampire, and she ( Read more... )

Originally I wanted a Notdoll Lucy for Little Anneka, but I don't have the money to buy one right now. However, I do have an extra Elfdoll Kathlen awake plate and a sleeping plate. I decided to use Kathlen's built-in smirk and create a mischievous younger version of Anneka on a cut-down Obitsu body. Here she is, waiting for her hair. Apparently, ( Read more... )

My shitty temporary one, a 27cm Obitsu with hacked legs, barely fits her old-fashioned bloomers. She looks fine with clothes on, but the poor quality of her plastic body underneath her clothes bothers me.

Here is Geordie in her current state with no shoes or hair. She is 5.5" tall! I ended up using a pelvis and legs from the same 21 [?] cm Obitsu doll. I took 2.5 cm out of the thighs and approximately the same amount out of the calves. I sacrificed ankle articulation, but the double-jointed knees and all thigh articulation remain functional. Oh yeah ( Read more... )

I had an extra Obitsu upper torso and arms from a 21cm [?] doll, so I tried to create a torso with more toddler-like proportions. The first photo shows what I started with: the default. The second photo shows what I ended up with. I don't know what brand the head is, but I amputated 0.5" in height off the scalp and altered the paint job by Andrea. ( Read more... )
