Heads Will Roll

I'm kiradyn_rhiode on Den of Angels and this is my doll blog! :) I collect mainly SD-sized dolls and Tinies.

Because Flickr is being a little *****. :/

My Prince Claude head from Rainwaltz just arrived!! :D He's got such a gentle, serene vibe to him. XD

[thegeminian]

I really thought I'd uploaded the pics from this shoot to Tumblr, but I guess not. :B

Cal and Luce had some downtime and tried to make the best use of it. :)

Gosh, I really, really adore Cal. *u* He's just such a wonderful sculpt, and his faceup is amazing!!! >u< As for Luce... He's currently off getting a new faceup. I decided to have Ladious paint him up a new face. :D

Geh, Lucien's teeny, narrow little eyes make it insanely hard to capture his eyes without getting an upnosed-buck-toothed shot. :P

I love him, but I think I'll need to change his default faceup. Crobi's faceups are awesome and all, but they're usually too dark and dramatic for my liking. I ended up changing my Kitten Lance's faceup too, and I love him more for it. Time to find Luce a faceup artist! :)

If I could, I'd get Rapunzel to do it, but these days, Rapunzel only seems to take Volks commissions, and even then, it's almost impossible to get a slot. D: I wonder who else can do that pale, natural, ethereal sort of faceup...

Took Kai and Luce out for photos together, since they're supposed to be best buds and all, but I haven't gotten my new desk lamp yet, so the shots turned out rather crappy. I did take some individual portrait shots near my existing lamp, though, and those turned out a bit better.

I really need to take photos of this guy in daylight. =___= Artificial light simply doesn't do him any justice!!!

[thegeminian]

Amaryllis got a new pair of eyes! :D I decided to swap out her shimmery hazel glass eyes from a pair of lower-domed caramel brown ones, and I think they suit her better! ^u^

She's in the DollHeart dress I bought off Ara (or rather, from Ara's girlfriend's DH Yo-sized fukubukuro). I meant to have a shoot with her and Astraia down at LaSalle's 'grassy knoll', but when I went down with Kevin, there were film crew of some sort, and I've not yet been back. I still want to do that shoot with them, though. :P

New Makoeyes post!! 8D This is the last (I think) of the Makoeyes set, since I only got 4 pairs for specific dolls. The other 3 pairs were either for incomplete dolls or just because I didn't have eyes in those colours and sizes in my box. :P

Kairos has the cobalt blue eyes from the Gladiolus series! 8D I actually got a 18mm pair for him, but then I realised that the 16mm ones fit better. I like the 18mm colour better, though, so I may re-purchase them in 16mm. ^u^

He's in a furwig this time, because the fibre wig I got for him takes a bit of finessing to sit right and all that, and I happened to have a furwig of a match-able colour lying around. ;D

I'm undecided as to whether he looks better in fur or fibre wig...

The last of today's Makoeyes posts, I promise!! *///* (I want to get shots of Kairos in his new eyes, but I've not popped them in him yet, so his pics can wait. :B)

Callum is also wearing eyes from the Amaryllis range. ^^;; (Kairos' eyes are from the Gladiolus range, which I actually prefer more...) They're a limey, spring-leaf green. 8D I decided to follow my heart and go with my original design of a green-eyed redhead. I just looooove that colour combination. >u<

And here he is, working his hot, hunky, resin magic. p(((*///*)))q

Oh my~

[thegeminian]

Yet another pair of Makoeyes eyes!! 8D I got, uh, 7 pairs. =________=;;;; They were on discount!!! *O*

This is also from the Amaryllis line, and they are a wonderfully rich-hued purple!! *u* I was a tad afraid that the purpleness would be faded into pale indigo because of the camera sensors, because mine don't seem to pick up certain shades of purple well, but this pair turned out fine, even without the photoshopping. 8D Yay!!!

I popped Vanya's head on a little coffee cup, because Francis had already reclaimed the SSDF body (from Mikey), and I didn't feel like beheading him, only to put his head back on again. :P Poor Vanya? XD

[thegeminian]

My Makoeyes order arrived today!! *u* The eyes are so pretty!!! >u<!! I got a bunch of the Amaryllis and Gladiolus.

The Amaryllis line have pretty sparkles inside, like fine flecks of glitter. The Gladiolus is just clear, no lines or sparkles or such, but like glass eyes with the depth of a high dome, without actually having too high of a dome. 8D I really like those. I think I will get more Gladiolus eyes in the future. *w*

Francis is trying out his new eyes. They're a pair of 12mm eyes from the Amaryllis line. :3 Next time, I'll go for a close-up to get the glitter effects. :)

I finally got round to photographing and uploading my sales items! x_x!!! Vasya was my very helpful wig model (for the SD-sized wigs, at least). I chose him because he's just got such a lovely face that would fit any wig, and his head is so small, all the wigs will fit him. :P Some of them were a bit large, but those were the 9-10" ones.

These 2 photos were my favourite shots of the day, proving once more that I just love Vasya in long wigs. *u*

Ella’s little chick set arrived!! 8D She seems rather amused at the fact that her hat has stubby little wings. XD

[thegeminian]

A pic from yesterday’s meet: such an adorable little dragon!! 8D

[thegeminian]

Last one for the night, I promise!! 8D He’s just to delicious not to post up too!! This is Callum, my luscious hunk of resin beefcake! X3 He arrived home with Kairos, and while I love my dear F38, I can’t deny that Iple Claudes just have a certain charm to them. 8D Two smirky dolls arrived home from faceup together? How adorable. X3

But yes, he’s just too yummy not to post. 8)

[thegeminian]

And because I can. 8D I love Kai!! I do wish he wasn’t so pretty, though. D: Why do all my boys end up too pretty? .__.;;

[thegeminian]

I hadn’t realised how unfocused the previous pic of Kairos was, so here’s a (hopefully better) one. :3 I’d include the other pic of him in this post, but my iPad app will only let me upload a single photo. :P

[thegeminian]

Kairos is home!! Just a quick pic run through a program on my iPad. :)
