Now that I have two mini dorklet sibling pairs [Mini Silencitx & Mini Truthlet and Mini Ethancitx & Mini Meghna], they demanded a sleepover…even though Mini Silencitx and Mini Ethancitx don’t always get along.
Mini Silencitx may be a little asshole, but she’s right about gumdrops. They’re very waxy. :C
That’s Mini SIlencitx with the blond braid and the Hardship shirt, Mini Truthlet in yellow, Mini Ethancitx in silver and rainbow stripes, and Mini Meghna with the braid and jean jacket.
The set is one that I’ve never used for photostories before. It’s the sweet and snack shop that lives on one of my bookshelves in the living room.

It has come to my attention that my doll photostories confuse some people because I have several dolls representing the same characters. Forthwith, an overview of Silence and Ethan, the two Hardshippers with the most 1:6 scale representations at four each.

I’ve been working since yesterday on two gingerbread houses. Both are miniature kits from MGA’s Make It Mini series of resin crafts holiday series. @natalunasans gave me three gingerbread houses, so I felt free to go wild with at least two of them. Each gingerbread house kit came with a snap-together house, gumdrops, white cream squirts, and white resin icing. I used ingredients from other kits to enhance my houses.
I thought that Night and Day would each decorate their gingerbread house according to their interests. Night would make a Gothy haunted Halloween house. Day would make a nursery — or “nrsre,” as they spell it creatively.
After I finished Day’s “nrsre” and got about halfway through Night’s haunted house, I decided to do a photostory of them making at least one of the houses. I had to use my extra gingerbread house, toppings, and mini shoebox [the brown-painted base for each house] to fill in for some of the earlier steps in construction.
Someone can’t be trusted around all the candy!! :O

Silence has an older brother Truth. Because he’s six years older, he’s not usually part of the dorklets’ adventures. He is, however, very much like them in spirit.
I didn’t have any versions of Silence’s older brother in doll form up until now, but then I got an adorable Mattel Ricky head from Lyrajean. Ricky was a short-lived boy doll created as a friend for Mattel Barbie’s younger sister Skipper. He was only made for two years, and he looks like Mattel Allan, only younger.
Well, I moved the head onto a hybrid body made from the torso and arms of a Mattel Creatable World doll with hands from an unknown child action figure, pelvis, upper thighs, and feets from an Obitsu 24 body, and legs from a Spin Master Liv doll. I painted the hair gold to approximate a blond color and the eyes sort of hazel and dressed him in a Creatable World shirt, a pair of Barbie leggings that Lyrajean gave me, and Creatable World boots. I really wish that he bent better at the elbows, so I might work on that later, but he’s done for now. I did not intend to make any other Hardshippers to accompany Mini Silencitx and Mini Ethancitx, but I now have Mini Truthlet, who’s somewhere between 10 and 14 years old.
Truth in all his forms is a huge computer nerd, so Mini Truthlet shows off his computing magazines, which I made this week from scans of actual vintage computing periodicals from the late 1970s and early 1980s, reduced to 1:6 scale. He also shows off his computer [played by a Mattel Barbie Magic Moves windup toy, just like the camcorder], his various TVs, robots, and his other electronics…and, because he’s kind of a weird kid, his favorite snacks.
Most of this set accurately represents what might be in a kid’s room in the early to mid 1980s…with one exception. The pump-action squirt gun that Mini Silencitx is sneaking around with is inspired by the Super Soaker, which didn’t hit the market until 1990. I don’t care. It’s instantly recognizable as a squirt gun, unlike some of my other 1:6 scale weapons.

Mini Silencitx is reading when a kitty car drives past! It’s Mini Ethancitx’s latest toy!
RC kitty car is played by a Polly Pocket car with a mini articulated figure and accompanying pet cat. Thanks for the car, @natalunasans! The human figure is articulated at shoulders and hips, and both it and the cat wedge perfectly into the car. I love the kitty details on the car, especially the ears forming the rear-view mirrors…and the little tail in back. The antenna on the RC car is played by a sewing pin.

Toon Silence [who recently got a Mattel Made To Move Curvy body with great articulation] and Toon Ethan went for a walk this afternoon. Enjoying the low humidity [after days of gross air-moisture levels, interspersed with gross amounts of rain], they sauntered along the edge of Lake Champlain on the Burlington Bike Path. They were going to pull snacks out of their ridiculous bags and eat them, but I decided against it.

