(no subject)
Been a bit afk--quite literally--for a few days (OH SHIT, THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN ENDDD), but I had to hop on tonight and actually get this post cranked out 'cause I'm quite excited! This will be boring for you family-folk as this is chock full of dollstuffs!
Okay, okay, one interesting family-related(?) thing: today (er, yesterday, as it's 3 AM) was Codie's birthday! He's nineteen! It was so cute. ;w; Mom made him a strawberry pie, and we all sang happy birthday to him, and it was like he was really a part of the family. I thought it was fucking adorable of my parents. <3
ALRIGHT, here comes a cut for colossal dollthings. 8D WARNING to family-folk and anyone else! Behind the cut there will be resin dolls without eyes! You have been warned!! xD Be wary!!
Okay, so I've been having all kinds of freakin' trouble getting Enn's face-up off, right? I tried EVERYTHING! Rubbing alcohol--my usual approach--, brush cleaner--which I don't usually use and was SURE would work!!--, everything!
...Except acetone nail polish remover. :D;;; *dumb-chanz*
So, er, yeah. FINALLY GOT THOSE DAMN EYEBROWS OFF. They were freakin' -bugging- me.
And what did I do after I took off those eyebrows? :D Redid them, of course!
Recap, this is the old face-up:
Sorry for the poor quality and light. :P You get the idea. Bland, vacant expression, yuck.
So, here's what she looks like without eyebrows:
Yay? xDD At least they're -gone-.
And, this is what I planned for her to look:
ANDDDD.... here's the final product:
JOY! 8D Finally, she doesn't look so damn vacant! (Yeah, yeah, she's got freckles now, stfu. xDD)
Once I get the rest of her body done--going for a very neutral tone, so we'll see how well that works...--and get her all strung up again, there will be, of course, a proper little display. :3 Until then... you know what I'll be working on. e_e
Oh! Codie-kins has a show with his band tomorrow. :D It's a show/art exhibit, so I'm pretty excited, despite all the people (with the exception of three) we met who are going to be in the exhibit were complete DOUCHEBAGS. Like -oh my god- douchebags. People I would love to rip throats from.
But, speaking of art exhibits, these shows are a monthly thing, and I think if the boys get signed up for another gig there, I might submit some of my artwork in the form of some of the pictures of zee dolls. :3 I'm... really excited about that prospect! I just need to poke around and find out how to get reeeeaaallly big, nice poster-type-things of my photos. Kinko's? Anyone know? xD So, keeping that in mind, need to take pictures of Enn, and it wouldn't hurt to take some cute ones of Elby and Tan. x3
So, Codie and I got up early today to do some shit before he and his band practiced, and we were driving around, listening to some of his electronic music, and he started telling me about this idea he had for a video of one of his songs. The song is called "Risperdal," named after a medicine that Codie was perscribed (to help with his Tourette's, which is mild and limited to facial/physical tics and practically unnoticable), but Risperdal is usually perscribed for schziophrenia. So, he had this idea to do a stop-motion animation with Legos to his song of a police officer going around, sort of helping people, arresting people, etc... but he's actually just a mailman posing as a police officer, and he's acting out a different personality that the Risperdal has brought out in him...
Anyways. We were passing by Toys 'R' Us, and I was like, "fuck yes! let's get some fucking Legos!" ... so we did. :D So we spent two hours tonight playing with our new police/mailman legos and it was -epic- awesome. I freakin' love Legos.
I'll post some pictures eventually. xD I meant to take pictures tonight, but forgot my camera! If this stop-motion animation works out, I might move on up and try some stop-motion with my dollies. :D That would be nifty!
