INVISIBLE TO TELESCOPIC EYE

yes, this is a xmas card to you all. ( yadda... )

small update for today. not really working on it today cuz i've spent about 17 hours on it so far and should probably take a break. took a couple of pics really quick though before i ran out of light just because it looks a lot better that way haha




need to figure out a good way to fix up the chipped pieces. also need to figure out what to do with the ears :/ and let me know what you think of the nose!

so every now and then i get a craving for mcdonalds, so on friday when cori's flight was like 30 mins late (and i was already on my way to pick him up x_x) i took the opportunity to satisfy the mcdonalds craving i'd had all week.

well the guy at the window was flirting with me >_____< and touched my hand when he took my card... i was like D:!!!!!

i've never been touched while at a drive-through before, and it occurred to me that it's kind of strange that something as simple as a brush of fingers can stand out so much o_O


hmm i should add some pics that i keep forgetting to post lol



bailey having fun with the snow



and our christmas lights! i found red and green ceramic lights :D :D :D like oldschool christmas lights! very exciting hehehe but we can't connect more than two strands, so there are five extension cords on the house ~_____~ and a few bulbs are out, i need to buy replacements. also you can see the man tree in the garden window n_n

azel belongs to starshipangels n_n

i hate when i get a sales newsletter (like from jcpenney or something) and it's like FREE SHIPPING!!! because alaska is always excluded ;______;

there are no iphone apps for acquiring hookers.

spent five hours today working on the stitching >.< managed to mess up the MSC in a couple of places, which hopefully i'll be able to fix tomorrow :/




(the eyes belong to rianne, not me)

starshipangels sent me a christmas present :3 some mini sweets and a little wrapped present for meryll hehe i did a photostory of her opening it but i haven't edited the pics yet... prolly will do that now and get it up in a bit i guess

mostly finished (um... just the head lol not the ears or body) so i popped her old eyes in for some pics cuz i couldn't find some 16mm that looked better :B i've started gluing on the twine but obviously haven't finished yet.

( five pics )

so... today started out fantastic in all sorts of sarcastic ways. bailey has been eating all of her food lately, which is good. but she and sabre were outside and went runnnnnnning across the yard, and pulled the dog run out of the side of the house >.<;;;;;;;;;;

i put about 12 hours into the curo today . . . i feel like i got nothing done. of course, that was split up with me having to walk around outside every hour or two with the dogs =___= the second or third time those damn kids (i don't remember if i even posted about them last time, but pretend i did) were playing in our yard again >.<;;;; so i had to tell them again to not play in our yard... so they just moved to the corner of our yard next to christina's yard -__________- so i had to yell at them and say the ENTIRE yard.

then at some point i found blood in the kitchen from one of the dogs... i still have no idea which one of them was bleeding, but bailey is acting sulky so i'm assuming it's her?? but i can't tell where she's bleeding from o_O;; but she's been sulky since the run broke so she might just be sulking cuz of that. no idea.

anyways, now it is bedtime, because my eyes are fucking exhausted and my stomach is KILLING ME OMG because i was starving i guess??? even though i've eaten small things throughout the day so i should not be that hungry. but i ate some oatmeal :/ and now i need to take a shower because my hands feel dryyyyyyyyy (between the MSC and the W&N) and then just curl up in my nice and warm kitty-covered bed =3=

and for the record yuki looks insanely creepy without ears >.>

oh, and i pretty much finished the head. there is a little more i need to do, but i glued the twine into the mouth so i can't coat anymore tonight.

i'm replacing my pipos curo with a rooney (for those who missed my post last night)... so i figured i'd have some fun painting it up! here is a shot of how it looks so far :P i won't be sharing many in-progress shots of the head but will try to share more of the body if i can.



(that is the base of the head in the back there, it is done up in light green gingham. the head obviously will be brown gingham, and the nose and ears will be solid.)


(PS: gingham, not plaid like buttonface)

PPS: i decided to actually share this one with DoA lol

gonna order on the 26th!

if you'd like something, PM me with links to the item you want (make sure you specify the size) along with your paypal address and your mailing address, just so i have it all in one spot

there are about five people lined up so far (counting a couple that haven't PM'd me yet but said they want in)

mraaaaaaah i need to start sleeping more =________=...

i've decided that i'm going to replace yuki with a grey rooney... maybe if she is a different size and color than buttons i will like her more :/ i mean, those who have watched me for a long time know that she was not planned and also know i don't like having multiple dolls with the same bodies sooo yeah. and maybe she can be more robot-y if she is grey instead of white. i've been thinking for a long time that maybe i should just sell her but i don't want to just ditch the character. so i will sell the curo and get the grey rooney, and hopefully yuki will have found her place.

that being said, i have a fun project now >____>

let's just say i now have a blank curo, lots of twine, and a few long nights ahead of me...! >:3

starting tomorrow, because it definitely took me almost an hour to get that damn default face-up off and my fingers are a little raw from the W&N

i need something from tata's paradise but i don't want to pay EMS shipping for just one thing. anybody else want to order some stuff with me?

PM me (mendokusai) if you'd like to join in :3

Thank you for applying to the FINAL FANTASY XIV Beta Test!

even though i didn't make it far enough in nanowrimo, i have still been trying to write a little more here and there. been especially working on it the past couple of days. felt like posting this outside of my writing filter just because i thought it might be interesting, and stood alone well enough for people who wouldn't want to read all the rest of the stuff i've been writing.

(anybody who is on my writing filter, you have not seen this yet. it'll be added to tomorrow/today's post)


( shael and tato! )

huzzah! i have discovered that marsh sews for JID boys :D :D :D so i placed an order for a few pairs of pants for rey :3 she is having a buy 2 get 1 free sale for minis today (she's having a different sale every day for the 12 days of christmas) so i got three pairs n_n

now if only i could find a good place for shirts >:/

hmm i should probably change rey's userpic so it's not the lati anymore lol

lol i had a pair of eyes in my left hand and some candycorn in my right hand, and just about popped the eyes into my mouth :B

Hand bound sketchbooks are so much fun to make T-T


Etsy shoppp!

rey's eyes came in yesterday :3 i chipped his face-up with my fingernail >.< but the MSC on his eye is lousy anyways so i need to redo it eventually. i can't get the eyes to position right lol

also apparently he has stolen alister's toque :B


( 2 of rey, one with meryll )

ugh i'm so tired today =3=



Alister, "I've been looking through this box for twenty minutes. Are you sure they're in here?"

I managed to hand in my dissertation yesterday and then spent 5 hours getting back to the flat from uni. gyah. but now that is out of the way, i feel better, although the cold has just decended again, so i'm having trouble working with cold hands again. anyway- I updated my etsy shop with a few items and commissionable stuff as well

http://www.etsy.com/shop/naniiebim

so it's actually looking a bit fuller than usual.

I'd like to make more stuff, but once i actually warm up i might have to do some work for the first time in a while geh. fuf.


anyway NO MORE DISSERTATION !!! mwahahahahahahahahahahahaha




oh the excitement.