In the semi-sequel to my earlier bento box photostory featuring Toon Silence and Toon Ethan, two of @natalunasans dolls eat the other two bentos I have. Her characters are custom 1:6 scale figures of two Doctor Who characters, Ruth Doctor [with red and black locs] and the Spymaster [with cane].
The cat is a gachapon miniature of a cat posed as the subject in Edvard Munch’s painting The Scream. I just put it in there to be silly and puzzle the characters.

My two youngest dorklets are finished: Mini Silencitx, aged approximately 5, and Mini Ethancitx, aged approximately 7. Mini Ethancitx was finished yesterday, but not posted about till today.
Mini Ethancitx is an Elfdoll Doona Ryung [?] faceplate and headback on a Mr. Z. 7″ action figure body. I painted the resin to match and sealed it with some very diluted Aves Apoxie Sculpt. I made eyeballs out of painted spheres of Aves Apoxie Sculpt, which I mounted in the eyewells with hot glue and then painted irises on. Wig is faux fur. Outfit is a teeshirt made for 12″ fashion dolls, a skirt [and undershorts] from Mattel Creatable World doll, and shuz from Jakks Pacific Juku Couture dolls.
Despite some carving out of the eyes, the doll does not really look like Ethan, but it sure feels like Ethan.

In the second part of today’s Ginny’s Gym photostory, Ginny’s Gym barely makes an appearance. Instead Silencitx and Ethancitx take a walk, have a drink of water, and [for once!] cooperate reasonably well.
The highly detailed water bottle would work better as a small water bottle for 1:4 scale, but it also functions as a large water bottle for a 1:6 scale kidsy. I have three with similar cartoony characters — Japanese gachapon, of course! — on display in my toy store. Ethancitx’s doll is a figure that I used to play with [and chew on the legs of] when I was a kid. Fun fact: At one point I had a hairstyle, shirt, pants, and shoes that matched this doll pretty well.

Sadly, the glider swing does not fit Little Theo’s butt. It accommodates the narrow thighs of an Obitsu 24 [source of Little Allison’s hips], but not those of a Rainbow High doll [source of Little Theo’s body].

I picked up this fabulous swingset from the Sturbridge doll show I mentioned earlier. It was $75.00 and in perfect condition, with original packaging and instructions! It’s made for 8″ Ginny dolls, and it’s from 1955 [!]. The dorklets are between 8 and 10″, but they’re determined to have fun with it anyway. I mean — how often do you find a decent 1:6 scale playground?!

Ethancitx is a custom 3D sculpted, painted, and haired sculpt by me on an extremely hybridized body. Little Meghna is a Mattel Barbie Fashionista partially repainted by me and rehaired with a wig, on a Spin Master Liv body.
Little Meghna likes team sports and particularly likes to run. She is, however, very sarcastic, and she doesn’t think much of motivational quotes and inspirational sayings. I made her posters with free Canva templates. Continue reading The dorklets in…Little Allison’s Sleepover III!

The Body Shop is played by two roomboxes made by Bitty House. Most of the furniture is from Mattel Monster High Coffin Bean sets, either G1 or G3. Most of the drinks and snacks are either from Mattel Monster High G3 dolls or G3 Coffin Bean.
A shot of the entire Body Shop set shows that the roomboxes have walls of different heights, much to my distress. I have to extend upward the walls on the left.

Big dorks Silence, Night, and the Magister in…Dressing Up III!
In a sequel to the earlier dressing up stories, Silence and Night head to the Shuz Store before Halloween some 30 or 40 years later…
The “big dorks” of Hardship don’t appear in a lot of photostories, so I decided to invite them in. Silence is a custom sculpted, painted, and haired head on a BCS Clara body. Night is a Takara Cy Girl Blaze head, repainted by me, on a Hoy Toys female action figure body in “Cuban” skintone. Brocedony is a ThreeZero King Ezekiel head on a Hot Toys narrow shoulder male body. The Magister is…well, the Magister.
Yes, Night is missing her right eye. She showed up in Hardship under mysterious circumstances without it, and no one has ever learned what they were. Little Night has an empty eye socket to represent her lack of an eye. Big Night has a custom glass eye that’s entirely black, with a white skull where the pupil should be. I can’t paint such a minuscule skull, so just imagine one. :p

