Lidia Meets Homura

Photo Story of Lidia and Homura is 'finnaly' up and live on Figure.fm! Yup, it sure took a while for the script editing... finding time sucks, but I blame Poofie on this one! :P This photo story is a collaboration between Poofiemus and myself. Looking really forward to producing some more photo stories down the road! This one was my biggest one yet that I've done. 48 photos in all!

Hope you all enjoy! :)

Just the usual work on modeling for Hrists armor, and hopefully wrapping up loose ends on her outfit. Been heavily side tracked in my free time watching the Dota 2 Internationals this year. Real exciting stuff, for me anyway.

Hrist's Gown Part VII

Working a bit lately on finishing up Hrist's armor bits. few painting issues. I needed to address. I will soon be experimenting a bit on those broken pieces with some new finishing ideas I have in mind.

Some update photos on the gown, well older ones that I promised to post after the doll meet, and a week later getting around to doing that >_>;;;; where does time go? D:

Yeah, these photos are a bit sub average >_> Taken with my phones camera.... it's bad. but sometimes it serves its purpose...

Still working on the two rear drape belts. Only managed to finish one so far X_X And am currently deciding if it's a style I'll use or the other one I had in mind which seems to not be working right now...

Till next time...

Hrist's Gown Part VI

Hrist's outfit's 90% completed! All that's left is the making of her 2 rear belt drapes which will require some intensive embroidery, if I stick to the plan >_> Also at the last minute I've pondered the idea of a hip flap panel thingy... no idea what it's real name would be, if it has any, but I'll call it the hip flap panel thingy for now.

Hrist flaunted her new outfit at the June - Arizona Dollfie Meet.

Which sure turned a lot of heads for an uncompleted gown. Needless to say Hrist was quite happy.
Lots of dolls at the meet this month. Hrist did keep her distance from most social situations, aside from stepping in to save Agatha from a dragon cuddle attack.

Hrist: We're friends now! Dragons are just misunderstood Toothless?

Agatha being smothered by dragon cuddles.

Hrist saving Agatha from certain peril.

Lidia's dragon subjugation training has come in handy for Hrist.

Creamy Mami!

Now that the fun is over, it's back to work on finishing up her gown! Hopefully which, it will be completed before I see Poofies Toothless completed. ;) The race is on!

Hrist's Gown Part V

Lots of work lately, I think I'm barely sleeping with this project >_> Might be slightly effecting my job too, dazing off thinking about the gown and what to do next... Not a good combination. But work is definitely progressing rather swiftly. I haven't had a chance to take many photos, and those that I have, I can't stay focused long enough to transfer them to the PC and get them ready for posting :X so! The next post should have some photos of the project so far :D I'm debating on keeping it a little bit 'black' atm since there's a doll-meet this up coming Saturday I'd like to be able to unveil this project there... but only if I can manage to get it finished :X

Anyway, next post will have photos! :D And more news.

Hrist's Gown Part IV

Some new updates for Hrist's gauntlets and custom hands. Works nearly 90% done! All that's left is refining and adding a final protective coating on. All these photos were taken with flash, which makes it look a lot more glossy then it actually is at the moment... >_>

 Both shown in the photo below, I had to re-bore out the upper armor just a bit to allow it to fit on easier. Everything fit perfectly. Really liking how the gloves have turned out so far. I'll have to buy a second pair of sword hands for Lidia soon so I can modify them as well.

Now, for the main news with the new outfit! Hrist's new outfit is pretty much under full work now, any ounce of free time (which is extremely few) I've had lately has been dumped into work on it. Starting to get excited about this project, hopefully it turns out as well in the end...

Hrist's Gown Part III

Some updates for Hrist, I received her new hands from Volks the other day and couldn't wait to dive into this project. I decided to not print 3D hands as of now... it seemed more efficient to just modify the hands and still get the vinyl feel to it as well. Plus I can paint her nails too for her ;)
Paint cure + Viynl's kinda wonky too so far. Few concerns I have with this, but time will tell. :) Back to waiting on paint to dry...

 Shown here, is the first coat on after the primer, plus the armor plates added to the thumb. Wrinkles will be more smoothed out eventually, I wanted a relaxed fabric look through out the gloves. Pretty excited how this will turn out in the end.

As for Hrist's other project... it's a massive one. as usual. >_> Hrist never settles for anything less!

 This project, I'm doing a liner for. I also wound up recreating her dummy profile for a bit more 'fitted' Even with all this new stuff, I think my sewing still sucks hardcore though. X_X But it is what it is.

 Embroidery work for the main sleave part.

Hrist's Gown Part II

Managed to crank out a concept plan that I'm happy with, and finally finished creating most of the pattern pieces for Hrist's new gown tonight. Starring at all my sketches and prototype designs I get this feeling this will be quiet a fun, yet nutty project at the same time.
Should have some new photos to post on my next post once the cutting, and shaping process begins! Most likely I'll begin with the liner for this.
