funnily enough, this pine fairy started as me wanting to make a doll with a pinecone head, and then i forgot to take any photos where that detail is visible. the other pinecones may make up for that.

she turned out very different from what my vision originally was, but i love where she ended up.

cryptic-forge

found this head & a pair of wings in my box of misprints & unused doll parts -> put them together and gave her a faceup as a chill little project.

the drywood dryad is dormant in the summer, appearing like a dead tree, but walks around in the winter, growing fruit from its branches to feed crows & other birds.

this was inspired by my partner telling me to make something with a lot of crows. the prompt was originally for a warhammer mini, but i decided to also sculpt a bjd so i could have more details & use different materials.

this is currently one of my favorite dolls i've made.

cryptic-forge

i've made some moth girl bjds before, but i wanted to take the fluff to the maximum and make an art doll with fur.

the head is actually the first head i sculpted in blender a couple of years ago. i've had a printed copy ever since then, but it has never been right for a project. i meant to just use it here to check what head size would be good for this body, but ended up liking it and repainting it to work for this doll.

cryptic-forge

it's not quite spring yet where i live, but it's getting there. hence i made some seasonal lil buds. they're about 12cm tall, the head sprout included, so very tiny very precious.

cryptic-forge

i got swept away by the mightiest need to make a layered robot head that can be taken apart completely -> spent the last couple of days doing very little else than working on these two. they're mostly the same sculpt, but the pink one has some functional improvements compared to the black. all parts attach by magnets. the upper half of the mask can slide up and down, and the ears can rotate.

i have a matching body in progress, but these heads are enormous, so i'm not 100% sure if i will be printing it in this size. regardless, full modular robobuny coming up eventually.

[here is a lil video of me taking one of the heads into pieces.]

cryptic-forge

most of the paints i used on this doll glow in the dark, which also makes her look ultra saturated in regular light. she turned out mega cute & i love her.

cryptic-forge

the adult version of my plant baby sculpt i said i wanted to make!

this is also a remix of my first 3d sculpt. i didn't really feel the need to remake her before, but when i thought about what the adult design for the little buds would look like, i realized it was very close to that sculpt -> instead of starting from scratch, i edited it to be more in line with my current aesthetics & skill level. this also has the added benefit of making the old doll the awkward teen phase of this creature.

cryptic-forge

in a continuing battle to clean my desk of old projects, i finished this little troll with an abundance of teeth.

cryptic-forge

no leaves, but plenty of eyes.

inspired by me spacing out on a long drive & staring at trees. this happened earlier this year, and birches ended up growing leaves before i finished the doll.

all branches & roots are made of metal wire + hot glue, which makes them poseable and also keeps them from snapping.

Please give my newest doll Rune (Magic Mirror Branwen Elf in quartz) a warm welcome! She arrived last week after a long wait of 7,5 months. She’s a gorgeous and lanky doll, and I’m so glad I could order one, after the in stock one was sold out from under my nose in March at Epic Doll Fair.

I managed to finish both her Faceups on the weekend, so here’s a few quick pictures to show them off:

Let me share some full body pics along with her blank faceplates from her box opening:

Rune came with two faces, a human and elf version. I intend to primarily use the elf eared head. She unfortunately arrived with a broken finger, but Marta will be replacing the hand as soon as she’s able to get one made.

Fortunately, I was able to repair her hand in the meantime, and I’ll be concealing the break with some golden tattoo work, similar to he forehead design.

I’m actually really happy with how well I was able to repair the break, I did have to sand the overlap a little, but luckily her fingers are thick enough that taking off half a millimeter on each overhang did not change the optics.

She did get restrung and sueded by me (she came pretty much straight from the caster without being inspected by the artist), but I feel I need to restring her again, just a little tighter still. Her arms luckily are fine, but the body is loose. I may wire her too just for extra security. She will be getting shoes eventually, as I got some on order with another preordered doll from Impldoll.

The what is what:

Sculpt: Magic Mirror Branwen Fairy in quartz

Eyes: 14/5mm resin eyes by Ashuradark

Outfit: Handmade by Myrretah (modified to be smaller by me)

Wig: @hasels-aesthetics 7-8in made a little smaller by me

Aesthetics: me over at @izasfaceups in

A Morning full of magic ~

Thank you so much @joshybearhuggies for the FUN crochet tutorial for your ✨Comfi Cardi✨. It was so relaxing to make and your vid was lovely, I watched it twice while working just for the joy of it. Every step was easy with the visuals and description.

So! I used Lion Brand Ice Cream 3 weight and a 2.75 hook exactly like the tutorial and it fits perfectly on my Limhwa girl (1/3 BJD size). The edging is a thrifted thread so I'm not sure the size of that.

When it came time to decorate, I thought it looked so Kidcore that I had to put some kind of a collar on it. I used the exact technique from the cuff and hem, but started with a 10 chain and then slip stitched the ends of each row into its own half double crochet on the cardi edge (instead of slip stitching two together). I slip stitched into the loop on the right side of the garment only. I started the collar at about the bottom edge of the fourth row of granny clusters.

It turned out so cheerful and I'm thrilled to have a piece like this! Thank you again Joshy!!!! ♥️

@look-back-month-challenge 22. Favorite color scheme.

Currently my favorite is bold primary colors in a kidcore aesthetic, like this cardigan I crocheted last year!

It pains me that I don't actually have much in this color scheme 'cause I've been going all in with pastels for so many years XD I will make more!

I also wanted to wallpaper my detolf backgrounds in more primary colors but the thrift gods only offered me muted vintage wrapping papers so far so I'm just working with what I got!

#god I hope Colette sees this

look back month challenge, day 13: show your favorite toy

i was supposed to only be posting dolls from my monster high custom era, but i got a little bored with looking at and photographing mh instead of original work. so for this day, i'm expanding.

my favorites change day by day and mood by mood, but these are the ones that i'm feeling the most right at this moment.