Dorklet Little Allison in…Roller Skating I!
When Moose Toys came out with Real Little shuz wave 2, there were funky roller skates as part of the offerings! I immediately became obsessed with kitting out all seven dorklets in roller skates. They’ve been sitting on my shelf, waiting for an opportunity to skate, for about a month, however. Today one of the dorklets, Little Allison, and her mom Elva got a chance.
Little Allison [who grows up to be the Allison in my recent Allison in Wonderland photoshoot] is a Jakks Pacific Juku Couture Kana head, repainted and rehaired by me, on a body that is Spin Master Liv from neck to waist, Obitsu 24 from waist to upper thigh swivels, and Spin Master Liv from mid-thighs to feets. This seems to be the best compromise I have found for kid bodies in other colors besides extremely white and slightly peach. Unfortunately, the Liv arms only have single-jointed elbows, but the tight, flexible Obitsu abdomen/pelvis allows for very expressive bending, curling, and crouching poses. This hybrid body can also wear shorts and teeshirts without showing any mismatching skintones. Plus the double-jointed knees are pretty decent.
Elva, Little Allison’s mom, is the black Curvy BMR 1959 head, aged, de-glammed, and given locs by me, on a Mattel Made to Move body that doesn’t fully match but I don’t care. She used to be the standard height, but I shortened her. I’ve finally found the secret to shortening MTMs. Instead of hacking through the thighs [which are solid and therefore composed of the thickest plastic on the doll], I now remove excess length from the hollow middle section of the abdomen and then from the ankles. You can significantly reduce the doll’s height this way with no harm to general proportions. In fact, the shortened waist helps the elbows and the hands to fall at more realistic places.

Dorklets visit a shoe store!
Jyll got me a Glitter Girls Sweet Shop for my birthday, and it made its debut as a shoe store in today’s photostory.
Starring Saba, an American Girl Girls of Many Lands Saba head on a Spin Master Liv body with custom wig, as shopkeeper.
Also starring Ethancitx [the dorklet in shorts] and Meghna, his older sister. Ethancitx is a custom sculpted/painted/wigged head with a body made from at least 5 separate bodies [including Obitsu 24 pelvis/upper thighs, unnamed AliExpress action figure arms, and Spin Master Liv legs]. Meghna is a Mattel Barbie Fashionista head with custom wig and faceup.
And introducing Battat Glitter Girls Sweet Shop as the shoe store! The shoes on the outside rack labeled Shoezies are, surprisingly enough, Hasbro Shoezies from the early 2000s. The rest of the footwear is Moose Toys Real Littles shoes, which fits with the playful aesthetic of the store.

Dorklets Night, Day, and Ethancitx in…Cooking Pizza IV!
Night runs out to purchase some ingredients.
The deli counter just came in the mail today. It’s part of a lithographed tin grocery store set made by Wolverine Toys in 1959. There’s also a folding backdrop including an illustration of a grocery store and shelves where mini foods can be stocked, but that will show up later. Originally the set came with a scale, a phone, and mini food packages, but I just got the deli counter and the folding backdrop.
The deli counter has a colorful illustration of salads, pickles, and very red meats — still vibrant after all these years! It originally stands just about 2 or 3 inches high, so I washed it with some warm water and dish soap and then mounted it on the counter of my Mattel Barbie Coca Cola Soda Fountain. I covered the scratched, stained countertop with white paper. The red on the deli counter matches the red trim of the counter set, creating a convincing deli. I added some silly signs, a few of my many kitchen appliances, and Sappho the Lesbian Love Bot [played by a 13″ Mego Jamie Sommers Bionic Woman doll with new wig and outfit] for the clerk. Then I was ready to play!

Over my break, I finally finally FINALLY got some corner walls painted. One of them even has functioning windows and functioning French doors. Both corners are beautifully done in spray painted primer. I am not done setting up the room, but the dorklets have already overtaken it.
More dorklets reading mini books I made!

I made a lot of miniature books recently.
I made some 1:6 scale books sculpted in open positions so that my dolls could hold them and easily appear to be reading.
Real Littles Shoes news — Amazon exclusive set for my dolls!
@natalunasans ordered me the Amazon exclusive Real Littles package that included two Real Littles bags, some exclusive Real Littles shoes, and some accessories. They came today! I really like the more saturated palette of the exclusive Real Littles shoes. Dorklets modeling below. Continue reading Real Littles Shoes news — Amazon exclusive set for my dolls!
Little Meghna got a new body!
It’s a slightly modified 10″ Disney Elite Rey body. I popped off the original head/neck assembly, cut off the neck from the Spin Master Liv body that Little Meghna was on, glued it down into the Disney Elite neck socket, and decided to ignore large gaps in socket/mismatched skintone. I filled some Real Littles running shoes with heat plastic to make sockets for the ankle balls. Now her parts match enough in color that she can wear shorts and short sleeves!

