Certain toon Hardshippers were updated this weekend with items from a recent shipment of Disney ILY4ever dolls and fashion packs.

Two little dorklets and how they grew
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.

Today I finally finished my Toon Day 2.0. They now have their fur wig in the proper color for their long messy hair.

I’m disturbed by his pants, which impugn his old-fashioned sense of modesty by showing off the body parts underneath. I might have to add a floor-length skirt. Nevertheless, I’m very pleased with the simple paint job on the head and the ease with which the paint stuck to the resin and followed my directions. I thought I hated painting. Turns out I just really hated painting slippery [probably unwashed] resin prints.
Behold the Toon Magister! And Toon Silence! Help I wuvs dem!

Even in unfinished form, he looks so happy and gentle! HELP I WUVS HIM.

Toon Truth has been completed! He is a Disney ILY 4ever Christmas male doll head, repainted and rehaired, on an Obitsu Slender Male body with neck and forearms painted to match, and action figure hands. His glasses are from a Mattel fat Fashionista Ken a few years ago, his shirt from Mattel Ken in the 1960s [?] from my friend Lyra, and his pants from Mattel Ken Fashionista fashion pack.

Ever since HeroForge, an online character customizer specializing in tabletop gaming miniatures, introduced the ability to sculpt the miniatures’ faces, I’ve been making my favorite characters in the system. Naturally I improved my earlier versions of various Hardshippers, and I came up with a stylized Magister who looked both old and also very sweet and avuncular.
Continue reading The Toon Magister redux!Toon Dorklet 7 of 7 FINISHED: Toon Theo!
The last dorklet to have a first version of her completed, Toon Theo is here!
Toon Theo originally started out as a Jakks Pacific Disney ILY Mickey and Minnie fan head on the same body. I swapped her lower body for an MGA Rainbow High one to represent the fact that Theo is shorter and fatter than, say, Allison.
Along the way, I grew dissatisfied with the similarity of all the Disney ILY 4ever headsculpts, so I changed Toon Theo’s head to a Mattel singing Asha head. [Asha is the main character of Disney’s most recent animated musical Wish.] With an erasure of her freckles, a repaint of her eyebrows, and a gloss of her eyes, she was ready to join her bestest friend and love Allison!
Now I’ve just got to do Toon Day 3.0, the Toon Magister, and Toon Truth!
That’s two more toon Hardshippers than I ever planned on… :/

I took some pictures of the latest iteration of Toon Day with the rest of the finished Toon Dorklets…

I bought the Jakks Pacific Disney ILY Bambi fan doll because I thought that the rooted blond hair and the smirk would be good for Toon Day.

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.

Probably the most extensive treatment of these Rement bento box lunches that I will ever produce, this photostory features Toon Silence and Toon Ethan having lunch. I imagine that this scene takes place in the courtyard of Hardship High. Weird plants are played by a plastic landscaping piece for use in an aquarium.

Repainted her eyebrows and gave her some shuz. Now she’s done!
Continue reading Toon dorklet 6 of 7 FINISHED: Toon Allison!Toon dorklet 6 of 7: Toon Allison!
Modded Toon Allison’s wrists and forearms to allow greater flexion, cut her hair, and dressed her up. She still needs shuz and repainted eyebrows, but she is close to done!
Continue reading Toon dorklet 6 of 7: Toon Allison!Toon Silence and Toon Ethan in…Goblin Market Adventures 01!
Couldn’t wait to show off my grocery store in progress, so I incorporated the mess into a photostory. Sadly the mess thwarts Silence and Ethan, who are 16 and 18, respectively, but still interested in mischief!

My favorite adult Hardshipper will eventually be joining the Toon Dorklets. Yes, folks, it’s TOON MAGISTER TIME!! Continue reading It’s Toon Magister time!!!
Toon Day has been completed!
Today I made Toon Day a fur wig, stripped most of original lip paint, and redid their eyebrows. Yup, that’s Day all right! Continue reading Toon Day has been completed!
Toon dorklet 5 of 7: Toon Meghna!
I finished Toon Meghna today! Originally I planned for her to be Toon Ethancitx, but that didn’t work out. Continue reading Toon dorklet 5 of 7: Toon Meghna!
Toon dorklet 4 of 7: Toon Ethancitx!
Toon Ethancitx was originally going to be a Disney ILY 4ever Cinderella fan, but that turned out to be Toon Night. Then he was going to be a Disney ILY 4ever Ariel fan, but that turned out to be Toon Meghna, who’s still in progress. Then Nata reminded me that I had a toon Spymaster doll and, since both the Spymaster and Ethan are based on Sacha Dhawan, I decided to convert my toon Spymaster into Toon Ethancitx.
I trimmed off the sculpted hair and gave him a blank forehead instead. Then I repainted him, removing a lot of the shading and eyebags that the toon Spymaster had. I made him a wig of faux fur and dressed him in a comfy outfit with sparkles and purple and rainbows, and he was done!
Toon dorklet 3 of 7: Toon Silencitx!
Finally I finished Toon Silencitx! Continue reading Toon dorklet 3 of 7: Toon Silencitx!
Toon dorklet 2 of 7: Toon Day!
I knew that I wanted to use a Disney ILY 4ever Jasmine fan [same sculpt as for Toon Silencitx] for Toon Day, but I didn’t expect to finish Toon Day first!
Originally I wanted to shorten Toon Silencitx’s body, so I took about 1.5cm of height out of the torso and 0.75cm out of the ankles. This made the body too short for her, but a perfect height for the youngest dorklet. I removed the tits and used the body for Toon Day.
Toon dorklet 1 of 7: Toon Night!
Disney came out with some ILY 4ever 12″ fashion dolls early this month. They are teenage girls in Disney cartoon style wearing outfits inspired by various Disney princesses. I have very little attachment to Disney princesses and a generally critical view of the Disney entertainment conglomerate, but I immediately started seeing toon dorklets in the various headsculpts. Result: I am now making toon versions of all seven. I bought the Disney ILY 4ever Cinderella fan and Jasmine fan, intending to make Toon Ethancitx and Toon Silencitx first, but, unexpectedly, Toon Night was the one I finished first.
