As a rule, all purple kimonos are pretty~ Lucky you~

:D Ain't that the truth! I still remember how the home-ed classes were so dull when we were sewing. But that was mainly because the teacher didnt let us do much besides an apron and a very simple skirt. and all these things, now that I have more experience, look like something super horrible. Weird ...

It's been a long 7 years of school and lots of papers/projects. And all that I've learned you could basically learn on youtube if you find the right videos. XD

Oh my, that's not nice of your mom.

Kitalpha, the one I found looks like this:

Kitalpha.. you evil person. XD These are so adorable!

Silverfire, it still sucks. How is one supposed to become "in-house" if they don't even give you a chance.

=/ the usual "must have x years of prior experience in the field" requirement?

I feel you.. I'm half a year away from graduating Uni and I have two part time jobs. Neither have really offered pay yet, but hopefully soon.

Oh my, Souldolls dolls are super cute.. But they are a bit on the pricy side.
I hope you'll get to collect money for them soon~ I know how it feels to just dream and wish!
I got my first dolls from art commission payments, so fulfilling.

Kipalta, Shaaree, shaaree~
I wanna see what they look like
(sorry for poofing, was making avatar art and got a bit distracted by it)

SilverFire, that sounds like a lovely bunch. Are you planning mostly girls or boys?

Dollies is kimonos is my weakness too D= I actually found a yukata/kimono at a second hand shop recently and immediately thought I would make it into a dolly version. I also sometimes think about getting more dolls, but I don't even have them all properly dressed yet! The hybrid (Miro doll body) doe...

Do you have any sculpts you've been looking at for them?

Ohohohoo~ Looking fabulous already!
What program are you drawing in?

Ryvvi, hahaa, I know what you mean! I've spent most of my time just drawing (tool shaded pixeling is drawing, right?) clothes on bases. So yeah.. Figures.. not much practice, clothes.. well.. more.

The width of the belt is just about a cm if I remember right. But it's really not hard to work in that scale. You just have to be extra careful and not cut off anything before you're sure it's right. XD

hahaa! Absolutely!

I also have the issue of making sketches of figures and then leaving them to sit because what the hell am I supposed to do with the hair and clothes. D= Sometimes I wish I had Oc-s or something.

Here's a better view on the dress. https://40.media.tumblr.com/b9817d8586a487907739111886b954d2/tumblr_n5o7xla1bS1ta3m6oo2_1280.jpg The print is hand painted with acrylics by the way. :) It's a continuation from a galaxy print collection I worked on a few years back. Here's a sample of that one . Th...
