Three moar Timonie-pics, just because I got some really nice ones.  She's wearing another set right now...eventually I'll get it shot!  She's wearing a Zoi no Miko dread wig with it because it matches PERFECTLY with the yarns, lol.  In the meantime:

Thanks hon! That's a gigantor painting I did back in college called Tidepool (it's actually a female nude kind of hidden in layers & washes of sea-colours), & it makes such a great backdrop! lol Those golden tones really bring out her resin & eyes.

So love the chair. Doesn't it just suit her? I can't wait to get the BIDs here & try them out on the vintage handmade loveseat Mom found for them.

I think it's the biggest painting I've ever done, not counting the set of weird batiste boat-sail things I did my senior year that took up half a room at least & went right to the ceiling...

It's about 46" x 39", if I recall--I built the frame, stretched the canvas etc so it's kind of an irregular size. And it's got glass beads in some of the spots, & they glow in the right light. I was always quite happy with how that one turned out. Lol, some people never even see the nude figure!

Okay, I have to admit that I usually don't like BJDs...but I like this one. She's pretty and NORMAL looking! And her face is prettier than a lot of others i've seen. Where did you get her?

Thank you! ^^ Timonie is from a Korean maker called Iplehouse, & she was a limited edition "hiphop" version of the Cocori sculpt:

I sold off the hiphop outfit immediately, but one of the reasons I bought her was to model the dollsweaters I knit...she photographs beautifully, poses wonderfully & her body sculpt just makes the sweaters look so natural. I had a flock of boys her size (approx. 60 cm) before I ever found a girl I really loved ( ... )

You know I actually was just at that site looking at dolls! They're all SO PRETTY. Sometimes I get a little weirded out by some bjds, but these were so lovely and had beautiful expressions.

And awwww, you flater meee! My writing style has grown so much since then! I'd really like someday to finish them in my current style.

Wait...you knit those doll clothes yourself?? They're GREAT looking!

Iplehouse started out kind of like the "other" dollmakers, but they're really coming into their own, I think, with the adult-looking dolls. That EID Bichun is gorrrrgeous. And I just bought two of their 3-year-old-ish BIDs from the Elemental Guardian series (minus all the fairy stuff they were offered with)...I've never really wanted kid-like BJDs, but Erzulie & Ifreet won me over to the dark side. Plus, I wanted sweater models in that size, which is super-popular.

Yep, I knit that set & you should be able to come by some more of my work under the "knitting" tag...I think I've got it all catalogued. People are kinda nuts in this hobby...I've sold some of my Chaos Lace (like fishnet on acid) pieces for $120+ on eBay. Sweaters that could fit on your hand. Crazy!

Oh, how I'd love to see that story set finished one day...how fabulous it is that their interaction is as fascinating as the UST! Although, yeah, Hichi fingersucking ftw. ;)

Would you like to take a guess what my Mum always brings me for the resin gang?

Mini bottles of booze. I have a Pravda Vodka for with Amaranth, but it's so huge and glittery, her woowoo hands can't quite support it. Maybe she needs a passed out after too many drinks shoot?

Those wee iron skillets are hard to find!

Ish is Fishmas again already? TIMONE PICS AND AUNTIE SB. I am so goddamn happy. Can't even tell you~.

And I dig that picture in the back.
