O.O FFFFFFFFFFFfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff!!!

So if you know me you know I love... LOVE the small comfort sculpt.  It's the first doll I've ever looked at and said to myself that I MUST own that doll.  There has never been another doll that I have wanted to wholeheartedly as that little baby doll.  But if you're reading my blog you're probably aware that I do not yet have that doll.  I have had the opportunity to buy one on at least 2 occasions prior to now and the ability to buy on SEVERAL ocasions prior to now.  The most recent being that my father and my mother both offered to buy me a doll, my father for my birthday and my mother for Christmas.  I felt the need to tell them to hold off on this doll both times simply because you can't just -buy- a small comfort.  See felix doll the company that cast them, They went bankrupt and no one is selling the small comforts.

Now to the present... when I once more have not the means to buy my Lori.  I have been approached by someone who resurrected my long dead "willing to buy" thread that I made back when I -did- have the money and then my car went and got buggered.  She is offering to sell me a human headed small comfort (not the right head but the head is not the hard part to get). I told her I don't have the money for it but I might be able to Raise the money... She's given me till the 10th of January.  I have never wanted money so much in my life.  Oh lottery winnings where are you when I need you?

Either way, if you're interested in a commission, be it wig, jewelry or clothes... I'm loath to turn down anything.  hell I'm loath to turn down donations right now... And I really don't like the Idea of donations for a doll.

Nymphaea caerulea

Old profile
Nickname: (Nile) Lotus
Mold
Head: Bei
Body: ResinSoul Single jointed female tiny
Resin: light blue
Face up: will be my me
Eyes: Looking at either a soft yellow, gold or purple.  I'll have to see what it looks like on her.
Hair: Yarn Wigs by me.  Her hair color will reside in the "lavender" color range
Extras: As a fairy she will be modded ever so slightly so that her wings will stick, likely that means that she'll have a magnet inside her torso.
Story:  She is one of my planned fairies.  She's a very prim little thing, Ordered, prissy, almost to the extend of being curt.

Her name will -LIKELY- be Lotus but I'm really in love with the flower's petals for Poppy and how I'll be able to buy them...  Not crazy about the name as poppy though.  So likely she's going to be Lotus... but just in case, her full name as (Himalayan) Poppy would be Meconopsis grandis.

Hands

so a while back Tien ended up taking a dive and busting her pinky off her right hand so I immediately got into a group order for a new pair of hands for her.  Well when the order arrived and I looked at the image, I didn't say it but the hands looked funny.  I assumed it was just the flash or something but I got them yesterday and I tell you... I was quite shocked.  They are totally different hands.  they aren't bad hands... they just aren't what I ordered, palm to finger proportions are totally off, the hand is flat instead of curled like it is in the old hands... I am not going to do anything about it... and I'm not even complaining... they are quite pretty... But I'm surprised... and a little irritated.  It's like no one else can see the difference.  bit I can't stop seeing the difference. I'm really glad they aren't for my doll cus I might have to have a fit if they were.

On another note... the white skin really REALLY yellows fast.  I've had Tien since April about? not sure... but it's been since this late spring early summer.  And she's gone from paper white to ever so slightly off white and these new hands showcase that like CRAZY.  It's not even that bad... but it drives me NUTS.  So i wrapped them in tissue and set them infront of the compy to heat yellow like Cassie did.  I hope they even their color fast.

*grumble*

So my new girl, my little blue fairy thats on order, is apparently being very difficult to name.  I could pick a simple pretty blue flower but NO!! I want a compound flower with a good name that looks neat in the very tidy sort of way.  But I'm just not finding anything that even comes close to what I want/need, closest I've found so far is the Nile lotus.  I -hope- I can find out what the flower I found a pic of but couldn't find a name for will soon somehow get found and be suitable.

Grag.  My brain is so full right now I don't even know what to think.  I'm stressed, trying to do oodles of different things, get the house fixed up and respectable, got to get the tree up.. gotta get a PLACE to put the tree.. Commisions T_T So much stuff.

Ficus Carcia

Nickname: Fig
Mold
Head: Bao
Body: ResinSoul Single jointed male tiny
Resin: green
Face up: will be by me
Eyes: Looking at either Yellow or an orangy brown.  Will have to see what it looks like on him. Likely the "natural" autumn leaves by Safrin doll.
Hair: Yarn Wigs by me.  Fig's hair color will reside in the "teal" color range
Extras: As a fairy he will be modded ever so slightly so that his wings will stick, likely that means that he'll have a magnet inside his torso.
Story:  Fig is one of my planned fairies.  He is going to be a bit of a prankster and a very free spirit.  He is probably the most laid back of the group, sometimes being called lazy by the others but he just likes to weigh his options before bothering with anything.  Truly he might be the wisest one of them but Lotus especially will not admit it.  His Flower is the Fig flower, a complex functional flower.  Fig has a very loose, European style, put together yet still sloppy.  Fig has dragonfly wings.
History: Fig actually was the first of my fairies to be named.  After I decided that I wanted three 27-28 cm dolls for my fairies I knew it would be one boy and 2 girls.  after Lotus got purchased I started looking for flowers and stuff to name them.  Well I needed a -green- flower for him that had cool leaves... and wouldn't you know it, the common Fig has a really neat looking flower and it's totally green.  So TADA.  he was named a good week before Lotus... which is kinda sad.
