This one wasn’t the most productive.
Things I got done:
Figured out the layout for Cass & Tori’s apt.(this was harder than I’d planned due to some communication difficulties w/ Mark.) Decided which walls will need windows & doors and where they need to connect. Now need to purchase (haha, I quit my job so when this [...]

First, I’m afraid I haven’t been doing much of anything that was worth updating the blog about. More than not I have been worrying about the new job I start tomorrow, and what all that’s going to mean (aside from a drastic cut in hobby time).
Anywho, as far as 1:6 goes for the moment [...]

Well the mini-heatwave we’ve been having means that my original plan for the day (baking cinnamon rolls from scratch to bring to work tomorrow) has been canned. Too freakin’ hot for that!
Instead I’ve done the following:(more pics to follow a bit later)
Continued working on the pole dancing (woo sexy shoes!) shoes/boot feet for the [...]

Ok, maybe nothing as dramatic as The Invasion of the Body Snatchers… but still….
I’ve had Fashion Royalty “Miracle Child Ayumi” for a while.
She is without a doubt one of my all-time favorite face molds but due to the crappy Fashion Royalty body she comes with I haven’t done much with her. In fact, [...]

Why do I sew?
I find sewing is usually an exercise in frustration, trial & error and eventual triumph. That said, I can’t say that the actual act of sewing is much fun for me. But the end results can be.
I sew for usually 2 or 3 reasons.
They are:
1) what I want to dress a figure [...]

Only a quick update: I have started work on the 1:6 patio dio. (forgive the hurried & slightly blurry pics. My free time is somewhat lacking this week)
Seeing this is the first time I’ve really mentioned this project I’ll give you a brief run down on it!
One of the comments I rec’d [...]

So, at last it is friday!
I have the weekend ahead of me, the beginnings of a cold (no surprise there, since they seem to be my perpetual companions here in the UK) and a whole boatload of things I want to get done.
These include:
re-root Ice with longer blonde hair. DONE. Just waiting for her [...]

Yes.
I did.
*sigh*
maybe tomorrow will go better….
here’s a quick picture of the orange couch. Yea, I know its crap and you can see all the joins–but cut me some slack. It _was_ my first attempt and I didn’t know how I was going to do it until I had carpet adhesive all over me and stuck [...]

A couple days ago (–maybe last weekend even?) I managed to paint 2 of the PB heads that I bought on ebay a while back. I had painted them but one was cross-eyed and the other just didn’t look right so I ended up wiping their faces and trying again. I can definitely say they [...]

This is just a quick update of whats on at the moment.
I repainted Alexandra last week (just haven’t taken any pics yet)
Started working on a new 1:6 scale couch for photostory. Actually, I’m working on 2 of them. Will work on variations of it when I have more money for supplies (oh please, payday come [...]

I spent 15.00£ *about 30 USD* yesterday on wood.
I happened to find some nice stuff (a rarity here) at the local kit shop (the wood they stock is meant primarily for railroad hobbyists). It’s quite a pleasure to have it and there is something very relaxing about smelling good wood.
Anyway, the wood is meant for [...]

Remember…its not all about faces.
I want to try to be more creative with my posing–so here’s my first attempt.
Posted in 1:6 Miscellany, Eh, what? on Nov 26th, 2007
Yesss! I’m back from my mini-vacation (ok, honeymoon-anniversary getaway!) and will have plenty of picts to share soon!
For the time being I’ll leave it at this: I found 2 bits of doll stuff while I was in North Yorkshire– 6 mini gargoyles, and some paper (that is supposed to be for doll house gardens or [...]

Pictures are in this post! ;P
It took me forever to actually do anything with picts. The biggest factor in delaying me was my propensity to trip over stuff in the room. Rather than break anything again (ie. the futon has been repaired now!) I got side-tracked into cleaning/re-organizing the crap in the doll area! (re-ment in boxes, fabric in boxes [...]

Yep, I just need to get the camera battery charged up enough to upload the pics and then, after a little bit of editing I’ll share em!
I have to say that I was pleased with how most of the stuff turned out!

As mentioned in previous posts, we’re working on updating and improving (and starting) various room set walls.
Here are some pics of things in progess:
The student lounge
(which is going to be reversible) and also the 3rd wall for it with 2 doorframes. Will make it way easier to shoot pics if I don’t have [...]
