May Isul: Midnight Deja Vu

Description:  “Guide of the new item will be released May sell bad apple to appear in Snow White Queen was transformed into has become a motif. I hold out for him, the world’s most sweet, seductive forbidden fruit”

Feel Like So: “See you anymore, you should know the sweet taste of ….. such dense Reach out your hand Come on forbidden fruit shine into the darkness of the black”

Clearly, he’s supposed to be the evil queen disguised as an apple seller from the new Snow White series!  Absolutely not some kind of shota lover for Pullip. Read more »

Thanks to a tip from PullipJunk, I snatched the Wave 3 outfits set from the Mattel online store while they were in stock! This is the first set that I bought all the outfits from. I was sort of back and forth on Spectra, but in the end decided it was better than her stock outfit. Read more »

When pullips first came out they had huge feet. This was great for balancing (they could stand on their own) but not so good for finding shoes! The shoes they came with were often so rigid and tight, one would have to cut them open to get them off the feet. People lamented, and eventually when the type 3 body was released, pullip fans rejoiced as they could now put cheap fashion doll shoes on their dolls!

…Fast forward to 2012. Now the coolest doll shoes anywhere are made for Monster High, and newcomer Barbie brand Stardolls have shoes that are also made for oversized feet. And the pullip collectors lament, if only the awesome shoes fit my dolls!

Well, most of them. Me, I’m psyched! I adore the type 1 body, still have some dolls on type 2, and now I can have all the shoes I want *mad cackle* Read more »

I will confess that I bought the Draculaura/Clawd set for those shoes.  I didn’t really need Draculaura, and I’m assuming that sooner or later another Clawd would have been released who didn’t have such a terrible, terrible outfit.  But… those shoes…

Clearly I have something of a shoe problem.  It’s ok.  I admit it.  But if I basically spent $30 to get them, why would I be doing…whatever that is to them? Read more »

…..ok. As I type this, my fingertips are black, covered in glue residue, and hairy. Obviously I’ve been customizing.

I picked up the Monster High Create A Monster packs as soon as I saw them. Extra heads, different colored bodies, surely I was in customizer heaven! Read more »

Ok, my power supply is still out for repairs, which means no pictures until it returns. This works well with this story, because there are no pictures of it.

So. Wanna hear the sad, sad (and embarrassing) tale? Read more »

My computer’s power supply seems to be failing, so I am RMA’ing it. I expect it’ll be 7-10 days or so before I get it back.

…I swear, my computer has spent more time being repaired than actually working. And I haven’t even had it a year!

That’s right! Another f*cking Alice. Read more »

First topic request!  I thought I had already done this, but turns out nope.  I just did it on flickr… ahahahaha.

While I have chronicled the various extreme customization projects I’ve done, I am not as good at chronicling the mundane.  Sand a face off, slap some paint on there, add eyes… done!   Eventually.  Several hours (or days) later.  And after much swearing and occasionally bleeding.  But that’s the gist.  There are MANY pictures from this series, so if you want to see the full set, go here.

Step 1: Decide what I want to do.  Lots of people do this different ways.  Some people sketch out their ideas.  I don’t usually need to sketch things out, but sometimes I do (like when I did Puddles, after my first failed attempt at making a ‘cute’ clown) and when I do, it’s usually nothing flashy, just some basic MS paint type stuff to help me decide what I want to do.
