Flaming Hot Pussy is kitted out!

MGA Rainbow High stuff for 1:6 scale dolls!
MGA has a newish line of big-headed, single-jointed dolls with really high-quality, detailed outfits. The line is Rainbow High, and, while I’m not a fan of the big heads, I like the bodies, clothes, shoes, and some accessories. Recently I repurposed some of the stuff for my 1:6ers. Continue reading MGA Rainbow High stuff for 1:6 scale dolls!
Carnelian got a new body and a new hairstyle!
I like Carnelian’s toothy, unhinged grin, but her original body covered all useful joints in squidgy skin, so she couldn’t hold a pose well. Inspired by my work on Twerpcat, I thought of the human headsculpt that Carnelian uses, and I decided to work on her.
Tonight I gave her an updo of a ponytail not pulled all the way through the holder. I also plopped her on a Takara Cy Girl 1.0 body which doesn’t technically match, but looks close enough. Though it’s single-jointed, shiny, and slightly tanner than her head, it’s also tight, solid, and capable of standing alone and holding poses. Because the body had a cracked ankle cup, I removed the ankle cup, sank screws into the ankles, and put MGA Bratz feetz on the heads of the screws.

Twerpcat in progress
Carnelian, my catwitch, came with an eerily grinning anthropomorphic cat head. When I visited @natalunasans in 2018, I saw that she gave the cat headsculpt its own body. I kept my cat head, but didn’t do anything with it.
Then last week I got the idea of sticking the head on a Lakor Joker Baby body. The body came a few days ago, but without any of the extra hands for some reason. Nevertheless, the cat head looks wonderful on the body, making a small goblinoid creature whose expression is one of pure glee over how much of a little shit it is.

Three’s better tie
In my ongoing quest to increase the tackiness of my Third Doctor, I made a louder tie out of blue velvet ribbon. Continue reading Three’s better tie
Beryl the fashionable witch is done!
I moved her onto a Mattel Made to Move, painted exposed parts to match her head, added gold fishnets, and called her done. I decided not to fight the frizzy hair, clipped it up in the back, and combed it forward and out in a corona, and decided that was enough of a style for her.
How to improve a GOML part II — Qingting gets a makeunder
I recently articulated an American Girl Girls of Many Lands doll. Then I recently improved her by removing her overdone lipstick. They made her look like she was pursing her lips. Now she looks more relaxed.Continue reading How to improve a GOML part II — Qingting gets a makeunder
Working on Beryl the fashionable witch
Beryl is a Mattel 2006 Pink Label Wicked Witch of the West [Wizard of Oz] doll who, I decided, needed bright clothes to compliment her green skin. I acquired a used [but original] Silken Flame velvet coat locally and a vintage clone Silken Flame dress from Ebay. Obitsu wrist joints, Takara BBI Cy girl gloved hands, BBI arm sleeves, MGA Hi Glamm boots. Eventually gonna put her on a green-painted Mattel Made To Move body so that she can ride her vehicle of choice: a flying Vespa! Need to do something about her crappy hair too.
