late night.

late night sewing.
busy working on one wig commission, and might at least start on another depending on how late it is when I finish this one.
I'm also working my way through the seasons of Being Human (UK) 'cause a few different friends had insisted that I should give it a second chance, and am currently halfway through the third season.
the first time I tried to watch it I got really turned off of it after just a couple episodes 'cause I just really didn't like Annie, and she bugged me enough that I just couldn't really get past it.
but this time around I decided to stick it out and I feel like she got less annoying as things went on; and I really do like other things about the series so I'm glad I gave it another shot.
it's turning out to be a lot different than the American version than I thought it'd be.
I'd say that they do sort of follow the same general plot line to an extent, but there are a lot of things that are really different too; and even some things that are done in both storylines but in different order or are handled differently.
over all from where I'm at in the series now, having seen all of the American version and most of the UK version, I'd say that I do like both pretty equally for various reasons.

oh, and I signed up for a trial of hulu plus to watch it 'cause; but I definitely won't actually be paying for the service after the trial is up.
it costs as much per month as netflix, but it's still got stupid commercials :/
I don't know if the commercials are because it's a trial, but that makes no sense 'cause isn't the point of a trial to actually try the service as it is when you pay for it; so I figure that the commercials are normal.
but why in the world are the commercials on a service that you pay for, that's kind of a rip off in my opinion.
so yeah, I guess it's sort of convenient, but netflix is a whole lot better so if I were to go back to paying for one or the other it'd definitely be netflix

wigs wigs wigs!

now that the birthday project is all over, I've had to get busy on the backlog of commissions that I'd put on the back burner so I could work on my personal project.
I'm not by any means done, but I've busted out three wigs in the past two days.
one is the last of fee's wigs, one is a very late christmas present for a friend, and one is a commission for someone on dA.

wiiiiiiig

rainbow dash? xD

these are the last of the wigs from the current commission list that I'll be doing for a bit.
I've still got a few more on the list, but I've got to wait on fur for all of those before I can get started on any of them.

busybusybusy!

pretty much finished up painting the dresser/counter so later I'll be adding the scrapbook paper to decorate it.
I'm also going to cut and put together the pieces for the door frame and paint them after I figure out how big the door frame needs to be.
then I want to try and start putting together some of the little knick-knack bits like little packs of guitar picks, packages of guitar string, and other various little "impulse buy" type stuff that's generally found around the counter area in music shops.
and I need to work on some more flyers for the bulletin board 'cause I've only got one done so far xD

finally got shipping notice from my fur supplier for the fur that I ordered for Fee's last wig and a wig for another friend. it should have shipped nearly two weeks ago, so I'm kind of annoyed; but at least it's finally on it's way now.

and in other news, I'm getting a blythe :D
my feebb has been nice enough to trade me an sbl silver snow that's in need of some serious love.
I'm planning on doing a full custom.
mohair reroot, new chips, gaze correct, repaint, and I'm probably going to stick her on a pure neemo advance flection body because I like the look of them and I'd like to have the added poseability.
this will be my first attempt at a blythe custom, and it's  probably going to be a long process 'cause all the bits and pieces are looking more expensive than I'd thought they might be; but I'm excited about her none the less.

+2 productivity!

finally finished up the last two of fee's wigs that I had fur for.
hopefully the place where I get my fur will get back to me soon about why the stuff for her last one still hasn't shipped so I can get that one done too 'cause it's starting to stress me out.

this one is pukifee size.
it's meant to have a straight fringe, but I'm leaving it up to fee to cut it 'cause I know she prefers to cut it on the head it's for.

and this one is for a yo-sd size doll, but pan has to model since she's the closest size head that I have that's not too big.
she's swimming in it so it looks crazy fluffy, but I think you get the idea xD

 the back has a green under-layer with flashes of blonde on both sides. 


now that those are done I'm going to try and bust out the three tutu commissions that I need to get done so that I can feel less horrible about wanting to work on my not so super secret project.
I'm excited to start working on the music shop set since I picked up some of the things for it yesterday, but working on personal projects when I have stuff that people have paid me to do still waiting always makes me feel bad.

busy @.@

I procrastinated for the better part of the day 'cause I was just super tired from staying up until obnoxious hours of the morning yesterday, plus allergies have been kicking my ass this week.
but tonight I busted out two of the four wigs I'm working on for fee right now, and finished the one that I'd gotten mostly done yesterday.

I'm really happy with how the rainbow-y one turned out.
and everyone seems to really like it, so yay for that.

now I just have to wait for the fur for the last one to get here so I can get done with it too.

so, tomorrow I'm going to finish up the two wigs that I got mostly done tonight.
and hopefully get done with a few tutu commissions that I have lined up just so that those are out of the way before the fur for fee's last wig as well as fur for another commission comes in the mail.

sleep is for the weak...

had to stay up until 5-ish to make sure my brother woke up to go do army stuff.
was busy finishing up the first of what will probably be many tiny rainbow wigs xD
so now it's edging towards 7am and this is the disaster area currently occupying my bed.

and chibi!bb wig plans are under way. 
now to clean all this crap up so I can pass the hell out

workworkwork!

finally for real trying to be productive and bust out at least one of fee's wigs tonight.
I made the prototype for the pukifee size one 'cause I needed to test the pattern to make sure it's the right size since pan's wig is actually too big so I didn't want to use the same pattern I'd used for hers. I gave it a quick wash 'cause I'd brushed the fur that I used for one side of it and it looked awkward, so now I'm waiting for it to dry so I can try it on her and then get to work on the actual wig that size if it's okay.
and I cut out the pieces for what's probably the most complicated of the 4 that I'm doing for fee right now. hopefully it's going to turn out awesome though. and I think that if I can manage this one then chibi!bb wigs will be a go, so that's good.
here's a preview picture of the complicated one.
crappy cellphone picture washed the colors out, they're much more pretty and vibrant in person.

and just so you know, the measurements beside it are in inches. so that gives you a clue as to how tiny it is xD

productivity!

woo late night pattern making.
finally trying to get some work done on my feebb's wig commission.
I feel like it's taking me an obnoxiously long time to get going on them, and I really really hate making people wait any longer than I have to >.<
I'm really hoping to get at least the ones that I already have the fur for done this week though; and hopefully the fur for the other one should be here soon-ish so I can get that one done too.
I also have a couple of tutu commissions that I need to get done, but I don't think I'm going to work on those tonight 'cause I prefer to do tutus in one sitting and it's already 2am; so I'll probably get started on those tomorrow.
