I bought the STL files for the Kabbit 3D-printable BJD and… I have no idea how to use (or where to access) a 3D printer.

help? especially if you have a makerspace you'd recommend in Tokyo (or on/near Cape Cod, MA).

I make all my own mohair doll wigs, and in this tutorial I will share my technique so you can create your own one-of-kind wig.  The instruct

my mom bought this gakuran for Ichīro in 2006 but he doesn't usually wear it because the buttons were comically out of scale.

20 years later, it occurred to me that I know how to sew a button? 🪡 it took awhile to find buttons that were the right size and I had to order them online but… ta-da! scale buttons for Ichīro's gakuran.

now I need to figure out how to bring in the hem of those pants because they're ½" too large, which is probably the doll equivalent of like three pant sizes. 🤣

“Evening…”

Logandolls Pim, masc bust/femme hip. Because I do like my dolls to be as enby as me. 💛🤍💜🖤

Still think their faceup may be some of my best work.

quick repair project: Ichīro's trench coat

my mom bought me this Volks trench coat set in 2005 or 2006. it's lost a lot of buttons since then, so I went and found buttons that more-or-less matched the original to replace them.

because the new buttons weren't exactly the same, I ripped off the remaining old buttons. (I actually think the new matte buttons look better than the old shiny buttons.)

it's past my bedtime and I have to go back to work tomorrow (boo!) but I got little buttons for the white shirt, too.

…nobody tell them, but I think they really might be my prettiest doll.

Although they do have some stiff competition.

Logandolls Pim in light tan, masc chest/femme hip options. Faceup is my doing. Eyes are cheap acrylics, but their eye wells are shallow enough to make them look good anyway. They’ve also stolen my ring to wear as a bangle.

Spooky season coming.

I think their faceup might be my best work so far not gonna lie.
