welcome to the dollhouse

This lady here is kind of giving me robot vibes, something about those uncanny blue eyes. I think I want to give her a kind of android makeover.

Anyhow. I want to chrome one of her hands are maybe one whole arm.

If I have things delivered to my home, they get taken to the wrong apartment and I may never find them. So I ordered something to be delivered to my job.

I had our hours in the delivery notes and their customer support assured me they had a note to the driver to not deliver if the building was closed.

Got a notification that my package was left on the sidewalk outside of our closed, locked building at 8pm.

What kind of idiot leaves packages on the public sidewalk?

What do you think the chances are that a delivery left unattended all night in the city will still be there in the morning?

Slim to none.

Something about her is putting me off

I definitely hate the lip color but its more than that

Maybe her pupils are too big 🤔

Sorry Ken, her name starts with a K too .

I am a low energy introvert. I need to mentally prepare to deal with folks i dont know. Especially multiple new people. Especially when I'm already in a bad mood.

There's three people I don't know, shoved into my workspace right now, chattering away. And they are sucking all the air out of the room.

At least thats how I feel. So I know its a me problem and not their fault.

On her

I plan to use a slightly darker pink than the reference picture as I think that would suit her better.

First, I'd like to take a moment to appreciate how gorgeous this doll is. Her screening is immaculate.

She came from one of the first wave you create kits. I didn't buy the whole kit but I was able to get her head, a matching mtm body and a few of the wigs from Mercari.

I originally had her on a petite body but I switched her to a tall and I think she looks fabulous.

Now, on to the hair.

I wish I'd had a few more of the brown braids leftover because the mix of colors complements her quite well. Makes a nice pop of color against the black.

The micro cord braids laid down very well after I poured some boiled water over them. I did wrap her head in plastic wrap overnight to really lay down the part.

This time I tried to leave more space between rows in the back of her head. It looks full without being bulky.

This was a bit of an experiment.

The brown braids in the front are what was left from the hair I bought from Shimmer Locks.

All of the black "braids" actually came from a roll of micro cord fiber. It mimics microbraids pretty well.

My concern now is whether or not a hot water rinse will lay them down and set the part.

Apparently I fed two his cat enemies right in front of him and he wasn't having it. I didn't know they didn't get along.

Anyway, after I fed those interlopers, i tried to call little cat over to our usual spot so I could feed him too and he turned his back on me.

I called him and he looked back over his shoulder like he had never seen me before in his life, ,"you must be a stranger cause my friend human would never fraternize with these scalawags" then he got up and walked away.
