New Lashes in Stock

I just got a large shipment of lashes in from Dollmore and updated my Lash Page here. They started carrying some realistic looking lashes with beautiful soft looking fibers in a soft brown and black. The item name starts with BDG and they come in two lengths. The fibers are very short so they're perfect for all the realistic sculpts I've been painting as well as for smaller dolls like pukipukis.



I also picked up a few of old design they had around for a while called A4 and A6. They only had the style A6 in black. I've used the white version in the Unoa Celestial Moon commission. It's nice and short with a more stylized look than the BDG styles so it works well with more stylized faceups. The fibers on these are graduated with the ends being shorter and the middle being longer. The style is exactly like the ones from ForMyDoll but I think there is more quality control with these since I don't see variation in the fiber pattern the way I do in the FMD lashes. They work well for 1/6 to 1/3 dolls as well as some smaller dolls like Pukifees.



A4 came in brown and black and is a nice graduated lash (shorter fibers at one end and longer on the opposite end). The fibers are beautifully lush but not over the top so your doll looks like they have natural mascara on but do not look as heavy or dolly as the super heavy and curly Switch lashes. Don't get me wrong. I love the Switch lashes but on a realistic faceup and sculpt they tend to look overdone. The A4 works well on 1/6 to 1/3 scale dolls.




That's it for now! I will be using some of these new lashes to finish of August commissions. I'm pretty picky about lashes so I'm glad I was able to get these. I regret getting some of the cheaper strip lashes now. At the time they were the best ones around but now I have a bunch that I probably wont use and they weren't cheap. I will probably include them in a give away. They were my favorites when I first started and I really recommend them for beginners because the lash line is a very soft thin cord so the eyelashes don't pop out when you try to apply them. The fibers are thin but they don't come to a point the way the fancier more expensive ones do so they take away from the realism of realistic faces. They still look great in more stylized dolls but considering they only cost a dollar less than the expensive pairs most ppl who commission me probably will not request them. Anyway...I guess that means a giveaway soon~

Birthday Weekend

My birthday is a Palindrome this year! It's on 11-22-11 but I celebrated with some friends this Saturday to avoid Thanksgiving weekend. I was still fairly productive though. I finished two commissions and worked on my own Custom House Prayer Choa. Here are some pics. The commissions turned out fairly well but I only took pictures of one so far. This is Eden redone. You will remember her from before.

Lashes Available

Instock Eyelashes

$1/pr : 

So far my favorite for a natural look on every size except for SD. They are shorter and sparser so they lend themselves well to a natural look on smaller dolls. The binding is exceptionally soft and thin so it isn't distracting at all and conforms well to the eye shape.



I also layer two layers for a lusher look. Since they don't come in a dark brown color, I layered Black and Lt. Brown for this MSD below. As you can see, they look soft and natural. A request for a layered look will be $2.



A variation on the lashes above with gathered groups of lashes is also available.





$2.50/pr :

Sorry for the slight markup in price from the dollmore site. It is to cover shipping expenses. At some point I will buy a bunch of lashes at once if there is enough demand so that I can get free shipping but for now I only get about 10 prs at a time.






$3.50 /pr : 

Hug me lashes from Switch. Only Heavy black available. (Note: There is a limited amount of lashes  they allow you to order at a time and there is no free shipping which is why I charge so much for these.)




$4 /pr : 

Leeke lashes. Again, since I only bought a few pairs of these, the markup is just to cover shipping costs.
