I took him hiking hoping to find a good place for pics, but the trails were crawling with runners and their dogs, so instead you get the back yard. He had a bit of a disaster right before this, so if his hair is a mess, that's why.

I wired my DV Chaos' hind legs (with some very heavy-duty wire), so now he can stand! He can even stand on three legs. Second pic is just because he looks cute like that.

Next stage of the bjd horse project (horses for bjds not bjds that are horses) is saddle making. I do have two saddles, one for each horse, that originally came with them, but both are vintage faux leather. If you've been in the hobby, or any hobby involving this stuff, for a while, you probably know why that's bad.

The third pic is what happens when I handle it. This stuff is worse than glitter. If you're not aware, it crumbles as it ages, eventually becoming a sticky pile of crumbs.

Anyway, I used a seam ripper to dissect one of the saddles for pattern pieces. The saddles are for American Girl and similar dolls originally, but they're still a good size for 1/4 bjds, so I've decided not to change the pattern.

I will be reusing the plastic insert from the cantle/seat, but I'll be making my own new stirrups and horn.

okay, throatlatch accomplished. now the bridle is complete. in order to do this I had to make my own buckle out of copper wire. it's kind of janky but it works lol.

[blacksheepdolls]

all five of my 1/4 -taurs. as you can see, the DV Chaos is unable to stand without support. DV Dean remains the tallest.

Made a leather bridle for one of my doll horses. It was supposed to have a throatlatch as well, but I can't find any buckles small enough, and don't want it to be permanent. Next is trying to make a saddle... wish me luck.

I really need to make a checklist so I know which photoshoots I've already posted on here, cause I have absolutely no idea at this point.

Anyways, here's Jae-Seong

I've had these wings since 2013, but I rarely ever use them. the issue is that they have to be tied on around the shoulders (hence the scarf here). I need to figure out a better way.

[blacksheepdolls]

I hadn't taken a picture of these two together since 2017... anyway, here are my angel siblings who hate each other.

[blacksheepdolls]

thank you!!! I have a small space for photos when I'm indoors, so sometimes I have to get creative lol

I couldn't decide on a favorite version of this one, so I chose both. please click these, tumblr has butchered the quality. I wanted to do this photoshoot outside originally, but my schedule and the weather have not been cooperative, so I settled for scarves as the background instead of grass. added a lot of nice color, at least. the first time I took these, I accidentally left his wig cap visible somehow, so I had to set things up all over again, but the second set came out better anyway.

I updated my doll info and FAQ pages at long last. some of the FAQ information was outdated, and the doll info was very outdated.

if you have any questions or are curious about bjds or about my dolls specifically, check these out.

[blacksheepdolls]

some sheep for easter. or for 420 if you celebrate that instead.

[blacksheepdolls]

how cute! love seeing another island doll dove :)

Please reblog this one instead, as it has the actual updated prices. For whatever reason, the other version didn't work, even though I edited the original post.

BJD FOR SALE!

Selling a couple heads and a body from my collection! If you're interested, please DM me or send an ask. There will also be DOA links in the reblogs for those who feel more comfortable doing transactions over there. General sales info at the bottom!

DOLLSTOWN 18YR GIRL BODY ("oriental" resin) - $400 USD + SHIPPING

I purchased this body from the DOA marketplace in 2022. Those who follow me will know how much of an ordeal it was trying to get it delivered lol. In any case, I've decided to go a new direction with that doll idea, and so the body is for sale.

No damage, no mods, no staining, though she does have faint traces of an old body blush on her toes and in her belly button (toes pictured above - it's hard to photograph). She is from approx. 2019. I would prefer to ship her strung, but if I have to, I can probably take her apart. Please note that this body is Big (almost 70cm by itself, and just generally large). She does NOT have a COA.

OR-DOLL/NYX VAMPIRE KATRINA HEAD ("normal" resin) - $70 USD + SHIPPING

Bought this head new in 2018 through NewCloverSinging on ebay. I believe she is discontinued, as I cannot find her anywhere. There was a variation with more closed eyes, but this is the open-eyes version. Her headplate (the one inside her head) likes to pop out from time to time, but it can be glued back in easily. She comes with her COA, and I may even have her original box somewhere. If you'd like it, please let me know, and I will hunt for it.

No mods, no damage, no stains, never painted.

DREAM VALLEY ORDER HEAD + EARS ("dragon's blood red" resin) - $50 USD + SHIPPING

Purchased new in 2023 through BJDivas, came with my Chaos doll. He has visible "scratches" from sanding, and came this way from the company. They do not consider it damage. He will come with his wolf ears, as well as the magnets for them (not glued in). He also has his own COA, and a face protector.

No mods, no damage, no stains, never painted.

GENERAL SALES INFO:

If you have any questions, comments, etc., I am always open to DMs and asks! Prices are negotiable (within reason). I can take any further photos you require as well.

Payment is Paypal ONLY, and must be through goods & services. Shipping will be through USPS, unless I am asked to do otherwise. I will ship internationally, but I will not lie on customs forms, sorry. If you want insurance beyond $100, please ask. When I calculate shipping, it is an estimate, HOWEVER, if the estimate is wrong, I will fix it- overages I will cover myself, and any extra will be refunded. For reference, I am located in Ohio, United States.

I am NOT interested in trades or splits at this time. I may accept a layaway plan, but I would vastly prefer payment in full. All payments are NON-REFUNDABLE.

For those with allergies, I live in a house with cats. They have no access to the doll room, but fur likes to travel.

Thanks for looking!

[blacksheepdolls]

just realized the prices on my sales post... didn't actually change when I told them to??? SIGH

[blacksheepdolls]

and yes I'm still going to try finishing the lookback thing, I just ended up with some life stuff happening (yet again...) the past couple weeks. schedule is clear for now, though, so I'll be able to catch up soon.
