February's Tea Party

First doll meet of the year, and it was awesome!  Hosted by moi, but lots of people helped, bringing in some tea from home, things like that.  It was a great turnout and everyone was really nice.  And one of our newer members just got his first doll!  Yay!

The little guy in green on the left is new!

Playing on Computers

This is just a little one shot, Amiga and Comrade looking over at each other's laptops.

Comrade: I'm clothes shopping, I swear!

Eyelashes

I got brave, and finally put eyelashes on Amiga.  I've been so worries about them looking monstrous, too long, too dark, doing it wrong, all sorts of excuses.  But today, I did it!  I sized and trimmed them, then put tacky glue on her eyelids and carefully placed them on.  I really should have made a tutorial, but I had no idea I'd be doing it right.  Now she's among the eyelashed dolls.

2014's Last Doll Meet

At the very tail end of a great year, some of us got together for one last doll meet before 2015.  Good turnout, lots of dolls, lots of fun, and if you know me, lots of pictures!  Gave my new camera a workout.

Tandrelim Photobomb!

Comrade's Wig

As some of you may know, Amiga's getting a new friend soon, a boy named Comrade.  Well, his wig came in before he did, and I had to make sure it was the right size, so I had Amiga put it on.  It actually looks really good on her, lol!  But it will be perfect for Comrade, who should arrive in January.

Amiga & Tandrelim's Christmas Swap

Amiga and Tandrelim live close by, so they got to exchange gifts in person!  A wonderful time was had by all.

Merry Christmas Tandrelim.  This is for you!

Amiga's New Eyes

She got new eyes today!  Not really worthy of a whole gallery, but good for a one-shot.  And I love her expression in this one. :D  I'm switching my pic to this one.  She's just got the best smile!  I love this doll.

I got the eyes from Captured In Glass.

Gallery: Amiga's Fashion Show 2

It's been a very long time since I had a good ol' fashion show, and Amiga's wardrobe has improved, so let's see it!

Gallery: Find Amiga!

 Okay, I know this is a little silly, but I wanted to post pictures of my new apartment, and I wanted more doll pictures.  So I did a little Where's Waldo thing and put Amiga in every picture.  Be amused!

Interview with Amiga

 

Jobee: How do you like living with your roommates?

Amiga: They're all very nice. I feel a little awkward, being the tallest of Jobee's dolls, but her sister has a roommate taller than me, so we hang out when we can. Zeebee is quite an interesting character, coming from outer space and all. Lola is very mature and intelligent. Feebee likes to relax in comfy sweaters, and Gabby is always getting into trouble somehow.

Gallery: Amiga's Summer Swap from Dum-E

Today, Amiga got a big package from Dum-E (and Loki and Tony) in London!  Here's what Amiga received and her reactions to it.

Gallery: Amiga's Packages

Since I'm making a teensy bit of money now, I was able to score some low-priced things on Ebay for Amiga.  Rather than make a blog post for each one, I waited to make this blog post to show them off all together.  This is what I bought her. ^_^

 

Amiga's New Faceup

Been meaning to do this for a while.  I was unhappy with Amiga's lashes and eyebrows.  I also wanted to add some color to her cheeks.  This was a challenge with acrylic paint, but dabbing a cotton ball into watery paint did the trick!  The mouth is the same because I really like it.  Here's a side by side comparison.

Gallery: Amiga's Summer Swap from Bird

Amiga's been a very busy girl this summer.  She's done summer swaps with two people!  This is the gifts she received from a boy doll named Bird.

Woohoo!  I've made a bunch of clothes for Amiga over the past month, workin' my little fingers to the bone.  Here's the fabulous payoff!

Gallery: Amiga explores the backyard

Here's my first photoshoot back in the saddle!  The pictures are taken with my phone, so they're not as clear as they used to be, but I think they're still quite nice.

Amiga's Face-up

Hello again!  The next step in Amiga's adventure has come; her face-up.  I didn't go for very realistic.  I went for cartoony and cute.  And her eyes aren't in, so I borrowed a pair of eyes from my sister.  Here's the results!

The Return of Dollies & Stitches

After a 2 year hiatus, I have returned to the dolly fandom.  I went a little crazy with the Hujoos and burned out for a while there, in addition to real life stuff.  But now I'm back!  And I bring with me a beautiful 60cm Obitsu named Amiga.

  

There she is hanging out with some My Little Pony stuff.  Yes, I'm a Brony, or Pegasister.  Her first outfit is, of course, made with socks.  Today I will take her to the fabric store to choose the materials for her first outfit.
