The Right Hair

 When I ordered Tyghan, I envisoned him to be a redhead, as I thought SJ's peach cream resin would be more along the lines of Iplehouse's peach gold.  When Tyghan arrived, I found the peach cream resin to be closer to Iple's normal than peach resin, and the red wig I had in mind for him didn't fit him, so I had to pivot. The first wig I tried on him had more brown tones, and not much warmth to it.

While I liked this wig, it wasn't what I really wanted.  Recently I was perusing Amadiz's site, as I often do and came across a golden blonde wig I took a chance on being perfect for Tyghan. I'm very pleased with the result. I think Tyghan has finally found his 'look'.

I think this color has the perfect amount of 'warmth' to it, and the volume is think enough to let his elf ear peek through, which I love.

Still Contemplating Characters

 Still contemplating Tyghan and Meridyn's characters, and decided to throw my RD Elf Lily into the mix. I'm thinking these 3 may be a found family.......................I would need to change her eye color for her to be their daughter, but she could be an adopted daughter. I like the three of them together.

Lily with Meridyn

And Meridyn with Tyghan. I do love these 2 together.

Contemplating Characters

 Still playing with these 2 and contemplating how they might fit into the "Glade" world. While Leo isn't a redhead as I originally envisioned him, I still think he works well with my Elf Monica from RD.

And a bonus shot of Meridyn, my Elf Monica

Is Anyone Still Out There?

 Hello folks, I know it's been a while. Is anyone still out there? As typical of me, there have been ebbs and flows in my dolly collecting and I've gotten away from photographing my fantasy group of MSD dolls. I'd like to try and remedy that and start sharing more here again. I did get a new doll in recently, SartoriaJ's Elf Leonard. I'm hoping maybe he will spur me into taking some new photos and diving into my fantasy realm of characters a bit more again. Some pics of Tyghan. I'm not sure where he fits into my group, but I am quite enamored with this sculpt. I'm looking forward to photographing him more to see where he might fit in. So hopefully you will be seeing more updates here.

My greatest frustration with the SartoriaJ MSD sized men is their headsize. They seem to be a true size 6, which means most 5/6 wigs readily available pop off (even some of the SJ wigs I've gotten!) and most 6/7's are too big. The one Tyghan is wearing here is the best of the many wigs I've tried on him so far. It's a Jinsun (sp?) wig in size 6/7. Its the one he will keep for now until I can possible find something I like better for him. His lovely tunic is from my friend Robyn (Period Threads).

V'lane

 I've really neglected my BJD's the past couple of years, as I've found myself back in the 12" fashion doll world. I still do love my elven crew though, and need to make some more time to photograph them again. With SartoriaJ's release of elves this month, I've been inspired to play again, and took the time to get V'lane out for some new photos. 

V'lane has come into his own a bit since I finally found some eyes and a wig that work for him.  I haven't figured out his place in my elven world, but I am finally quite pleased with is look.

I really need to get back to thinking about the Glade stories, and photographing the crew more.
