I've been trying to keep busy...
I have my Dollmore Biwol now, so I guess I'm officially a dolly owner now. I've also managed to:
A) Give her a face up. I'm not 100% happy with it but since I can pinpoint what I don't like, I can deal with it until the weather improves
B) Pierce her ears, so I can make earrings for her and try the jewelry I'm making on her.
C) With some guidance/assistance from my big sis', restring her legs with better elastic (the kind she uses on her Domuya Flexi Boy who is a PAIN IN THE WAZOO. I also helped her with restringing him) and hot glue suede her joints...
So I guess that kind of makes me a dolly modder too. *looks both ways.* Or, well, learning to be one. I do have plans down the road to do a pretty extensive modding project, when I can afford to pay ResinSoul for two of their 68cm girls at once (One will be Miselia BEFORE the demonic corruption and being turned into a lich, one will be Miselia after that, so scars, runes, will probably be the only doll I ever own with non-standard eyes, I might hack off one of her ears if I decide it would make her look creepier.)
... I think I really need a male companion for her. Not specifically to "'ship" them or anything, more as a photo compatriot. I have high hopes for the Simply Divine Group Order, but... I guess I'm starting to get worried since I've heard nothing from it, so I've got a window open eyeballing other sculpts I like to see if I can pick one.
... and out of how many dozens of doll companies with tons of male sculpts, some companies that specialize in only male sculpts... I have found THREE I like? I think I may have issues.
I've applied for more jobs at Purdue (although I still haven't heard back from them for the ones I did in August and September... not even a "We're not interested in you") and one at OSU now, plus tried to get promoted at my current job to be a head cashier, but they pulled someone from another store instead. Words may have been strategically dropped to my manager that he liked hearing though, like "being an expert for lawn and garden or even department manager might get me to stay long term".
So, now, dolly pictures!
And one final thing I had fun doing: making a birthday present for a dear coworker of mine:
