He still needs some gloss varnish on his eyes and I need to sew his outfit. The outfit of course being pastel stripey pyjamas, because this is Teddy Beddy Bear!

(Not my image)

I realise the colours of my doll aren't a perfect match, I was mainly concerned with matching the skin tone of the body I chose to use. I don't mind the colours he came out with though, they're not too far off from some of the officially licensed Teddy Beddy Bear toys.

This doll is a hybrid of a jumbo littlest pet shop deco pet bear and an Imomo Doll 1/6 "Toppa" body, in the "chocolate" skin tone.

Both the use of an Imomo body and the 80s toy theme were inspired by @queenofsquids Poochie and Fluppy dog customs, made using the larger Imomo bodies and modified Shibajuku Girls heads, if I'm remembering correctly. I still hope to try that hybrid eventually, I have a box of Shibajuku Girls in storage for eventual custom projects but their body sculpt has never appealed to me... tangent!

Here's a picture I found from the start of this project in 2023

I think that Jiggly Caliente confessional in the background sums it up well enough. This was me supergluing the LPS head to a Liv doll neck peg. I ended up really not liking these proportions after a while, hence the drastic switch.

This picture is from 2024! Much more proportionally sound in my opinion, but I tend to prefer a chunkier doll anyway.

And here's now! I think this doll is my first flocking experiment, which may explain some general messiness, but I think it's quite a cute look!

she is a Volks Mini Dollfie Dream, Mochi-ashi 2.0 with DDH-06 head in Flesh.

her top and skirt were purchased from the dealer’s goods section in Doll Point Akihabara. socks and shoes are from Volks’ official lineup.

the eyes and wig are from DOLLCE in Akiba, and both are handmade. her pigtail buns are magnetically attached!

faceup is by me, though I’m not in love with it. I can still picture her with a different head painted by a professional. maybe I’m just overused to the sculpt, since it was Galaxia’s for a long time.
