I got a new camera today! 🙂
It’s a Sony α5000. My old Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H3 has been with me for at least 8 years and the picture quality has started deteriorating. It still functions perfectly well, but the pictures are way more grainy and soft, and it needs a lot more light to be able to bring objects to focus.
I
can’t wait to try the new one out. I just have to get a new memory card for it, I didn’t realize the old one isn’t compatible… I guess you can’t think about everything.
Now to the doll plans..!
I have been waiting for my Simply Divine Thomas since the first half of July and I’m slowly beginning to wonder how much longer it will take. I’m prepared to wait a few months, but it seems (according to Simply Divine’s feedback on Etsy) that most people received theirs in a really short time, in just a few weeks.
I’ve already got him a wig and eyes and even a name: Joseph. He is probably going on an Akagidoll 72cm body, but he will have to float around a while ’til I get the money to get one. (Taking out more student loan is looking more and more inviting…)
The other guy I’m waiting for is the dreamy Dollshe 28M Classic Rey Lewis. I’ve adored the 28M bodies for a long time, but neither of the heads available appealed to me much. Rey Lewis is perfect though, and with the discounted price I almost didn’t feel bad for purchasing him. He is still 2 months away, so I’m trying not to think about him too much.
Apart from those dudes, my smallest boy is waiting around without legs for Milliput to arrive so I can mod his Soom Ai hooves.
Here you can see how badly they fit! He was able to stand with careful posing. The legs are a yellowed Soom Cream White and he is a yellowed Iplehouse Normal Skin(I think). I painted the legs white with acrylic paint and blushed the hoof-parts with pastels.
He will be a deer boy and his name is Poro, after my ingeniously named old OC who was a reindeer called Poro. I have a head band with antlers for him, but I’m not sure if I’ll make my own antlers from Milliput or Fimo. I’ll be making a more detailed post about modding the legs and maybe a review about the head band.
