BJD Fennec Fox Kickstarter!

Photo-main

The kickstarter is available here!

I think these little things are pretty cute! I'd rather have actual fluff in the ears, but I'm sure that would be plenty easy! I pledged enough to get a test cast if this goes through (how could I resist?) so I hope it does! Go pledge and you could get your own cute thing!

Zuzu Delf Persi stole my heart!

This kitten is way too cute for words.


First I thought she was weird and now I'm kind of in love with her ;-;

My boyfriend adores her too. Maybe we'll get them together one day.

$185 isn't terrible...

Zinc - White Archer

Well I found my holy grail of dolls.

Create-a-Monsters

I actually quite like the look of the Monster High CAMs that don't have faces. There's not the same kind of definition, but they remind me of aliens. They maintain being expressive without needing to have eyes and lips.

The lab girl is my favorite (I bought the lab JUST to get her).

However, I find myself interested in the Nocturnal and Mystical Add-On packs.

Nocturnal Monkey
Monster High Create a Monster Lab, Mystical and Nocturnal
I wouldn't be putting the faces on them but I couldn't find pics of the blank unicorn girl. I was wondering where in the WORLD I could get at least vaguely matching upper limbs when I remembered Plastic Curves!

So now for some math...

Nocturnal+Mystical Add-On Packs: $22
Upper limbs x2: $20
     +Color for the limbs x2: $6
Total: $48

That got... really pricey really fast.

Now: I have an idea for the extra mystical head (requires some spraypaint to make it white) so let's see how much it would cost me to make a full doll from that head...

Torso from PC: $12
Upper Limbs: $10
+ Color: $3

Total so far: $25

I guess get some lower limbs from eBay??

I wish Mattel wouldn't do things like this...

BJD Dreaming

Well, I might be looking a bit far ahead, but planning is fun!

For my impldoll Gela (her name is Argilla), I'm hoping to give her a new faceup in browns and greens (she has one but I think something less detailed would be better) and eyes like this





EYE_GE12
Except maybe in brown. Or maybe a brown one and a green one. Except I can't find eyes like this in brown! Boo. I'm super excited to get her. Excitement! She's prenamed and preloved but I can't remember her name @__@

Faceup Ideas

Well, to start, I recently commissioned a Monster High faceup from Darjeeling Aesthetics and I've been incredibly satisfied with the outcome! The doll is lovely and right now, only $15 for MH faceups. Which is awesome.


Lookit! Isn't she lovely? Gah, I'm excited to have her come home! 

As for the orange staining mentioned in the post, that was my fault. Oopsie. I tried to give her a faceup myself and... it did not go well.

I'd like to commission her to do a CAM Blob and Ice girl though! I'm not fond of the default faces but I love the bodies. 

I'd also like to see her do a Scaris Rochelle. I have a "no duplicate" policy of sorts, but I don't think it should apply to customs. They're special!

So yeah. Mura of Darjeeling is awesome.

A Beginning!

As silly as this may be, I thought that it was kinda cool that all these BJD owners had bloggers. So I figured I could make one! I'm hoping to own my first BJD soon, an impldoll baby with little hooves! I've got some plans for her but I'm in love already <3

I'll post pictures! I'm sure I'm not going to have any followers on here for a long while, but this still could be fun. Doll blogging! I collect Monster High and Bratzillaz too, though I'm aware that the BJD community has mixed feelings on those (at least on tumblr). I don't consider them BJD (I promise never to tag a post with just them as BJD!) since they don't have the same level of articulation among the other qualifications for BJD.

I'm rambling a bit! Either way, I think these doll blogs are awesome <3

My name's Pachi! Pleasure to meet you!
