Want to see if y’all would have interest in my other collections/ creations also I’m just curious 🧐

I love your idea about doll sized animal skulls! I've been looking for some doll sized retro TVs to use as doll heads as well but I don't know if that is something you're interested in making as well

Yes! I really love object head dolls and TV heads are definitely on my list. At least a cathode & 70s style, since it's something you want too I'll definitely put it in priority on my list! My printer prints in about 5x3x6 inches, so I can't do like big BJD sizes, but I could definitely do 1/6 scale (I kinda want to do a barbie TV head with the Mario fashion packs!) I also only have white resin right now, so that's why i'm starting with skulls! I'm definitely going to be branching into more colors & different resin types as the year goes on. Including custom colors, translucency and add ins. :D :D :D

Some of my restorations also some creations.

I found the monster high kiyomi doll without clothes and one hand, I adapted a hello kitty doll suit for her (they are smaller than the MH dolls) and inspired by Lolita outfits I also put sailor moon tattoos on her.

I made the dress for the tea bunny and had to repaint the eyes, nose and shoes.

EAH's mermaid was crazy, I used a tail from some mermaid doll and filled it with sequins creating a coral silhouette, I repainted the chest, I made a top and a headdress, I almost forgot I also put eyelashes on it ! It was crazy.

the pink barbie was a little whim that I gave myself.

the little panda was dethroned but I was able to give him a second chance.

the bratz Tiana from tokyo a gogo inspired me in the video of “stupid love” by Lady Gaga and the style of the line of dolls from tokyo a gogo.

the g1 pony was also a repaint and reroot job and my little Minty was the inspiration for some Japanese fashion styles.

the bratz pixie was a challenge, she was very battered and without clothes, I repainted her lips, made her a blouse, made her wings (not my best job), I was able to get her shoes and pants, and restored her hair.

Elay got so many nice photo shootings in the past but her story is kind of “on ice” regarding writing as I am working on other things instead .. that 2 years passed until she got new photos. Her old school goth vibes still get me but currently I am more in for other aesthetics, so she gets out rarely.

My bunka doll obsession is strong! This time I tried to add something unexpected in this style - sock garters. ^^

Hey so I made a separate blog for my toy collecting and reblogging at @forthe-hoard

Clothes made by nightfall.

BJD talk:

Most of you know that I have some BJDs that were made before 2008, but why does that matter?

That just goes to show you that there is hope to finding your grail doll if you are willing to wait and look around to find a legit or find a sculpt that is similar.

I am the fourth owner of this 2005 Dollmore bjd, and I found him secondhand from a woman who bought him on DOA. She runs a small shop at my local flea market and had other BJDs for sale. All of them under $500 with a full set along with other goodies.

Most recast owners are discouraged by the fact that these sculpts were limited and no longer around but that's not true. Don't be afraid to ask DOA users for advice or join discord servers, not all pro artist people will be rude to you. We just want to keep the hobby alive and be with people who enjoy these dolls. I myself am not rich, so I have to use layaway to get most of my BJDs. It's an option for you or even ask secondhand sellers if you can make payments. Just please don't justify art theft of any kind, even if the company is no longer around because it hurts the secondhand market .
