Sushi - Dollzone Dale

My Dollzone Dale arrived this weekend.  She was so adorable!!  Originally, her name was to be Andraste, but when I pulled her out of the box and saw her for the first time, I called her My Little Sushi and so she was named Sushi. 

For her look, I originally wanted her coloring to be reminiscent of a piece of salmon sushi.

But, I think she looks more like a koi.

Here are the in progress pictures:

And, here she is all put together.  :)

And here she is in the dress I sewed with her (boy, what a busy day :) I'm exhausted).

Sasha & Misha - Dollzone Mo A/Mo B

In 2013, I recieved one of the Dollzone Mo SD heads as an event gift when I purchased my Dollzone Cosmo.  I then purchased the other Dollzone Mo head through a British sales rep.  There is a slight difference in the two sculpts.  My initial plan was for these two to be my mischievous Russian twins, but as it took longer for me to decide on bodies for them, my interest in bringing these two fun loving imps to life started to dwindled.  As my collection started to grow and change, I decided to sell these heads to a foreign buyer.  She requested that I do two separate face ups as she did not know of any face up artists near her.  She wanted one "normal" face up with freckles and a "goth" face up.  The two heads were for her friend.  I did the piercings on both dolls as well.

I am incredibly proud of the "normal" face up.  :)

Oracle - NeoAngel Region Warrick

When I purchased the my NeoAngel Region Diana X-mas Kit in 2009, I received a free head - Warrick.  Warrick became my very bitchy female character Oracle, who was as her named states - an oracle.  Eventually I bought her a Bobobie 60cm female body.  Sadly, in 2013, like Laila and Lola she was sold - no longer fitting in with the rest of my doll collection.

The following is a montage of her evolution of face ups.

Taylor Lautner BJD Sculpt

A member of the OmahaBJD group has a Taylor Lautner bjd sculpt (company unknown).  She asked me to do his face up and even out his "tan" as the resin was splotching.

Face up I completed on a friend's Soom Uyoo

Materials used:  chalk pastels, prismcolor colored pencils, acrylic paint, Testor's Dullcote

Lola Version 2/Hel - Dollzone Feilian 3

In 2011, the original Lola a Dollmore Pado was replaced with a Dollzone Feilian 3.  But, sadly, the new and improved Lola suffered the same fate as Laila, the NeoAngel Region, Diana and was sold in 2013 as she no longer fit with my current doll collection.

A friend of mine purchased the Dollzone Feilian (the same friend that purchased the Dollmore Pado XD) and she was renamed Helvetica, Hel for short.  Hel retains the face up I did while she was in my possession and went by the name of Lola.

Materials Used: chalk pastels, acrylic paint, prismcolor colored pencils, Testor's Dullcote

Lola Version 1 - Dollmore Pado

I purchased the Dollmore Pado second hand off of Ebay in 2009.  She was to be my first incarnation of my original character Lola (Laila's younger/older vampire sister).  However, the sculpt did not work out, mostly because I was not entirely impressed with the structure of the Dollmore Kid body.  She was also victim to my first very rough attempts at doing face ups.

As usual my materials included chalk pastels, prismcolor colored pencils, acrylic paint and Testor's Dullcote.