The Little Dorks in…The Playroom II!
Harry, inventor, tinkerer, and childless lover of kids, made a playroom for the dorklets with art supplies, tools, toys, and all sorts of goodies. In this installment, he picks out things for Allison [teddy bears], Ethan [knitting], Theo [camera], and Meghna [camcorder].
The Little Dorks in…The Playroom I!
Harry, inventor, tinkerer, and childless lover of kids, made a playroom for the dorklets with art supplies, tools, toys, and all sorts of goodies. Here he is introducing the dorklets to it. In this installment, he picks out things for Silence [the typewriter] and Day [the tools].
The playroom represents over two decades of creating, customizing, and amassing 1:6 scale tools, toys, art supplies, and such. A lot of it is gachapon, which are miniatures that come from Japanese vending machines. Japanese vending machine miniatures are extremely detailed, of much better quality than stuff from U.S. vending machines, and often suitable for 1:6 scale use!

Silencitx and Ethancitx dressing up!
On a whim I stuck one of my many 1:6 scale tophats on Silencitx, who looked so dashing that I gave her something approximating fancy dress. Ethancitx dressed up too. Silencitx is looking like a steampunk Mad Hatter, while Ethancitx is going for a funky 1980s vibe [because he’s growing up in the 1980s]. Continue reading Silencitx and Ethancitx dressing up!
Traditional canned goods for my kitchens
I have a bunch of little glass jars with corks in them filled with different kinds of rocks. I emptied out some of the rocks and made home-canned preserves with two of the jars. I put real jam and real honey in the jars and sealed them with hot glue. Then I put fabric circles over the tops. Voila! Continue reading Traditional canned goods for my kitchens
Redoing Silencitx’s hair with flocking
I cut off Silencitx’s ponytail and pulled out the remains with hemostats. Then I put glue on her head and unwound a dark brown/black pipe cleaner. I glued the bits of fuzz on her head. Result? Looks like she buzzed her head, which is exactly what I’m going for. Now she really looks like herself!
New set: Ethan’s doll studio — and some new dolls for dolls!
I finally put all my toys for dolls to good use and created a set of Ethan’s doll room. Besides doll customizing, he also likes robots, radio controlled things, steampunk, and sewing, so I put in appropriate miniatures in those categories.

The Little Dorks in…The Motorwagen!
Little Silence and Ethancitx went out in Little Silence’s Motorwagen this afternoon! With temps nearing 70, I took them to the waterfront, right in front of the wastewater treatment plant. [P.U.!] It was too blustery for me to show them starting the car and getting into it, so I just showed them driving. The model is a Franklin Mint 1:8 scale reproduction of an 1885 Benz Motorwagen, the first factory line gas-powered car. It’s too small for 1:6 scale adults, but it’s perfect for 1:6 scale kids!

The Little Dorks in…Kitty!!!!!

Today’s 1:6 scale work: new hands and Tarot deco
I decorated some of my 1:6 scale scenes with cards from my Tarot of the Sweet Twilight by Christina Benintende. I like the twisty, humorous, phantasmagorical designs on almost all cards, so I selected cards for each set based primarily on pictures.
I also gave 75% of the Little Dorks, Alison, the Little Witch, and the Little Fixit, new hands with which they could hold things. Little Bill will get new hands when I have the time. By drilling the holes bit by bit on a low Dremel setting and testing the new wrist pegs frequently, I achieved securely fitting pegs. That’s more than I could ever do when turning the Dremel up to highest speed. No melting plastic either!

New 1:6 scale spaces in the living room

The Little Shalka Dorks get busy with a new project: an old toy horse of my mom’s that we rescued from my parents’ attic around last Xmas. Little Alison is the one playing with dolls. Little Bill is the one reading pulp fiction. The Little Witch, in the cape and top hat, is my version of the Master when he was a little girl. The Little Fixit, with alien T-shirt and tool box, is my version of the Doctor as a kid. None of this information is really necessary to understand and enjoy the story.

