So yesterday, my friend Tina got to raid my library for a bit while awaiting the arrival of FedEx for my doll delivery.
Last October I ordered an Emily 5StarDoll with normal skin and makeup after quite a bit of looking around and listening to folks who have BJD's already. Much to my delight, she arrived with eyes and hair in colors I like, plus my additional order of violet eyes to change out as desired.
2 hours after I came home, Seren at least had a shift and the start of a sideless surcote (I *am* a geek after all, and she will be going to CoCo with a nice set of historical clothing for the theme, as well as a small fae costume). Still needs the trimmings on the sideless, a proper GFD and her accessories (hose, shoes, belt/pouch, hair), but at least it's a start. *grin*
