MOAR JEWELS!
While waiting for my custom printable for the 50/50 to arrive, I have been working on holiday exchange things. For dolls. Because. So, once again, walk into the land of camera skills that totally rock (*snorts, holding back laughter*).
BEHOLD! 1:6th scale shenanigans!
Click the pictures. They are much better when you can see them in true cinematic horror. Also, they are clearer. (Not really.)
Yes, yes, I am working on a custom doll. Ignore the sanding marks. It's a WiP... mah doll back and forth. Mah doll back and forth....
Okay, shakey hands struck again. You get the idea. Most close with S clasps, but some are just wraps. Because.
Okay. The glaze on that one is still drying. The light was fading! I needed picts!
Never mind. Into the 1:4 & 1:3 scale stuff!
Another. Another!
I swear it looks much better in person!
Sometimes I wonder why I try to photo silver against an aluminum foil base for my gown designs. Like a fool.
Answer: Hands.
This one is not so bad, I think. Also, that one above making me think of a Crown of Thorns sort of necklace... or head piece. The Inspiration!
Magical purkle orb like thing! Bingy blingy bling bling.
MWAHAHAHA. I really should get the rose gold and copper wire. I wonder if they make it in onyx finish..?
Once the back, fronts, sleeves are knit, one begins to feel that the "knitting" is done. But lots of work left for facings & collar. Weaving and assembly, too, of course.
One of the last steps I have when painting a vinyl record is to go in with black paint (and quite possibly the tiniest paintbrush you've ever seen) and paint over the imperfections.
For this video, I'm just covering up the more obvious pencil lines that I use for symmetry, though I often use the same method to "separate" dots that have merged together to form awkward looking blobs, and even alter the shape of dots that aren't as round as I want them to be
This step is incredibly time consuming so trying to convince myself to start the process is always a massive internal battle, but I actually enjoy it quite a bit once I'm in the groove!
How are you spending your Saturday night? I'll be hand hemming about four meters of coat... and then attach the sleeve linings by hand as well as finishing the buttonholes by hand. Which is a lot of work, but it also means I'm almost done!

A reminder to all my lovely fellow writers: progress is progress, even when it isn't. Writing four thousand words in a session is progress. Writing a hundred words in a session is progress. Removing an entire scene because it doesn't flow well is progress. Rethinking your plan for the plot in order to get unstuck is progress. Development looks different for every writer and every story.