Hacking a kid doll out of a Mattel Made to Move Barbie — arduous process, cute result
Hacking a kid doll out of a Mattel Made to Move Barbie — arduous process, cute result published on Read more posts by the author of Hacking a kid doll out of a Mattel Made to Move Barbie — arduous process, cute result, ModernWizardNo Comments on Hacking a kid doll out of a Mattel Made to Move Barbie — arduous process, cute result
Whenever possible, I like to work with doll supplies on hand, rather than buying new. Therefore, since I wanted to make a Little Bill with the recently released adorable Mattel Skipper Babysitter Inc. AA doll, I used an articulated body that I already had from Mattel Made to Move Gabby Douglas. I yoinked the Babysitter head off the original body and spent several days hacking the MTM body to the appropriate size.
I am never modding an MTM again. Unlike a Spin Master Liv body, which has partly [but not fully] solid limbs and a hollow torso, the MTM body has solid limbs and nearly solid torso pieces. That’s a lot of plastic to cut through.
Furthermore, the proportions of the MTM don’t lend themselves to creating kid bodies. While the Liv’s limbs are largely tubular, thus shortening without much deformation, the MTM’s limbs are just weirdly shaped throughout. The MTM’s elongated ankles are the worst. I cut down the core and limbs until the proportions looked good, then gave up on the ankles. I took out the feet and jammed the stumps into shoes that I filled with Aves Apoxie Sculpt. Covered by clothes, the reduced MTM looks convincingly like a chubby kid.

Another 1:6 scale kid is done chez Modern Wizard. It’s the Little Witch! Continue reading “I am the Little Witch, and you will obey me!”
The Juku gang [NB: not an actual gang]
I customized the one-footed redhead Jakks Pacific Juku Couture Audrina from @glaceleau today. I redressed her in an MGA Bratz dress and some random leggings, then took off her remaining foot. I filled some Mattel Barbie hightops [also from @glaceleau] with goo+goo=thing Aves Apoxie Sculpt, jammed her leg stumps in them, and made shoefeet. All dolls with Juku Couture heads then gathered for a group shot. All of them are unreasonably adorable. Four kids, and not a lick of fashion sense among ’em. ^_^Continue reading The Juku gang [NB: not an actual gang]
Behold Little Alison!
Little Alison is complete! She’s a representation of my interpretation of Doctor Who extended universe companion Alison Cheney, who appears in The Scream of the Shalka. She is a Jakks Pacific Juku Couture Kana head, repainted and rehaired, on a modified Noix de Rome Ninie body. I would have kept her on her original Juku Couture body, but it was all single-jointed, with an inability to sit realistically with thighs together, so I spent much time and labor splicing her onto a Ninie body for the double-ganged arms and knees, plus the realistic thigh position.
For head mods, I removed all original hair and paint, except for eyelashes. Removed a patch of skull to make hair removal easier. Carved out neck hole to fit Ninie neck. Repainted face. Made hair by gluing to scalp in spiral pattern. Made hair band from waistband of Bratz pantz.
For body mods, I wedged part of a fake plastic grape around neck prong to fit larger head opening. Painted neck and breast to roughly match head. Added upper arm swivel joints made of pins sunk into shoulders and held with Aves Apoxie Sculpt. Hot glue provided tight friction fit. Spliced original Juku Couture forearms onto Ninie forearms with Aves Apoxie Sculpt. Ripped off original squidgy feet and sank ankle stumps into plastic Barbie sneakers filled with Aves Apoxie Sculpt. Glued sneakers on ankle posts.
Also of note is that Little Alison is wearing a pair of pants that I handmade all by myself from a pattern that I reverse-engineered correctly on the first try. She was originally wearing some Bratz pantz that were the right length, but did not cover her butt. I ripped apart the pantz and reverse-engineered a pattern from them, being sure to add enough room to cover the butt, even when Little Alison was sitting down. These pants, sewn from stretchy knit, were the result.
I now know how to make two types of shirts, a collared one and a raglan sleeve one, and one type of pants. With this knowledge, I can make serviceable clothes for any of my dolls, no matter what the size. MUAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
In other words, all my dolls are going to wear novelty sock sweaters, loud printed cotton shirts, and leggings of questionable taste from now on. Continue reading Behold Little Alison!
Small populations from @natalunasans’ house!
