Tifa, Gravi shrine, chibi pics and Dollfie directions in Japanese

[onnas_baka_gaki]

Well, I ordered rat a big soft-busted Dollfie Plus from Mimiwoo to be Tifa. I have to search for an appropriate wig for her now - couldn't find one on eBay. And she will be hanging out naked for a while, too. rat will 'hate' that

I could do a face up for her if you want ^.^V
I kinda wanna have a go at one of the closed eye heads to paint... just don't wanna buy my own >.

[onnas_baka_gaki]

Do you know anything about the eye decals? I bought a ton of them so rat could decide which eyes he would want for Tifa. I have both innocent and not-so-innocent on the way.

It would help a lot if you could help - thank you! rat has graphics of her to go by, too. She will be pretty simple to do, too. The details will be small to paint, though.

Hmm, maybe I should try and paint her myself instead so rat can grump at me if it's wrong! *laughs* He has been really persnickity about his Tifa. Seriously persnickity!

(And I do have some boy dolls coming, too...)

I haven't used them before, but I have used decals on HO train models

>.< Daddy is a train nerd

[onnas_baka_gaki]

I have messed with some decals before - that's why I know the different kinds out there.

Maybe I should make rat do most of the work!

Whatever works, I'm still willing to help out.

[onnas_baka_gaki]

How does $25 each for working on two ($50) sound to start? And I will add in some Japanese snacks if the new Asian market has anything you might like.

And I will buy any art supplies you might need to pick up to do the work.

I am truly an idiot when it comes to Japanese. It will take me a year just to translate the first sentence!

[otana]

Sounds just fine to me. Though I wonder, would it be easier (and cheaper) to just scan the instructions? I don't know, I mean I'm willing to do my best to put them together, but while I have experience in Japanese, I don't have any experience with dolls or fine work of this kind. I'm a little scared of breaking something expensive.

To clarify: I'm absolutely willing to do the work and help out, I just don't want to break anything and put you out of money.

[onnas_baka_gaki]

I suspect if you can do jewelry, you can do this.

But I will scan the directions, when I can find them, and see what you think, how does that sound?

I know when I heard that girl say that (she was Shuuichi cosplaying, naturally), I instantly thought of you. *laugh*

[onnas_baka_gaki]

I wish I had been there, so I could have turned around with my Gravi shirt blazing across my flat chest and holding Shuichi in my arms and arched an eyebrow at her.

[eidolontree]

I have to admit, I was with a friend at the time and all I could think was, "Dear god don't tell her what my pseudonym is."

The namebadges there? They had our real names, only. I kept putting my hair over it, I loathe having my name put out in public like that. It did protect me from a few rather.... exuberant YAOI fans, to the degree that they all thought I'd never heard of YAOI before.

There is so much Gravi out there! God, I remember when there really was nothing, to hear someone say that there's nothing nowadays amuses the hell out of me.

[onnas_baka_gaki]

Urg! I would HATE to have my real name on the name tag!

Sure, there is a lot of Gravi out there, and most of it is dreck! Whee!

[maltec_spider]

Wow, now there's some Gravi dedication for you! *laughs* Cool shrine, very cool indeed (and aww at your tiny boys sitting right in the middle of it all! ♥ )

Also: OMG Tifa! Must see... be sure to post lots of pics of her once she's wigged and clothed, yes yes? ^_____~

[onnas_baka_gaki]

I REALLY wanted rat to get an Elfdoll Sooah or Soah to be Tifa so we would have one lady in the stinky men mix, but the size daunted him a bit, I think.

I think he likes the idea of a pocket Tifa! *laughs*
