Nearing winter

Yesterday PW announced their Christmas Event!
It seems they were planning on releasing new dolls, but they had to postpone those plans, since their sculptor KyungMin hurt her hand and had to have a surgery to get it fixed. Since she will not be able to use her hand for a month, PW decided to make their Christmas Event so, that you can order any of the 2014 limited dolls again in December. Some of the skin colors will not be offered, and some will be offered in other skintones (Dlight).
I think this is a really nice event. It's great that people get at second chance to get the limited edition dolls. But at the same time I'm a little relieved that people can't order Dlight in the same skin tones I got her in...it just makes them a little more special to me. ;P

PW just uploaded a new cover photo for their FB showing a white skin White Rabbit Tristan - so gorgeous! I tell you that sculpt will look good no matter what XD
I like how they gave him some darker red eyes, They look great. ^^

But I'm sort of happy PW didn't release new dolls. I'm not sure I would be able to control myself if they released something awesome again XDD'
At the moment I wont have to feel scared of needing anything new. So that's reassuring...mainly for my wallet. Hehe

But I look forward to seeing everyones new dolls :D
And I hope KyungMin is not too troubled by her accident ;__;

Slowly paying off

So long since I've posted last...or is it just me? ;D
I just wanted to note that I payed off TWO payments on my layaway plan for my Dlights this time. :D Yaaay!!! It's really great to see the payments getting fewer and fewer, knowing I'll have my two Dlights home in the beginning of 2015. *^^*
If all goes well, I'll be paying the last installment by end of January. Wee!! So happy <3
It's so great I get payed a bit for working at my internship company :)

I'm starting to look for what to buy my new girls when they arrive, and I've been fretting a bit about wigs. I'm pretty sure about color and style, I'm just not sure if I should go with fur or synthetic. I read about this brand Pengin Workshop on DoA last week, and these wigs look so pretty...I'm just not really sure if they have what I want XD
So hard to find the right thing. It's like my concept is at the edge of my sight, but I can't really see it clearly, just get hints and guess what I think I see. It's quite annoying sometimes >___<"
I want my girls to look a bit mature and not super girlie/lolita/frilly...you know? So I'm having a hard time because I really like to look at the girlie/lolita/frilly stuff XD
It has even crossed my mind to maybe make Ophelia's wig myself ö___ö" Don't know if I dare though. I've never tried it, and there seems to be a million different ways to do it. I would feel a lot more comfortable just buying a pretty red/wine colored wig that can be braided loosely over one shoulder. ^^

If anyone has a wig-dealer you think might be selling such a wig, please let me know <3 I shall be forever greatful :D

Short update on The Crew

Some days ago I played around with dreamself.me again to come up with some concept ideas for my SD-sized dolls. They are now shown under The Crew if you wish to get a glimpse of how I imagine they will sort of look like. ^^
Unfortunately dreamself.me does not have 'unnatural' skin colors, so I just had to pick the palest one for both Ophelia and Fitzwilliam.

Hehe I'm still a little uncertain about Fitzwilliam, but out of all the names I've been considering, that is the most fitting - he IS my Mr. Darcy ;)

So open eyed Dlight will be named Freyah.
Wake up Dlight will be named Ophelia.
And White Rabbit will probably be named Fitzwilliam. XD

So that's all for now...just some random blabberings from me. ;P

Good news!! ;D

Today I went to my internship company as usual, but it did not turn out to be such a usual day in the end actually.
Suddenly my internship-boss comes over to me and asks if I would like to stay an extra hour each day, and then get paid for it? Well I was speechless!
Here I've been, moaning about the loss of opportunity to earn some money by doing a part-time job beside my studies, and now I've actually got one that is not only very little time consuming (5 hours a week) but also at a great hour rate. So if everything goes right I'll be paying my two layaways off much quicker than expected! YAY!!! :D
This is so awesome! I've really been annoyed that I wouldn't be able to get a part-time job while doing my internship, but now it has just been magically taken care of (well, maybe not magically, but it does seem a bit surreal). XD
So by my calculations (the first thing I did), I'll be paying the last layaway payment by the first day of March! Wee! So exciting! That is a lot of months earlier than expected XD'
Now I am just a little in doubt about, if I should pay off my Dlights first, and then pay off His Royal Hotness fully when the Dlights have been payed...I'm not sure...Or should I just pay them off equally at the same time >_<"
What would you do? ö__ö

The tinies

First a short note on His Royal Hotness: first payment payed!! :DI still can't believe I have managed to get AND buy THREE grail doll I din't knew I would have. XD
It's scary and amazing at the same time.

Anyway, so I've been having this idea playing around in my head to make my normal skin FOFs into seasons!! *__*
I've always loved interpretations of the seasons into clothes, and I really think that it would be a neat project for me. I think it will end with the twins being spring and autumn, and Lucy being summer and Loki being winter. ^^
It would be a project that would always be relevant, and could be really neat I think <3
As much as I love watching people having fantasy faceups, I won't do fantasy faceups on my crew, as I just feel like it's not really my intention of making it a fantasy theme. I just want to make clothes that are inspired by the season (colours, fabrics etc. but not fashion-like). It will end up being pretty frilly-dolly style I think XD
But that is awesome I think, because non of my big dolls will be wearing lolita stuff, and somebody should ^^;

Well, that's all the ramble you will get from me today XD
I'm trying to paint more doll pics on my computer, but it is not that easy, and I often just start afresh if I don't like where a sketch is going, so it might be a while before I actually get to finish anything >_<"
But hey, it's weekend after tomorrow! ;D
