Welcome Back
Its been a while, I wanted to share my resin family with you. These are all ball jointed dolls.
Willow, Oscar, Billie, and little Fern, my bjd dolls.
Its traditional to refer to them by name (chosen by me) Brand, Sculpt (ie model) and then size, so I think I covered all the bases here. Worry about the spelling on Oscar’s sculpt name but will figure that out n update it.
The tall one in the big dress, is Willow; she is Myou Delia MSD and is 44 cm tall she’s the Mummy.
Oscar Jake, who arrived today is Illusion Spirit Qi Xiao; Yosd 27cm tall
Billie: Blue Fairy Tiny Fairy Sarang (MSD) at 40cm tall
Fern: Myou Feng Linger, 1/8 doll at 17cm tall.
The Dad is on order 😉 still figuring the family out, so dynamics with the little boy may change a bit.
Oh you should have seen Oscar when he arrived, this morning. Taking him out of his shipping box he looked so grumpy. He literally came out of his pillows looking like this, bless him.
Oscar arrived looking a bit grumpy. but after something to eat and meeting his new family he settled down and is happy.
Oscar had something to eat, met his new sisters and new Mum Willow and is now very happy, he can’t wait to make a den in the tree house. Fern is a bit miffed that I didn’t wait to post this till her wig arrived. We both hate the wig she shipped with, you could see the wig cap through it and it falls off a lot so she had a crochet hat instead. Lets just say this hobby is ALL about the waiting.
Jane Davenport is to blame for all this, in one of her classes she posted about creating your own muse with dolls. I’m not ready to do face ups (where u take off the painted face on a doll and create your own version on there), these dolls are far too beautiful to do that with. But when my first looked up BJD it was love at first sight. I only wanted one to help me with my sketching. But its addictive and I fell down the slippery slope, down the rabbit hole and here we are. ‘Dad’ is on order, he will be Myou Arthur but they take many months to arrive after you order them because they are made to order and come all the way from China or Korea.
I like to imagine stories about their lives and write those stories when my hands allow, (which isn’t often) but its just as much fun playing with dolls now as it was when I was a kid. File it all under ‘sorry not sorry’. Life is tough and these dolls are therapy on so many levels.
In other news, computer is still low on memor which makes taking photos is limited for me. I will reply to comments eventually, so please bear with me if it takes me a while. I don’t have much use of my hands, so things take as long as they take.
Thanks for dropping by and if you still follow this blog, thanks because I haven’t posted in AGES.
